Don't get it either. It's all very sleek and it's all homage to old films and film genres I haven't seen, but his films tend to lack characters and interesting plots.bazjonster said:Any Tarantino film.
What on earth is all the fuss about?
Utter attention seeking drivel.
Also, he's an asshole.0 -
I don't watch a ton of films, but going through the list of best picture nominees in recent years:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Award_for_Best_Picture#2000s
Million Dollar Baby: I just didn't find it particularly interesting. And whatever our societal and cultural ills are, I've never thought the answer was "more boxing movies."
Munich: It was soooooo long and I think I forgot who the characters were about halfway through.
The Departed: I just didn't find it particularly interesting. And whatever our societal and cultural ills are, I've never thought the answer was "moreboxingmob/corrupt cop movies."
This exercise taught me that I stopped watching films around 2010.0 -

Do me a favour Chirpy . Stop criticising everything I say it’s becoming boring. Just like North by Northwest. #ObsessedRiviera said:
Bored you? It's fast moving, loads of twists, brilliant humour and Cary Grant and James Mason! I think you are getting mixed up with another film or you haven't seen it or you saw it when you were too young to understand it. Mind you, you also had Citizen Kane on your list so maybe you're beyond help...Bedsaddick said:
I hated it . It bored me rigid which is unusual because I love most of Hitchcock’s films.Riviera said:

Try selling that beer @Chirpy Red instead of drinking it. You might become a nicer person .Riviera said:

We agree to disagree on The Godfather. I would also add that Godfather 2 is the second best film of all time (we'll draw a veil over Godfather 3).McBobbin said:
Blazing Saddles is up there as one of the best and for me the second best comedy ever made - but nothing beats Life of Brian in that category.

Love the first two Godfathers. The third was a mistake .bobmunro said:

As for Mel brooks i would put Young Frankenstein as the overrated bracket too. Saw it for the first time last year and couldn’t see what the fuss was all about .0 -
Other than the brilliant Blazing Saddles I think all Mel Brooks films are pretty lame.Bedsaddick said:

A few random films that bore/annoy me include Babel, Crash, The Kings Speech and The English Patient. I also saw Black Panther last week with my son. Some of the reviews have been so over the top it's embarrassing. I know it's important that the cast is largely black but other than that it's just a middle of the road Marvel film not an epoch changer.1

Usual suspects
Shawshank redemption both aimless drivel only critically acclaimed cos nobody wants to admit they don’t get it There’s nothing to get neither makes any sense 2 hours of life you won’t get back
Empire Strikes Back = 10 minutes of plot plus 2 hours of filler

Love Quentin Tarantino films, not for any high minded reason other than I find them really entertaining.
I think the Coen Brothers films are massively overrated (bar The Big Lebowski - which is a cracker) and I think Tim Burton is almost totally shit, seems to be loved just because of his really alternative style to me. Don't get it.1 -
Didn't like it, but tempted to see it again in case I was missing something.eaststandmike said:Dunkirk
