This is similar to the "What Are You Watching Right Now Thread", but it's a bit different. I'd rather know what your favorite movie is. Not show >_>...or youtube vid, but movie/feature length film.

I just experienced that orgasmic awesomeness that is Ninja Assassin, and it has rightfully taken its place as my favorite movie of all time. I don't think the movie went five minutes without an awesome fight of some sort. Seriously, my brain...orgasms. It happened, people.

I watched the movie too and was excellent. Protagonist lacked expressions but character did not demand it which compensated. Great action though.

What the? I just recently saw that one to, maybe... Maybe this is destiny! Maybe we were supposed to find each other here and share our thoughts.

Personally I thought it was good, action and all that but... Something didn't feel right, things felt a little overhyped and instant. Like that detective in the beginning came from nowhere with information you don't have a clue where she got it from...

Pros
Filled with action

Cons
Bad story
To fictional (expected something little more serious)

xD I thought it was just right. I wasn't hoping for a good story. Just a bunch of ninja ass kicking. It made me want to play Tenchu.

Strangely co-incidental. I posted a review on the movie on another forum and rated 9/10. And i find a thread here on the same movie.:huh:.Strange.

 

[aka958]

Yeah it kinda is.
But still, the movie had extremely poor story and nothing maked real sense. Every ninja of the clan was as trained as he is but still he manages to **** up at least 20 of them before getting damaged himself. Also, what was the point of their wounds healing by nothing? That was way over my limit...
I would give it a 6/10. But that's my opinion.

 

[BlueDevil]

Actually, the reason Raizo could mess up so many other Ninja was because the old man ninja put him through more crap. The old man even states that near the end... something to the point of saying, "You were my most promising student. I looked on you with such pride at one time. You were going to be the one to take my place once I died."

As for the magical ninjitsu wound healing, they were able to do that because they trained their bodies to do so. I know that part is a little far-fetched, but honestly, the whole movie was. And that's why I loved it. I wasn't hoping for something realistic. Crap, ninjas in modern society isn't even realistic!

I wanna see it too!!!

I have a few favourite movies that has never been dethroned by anything in the same genre, so here's mine:

- The Bourne Supremacy & The Bourne Ultimatum (awesome awesome awesome)
- Casanova (Heath :wub
- Virgin Territory
- S.W.A.T.
- The Fast & The Furious
- From Paris With Love :wub:
- Kung Pow!!!

 

[BlueDevil]

KUNG POW! YES! Bwuahahahahaha!
I haven't seen From Paris With Love, Casanova, or Virgin Territory.

I love the Bourne movies, I thought SWAT was pretty good, and it goes without saying that any movie that's about super-fast cars is pretty good xD

 

[Dante's Stalker]

Casanova is a real chic flick, but I love the medieval aged settings. Virgin Territory was hilarious, but it's meant for the more mature audience (18+).
And From Paris with Love - watch it. Seriously. Once I got over my giggle fit of seeing Travolta bald, it's a REALLY good movie. The chemistry between the two main characters was incredible. ...plus, the character Travolta played reminded me somewhat of Dante with his odd and laidback attitude :wub: It's a good movie, I'd recommend it.

Kung Pow FTW!!! Heheh, that movie rocked! Weewooweeewooooweeewooo! ROFL XD

 

[BlueDevil]

I shall look for the Travolta movie.


As for Kung Pow, don't forget that weird, wuhckkk sound she made. And then the epic scene of "Chosen one!" "I'm coming!" run run run, reset "Chosen one!" "I'm coming!" run run run, reset. Epic movie scene. XD

Edit: I have major spelling issues, trying to say "seen" instead of "scene"
Fail v_v

 

[aka958]

^ Your not fail, you play good games.

Ninja gaiden, gears of war, lost planet, and call of duty. Great games!
Pretty off topic I know...

I don't remember any good movies lately, I saw 2012 but that was a long time ago. I did also see Avatar, Wolfman and lots of more movies but they were months ago and Wolfman wasn't that great.

My favourite movie?

"Léon" (also known as "The Professional" and "Léon: The Professional").

It's been my favourite film since forever. Although my favourite childhood film was undoubtedly Robocop.

Or is this 'favourite movies you've seen recently' type of thread?

it seems i like trilogies most of all...
*Kill Bill - both
*Take the Lead - for a change
*Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
*Pineapple Express - Epic comedy
*To the Sea - It`s a Russian movie "Na more".
*The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
wtf`s up with the stand alone movies...

*Batman Begins & *The Dark Knight
*The 300
*Drag Me to Hell

Guess that`s it.

IDENTITY - Starring john cusack. Last movie that went hysterical was "FIght club". But this movie is more hysterical than character hannibal. Entertaining.

9/10

I don't have much time to explain it now, so I'll go into detail later.
