Stylish, sleek and punchy; The Killer is as poised and crafted as it's titular protagonist. From the atmospheric, bass forward score to the pace of the streamlined plot, this is just a cool fucking movie that I can't wait to watch again. I'm not as immersed in the Fincher lore as many seem to be here, but I've never come away from one of his movies disappointed yet and The Killer is no exception. Great movie.
Holy Shit, the best series ending ever, these writers will never run out of work.
Deserves a higher rating than 82%. This movie is perfection in motion. Great cast, great direction, great music, great dialogue, great cinematography, I could go on and on... Just see it. Just love it. Just watch it over, and over, and over, and over...
Very strange movie. Strange alien interaction. I found it started off ok but got really weird and I found it difficult to understand truly what the aliens wanted from her. The end was kinda weird and I was left feeling mixed emotions.
it definitely needs a second rewatch is what i strongly think and need to say;
since the first second this movie started, the sound design was out of this world, and its one of the main things i loved about this movie
i felt like i couldn't clearly understand half the stuff Robert Downey Jr's character kept saying, and i feel like i missed out on a big part of the movie because of it, that's why i strongly feel like i need a second rewatch of the movie, then i'll truly know if i ended up loving, or Loving loving my first ever Christopher Nolan movie on the big screen;
when that explosion finally went off, it literally gave me a scare, they did an incredible job with the movie's sound design
it had some g o r g e o u s shots as well, especially the last one, where it slowly zooms on Oppenheimer's face;
the anticipation & suspense as they're slowly completing the Project, (with the subtle nuclei reactions SFX that is happening in the background) showing it getting assembled piece by piece.. having the countdown... then it finally going off... it truly immerses you into the experience, and leaves you speechless afterwards, and that, that is only the beginning of it all, because the aftermath, and what follows, is the true horrifying stuff, as Oppenheimer slowly realizes what these events and discoveries are truly leading to;
& the way Nolan depicts Oppenheimer's regret, and all the other emotions he's going through, visually and through sound design, was perfect
This is a masterclass in how to portray subjectivity. I was absolutely immersed in this character and could feel the amazement, horror, and divided feelings that he was going through. The directing was phenomenal and deserves much praise.
This movie is legendary. someday it'll become a classic. I don't know why someone is complaing about why they didn't get to explore more of Oppenheimer's character, or what he was. I think that person needs to rewatch this movie. Scene are not snippets, It is complete and well integrated. Yes, they covered a lot ground. Could it have been a miniseries? of course! but saying that this movie fails to integrate different aspect, is completely false. Even character whom had small screen time, did perfect. I think everyone needs to hit theatre, so Hollywood makes more fucking movie like this. which delves deep in character and dark part of human chatacter. Not everything is Pink and happy. I think, you must watch it in theatre decide for yourself. I think I have spent all my penny well. Thank you Nolan.
Greatest comedy special in the last five years.
It was a brilliant series..
The most beautiful epilogue ever written for a TV show. Brilliant.
I do understand why there's such low rating to this cinematic art on IMDb. You need immense patience to understand and to feel the beauty behind an art. This movie is something that most of our "generational 15 seconds audience" will hate to sit through it and it's understandable. Not everyone deserves great art.
But I know one person does more than anyone. William Dafoe. He is THE ART.
I thought for sure that the short season and short episodes would lead to an unsatisfying ending...
I could not have been more wrong. I'll miss this show, I'll miss these characters, I'll miss this ship. Till we meet again Rocinante.
God i'm gonna miss the Rocinante crew so fucking much. They definitely stuck the landing on this finale.
"We been on the road for 18 hours. Need a bath... some chow...then you and me sit down, talk about who dies" I love Capone!
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie! Good suspense, acting, plot etc. Highly recommended.
Gravity done right, the fire, tears, blood coagulation, etc. This is science fiction with actual science, amazing show.
Really great performances, but the movie is pretty messy. It genuinely felt like I was watching a movie trailer that was almost 3 hours long.
The annual FU from songwriter Diane Warren to every Oscar completionist this time is titled "Tell It Like a Woman." There will definitely be no "Applause" from me for this awful anthology film. Female empowerment in the film industry is an important task, but I have no idea how a shitty project like this will help in this regard. Unfortunately, Warren's song (which I played three (!!!) times in the final 20 minutes) is pretty lame, too. So it probably won't work out with the Oscar once again.

