Movies I’ve seen recently #1
Must-see-s:
Leon The Professional ( iMDB )
Genre: Action / Drama / Comedy
Loli Natalie Portman, Gary Fucking Oldman, Luc Besson and packed with action, awesome mesmerizing scenes, lovable protagonists and unforced laughs.
Waltz with Bashir ( iMDB )
Genre: Animation / Documentary
A thought provoking surrealistic hebrew documentary with a unique presentation style using animation. The documentary deals with memories and war amongst other things, with the stories and memories of several Israeli soldiers that served during the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon.
Religulous ( iMDB )
Genre: Documentary / Comedy
A humor packed documentary by Bill Maher on his views on Religion. Bill drives around the world asking people of different religions why they believe and how they can explain the rediciouls ideas of religions.
Stephen Fry in America ( iMDB )
Genre: Documentary / Comedy
Stephen Fry travels through 50 states of the U.S. and meets several interesting inhabitants in each of them. Not your avarage everyday view of America, fun, full of whacky encounters and Fryish humor.
Rashomon ( iMDB )
Genre: Action / Drama / Comedy
Proof that movies can whitstand the test of time and technological advancement. Roshomon simply kept me glued to the screen, with it’s classical (can’t get around using the word it seems) study of human honesty, perspective and reason for living.
Tropic Thunder ( iMDB )
Genre: Action / Comedy
I loved most of the characters and Robert Downey Jr. Quite a few of the jokes strike home as well and offer a good laugh with it’s absurd yet not too over the top story.
Wristcutters: A Love Story ( iMDB )
Genre: Comedy / Drama / Fantasy
An entertaning ride through a made-up afterlife for people who comitted suicide.
Princess Bride ( iMDB )
Genre: Comedy / Adventure / Fantasy
Scaling the Cliffs of Insanity, Battling Rodents of Unusual Size, Facing torture in the Pit of Despair. – True love has never been a snap. Couldn’t have said it better myself.
5 Centimeters per Second ( iMDB )
Genre: Comedy / Drama / Fantasy
Awesome animation, captivating story and characters, coupled with a great sad love story.
Maybe-s:
Body of Lies: A cliche action, but it’s not a bad way to pass time.
Burn After Reading: Crazy little flick that doesn’t hide it’s own “flaws”.
Curious Case of Benjamin Button: Titanic for the next generation.
El Topo: Absurd and crazy, be ready for sodomy.
Gomorra: A good take on a great book.
Not-ies:
Death Note The Movies (3 parts) Watch the anime series instead.
Righteous Kill: Just another hollythriller.
The Day the Earth Stood Still: Just sad.
