So many great parts of that film, but none greater than the entire dinner scene at the palace. Monkey brains, life snakes INSIDE a giant dead snake, and eyeball soup! Love it! If you go to www.firebox.com, you can actually buy a Monkey Brain replica bowl. If I were not trying to continually find ways for my wife to not leave me, I'd pick it up in a second. I've always loved temple. Like you say, it's definitely 'different' and it's not the best 'film' of the trio... but it's just so damn fun to watch!

Spoderman Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Yeah, Temple is great. Easily the greatest climatic scene out of the whole series, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flume Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 The Witch: 9/10 great atmospheric slow burn with a feminist undertone, not a movie I would watch again. Felt like a fever dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookie Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Steve Jobs 4/10 Awful pacing. The movie had absolutely zero rhythm to it. Shoots itself in the foot out the gate with a way too long scene cycling through several Steve Dilemmas and just kind of crashes on from there. Kind of a shame because broken down to individual elements - acting, shot composition, score - it felt pretty slick, but I don;t know somewhere in the writing or editing it got lumped into a big clumsy shape. It did seem to smooth itself out in the last half hour but by that point I was fighting the urge to turn it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) The Last Man on Earth Just rating the last episode. I feel like I say this about most of the episodes, but this last one was the best in the series so far. I could not stop laughing throughout. - Carol's "Masburatoruim" she made for Tandy - Todd getting deeper, and deeper, and deeper into trouble with his lady situation. - And last, but certainly not least, Spoiler Nut punch on Jason Sudeikis at the end Edited April 4, 2016 by Monty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The Quest - 2/10 Jean Claude Van Damme (classic????) from 1996. Such a glorious piece of crap. Racist? Check. Dexter's dad? Check. And the best James Bond of all time? Check. Check. Check. In all honesty, Roger Moore was the best thing about the movie, and he was really good. So suave.

GLASSJAW Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) hail caesar!: 8.7/10 coen bros do it yet again. there is absolutely zero confusion on my part as to why so many people don't like this movie. but for me, i love Hollywood history, and i love satire. so many of the jokes are in-your-face silly, but others are layered and obscure (do 99% of the casual film-going audience even know who Marcuse is?). this is all just a recipe for success for me. it's not perfect. a couple of the jokes/characters are flat. some of the constant celeb-peddling was distracting at times. but overall, i thought it was great. some amazing visuals, some hilarious scenes, and plenty of subversion - what more could you ask for from a coen bros movie?

The Bookie Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Ex Machina 8.5/10 Pretty good. Simple. Always liked Alex Garland's writing yet it's still impressive to see such a tight directorial debut, near perfect pacing, atmosphere, music integration etc. The random synchronized dance scene was the standout for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) I've been holding off on this for a few days, because I'm embarrassed that I watched it, even if it was online. Deadpool - Another pile of garbage/10 Not entertaining and humor that is certainly not original or "cutting edge". I know the Deadpool character, so I understand the "shtick". But if you've ever watched a film, superhero or not, and just made unoriginal, smarta** remarks throughout the entire thing, that's what Deadpool is. The problem is that all the jokes and comments Deadpool and Co. make throughout the film aren't things that the average Joe Blow 20 year old wouldn't say.
