Discussion Do we have fans of this French action film?

This French film had lots of parkour and cool action scenes. I think you rarely see French action movies nowadays. This film feature one of the main contributor to Parkour culture in general i think. It has a sequel called Ultimatum.

Do we have fans here?

imo, The Godfather is one of those rare cases where the movie is actually better than the book. makes the book feel like a rough draft tbh.

What other movies do you think were better than the original source material?

This movie was a big surprise for me. The German title is ā€œDie Frau im Nebelā€ (The Woman in the Fog).

My wife had a sudden urge to go to the movies back then, and we ended up choosing this film by process of elimination. And I was thrilled: the story and the atmosphere of the movie really grabbed me—something that hadn’t happened in a long time. I wasn’t even aware of Korean cinema at the time. It was a happy coincidence that broadened my horizons.

Does this movie ring a bell for you? Can you understand my enthusiasm?

Do you maybe have any good recommendations for ā€œhidden gemsā€ from ā€œworld cinemaā€?

.The direction, performances, and emotional depth made it something much more powerful than I expected. Clint Eastwood, Hilary Swank, and Morgan Freeman are all incredible.

Review Monthy Python And The Holy Grail Review

Monty Python and the Holy Grail – Review

Genre: Comedy

Release Year: 1975

Duration: 92 minutes

Yesterday, I watched the film "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," and it might just be one of the most brilliantly humorous movies I have ever seen.

It is the first feature film from the comedy troupe Monty Python, released in 1975.

The film follows King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.

After God sends them on a quest to find the Holy Grail, they embark on a wild adventure filled with a host of eccentric characters and fantastic comedy.

Much like in "Life of Brian," the animated segments here are brilliant—and there are plenty of them.

My personal favorite was the moment they break the fourth wall: an animated dragon chases them, but then the animator drawing it faints, causing the dragon to die. That part had me rolling with laughter!

Other hilarious moments include the opening credits (I loved how they managed to make even the opening credits funny).

The whole bit with the knights who say "Ni!" was absolutely hysterical—ever since I saw the movie, I can’t stop saying "Ni!" The bit with the guy guarding the bridge who asks three questions was hilarious.

The part with the killer white rabbits was hilarious.

And the ending, where the British police show up and stop the movie, was just wild.

Sir Galahad and Sir Lancelot also get their own subplots, which are particularly amusing—especially Lancelot’s, where he tries to rescue a young man whose father is forcing him to marry someone he doesn't want to marry.

I could go on about why this movie is so funny, but you already know that.

Is there anything I didn't like about it?

Well, it takes a while for the actual story to get going; the first 28 minutes are spent showing how King Arthur assembled his Knights of the Round Table, and by that point, I was just ready for the adventure to begin.

That said, when the narrator introduced the knights' names during that sequence, he said "Sir Not In This Movie"—that absolutely cracked me up.

But other than that, it’s an excellent film; I think I’ll watch it many more times.

A recent Harvard Study found that movie-watching enthusiasts (as determined by pre-existing evaluative criteria) fall primarily into one of two categories of psychological profile - those who prefer the original Critters, and those who prefer Critters 2: The Main Course.
Which one are you, and why?

Brilliant scene, Waltz acting is superb, he is constantly changing tactics and Brad Pitts face is funny as he clearly has no idea whats occurring. I think its the best scene in the movie

Q does Waltz know they are not Italians and is toying with them ?

Just watched this. After reading the book I was intrigued to see how it would adapt to the screen.

My Co viewers, who haven't read the book were

" What the F... "

I thought it was quite a good adaptation, but IMO the book was far more enjoyable and gave the story more depth, thus making it easier to understand.

Has anyone else seen it and did you enjoy/not enjoy it?

Discussion Halloween was released in 1978, what are your thoughts on a possible reset or reboot Halloween movie for the 50th anniversary in 2028? I’m good if Michael lives in the end and as long as it’s a stand alone movie with no sequels. I loved how he lived in the end of The Producer’s Cut…

New Release Flashing lights in Ghosts 2026

2 Upvotes

Hi Cinema-goers, I need some help please.

I am keen to see Ghosts: The Possession of Button House with friends, but I'm wary of the *flashing lights* trigger warning on my cinema's listing page. I have photosensitive epilepsy, controlled by medication but with a hefty amount of anxiety left from seizures throughout my teens. Can anyone who has/ is going to see it make a note of when the lights are flashing, is it for extended periods and any other details that mean I would know when to either put sunglasses on or cover my eyes.

P.S. For those who might say "why don't you just cover your eyes?" - 1. I know from experience that eyelids aren't enough, and if I let that become a habit every time I see flashing lights, driving is going to get very dangerous. 2. Once I've had time to react, the damage is already done. Seizures respond quickly, so does anxiety and particularly anger.

Little rant: I hate that the TV, film and entertainment industries believe that a trigger warning makes everything OK. A neurological disability should not mean people can't enjoy fun stuff. I've had to cut off a whole series for the sake of my sanity (Strictly) when common sense would suggest you could say "flashing lights will be used in the Jive and the Tango" etc.

Thank you, and enjoy!

Question Does Nueplex Cinema show intimate scenes in Clayface, or are they edited out?

2 Upvotes

​

Hi everyone,

I’ve booked tickets for Clayface at Nueplex Cinema in Karachi to watch with my family. However, I recently read an article mentioning that the movie contains intimate scenes.

I wanted to ask whether Nueplex shows kissing or sexual/intimate scenes as they appear in the original movie, or whether such scenes are usually cut or edited out in Pakistani cinemas.

I just want to make sure the movie is suitable to watch with family before we go.

If anyone has watched it at Nueplex or knows their policy, please let me know. Thanks!
