WHAT THE ###### 

 

Awesome movie, but does require more than one sitting :laugh:

 

Hahahahah ! I've seen it 5 or 6 times, it's like a good music album, you can listen to it every now and then without feeling bored !

 

Now it's time for Inland Empire and Lost Highway ! :P

The Signal (2014)

 

6.5/10

 

I was about to give it a 7 when they pulled a Dark City 2.0 on me. Really? I mean honestly i realize that there's not an infinite number of stories and eventually one has to get inspiration form other works but the end is a total ripoff of Dark City. Interesting work from the director though i'll keep an eye on him with a better script and a bigger budget he might be able to do something really good.

 

3 Days to Kill (2014)

 

6.5/10

 

Uneven movie. McG is quickly becoming the next Michal Bay/Roland Emmerich. He knows how to shoot a movie but that's about it. I guess not everyone is able to be the next Luc besson or James Cameron.

Ida (2013)

 

7/10

 

A good proof that you don't need explosions and lens flares all over the place to make a good movie. It is very very very slow paced but at the same time very short. Movie is 82 minutes only. But it's a good thing cause there's not a lot of meat around the bone. It's a very cold movie about a very cold era. No hollywood dramatization is to be found here despite the tragic story. Not a movie for everyone and while i can't say i really enjoyed it i can definitely applause the attempt of the director to do something different.

 

The Monuments Men (2014)

 

5.5/10

 

Hard to believe Clooney directed such a turd. His last movie The Ides of March was very good. Sad cause the subject was interesting.

well, yeah, i tried to show this movie that was translated, to a bunch of friends.  they were just not enjoying the dialog.    but since they speak bad engish, subtitles would not have helped.

again, my translation was way better.   hard to find a good translation, some are decent, but sometimes a 1 voice unofficial translation is much more watchable that multiple voice "official" translation...

3/5

I thought it was a well done movie, and I agree with this review. The sad part was it definitely could have been better, and focused more on the social aspects of the Purge. Here's hoping the Purge 3 (rumored to focus on the very first Purge), is much better.

 

Also, if anyone wants to hear the Purge version of "America", here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TrUzzG3SNk

I hope there is a Purge 3 and I was happy this was very much open world this time

4/5

 

2121 Jump Street :rofl:

 

yeah, they kept it going.   it is just as good at the original.  which means for a comedy about cops undercover in college, it is pretty funny :)  

don't come in with any other expectations though...

 

still, i though they might make the second one bad. and they did not. so hooray for them, i guess :huh:

X-Men Days of the future past 9/10 - Amazing movie the only one who stands against it is Guardians of the Galaxy 

 

 

yeah?   i might have to go see the guardians, while they are still on the big screen.   because i loved the days of future past!

Philomena (2013)

 

7.5/10

 

Nice drama without the usual hollywood dramatization. Movie is a little bit cold and short considering the subject matter imo. I think it could have been better without the forced not so funny humor and a little bit more backstory. They did cut too much imo.

 

Tracks (2013)

 

7/10

 

Good movie. Not as good as 127 hours but still watchable if you are into personal introspection type of movie.

    • LOL, expect to take you seriously? The $7k myth? Ignoring the BILLIONS Qatar spends every year to influence American politicians and universities? Claim terrorists are "journalists" when they are members of Hamas and even have Hamas funerals with their pictures in Hamas garb. "Snipe kids" when they don't, meanwhile the other side sends kids into battle (and their mothers praise their martyrdom) and uses them as human shields and their schools as rocket launch sites and entrances to their tunnels - which they took all their foreign aid to build at the expense of their people. Base their operations at hospitals - violating every rule of war and making said hospital legitimate military targets? AND THEY KILL LGBTQ+ PEOPLE - listen to their own testimonies themselves, their interviews on what they do to them! They're proud of it! Your talking points are all BS and you know it. Stop defending another Islamic dictatorship that uses terror as their primary policy.

    • We wrote about it here https://www.neowin.net/news/browser-vendors-pen-open-letter-to-microsoft-saying-enough-is-enough/ the open letter itself is here https://browserchoicealliance.org/open-letter/
    • Someone forgot to mention EDR in the title ? I think I will not click anymore on the articles written by this author. All are click bait.
    • Browser vendors including Chrome, Firefox, Brave, and Vivaldi have jointly written an open letter to Microsoft saying enough is enough regarding Edge being pushed on Windows users without consent. Microsoft makes it difficult to change the default browser, promotes Edge throughout Windows 11, and has made the uninstall process unnecessarily complicated compared to other apps. Does anyone have more details on what exactly the open letter demands and whether any regulatory action is being considered? Also curious whether this could lead to antitrust investigations similar to what happened with Internet Explorer back in the day. Would love to hear from anyone following this closely.
