If this is another winner, I may indeed just have to get hyped for Blade Runner 2. Villenueve is probably #2 in the pecking order of directors whose movies I'll check out without hesitation right now.

 

We all know who's number one, right?

Prisoners is a pretty mediocre movie.

 

That said Sicario is awesome

... I didn't think that was an uncommon opinion...

Prisoners has a pretty high IMDB rating. I think it played well to suburban parents with revenge fantasies

Trailer TOMORROW!!! Can't waiit!!

Arrival feels like “if you blended a (Stanley) Kubrick and a (Steven) Spielberg movie,” Renner says, and instead of a “big  Michael Bay  alien movie,” the new film is more along the lines of Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Contact.

If you were a politician and film snobs were your base, that would be your line

prisoners is too dumb to be great. i mean i enjoy it but it can't do the fincher thing of elevating itself above the trashiness of it. also about half the acting ensembles work is... misjudged to put it kindly.

 

love sicario/enemy though.

[Ethan Hunt]

Thwre is definitely some good things in Prisoners but its just way too long. And I know its part of the point that Hugh Jackman is driven to be just as bad as the captors of his daughters and all but don't understand how I'm supposed to root for the guy. He's jus despicable.

 

 

This scene is great though.

They'd still turn their nose up at Spielberg. If you just said Kubrick that'd hit the spot.

 

I'm getting more and more jazzed for this.

No explosions and big set pieces = clever  filmmaking.

It never ceases to amaze me how little respect Spielberg gets from some people.
