Movie bin

Migrated topic.
I'm watching a Japanese film at the moment called R100, really funny.
The best latest film I've seen is American Sniper because of Bradley Coopers acting , his film Limitless was an amazing film too.
 
Ex Machina

Absolutely blown away by the quality of this film. From the writer of 28 Days Later, this is his directorial debut.
Dark. Intelligent. Thought-provoking. So many good things to say. Watch it! ;)

I"ve been looking forward to this coming out. Will definitely go and see it.

I second that. This movie is brilliant, a future "classic" sci-fi movie as far as I'm concerned. Movies like this help to establish/define cultural views on AI. I hope to see more cerebral AI movies like this in the future.

An amazing film.

With some beautiful lines from the Bhagavad Gita:

In sleep,
in confusion,
in the depths of shame,
The good deeds
a man has done before
defend him.
 
The movie I watched two days ago was really cool, called "Mall". some OEVs inside. 😉
It may be not as great as it could have been...but still very worth watching.

Also watched Musarañas recently, cool one too.

I'm keeping Interstellar for a special occasion. :want:
The home cinema room needs some spring cleaning first. 😁 Yeah, late spring, I know... :oops:
 
I saw Ex machina the other day and i liked it. It did"nt blow me away but it was better than Inter-bloody-stella, which i feel is a bit over-rated and has more holes in the plot than the Titanic (ok, so maybe the Titanic only had one hole in it, but it was a pretty big one).

I have seen a few AI films lately. I have actually been banned by her indoors from watching any more. I saw Automata. All these AI films are very distopian and dark. With AI it seems that either they are going to be horrible to us or we are going to be horrible to them. I don"t think that they are a good advert for intelligence. Whether it be human or artificial.
I enjoyed Chappie, it was by the same director as District 9.
Blade runner has got to be the best AI film i have seen. The ending is great.
 
So I just watched a few movies recently recommended here in this thread.

-Ex Machina was pretty good, interesting, entertaining.
-Interstellar I liked even though it had some problems, but somehow I found it touching and interesting.

-Lazarus Effect I found terrible, a pet semetary remake in a lab setting and add on some DMT... No imagination IMO.
-Jupiter Rising - I really expected more from this movie. The visual effects were awesome, but the whole characters were so cliché it made my head hurt. The idea behind the story is interesting but the story itself has no subtlety and no depth, and nothing that really intrigues.

-I origins - really blew me away in the best of all senses. It was intelligent, emotional and philosophical with believable characters and good story telling, where you weren't really sure in which direction the story was headed. I'm so glad I watched this movie.
 
I'm watching a film called "The Lazarus Effect".
I watch films in quarters, so a film lasts a week or so for me, I cant be bothered with a whole film, I have better things to do.
They keep going on about DMT, its bugging me, I wish they would shut up about it.
Apparently when you die it floods your brain , according to this film. See irritating .
I'm only watching it because I'm in love with Olivia Wild :love:
 
Watched "I Origins" and "Ex Machina" this weekend based on recommendations from this thread. Both very solid, thanks guys! :thumb_up:

Def going to review here for other picks

Saw that movie too! Found it amazing:thumb_up:
 
I also loved I Origins. Awesome film!

I saw the new Mad Max last week... it was really good but whatever you do, do not watch it in 3D and definitely don't watch it in the front row of an IMAX. It's basically one long action sequence and in 3D it's hard to tell what's going on at times. Other than that, it was an amazing movie.

Chappie was probably one of the worst films I've seen in a while. It seems like they spent all their money on the visual effects (which were amazing) than the script itself. Acting was ok at times, but overall seemed lazy. The end made me laugh out loud it was that bad.
 
I've got I Origins lined up to watch soon, may even give it a go tonight, good to know so many people rate it :)

Jupiter Ascending i couldn't get into myself but watched Ex-Machina last night and liked it quite a bit, spoiler alert... I thought the blood at the end was unecessary but it is hollywood after all, i should be surprised it took that long to get violent :roll:

I also saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind a few days ago and it is a really great movie, i figured out how it was going to come back around and end about 15 minutes in but still a great little film

I love Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Jim Carrey's performance is beautiful not to mention it is a very trippy movie. Navigating the mind while memories disappear is pretty interesting and I feel they did a great job of portraying/filming that. It is a heart warming tale with some tear jerking moments! One of my all time favorites!
