saw the shawshank redemption, very nice movie and the ending was epic :)

( but i still wonder that why this movie is placed above godfather and tdk in the imbd list? it's good but it's not everyone's cup of tea )

 

because of the epic ending. this is an ending no one would ever ever expect. it's become a cult classic actually. movie-wise the godfather is far far better, but this one is still brilliant because of the scene where they rip open the poster

Ok people quick question Max payne movie, worth watching?

 

I am totally bored at home today. And its playing in a cinema which is a five minute walk from home. Is it good or crap?

 

The movie is not good, especially in comparison to the game. However, it does have some positives... great atmosphere and sound design. Visual effects are neat. The movie has severe lack of action though and the plot isn't as involving as the game. Max doesn't actually even start fighting until the last 25 mins or so...

 

@praveen... i hope you didn't think the

demons were real. They were V hallucinations.

Just watched "Step Up 2 : The Streets"

 

Passable flick.. great dance routines though.

 

And the lead, Briana Evigan, is super hot :doh:

 

Passable? I felt violated after that movie - it was extremely cliched. Also some dance steps were good - the finale was pretty disappointing.

Shawshank redemption actually deserves the place in imdb and not just because of the ending. It has one of the finest narrations of all time, solid screenplay with some excellent performances. I was pretty pissed off that it lost to Forrest Gump at the oscars, atleast the common public have given it the right place.

 

And regarding Godfather, I know many will disagree with me but I always found GF II to be a lot better than the first. To be honest, I think even Goodfellas is a better movie than GF. Maybe becuase I read the GF book first and then watched the movie :/

Swap Shawshank and Forrest Gump around and that list is fair.

 

Godfather is a superb film though. Well worth its place at no1 in IMDB. Its pretty much perfect in every way. Fantastic script, great acting and some of the most memorable lines/scenes ever put to film.

either way... they weren't in the game at all were they ?? why would they wanna include such a stupid thing into it ??

watched 3 movies lately- monster's ball,memento, species: the awakening didn't like monster's ball much and i seriously wonder that how the hell halle berry won an oscar for this role? (hope it wasn't a trade off to shut up the black community for their agitation regarding this movie), btw i really liked memento, it was tight it was gripping and it worth it's critical acclaim.

species: the awakening was ordinary but still was a decent time pass movie, atleast it was better than the 2nd and 3rd parts of the series.

Helios, Tropic Thunder is f**king awesome awesome. Don't see it sober. Robert Downey and Tom Cruise both in my opinion played their best carrier roles...

Rabbit, I agree with you completely, Hallucinations in Max Payne (umm Constantine demons much?) threw it off for me.

 

Just saw 'Saving Grace' (Craig Ferguson) and 'Zack and Miri make a Porno' (Seth Rogen, Kevin Smith Directed)

Both really really funny movies. Def. watch.
