300: Rise of an empire
Expected a silly movie but got a dumb stupid one instead. Maybe if you want to see Eva Green's tits. 4/10 

The original 300 was dull and pointless as fuck. Yeah yeah sepia filter, yeah art style WOTEVER. Can't say I'm tempted by the new one. 

the moment I heard black sabbath being mixed with big a bassy orchestra for the trailer, it had casual blockbuster viewer written over it. 

did you the see first one? what did you expect? 

I thought the first one was utterly mindless and silly, but Eva Green is lots of fun, even if she is getting typecast as a sexy evil witch. lol. Snyder is really hit and miss for me, but his movies tend to have great trailers.

I was just looking at all the movies coming out this year, and unless something surprises me there's really not much to look forward to until Interstellar in November. 

the first one was stylish cool fun. the second one was idiotic. the fights were boring and annoying with their fast-slow-fast-slowmo. in the first one the world made sense, I could believe the power of the spartans. I could not believe the turbine afterburner motorboat warfare in the new one. and that setup was just not as fun as the man to man combat in the first. 

Not interested in Sin City 2? 

i'm looking forward to it, i really liked sin city 1. although that phantom movie thing whatever it was called was a pos 

If you look forward to Sin City 2 (I DO!) mute your speakers before watching the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIFqHn_Ul0M 

showed you exactly what this movie would be like, according to your description of the movie. When I saw that trailer I knew instantly that the movie would be shit. 

fair enough, I thought the first 300 was one of the worst films I have seen. 

I like to not watch trailers.

nitin ok, but in itself it made sense. 

 

You watch it and most of the time the movie is spoiled because 95% of the story is in the trailer or you don't watch it and get surprised because the movie wasn't what you expected. 

no longer watch thme except when in cinema. I tend to just read a couple of reviews that I trust and that are generally spoiler free. 

... if only because of http://www.capalert.com/capreports/sincity.htm 

Watched this after 20 hours on planes, on a crappy screen the size of a postage stamp and forgot to pause it while I went to clean my teeth. It didn't make much sense this way, BUT I'm not sure it would have made much more if I'd been awake and paying attention... 

True Detective: Awesome atmosphere, nice variety and surprises, totally recommended. Rkprcg sbe raqvat fb hafngvfslvat. Jvgu nyy gur ybbfr raqf, ab erny fbyhgvba gb gur jubyr guvat.

Snowpiercer: Weird surreal movie about society. Nothing new, lots of clichees, bad script/acting, lots of stereotypes and the same old themes any movie/story critical of "our society" has had since the middle ages... Still charming and enthralling to watch. Warning, it is very long. Too surreal for my taste. 

Perrier's Bounty: Mediocre british gangster flick with too much conflict and boredom. 

Snowpiercer had a lot of clich�s but still brought them in kind of a different way I think. It's very surreal and weird though, certainly not for everyone. I enjoyed it a quite a bit.

Grand Budapest Hotel: came in not knowing what to expect, went out feeling all fuzzy. Laughed a lot. Very cutesy/whimsical and very unique sets/cinematography. Prolly gonna watch Anderson's other ones now. 

not a fan of wes anderson myself. his movies are all highly rated and kind of art house, but all are so unmemorable and dull. nothing really happens.

fantastic mr fox is the first animated film made for senior citizens, it seems.

haven't seen grand budapest hotel but I have seen most of his others. 

Not bad, maybe a little bit "quiet" when compared to other episodes...

.. and poor Wolverine, the most unlucky guy ever: changing the future didn't work well for him :P 

Really nice movie. Gives a point of view of the story from the Evil side, with a kind of romantic flavor.. Interesting, while could be considered as a movie for teen-ager girls.. though...

Angelina Jolie is awesome there: I vote her to get an Oscar awards for this movie :) 

A nice mix in between Hunger Games and Gatacca... Yet another teen-age movie, enjoyable though.. and this was the first book only, remains two till the end..

Again, the 1st book is far away better than the movie... else it could have been 5 hours long.. :P
