I like Martin Scorsese's work... Just recently, I've seen his newest movie "The Wolf of Wall Street". I found it a bit revelatory (but no big surprises anyway) about the way of living/thinking and ethics of "succesfull" investors in Wall Street. What do you guys think?

I just figured it'd be fun to start a thread to recommend movies to one another. With that said, feel free to share the good (and bad) stuff you've seen lately and if you want a recommendation, ask away!

As for me, I watched Prisoners recently and was pleasantly surprised. It's a very heavy film, but both Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal were amazing in their performances. Very well-written script, too.

Have at it!

 American thriller film directed by Denis Villeneuve.

Here's a good movie from a few years back if you didnt catch it... "Source Code."  Good drama

I watched that a couple of years ago on LoveFilm. Was pretty good, seeing the same scene over and over reminded me of Memento which is a great film, definitely recommended to those who haven't seen it.

I thought it was ok, got a bit tedious in the end. I preferred his previous film Moon.

Memento was a really good one...the way it was cut was brilliant...like nothing I had ever seen before.  That is one of those movies that you have to be in the mood to really concentrate or you get lost in the plot and what is going on..

I still need to watch that. It's one of those films that I keep saying that I'll watch but when I'm ready to watch a film it will completely blank me.

Moon and Source Code are two completely different movies. I liked Moon but I found it a bit bland in parts. Duncan Jones is going to direct the World of Warcraft movie. I wonder how that'll turn out.


You're kidding me? There's going to be a WoW movie? I mean sure it's big, but a movie about it? Will watch that space haha.

I kid you not: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0803096/?ref_=nm_flmg_dr_1 I don't care for it though. It'll probably just be a cheesier lower-budget version of LOTR.

Yup, Sam Raimi was tapped to direct it once upon a time, which tells you how the "feel" of the film should be... Even if Jones took over.

Guys after watching Spartacus: Blood and Sand, should I watch Gods of Arena or Vengeance?

I watched Blood and Sand, but haven't seen the others so am interested to hear what people say. Might as well as watch them and find out for yourself though - so should I, come to think of it.

I think the movie that is hard not to enjoy is Scott Pilgrim Smiley It's awesome but I wouldn't re-watch it - one time brilliant Smiley

I really vehemently hated that and so did everybody I watched it with.

Yep, I thought that it was terrible. The effects were near but the direction and content (for the uninitiated) was terrible. I guess it's one of those films that sits well mostly with the fans of Scott Pilgrim, rather than the majority of the watching audience.

I think the only people who liked it was fanboys of the comic - sorry, "graphic novel". lol comics.

Everything moved too fast, and was extremely shit. Think that there might have been one laugh out loud moment, though I can't remember it.

I think you must be mistaken. Perhaps confused with some other film where Cera plays a socially awkward teenager. Unless that one laugh out loud moment was a long drawn out laugh at how laughably shit it all was.

Haha it probably was, though now come to think about it I think that we ended up joking about it. Similar thing happened with Dan In Real Life, Jesus, that film was diabolical. 6.8 on IMDB how I don't even...

Wasn't it advertised as a comedy? It was anything but...

Yeah, but it is generally a Romance Comedy, so that has terrible written all over it. Should have seen it coming.

I think it was more of a comedy drama, but obviously failed on the comedy part.
