The Act Of Killing is the type of documentary that almost blurs the line between fiction and reality because of how loving ridiculous all the events portrayed in it are, but nope, they're all real, and that's pretty horrifying.

K. Waste posted:The cold open, the cafe gun fight, the assault on the warehouse, and the final tower raid are all competently-to-well shot scenes. The only scene that doesn't work in this regard is literally the one that looks like a video game and is constantly being interrupted by Gary Oldman commenting on why everything looks so mechanical and unexciting. K. Waste posted:This is all mute, however, because none of these films mentioned are as good as Fury, but there were plenty of great action films last year, and a lot of them were better than Edge of Tomorrow: The Raid 2, Lucy, Gunday, Age of Extinction, 22 Jump Street, Days of Future Past, Sabotage...

Grizzled Patriarch posted:I thought the new Aziz was kind of disappointing. It felt like he was playing things safe for the most part, and his timing was all over the place. Not terrible by any means, but I thought it was easily the weakest of his sets that are on Netflix. I saw him live last year and some of the material in this special was reused from that tour when I saw him. Hell, it may have even been shot on that same tour. I don't know. At first I thought "Maybe his stuff just isn't as funny the second time around?", but that can't be because I've rewatched his other specials on Netflix a few times over the years and they're hilarious, even after a few rewatches. I guess the material in this one just isn't nearly as strong as those others.

Uncle Boogeyman posted:Lord of War just got added to Netflix. If you want to see a great, underrated little movie featuring Nicholas Cage as an international arms dealer, check it out. Just a bitingly cynical protest movie of the kind you don't see very often anymore. Passionate to the point of occasional clumsiness, but at least it's passionate.

Lord Of War came out theatrically while I was still evacuated for Hurricane Katrina, so it wasn't on my radar at all until a couple months later when I got back in town and rented it from the only Blockbuster in the area that was open. It owned. I remember leaving the DVD menu on for a while after I watched it the first time because I was mystified by how cool it looked.

Sergeant_Crunch posted:It's complete trash, but it's pretty fun trash compared to the joyless slog that was 2. It's pretty much entirely comedy and even the gore is more laughably absurd than cringe inducing. It's a decent note for this terrible series to end on all things considered. Honestly, it's worth a watch if you like bad movies just for how earnestly and unabashedly awful it is.

I didn't start watching Breaking Bad as it aired until towards the end of Season 3. I'd been hearing for a while how great a show it was, but I never actually saw it until like halfway through Season 3's run. So I started from the beginning and got all caught up on the show, watched the end of Season 3 as it aired, and then watched every remaining season as they aired too.
