Movies Worth watching?

Started by Howard Beale3 pages

Last film I saw in theaters that is worth checking out would have to be....Milk. Wow it's been like 2 1/2 weeks since I've seen a good movie in a theater! That's really bad for someone who makes about 2 trips a week.

Just saw "The Crow". Holy crap, that movie is awesome! It's that one movie that takes the gothic feel and presents it in a colorful and crazy environment without it seeming stupid. It makes "Sin City" and "The Spirit" look like Scifi Channel Original Movies in comparison of effects. Brandon Lee's Crow may have been one of the best portrayals of any comic character in film, and is up there with the likes of Heath Ledger, Willem Dafoe, Alfred Molina, Robert Downey Jr., Tobey Macguire, and so on(too many to list) as one of my favorite comic book actors.

Honestly? I think you're overrating Lee and the film in general. That could be because I thought the film was terrible though. The Crow was one of the cheesiest movies I've seen lately. Very few redeeming qualities.

Actually i think the crow was a decent movie (not great i agree) but for its time i think this movie was quite good a bit cheesy but good.

Sin City is fantastic for effects, what are you on about... Sin City is a fantastic piece of film making. I adore The Crow but totally different in effects layout.

The Crow, for those who don't know, is getting a remake soon.

You may have probably watched it but I absolutely love Fight Club. It worth going and renting it.

No, buying! not renting. 😛

I was just thinking about it and i seen "the signal" in theaters... was this movie was supposed to be scary or funny? There is a part where they are all in this house at some kind of party that was hilarious! Did anyone else feel this way about that scene?

yeah dude. That really hurt the movie for me. It was a really decent movie but it didn't flow very well. The second act like you said came off to strong as a dark comedy where as the first portion very clearly established the movie as a something else.

That guy, the husband, or boyfriend. I swear that dude looks and acts a lot like Ryan Reynolds.

There were great movies before but I'm not sure if it works the old way. There are movies just for the name.

Hahaha i thought the same thing when i watched it! What was that guys name? he really did look just like Ryan Reynolds. I wish it would have picked either dark comedy or horror the mix killed it for me aswell

You should wait for the Watchmen and The Authority.
I'm betting those movies will be one of the best this year.
