Spiceworld! :uohs:
These are silly tearjerkers for the simple-minded.
If you want to see decent holocaust movies watch Lumet's The Pawnbroker or Lanzmann's Shoah.
My taste in movies differs from the majority of people on here, mainly because I have seen more and different things in my life than you have.
That has nothing to do with my nationality. It's more a matter of cultural pessimism. Polemically spoken: All movies since the Seventies have been shite
SPR was a great flick. And a great war flick. But sorry, Mr. Spielberg. The Longest Day was the best D-Day film ever made.Were on the same page here."Saving Private Ryan" is hardly IMO one of the great war movies.I will take "All Quiet on the Western Front","Paths of Glory" ,"Patton","To hell and back",and countless others before it.
Movies and actors are not nearly as good now as they were as you say from the 70s back.But then again I feel that way about music as well so maybe its just a generation gap thing.:dunno:
PS: But I would not call Saving Private Ryan a worst movie just not a great one.
/fixed.
I know it's just your opinion that 2001 sucked, but usually the only people that don't like it are the ones who can't understand it.
I might be wrong, and maybe it is really shit... But number 79 on Imdb's top 250 list tells me it isn't.
Anyone that uses IMDb [poll results] as a reference to how good a movie is loses respect.
Top Gun was overrated. The fighter jet scenes were about the only things worth seeing. The characters were stupid. The plot was stupid. The dialogue was horrific.
