just wondering whats the best movie you have seen recently. went to see meet the fockers last night and although funny at times thought all the funny bits i had already seen in the trailers
'Best film I've seen recently'? As in the last 12 months or last 12 days?
For the former - 'City of God'. Just visceral, raw cinema beautifuly paced and acted, with wonderful characters and a gut-reaching storyline.
For the latter - 'The Incredibles'. Hilarious start to finish, and smarter, sharper and more subversive than any Disney film has a right to be: 'Saying everybodys special is just another was of saying nobodys special'. Pixar does Nietzsche...
Or, 'Best film ever, which I just happened to have watched again for the n'th time recently'?
If so, then so many to choose... Welles, Scorsese, Soderbergh, Almodovar, Tarantino, Lars von Trier, Kurosawa...
I'd genuinely have to go for a dead heat between 'Ferris Bueller' and 'Dumb and Dumber'.
Cheers
Cock of the North
Dirty Dancing
or
any of the Die hard trilogy or Lethal Weapon series
Like Freckle, the Die Hard trilogy is a classic, I remember sitting in cinema watching the first....bloody briliant!!!!!
But im also a fan of the old classic horror films of the 70's before censorship caught up with the release of the video...
Cannabal Holocaust
Zombie appocolipse
Exorcist
but to name a few......
and I highly recommend to anyone when it is released soon to see Exorcist The beginning!!
