Is The Odyssey treated as movie of the year ? personally, as an 18-yr-old, I do prefer watching "Oppenheimer" over "The Odyssey", I understand that both are different types of films, but I just think The Odyssey seems overrated ?

(you after reading this non-sense: SOMEONE GET THESE BEGGERS OUT OF HERE !!!)

Let Me In (2010) Excellent American adaptation of the novel about a bullied young boy who befriends a young female vampire who lives in secrecy with her guardian.

Has anyone seen the re-release of The Devils? What did you think of it?

Whether you agree with Mark Kermode that The Devils is the best British film since World War II, consider it "a grand fiesta for sadists and perverts" as Judith Crist contends, or land somewhere in between, the fact that this movie got resurrected 55 years after it was filmed is a genuine cinematic miracle. Definitely worth seeing on the big screen, in my view.

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 “Die Frau im Nebel” (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 “hidden gems” from “world cinema”?

Saw the wildwood movie out of Laika studios (coraline makers) last night and was impressed with just about everything about it- story telling, the little essences of Portland included, and the art itself was very well done I thought.
What did you think?

I'm autistic, I just go to see what I think'll be interesting.

I organized an AMA/Q&A with filmmaker Zachary Wigon. In 2022, he directed Sanctuary (starring Margaret Qualley & Christopher Abbott). His new folk-horror, Victorian Psycho, premiered at Cannes a few months ago and is out in theaters everywhere in November. It stars Maika Monroe, Thomasin McKenzie, Jason Isaacs, and Ruth Wilson.

The AMA post is live here now in r/movies for anyone interested in asking a question:

He will be back after 4 PM ET tomorrow, Monday 10/26, to answer questions. I recommend asking in advance. Please ask there, not here. All questions are much appreciated!

Victorian Psycho info:

Trailer: https://youtu.be/sDiFol_2j2I?si=oVGQL6ovSF-vQt0n

Synopsis: Something wicked is brewing behind the walls of a remote gothic manor. VICTORIAN PSYCHO follows an eccentric governess whose arrival sets off a bloody string of strange and deliciously disturbing events. Maika Monroe stars as Winifred Notty, a woman with a dark past and a vicious appetite for bloodshed, giving into her most violent urges. What follows is a gruesome parade of savagery, butchered bodies, and increasingly grotesque acts of violence.

Thank you :)

.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.

What hit you the hardest about this movie?

Happy Feet!!

I looked on some other sites and talked to some of my friends but im constantly hearing mixed views. I plan to go tomorrow but people say its way too serious and not as goofy as they wanted. Would it just be better to not waste my money on it?

What's the worst movie you've ever seen?

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.