"All the Beauty and the Bloodshed" is a documentary about the life of the US photographer Nan Goldin. The focus is on her artistic career on the one hand and on her activism against the notorious Sackler family on the other. Both parts are interesting in their own right. Unfortunately, the film also sometimes feels like two separate documentaries. Occasionally, just when you feel like you're really getting into one of the two topics, a sudden jump to the other one pulls you out again. There are certainly points that could connect the two areas. But they don't really become clear. In the end, however, the documentary still works very well.
There is no question that Alejandro G. Iñárritu is a great director. But that doesn't change the fact that I was unable to connect with "Bardo" for the majority of the time. To my shame, I have to confess that at many points I didn't understand exactly what I was watching. Iñárritu stages many moments in a truly amazing way and shows the full extent of his creativity. At the same time, he was probably a bit self-indulgent and pretentious while making this film.
Almost every scene drifts into surrealism, making it extremely difficult to even begin to follow the plot (at least that's how I experienced it). The plot is also unfocused. The extremely long runtime along with the jumbled plot are really not a good combination. I haven't seen a movie as exhausting as "Bardo" in a long time. At least the finale managed to grab my attention, though.
Except for a few impressive moments, the latest work of the master director is truly a disappointment. At this point in his career, Iñárritu has, of course, earned the right to make the films he is most passionate about. But I personally prefer his earlier works far more.
One of the best anti-war movies of all time. I was shaking and had heart racing the whole run-time.
One of the most memorable cinema-experiences I ever had. After the credits rolled, no one made a move for two minutes. Everyone sat quietly and thought about what they had seen. At one point early in the movie almost everyone had also stopped eating their popcorn.
Watch it in Cinema if you can. Watch it in german if you can. Watch it in german with subtitles if you must. Or wait for it's Netflix-Release. But watch "All Quiet on the Western Front" no matter what. And learn from it.
One of the most intense movies you'll ever see.
Seriously a fantastic film. Some of the best acting, direction, writing, and cinematography you’ll see all year. Kerry Condon better win an Oscar for this.
Pattinson is the best Batman ever.
he is so tortured, his emotions are sincere. He's the darkest and most precise batman out there.
the visuals and the soundtrack are incredible and take you into the thoughts of the character.
For me it’s a masterpiece.
I just want to thank the cinema gods for this absolute dream. It feels like I passed out and when I came to I could remember a very good and satisfying Batman film.
Great film
This movie is a masterpiece of the genre. Do yourself a favor and watch this.
The German nihilists, the feminist artist, the porn manager, the crazy phedophile, the crippled fake business tycoon, the Vietnam-war obsessed psycho and off course the Dude: a lazy deadbeat lowlife. The Big Lebowski sure has a lot of colourful personages which in my opinion is one of the reasons this movie is one of the best i have ever seen.
This is one of the many masterpieces from the Coen brothers, i wish i could congratulate them myself because they are geniuses. The music, the script and the cast are beyond fantastic. This is a masterpiece that only comes along in movies a few times in a decade. This is one of those movies that is and always will be a cult classic. I cannot say that this is the best movie that the Coen brothers ever made, but only because they made so many exceptional movies. But its definitely high up the list.
My favorite part is Gutterballs, when the Dude has some kind of hallucination. The music was just perfect together with the show Jeff Bridges and Julianne Moore put on. I can't tell you how often i saw that part, that was just awesome.
Anyone should see this movie at least once in his lifetime. But once you've seen it i can guarantee you that you want to see it again.
A solid 90s action flick. Harrison Ford is a great president who can kick butt. Gary Oldman plays a great villain. It went on a little too long and I didn't care for the last 15 minutes.
i don't... what.. i just can't breathe aright now... holy holy damn
Lalo lurks in the grime and filth of the sewers (some gorgeous low-light images there) and yet Jimmy and Kim are the ones getting their hands truly filthy. Their horrific contraption, hastily reassembled with the help of Kim's unflinching commitment to debauchery, goes off perfectly, dropping bombs on Howard's life and career and throwing sly winks at the audience in the process. This while Lalo lies in waiting, swimming his way toward his prey - his sinister intent lurking beneath the surface of every frame, coloring interactions and images with paranoia and anticipation - until the two streams converge once again in the foreboding candlelight of Jimmy and Kim's apartment. An elemental, cataclysmic finale, all of our protagonist's impish machinations laid bare in front of them, but giving them no time for reflection or remorse as a force completely beyond their control, one that appears in the background like a shadow, ephemeral and inhuman, the purest embodiment of evil, punctuates their escapade with the most bone-chilling moment in the series. Forced to watch their torture actually end in tragedy. Gonna go crazy waiting two months for the next half.
