Movies that blew you away
« on: January 31, 2010, 02:18:03 am »
Just one (at a time) and tell us why...without revealing too much to someone who might go and see it.

A recent movie that blew me away was: The Book of Eli. I tried to guess it before it happened but that damn movie still beat me up and made me like it. :P I'll probably go see this again soon.

2001: A Space Odyssey

I just watched it almost a year ago.

No words. Can describe. It's just.


No words.


I literally was drooling all over, sinking in my couch.

Sling Blade

After seeing Billy Bob Thornton in Bad Santa and the Bad News Bears, my impression of him was a pretty good actor, but probably only for parts of grumpy middle-aged men.

But after seeing Sling Blade,

Man...

That man can seriously write some sick crap and back it up with his acting.

Sling Blade is a must see.
Yeah, I know right?

Unbelievable!
Am I a ghost or a man? Or a man-ghost offspring that come from mi father's inexplicable penetration of mi mother's ghostly woman parts? Or am I a child imitating a man's ability to change into a ghostly form in order to preserve mi appellation?

Recently, it had to be Avatar. Though it was slow for the first 45 minutes, the last 2 hours just totally gave me goosebumps. In a excitment way. Also, Pearl Harbor. I've watched this movie 5 times(most I've ever watched a movie) and still can't get bored watchin it.

I absolutely loved Shawshank Redemption. It's a sad-ish movie, but it was so well made. And the plot twist was incredible.

I also really loved the remake of The Count of Monte Cristo. Also a kind of sad-ish movie. From the very beginning, the movie makes you love the main character. They take the entire movie in the direction you want. It's a bit predictable, but I'd watch it a thousand times.

It has to be "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly". It may be around 40 years old but it is still the best clint eastwood film ever :)

Actually "Die Welle" is a fantastic German film about a school teacher who sets up a fascist movement in the school. An absolute must see.
