Am I the only one that didn't feel the runtime? I'm not joking when I say it felt like a normal-length movie once it had finished - all thanks to how riveting every second was I guess. But I also just cannot imagine any of this cut out.
I would say this is a perfect film, and Scorsese is just too much of a veteran at this point - this man is undoubtedly one of the greatest directors in all of cinema.
Loved how subdued everything was played in this one, so much so that you forget how dark it is at some points. It's subtly complex in pure Scorsese fashion but tells the seemingly well-researched tale of a brutally simple true story about 1920's greed. It even feels like so many of Scorsese's gangster films turned completely on its head. I love how Marty's films have aged and matured along with him.
This should be required viewing for every citizen of Russia right now, even though many will disregard it all as fake.
So.
I cried.
A lot.
And it made me so f mad and angry.. I will not be having a kid for a long time yet..
Ah! Mads: a delight to watch as always.
The severity of this film smashes on the shoulder. Emotionally strong impact on the viewer. Great climate, the role of the main and ending. Strong study of social ostracism.
Man likes dogs, shooting guns, and friends. He faces an old enemy, stairs.
Ingrid Bergman was absolutely one of the best actresses ever and this movie was one of her best. Charles Boyer was a romantic good guy in most movies so this was his chance to break his normal roles.
The sad part is that this movie plot takes place everyday in someone's home even now more than 70 years later. It may cut close to home for some, but the most pivotal take away is that Bergman was chosen for the role and won an Oscar for it because it showed how a strong woman could easily be fooled if she has no lifeline to people outside the abusive home.
I put off watching this for too long. Hilarious and sometimes insightful, this satire continues to entertain and engage over eighty years later.
American Movies: Here's the formula for a money making flick.
South Korean Cinema: What if we want to break the rules?
American Movies: Why tf would you do that?
South Korean Cinema: Because #TheChaser
The hero is a pimp, the killer uses a chisel and all the wrong people die. South Korean cinema is as hot as well-constructed flame on intricate skin.
Didn't know what to expect, but it was one of the funniest movies I have seen in a very long time.
Fun solid story and plot and great acting.
So they call me "concentration camp" Ehrhardt
I died laughing, amazing movie!
I'm just here, still wondering why the chandelier...
really good and way better than what the trailer makes you think so. both main actors have great chemistry and I had a great time watching it. plus it's only 90 minutes so that def helps
JASON STATHAM'S DEVIATED SEPTUM CAN WITHSTAND UP TO 20 ATMOSPHERES OF PRESSURE
Legend has it, that the script took forever to finish. Every time they finished a line, it disappeared
Breakfast at Tiffany's was great. Equal parts charming and poignant, it was heaps of fun and Audrey Hepburn was a delight to watch. The rest of the cast was mostly great too, with the notable exception of a ridiculously racist Japanese caricature that nobody should have ever approved. That's one really patient taxi driver at the end.
Absolutely fantastic. A well-executed original idea, packed with brilliant performances, impactful suspense, and many absurd laugh-out-loud moments.
One of the best anti-war movies of all time. I was shaking and had heart racing the whole run-time.
One of the most memorable cinema-experiences I ever had. After the credits rolled, no one made a move for two minutes. Everyone sat quietly and thought about what they had seen. At one point early in the movie almost everyone had also stopped eating their popcorn.
Watch it in Cinema if you can. Watch it in german if you can. Watch it in german with subtitles if you must. Or wait for it's Netflix-Release. But watch "All Quiet on the Western Front" no matter what. And learn from it.
One of the most intense movies you'll ever see.
In this mocumentary you will learn that 1+1=7 and that there is not a conspiracy theory that MAGA people won't fall for!
Ok so it's not a 10..but they still got it. It was bittersweet watching the gang..nostalgic too...bro we were dyin rollin watching these fools on a dubbed cky VHS tape. Before my 20 year old kid was even born. Shit we was kids..20 plus years have gone by and I still laughed out loud in the theater so thank you Johnny and crew..we have watched so many hours of you guys over the years and various shows..git your shit together Bam.. but yeah man, it's not a 10 but it was hella fun to watch with my family and it Absolutely sucks that there may never be another
I haven't laughed and cringed this hard in a while.
I love these idiots.
The original Kingsman were action packed fun movies that were very entertaining and surprising with some very colorful characters, and I had the same expectations for The Kings Man but they just took too a historical route which made it too long to get to the origins of the Kings Man - I wanted to love the movie, and enjoyed the first too and this was fun but not nearly as good and funny as the originals, that's the simplest way to put it.
Worth the wait. (I have summed up this film in three words but unfortunately trackt will not allow such concise and to-the-point ‘comments’
It’s not even called a review, it’s called a comment, and I know of lots of comments that are 5 words or less, like “no comment” - anyway, sorry about the rant but it’s required for comments on here )
I highly recommend this documentary, it is a tough watch but opens eyes and shows us in the West how lucky we are! I'm sure this will change the thoughts of many. Please watch until the end.....
Pretty damn spot-on. Definitely worth the watch, despite perhaps being released a little too late.
I loved Brooker's Wipes, which seemed to balance genuine insight about the nature of the news with cutting satire, but this is a highly watered down version of that which almost misses the point of what makes the Wipe series work. The jokes are flat, its targets fairly obvious, with celebrities over-performing their delivery, and it doesn't really move beyond broad brushed stereotypes.
Greta Gerwig is such a talented Writer, Director, and Actor. I was so excited to see this movie and was not disappointed. I look forward to everything Greta does and can’t wait to see what’s next.
Lady Bird is a must see in theaters!
Not great by any critical standards, but if you love music and Rock'n'Roll you'll love this movie, no doubt. It doesn't have a lot going for it but it successfully encompasses the joy of music, and all that comes with it.
Oh how I wanted to love this movie. I am generally a fan of Richard Curtis' work and I love the cast. Why the hell is this movie more than two hours? They partied a lot. We get it. People loved rock and roll - got that too. Ugh.... such a waste. I could watch Nighy and Hoffman in just about anything.... they were completely wasted in this film.

I feel like just about everyone will connect with this movie in some way. It's funny, sad, charming and honest. Saoirse Ronan's performance is one of the best of the year. Her chemistry with Laurie Metcalf makes the Mother/Daughter relationship really work. Lucas Hedges and Tracy Letts are both fantastic too. I think every kid in high school should watch this movie.
Edit: I saw this again and it is still my favorite of the Oscar nominations. It really has a way to make you feel like your in high school again. Makes you realize how much you parents do for you and how much I love mine.
Edit 2: I watched this again, twice in two days, this time with my parents. My dad was cracking up at every time Lady Bird was shit talking her mom while my mom didn't think it was that funny. He also said some of the dad's lines literally right before he said them. After it ended my mom said "That's it? I thought she was going to come back and write her mom a check."
Boseman is fast becoming one of the finest actors of this generation, and he brings to life one chapter of Marshall's career with aplomb. Credit to both men - a celebrated and accomplished lawyer, and the actor who plays him. A good film.
