Am I the only person on earth that liked Last Days ?

I loved Paranoid Park too.

 

[Jill Hives]

Paranoid Park was good, sucker for skating shots.

Tarantino -thought Django was easily his worst movie. Though, I've never watched Death Proof.

Pulp Fiction - 10
Four Rooms - 2
Jackie Brown - 9
Kill Bill - 8
Kill Bill Vol 2 - 8
Death Proof - 4
Inglorious Bastards - 9
Django Unchained - 9


To be fair I'm a total sucker for Tarantino, I love his sheer bravado and his "I do not give one fuck what you think" attitude. The only people that come close to him on that score are David Lynch, Terry Gilliam ,Werner Herzog and Harmonie Korine and to be fair when they get it wrong, yeesh.

so in that spirit

Public Enemies wasn't that bad, it wasn't great and looked a bit weird because if the hi def camera look not suiting the 1930s aesthetic but over all it's not the worst movie ever.

Where as Titanic is the worst movie ever.

Aliens would only get a 7 from me The Abyss is way better and gets a 9.

I'd give The Insider an 8.5 or maybe a 9. Thought it was riveting.

Yeah actually, me too, didn't notice that before. Is that the last time Russel Crowe was good in a film ?

I thought it was awful. Marie Antoinette isn't a musical. Kirsten Dunst plays the titular queen of condescension to the tunes of Joy Division/New Order. The idea is to depict her sort of like a contemporary teenager, a bit naive, a bit spoilt. Which is kind of an interesting idea but can be as annoying as my super sweet sixteen or somesuch at times and dull as fuck at others. Jason Schwartzman is pretty good in it though.

Weird, why did I think that was a musical? It's why I avoided it. Still had no idea it was one of her movies though. I'll have to check it out.

A lot was made of the music by critics. A costume period drama with a load of 80s tunes grated with lots of people. The idea was that she wanted it to be fun for a younger audience and made use of all the stuff she listened to as a teenager. Hardly a must-see, just so you know
