nope - nun. nada.
i'm more interested in films of the thirties than the new ones today.
Saw a Melvyn Douglas film called - good girls go to paris with Joan Blondell on youtube.
very entertaining. last week, it was best film i've seen this year so far. light comedy.
La la land sounds like a bad Fred and Ginger film?
remakes and superhero films or gritty melodramas rule and i'm getting more depressed.
has anyone sat thru transformers and understood what they were watching... a thousand metal shards shifting every frame? the story doesn't exist. it's just special effects.

It would be a brave man who'd deny the presence of Ted 2 on this list.
Interstellar and Donnie Darko are my favourites of this century thus far.
There Will Be Blood
Pan's Labyrinth
The Lives of Others
Moon

Has there ever been a more damning film review than this?
Johnny_Mustang
OK, not strictly a review but you'll get the gist.........
....Myself and Mrs Mustang watched the very excellent La La Land yesterday. As the credits rolled at the end I heard the chap in front of me say "It wasn't as good as Ted 2".
I mean, seriously?
If that's not bad enough Ted 2's not even as good as Ted 1.
I felt like punching the ignoramus square in his chops.

Les Miserables just for Anne Hathaway's performance if nothing else.
I'm going to throw my hat into the ring with the very beautiful and haunting The Pianist.
Outstanding.

Blue is the warmest colour is an excellent film if you don't mind subtitles and lesbians getting naked
I quite liked Das Boot a long film but it draws you in and is very atmospheric
Another vote for There Will Be Blood, an absolute masterpiece of a film.
There Will Be Blood is a brilliant film. Boyhood would be my other favourite from this century.
Other notables, The Departed, Gangs of New York, The Theory of everything and wolf of wall street.

Agree with Gangs of New York, have watched it countless times.
24-Hour Party People and The Grand Budapest Hotel are two films I can watch again and again. And each is pretty well unique in its own way.
