jump Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 See I'm the opposite lol!I prefer Pacino's parts in the second.I love how he's this cool,calm,intelligent mob boss yet every sooften he explodes with emotion.I also love the scene in the third movie when his daughter is shot and he yells out in anguish with no sound.With regards to the film as a whole I can't quite remember my feelings,after I watch later I will let you know. I found him the least compelling in the 2nd imo, in the 1st you can see him being forced into and the 3rd you can see he literally just a step out of the before they pull him back in but the 2nd he comes off as a dick for me as he strings along his wife saying it gonna be a legit business and he seems to have embraced the mob boss lifestyle.

He does have and do those things in the second but to me it shows the story telling how much the character has changed since the first.He's become cold and emotionless where as before he was a warm and honest person.

Spindles Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 If you enjoyed Christopher Walken in 7 psychopaths I can only recommend watching Stand up guys, he is beyond great in that film (which was perhaps the most feel good film I have seen in a long time).

Jackmypie Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Watched 'Moonrise Kingdom' 7/10 for me. Decent movie, very straight forward storyline.. The movie it's self it pretty fucked up though, almost seemed as it was try too hard to be different. Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, What in the world of fuck happened when they made that!??! So awful its brilliantly entertaining. Worth a watch. As a rule I avoid Stephen King films unless they are on TV and nothing else is on. For ever good adaptation like The Shining or Misery there seem to be 30 shit ones.

I'm a big fan, Tennenbaums and Moonrise Kingdom are my favourite. He definitely has a particular style, I can see how it can be annoying to people though.

AcademicPistol Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Argo was brilliant. I've had Argo downloaded and ready to watch for a week now, I'm gonna do it tonight. Does Mr Cranston shine in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I fancy seeing Argo but to me it just reeks of Hollywood give me an Oscar type film which keeps putting me off. Its not at all!! Some very funny parts. Particularly in the first half. The 2nd half has some Hitchcockian standard tension in it. I was like Michael J Fox eating popcorn at times.

The Nal Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Really enjoyed Lincoln, for pure acting. The actual plot itself is fairly tame and pedestrian. But its historically accurate so you can't have it both ways I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should stop scrutinising and enjoy the serendipity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
