Nasty, I completely agree with your thoughts on "The Last Samurai". It has always been one of my favorite movies & it is Tom Cruise's best. The actors & actresses in this movie all did an amazing job. It's a beautiful story & it makes me cry everytime I watch it. One of the best movies ever made! Reply #45. Mar 03 13, 2:53 PM |

Nasty, have you seen "Looper" yet, with Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Bruce Willis? I watched "Looper" and then "Flight" back-to-back, and I think I completely destroyed my adrenal glands! I plan to watch both of them again -- "Flight" was absolutely that good, and "Looper" was absolutely that confusing. I think I missed at least one "reality," and isn't that so annoying when that happens? It reminded me a little bit of "Inception," and every time I watch that one, I see something I missed the first time. I haven't seen "Zero Dark Thirty" yet, but "The Hurt Locker" is definitely one of my favorite films, ever. I love "The Last Samurai," too. I also love "The 13th Warrior." I am really enjoying your movie critiques, and I don't think I've disagreed with even one of them so far. Keep up the good work! Reply #46. Mar 05 13, 5:23 AM |

Hi Nasty, So... I watched "Looper" again, certain I had missed one "reality," and then I went to IMDB to read the Message Board posts on this film. A couple of hours and 20 pages of topics of posts later, but nowhere near completing reading all the posts, my brain was starting to go numb, so I stopped. I decided there were way too many holes in this film (that you could drive a truck through) and several red herrings, so when I arrived at the MB, it was interesting to discover how many people were in my camp, and how many almost-scary experts there are out there about time travel and space-time continuum, complete with one person who actually drew a diagram, with straws, explaining time travel, something either Old Joe or New Joe mentioned he didn't want to do when they met in the diner. It was one of the two "jokes" of the film, in fact. And then there were the multitudes who were so, so confused about Cid. In fact, "Cid" is the hottest topic on that MB, with many, many theories about just who/what and even "when" he is. Cid was the other "reality" I thought I might have missed, and I'm still a little uncertain about Cid. I might watch it again and this time, really focus on Cid. You have to admit, he is one amazing little actor. But the one film all the time travel experts kept recommending to the rest of us was "Primer." I've never heard of it, but I'm going to look into it. It seems to be the film all other sci/fi space travel films strive to reach, but apparently never do. Reply #49. Mar 12 13, 6:29 AM |

The above (which I have not seen), may well be an entertaining film if you suspend belief. Why? A warship, of any type, and of any nationality, is not a "debating society". Anyone senior to another, has to know that any order given, will be carried out.........NO WARSHIP could EVER function if orders were queried BEFORE being carried out. To do so is known as MUTINY........mutiny is not a thing viewed leniently. If the Captain gives an order, that order is carried out....full stop. Reply #55. Apr 25 13, 7:50 AM |

I couldn't help but notice your paragraph on "The Impossible" was a bit shorter than the rest. :P I really liked that one,, though I'd never see it again because it was far too sad and made me queasy at parts. ;) Reply #56. Apr 25 13, 8:43 AM |

Hi Nasty! I'm reading all the posts in your thread, and I might have a couple of films to ask about, recommend, and even warn you about, based on how awful I thought they were. Aren't movies fun? Love them, hate them, or completely ambivalent about them, it's always fun to talk about films, and especially fun right after you have seen them, and the MOST fun if you've just seen them together and get to go grab some food or a latte and talk about them for an hour or two. Or three. Reply #60. May 28 13, 1:31 AM |
