AIR sucked and felt completely phoned in and devoid of soul
Most recent movies suck big time the last good movie I watched was Blow Out (1981) with John Travolta. Half the movies I start watching these days I can't even get halfway through the movie... might be partly my fault but maybe these guys need to make better movies.
There are plenty of good movies released recently, it’s a you thing
Which ones are good in your opinion? As far as modern day movies I liked some of the Safdie brothers movies I saw within the past couple of years... who else is making good movies right now?
Safdies are great. Banshees of Inisheerin was excellent, really enjoyed Barbarian, Promising Young Woman, Parasite, Triangle of Sadness, All Quiet on the Western Front to name a few.
I think horror/thrillers are having a renaissance right now with A24 (Midsommar, Hereditary) and some other studios. Also Bodies, Bodies, Bodies was a solid meta movie. Evil Dead Rise was also great.
Also a big fan of Ridley Scott and I’m excited for his Napoleon film coming out in November.
If we expand out to the past 10 years, Neo Westerns also been excellent. Hell or High Water and Sicario are some of my all time favorite films.
Marvel is definitely dying in favor of more classic Blockbusters like Top Gun, Dungeons and Dragons, Barbie, Mission Impossible.
I’m a huge cinephile so I can usually find something to enjoy out of a film as long as it’s actually trying and not just a cash grab. Hell I can even enjoy a cash grab if they’re self aware of the shamelessness.
Once Upon A Time in Hollywood
Shit was so boring, stopped watching halfway through. 70% of the movie is just caddies revving up their engines and loud 60s music.
Ending was lit It was an artsy movie lol
While it's not Tarantino's best, it's definitely not a boring film. Especially the climax with the rewritten history of the Tate murder situation. More of a Michael Bay or Marvel fan, I'm guessing?
Passive aggressive much? I liked Once Upon a Time but a lot of Tarantino's body of work is just unwatchable 'artsy' gorefests
It’s a Tarantino Hangout movie, kind of like Dazed and Confused. Nothing really happens, you’re just supposed to enjoy sitting around some interesting characters and kind of living their life for a few hours. Not for everyone but I enjoyed it. Climax was great.
Indiana Jones couldn’t even finish it. They massacred Indie
Every Star Wars movie after episode 7
I thought the first 6 movies were much better than the next 6 or how ever many came after that.
Yeah I don’t care how the most recent 6 films were.
I’ve probably watched the first 6 movies enough times as a kid that I’ve memorized the words to every main character’s script lol
I liked Rogue One.
I remember it being great but I'd have to watch it again to fully remember it
Rogue One was great though, third best SW movie after IV and V. That along with Andor are the only good things Disney did to the IP.
Mandalorian is ok, but Andor is exceptionally good for 1) a Disney show, and B. a sci-fi show in general.
I saw one of those highly publicized B movies that was terrible. I don’t really remember the name - maybe it was Cocaine Bear or something.
The trailer was way better than the movie
The Many Saints of Newark.
I still thought it was decent because it gave us some new Sopranos universe content, but man, it just didn't sit right. Suffered from the same problem as the Star Wars sequels where they have too many references to the originals (keeping Luke and Han Solo around, for example) and this gets in the way of them introducing new characters or plots. My parents who aren't Sopranos fans but have a general idea of who Tony is liked the movie a lot more than me, probably because all the desperate fan service went over their heads.
Pacific Rim 2. That had so much potential. I learned how poorly written/rushed story can impact a movie.
I thought Tenet was way too difficult to follow for the bulk of the movie, I thought it underwhelmed in terms of Christopher Nolan standards.
I kinda felt the same way, but also it just made me wonder if my comprehension skills got worse or something lol. That's the thing with Nolan movies, you don't really know if it's just you being dense.
I got into with a friend over this, I feel like it was really grasping at straws, especially with making the villain not seem that bad, just a general Russian baddie with a yacht.
Sharknado.
Never seen such crap but they even made some follow ups on this. If you’re completely done with life, you might enjoy it
After how amazing Thor: Ragnarok was, I was really disappointed by Love & Thunder.
65. I have been waiting my entire life for a high budget, rated R dino horror. When I initially heard Adam Driver was on the project a year before they started marketing the film I was ecstatic...
It ended up being complete dogshit!
Joker - felt like a movie about mental health that unnecessarily used the Batman movie universe for no reason…I just can’t ever imagine Arthur Fleck as the “clown prince of crime.” Also didn’t like how much it ripped off Taxi Driver and King of Comedy and it was soooo on the nose. When joker says “what do you get when you cross a mentally ill loner with a society that abandons him…” like wow way to literally state the entire purpose of the movie as if the entire audience is too stupid to get it.
Yeah Joker sucked.
On a related note, the Robert Pattinson Batman was spectacularly awful, as well.
damn gotta disagree with that, I really enjoyed it. Some of the Riddler twitch stream incel stuff felt a little forced, but I thought it was overall a pretty unique take on Batman with some great performances. And I love the dark rainy atmosphere of the film.
Padre Pio. Was supposed to be movie about a great saint of the church for hardcore catholics. Ended up having sacriligious scenes and not really even being about the saint. Plenty of catholic publications spoke out against it although everyone was originally very excited with the release, especially with Shia Labeouf playing the lead role.
oh damn I forgot about that one, I really like his interview with Bishop Barron. Have you seen Nefarious? That was really well done imo.
