Leaves too much unresolved at the end to be considered a great movie. It's like they thought: okay, the action's done, now let's go home.

Sci-fi/AI type movie. Bladerunner is a clear influence. It was alright, but not excellent. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1971325/ |

^ Each to their own I guess. I'm rather fond of it personally and consider it one of Scorsese's most underrated films.

I know this is considered a Classic by many, but to me it was a pretty underwhelming experience given the praise it usually receives. I found myself a Little bored along the way: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1130884/ |

Not half as funny as I hoped it would be, but it had its moments:

Psychological thriller that combines what might be a standard stalker plot with a secondary plot that the main character accidentally gets herself confirmed in a behavioural institution after signing some 'routine' forms after just going there to talk to a counsellor about her problems. She ends up locked in this place with her stalker and naturally no one believes her and the police won't do anything to get her out. It can get quite twisted at times and it's actually difficult in some instances to feel sympathy for the lead who doesn't always display good judgement and morals herself, especially in a scene shortly before the end but I can't really explain why I felt that way about her without spoiling a major part of the movie. I rate this one highly.

A Little too long, but the caste and some of the nasty scenes were pretty nice:

Excellent cyberpunk action thriller. Decent revenge thriller from Jeremy Saulnier. A bit too standard compared to his following films Green Room and Hold the Dark, though through that it does lack the confusing plot points of the latter. For me this film actually got less and less compelling as it went on and the end felt rather anticlimactic. This was a good one.

Merely okay, as Eastwood movies go. Very good 50's western. Ditto. Looking forward to checking out more Anthony Mann/James Stewart westerns. Re-watch. For me, this one is a sci-fi gem. That train crash sequence is one hell of a thing. For me this one was more entertaining than Ocean's 12 and 13.

I picked this one up a few months ago. I enjoyed it as well.

the only positive thing about the movie IMO. As a big Queen fan, I find more flaws than positive things to say I'm afraid. A disappointment overall (for me).

I think I´ve watched this like a houndred times (I actually watched it the other day Again when it was shown on Danish television). One of my personal favorite war movies.

My enjoyment of this was spoiled by the fact that the DVD I picked up glitched four or five times throughout it's duration, resulting in jumpy frames and audio and full-on freezes. I managed to 'watch' it but I feel like I may have missed some key dialogue here and there. Highly compelling viewing for a film that essential never moves from the titular rear window. Though obviously dated in many respects (the helicopter that appears at one point so very unconvincing) I'd still rate this one five stars. A little overlong I thought, but a good war film overall. Solid Conjuring Universe horror, though the part where the girl's ghost demands 'Your soul!' was so damn corny I felt my respect for the movie drop a few notches. Very entertaining Hitchcock movie.

I saw the remake a while back and really enjoyed it. This one is good too but a product of westerns of the time and aimed at a more family friendly audience (PG rated rather than 15 like the remake). Still I'm pleasantly surprised how much it holds up. A 'northern' western film. Not the most compelling thing I've ever watched. Not a keeper.

This Norwegian disaster movie was actually pretty great. The story was pretty basic, but the Norwegian nature scenary and the fairly realistic and damn eerie looking wave were great. I can recommend this one, if you enjoy disaster movies:
...ohh...and a busfull of Danes are killed by the giant wave...those fuckin´ Norwegians

My second Hitchcock film. I knew less about this one in advance though I did still enjoy Psycho more. My biggest criticism of this film is the complete lack of explanation for the events and the film seems to abruptly end without the attacks actually coming to end, leaving the fates of all the characters unknown.

Very good Pacino crime film. Finally got to see this. I think it's impact was lessened by the fact it's such a famous older film that spoilers have entered into popular culture so I knew the plot twists before they happened, but I still enjoyed the suspense of the film. I'm looking forward to seeing more Hitchcock work. Not as much of a horror film as expected based on the film's reputation. It's more like a very quirky crime film until t's last act, when it just gets plain weird. I enjoyed most of it and it will be worth another watch sometime. Another one from the same director as Kill List. Another odd film. Horror western. The premise is in some ways similar to the later Bone Tomahawk but it's a creature feature. Unfortunately it's delivery doesn't come over as very compelling right from the off and I found my attention wandering throughout. Not a keeper.
