CJohn Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I get that people hate the superhero movies but I honestly don't understand the hate on Oz. That movie was simply charming; I wish they made more movies like it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChD Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Rush is by far the best movie I've seen this year. Captain Phillips a close second... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I mean, Kunis and Franco weren't the best in it, but it certainly was one of the more fun blockbusters this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That movie was simply charming; I wish they made more movies like it Oz was good if you only watched it once in your entire life. With repeat viewings, it gets considerably worse.

Blankments Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Oz was good if you only watched it once in your entire life. With repeat viewings, it gets considerably worse. I saw the last 40 minutes on Starz the other day, and I liked it just as much as I did the first time I saw it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 That's a bad thing?Yes that was a reason everything kept bombing. How do you expect a successful weekend when you release 4-5 movies and all are R? All the 2012 shootings, especially Newtown in December, didnt help either. Who thought it was smart back then to keep a movie titled "Bullet to the Head"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I hear Prisoners was a good movie, hopefully it will come on Netflix next year. Prisoners' script didn't do much for me, but it does include career-best performances for both Gyllenhaal and Jackman, making it really fantastic. Also, the cinematography is gorgeous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChD Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I saw the last 40 minutes on Starz the other day, and I liked it just as much as I did the first time I saw it The ending is fine. It's already in the action and stuff, but watching the entire story slowly unfolding when you know everything is plain boring. And that's the movies problem - It needs quite some time to do that.

Blankments Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Part of the reason I look back fondly on Oz was because I saw immediately after just failing at the chance to go the National Tournament for Speech, and I needed something to get my mind after sobbing at my own failure the whole bus ride home so my duo partner and I saw it and it cheered us both up. If I saw it at a different time, I probably wouldn't be so fond of it, but as it is, I loved it because it was excellent escapism at the perfect time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes the experience of watch a movie or the reason you are seeing a movie can really help to form your opinion of a movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
