Let's talk about movies

[Antora]

Recently I watched:
Breaking Dawn - Better than the other Twilight movies.
War Horse- for some reason, I didn't like it. I usually like war movies :S

New Years Eve- OMG sooo bad! The best thing about that movie was seeing Russel Peters.

[zsayeed]

You guys have to watch this movie. An amazing movie.

[Banglaguy]

Hostel 3 sucked big time for me..

Just watched it. Great movie. The plot, acting, and setting is totally different from typical Hollywood movie. This kinda movies makes Bollywood movies seem like a joke.

Naimul bhai, let us know if you come across more movies like this.

I have been watching Persian movies lately. Watched few and there are few more in waiting list. Here are some my favs (with eng subtitles)

1. About Elly- (Must Watch) award winning movie. Great direction, great acting and a great story. Nuff said, watch yourself. Btw, its from the same director of 'A Separation'.

Youtube link (part 1) [you can watch rest there]

2. Baran (Must Watch) One of the best Iranian movies. Talking about unconditional love, this movie is the best example. Director Majid Majidi's master piece.

Youtube link ( part 1)

3. Where is the friend's home ? Classic Iranian movie from the great director Abbas Kiorostami. Very simple story but heart touching.

Youtube link (part 1)

4. Father (Pedar) Another classic movie from director Majid Majidi. Bit slow but i loved it.

Youtube link (full)

5. Ten - An unique movie from great Abbas Kiorostami. The whole movie was set in a car and made with just a handy cam. Its an experimental movie, 10 different scenes of conversations of a female with passengers. I liked it.

Mind you, i like drama type movies. So, anyone who wants to watch 'dushum dushum' movies, those are NOT for yours.

Hope you will like those. cheers

I like drama movies too. I have seen all the ones you suggested. About Elly was the best among them. Honestly, the girls looks so cute and modest in these films. I will suggest to watch this two.

1. Children of Heaven (Baccha e Asman) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118849/
2. The Color of Paradise (Rang e Khuda) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0191043/

You can find both here -- http://www.youtube.com/user/sujogyab...eo-mustangbase

Scroll down his page and you will find these two movies with English subtitles. Both are award winning amazing movies.

Let me know if you like it.

Good on you

You are absolutely right about girls. Man, girls can be so beautiful with scarfs on. My very first crush in Sydney was no Aussie, no European, no latina, rather an Iranian

Those movies are on list too. I was planning to watch today but could not watch those. I will be done watching these two movies by tomorrow sure

Other movies are:

Davandeh
Fireworks wednesday (did not find link with eng subtitle )
Through the olive trees
Half moon
Under the city's skin
Desiderium
Hamoun
Taste of cherry

[mufi_02]

These movies are very realistic yet very powerful and emotional. They make Ra.One, Don 2 and other SRK movies seem so cheap and vulgar.

Jan. Movies to watch:


Gina Carano, Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender, Channing Tatum



Nate Parker, David Oyelowo, Ne-Yo, Bryan Cranston

Anyone seen the Artist yet? What's it like? Does it deserve the hype?

[AMD128]

I recently watched this movie on HBO. The name is " The Tenth Circle ". Anyone watched it? To me the movie seemed good.

[Zeeshan]

Watched Sherlock Holmes part I again. Loved the disguise scene where he jumps off the window....

Some geniuses are behind the production. Maybe cheesy at times, but still intellectually stimulating than Gaylight.

^ Zeeshan, the Sherlock TV show on BBC is also quite good. The first episode of the Second Season based on the story of Irene Adler is great. You should check it out if you haven't already.

I agree; Moffatt did a lovely take on Conan Doyle's Adler -- probably the best of all 5 episodes so far. That said, I would have liked it even more, If Adler was truly shown to be Holmes' equal; as opposed the latter being just a wee bit smarter.

Prompted my new story under Just Cricket section

Without a shadow of a doubt. I guarantee you won't watch a better movie in 2012. I honestly couldn't find a flaw with it.

My only gripe is, so many others will copy this now

[rashed]

Anyone watch this korean movie The Brotherhood of War?? This is definately one of the greatest movie ever. I almost broke in tears on few scenes... ok ok i admit i did cry a little... so what?? im just human.

[Zeeshan]

Hum Tum started as light but became wayy too serious and tearjerker at the end. Dhobi Ghat was blah.

[Antora]

okay, so I hate bollywood movies...amar jaaner shotru, but I thought I'd attempt to watch Ra.One. OMG couldn't get past 5 minutes of this movie. WTH was that??? people actually like these things?! -_-

on the other hand, I watched "Taree Zameen par"- for a bollywood movie, it was actually okay. Something my family and I could closely relate to.

I will attempt to watch Don 2.. I don't know why I put myself through torture like this, also I want to watch "dil toh pagal hai" again! That's probably the only ever hindi movie I'll love. I love the songs in it

[Dilscoop]

Any one else planning one watching Contraband? It's gonna be good!

[Zeeshan]

Man on a Ledge would be better...

[rashed]

Omfg Korean movies are so freaking epic. Just saw the movie Musa enjoyed every bit of it. Next on list The good, the bad, the weird .

Every time I see the trailers, I keep thinking MW3.

Watched Hugo in 3D yesterday! Well.....this movie definitely plays with your head and you still try to figure what's going to happen next till the last scene....definitely NOT a kid's movie!!

As for Sherlock Holmes....watched it twice in theatres....as usual, Robert Downey and Guy Ritchie were great....and too cute Jude Law :P

Waiting for J. Edgar to release now...
