Bad taste by Peter Jackson - Scifi/Alien horror movie made in 1987. Not bad for a low budget movie. If you want more information, google it ;)
Be Kind Rewind by Michel Gondry - (2002) Reason why I watched is was that it had Jack Black (and they made short versions of movies). It it is raining and you don't have anything better to do, you can watch this movie ;)
Cidade de Deus by Fernando Meirelles - Brazilian drama made in 2002. This I do recommend everyone to see. I would say that is in "Must see" list ;) The movie is not as much entertaining as it is a true story of a life style.
Crank 1 & 2 by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor - Action movie made in 2006 and 2009. Really high intense and funny sometimes. Seen first one twice already and still like it. One reason is the lead actor Jason Statham (seen more then one of his films ;) ), he is in my "Must see actors" list. So if I find a movie him in it, I will watch it (unless it is rated really, really, really bad and I can't find it anywhere).
District 9 by Neill Blomkamp - Scifi movie made in 2009 (South African movie). Start is a bit slow, but trust me the rest is good. I like the way the movie is made, as it is very realistic (well there are aliens, so not too realistic, but you know what I mean when you watch the movie) and has the "what could really happen" quality.
Funny Games by Michael Haneke - Horror film made in 1997 (in Austria). When I watched the first time I didn't like it very much. But this is the type of the movie that makes you think. As this is very possible to happen in reality, one can't just dissmiss it. Well it had some features that are not happening in reality, but the idea... If you like horror movies, this is in "Must see" list!
Ice Age 1, 2 & 3 by Carlos Saldanha, Chris Wedge (Ice Age) and Mike Thurmeier (Dawn of the Dinosaurs) - Made in 2002, 2006, and 2009. I think you all know the movies. Also I think it is enough said when I say I have seen these all...
Into the Wild by Sean Penn - True story made in 2007. To my taste the movie was a bit long, but at least the storytelling was good enough. I would say that it was as much document as it could be without actually being one. Want to know more? Google it...
Lock, Stock and Two smoking barrels by Guy Ritchie - Crime film made in 1998 . What can I say, I love this movie! I think this might have been the first movie where I saw Jason Statham. This is definately on my "Must see" list. Want to know more? Well watch the movie!!
Monsters vs Aliens by Conrad Vernon and Rob Letterman - 3D animation movie made in 2009. Unfortunately I didn't see the 3D effects (not possible in this island), but the movie was entertaining never the less. Watching this film once is plenty enough :)
No Country For Old Men by Joel and Ethan Coen - Thriller film made in 2007. There were some similarities to Funny Games in my opinion. Like the first feelings... "Have I wasted my time??" It was a bit too long for my taste, but at least I can say that I have watched it...
The Pledge by Sean Penn - Mystery film made in 2001. You could think that it is based on a true story as (well at least I have) read of events that are similar to it. It is a slow start, but if you are into mysteries then you will like this one as well. I am not sorry that I saw this :)
Watchmen by Zack Snyder - Superhero movie made in 2009. Mix of "reality" and comic book with a hint of "how it would actually be like". Not for the youngest ones in the family, nor even to those who like Spiderman and Batman. I am glad to have seen it, but not going to watch it again. (Probably wouldn't watch this if hadn't done it now.)
Will continue later ;) It is my purpose not to tell what the movies are about (mostly) just telling you what I have seen.
You watch too many films, girl!
ReplyDeleteWell, I have lot of time :) And I do remember that one of our favourite things to do in Florida was watching movies ;)
