Gran Torino?1

That film has what I regard as the worst casting/ performances in the history of mainstream cinema (at least until Clint made Hereafter). The Korean kids are cringe-inducingly bad.Off_it said:Gran Torino?
Clint makes some really shit films and gets away with it IMO. Proper emperor's new clothes stuff.

To be fair, my comment probably didn't come across as I intended it.JiMMy 85 said:

What I meant was that I think it's a great film. And to be completely honest I really, really don't give a fuck if other people don't like it.
But then I'm no Barry Norman. I just know what I like.2 -
And why not?2

And that's fair. My attitude is, if somebody likes a movie more than me, they win!
I don't like Gran Torino. As Clint's retirement movie it makes a bit more sense, particularly to his fans. As a standalone drama I just don't understand it.
But when it comes to a list like this, I don't think GT can feature because the Korean kids are, objectively speaking, awful at acting!1 -
Gone with the Wind, Ben Hur and The Wizard of Oz have got to be way up there.
How about Bubba Hotep for best B movie?1 -

I thought Bubba Hotep was best watched with the 'Elvis' commentary rather than the proper script.ForeverAddickted said:

Likewise, even though it came out when I was in high school it's held up well to the test of time.Alex Wright said:
I tried watching "Spring Breakers" because I'd read a review saying it was surprisingly good. It was neither surprising nor good, and I didn't make it too far into the film.
Also, in addition to Gladiator (which I think is a bit overrated but still quite good), Snatch came out in 2000.0 -
same here, but I was a bit of an emo so that might have something to do with it. also love the 80s soundtrack on it.Alex Wright said:

Watched Mulholland Drive over the weekend - wtf was that all about ??!!
Silencio and The Cowboy - I havnt got the slightest.0 -
What a strange list. If anything I would say it's the top 100 most overrated films of the 21st century. In the top ten alone there are two films i absolutely hate . Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Spirited Away are nauseatingly bad in my opinion yet Terrence Malick's Tree of life is also there which i adored.

I haven't even bothered to look at the list. My top film list changes regularly depending on my mood so why bother with someone else's.
Today my favourite film would be Blue Collar. But only because I watched it again last night on dvd and really liked it. By tomorrow I'll have another.0 -
I notice that Adam Sandler's films are criminally overlooked.2

These lists are all highly subjective and, in reality, they're probably only put together to (a) generate a bit of discussion and (b) to appeal to people who love lists (like the bloke in 'High Fidelity').
I've seen about half of these, most of which I'd put in the 'good' or 'very good' categories, rather than 'excellent'. Of those I've seen, the ones which are, in my view, outstanding include 'A Prophet', 'Ida', 'Amour', 'City of God', 'The Lives of Others' and '4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days'.
I was disappointed with 'Shame' and 'Inside Llewyn Davis' and couldn't make head nor tale of 'Holy Motors' and the Argentinian film, 'The Headless Woman'.
Whilst it's all a matter of opinion, I think some notable omissions from the list of best films from 2000 include:
- 'Motorcycle Diaries'
- 'Paradise Now'
- 'Mid-August Lunch'
- 'Untouchable'
- 'Y Tu Mama Tambien'
- 'Wild Tales'1 -
Also thoroughly enjoyed 'Sideways', the one about the wine tasting road trip.0

Whoever said Shrek and Finding Nemo, The Incredibles pi**es on both of them. In my humble on.1
