Magnetic North posted:Western talk got me thinking "Why did westerns die again?" Then I remembered Heaven's Gate. I recall a few years ago some people were saying it's actually a good movie and is unfairly maligned, but I don't know if they are just contrarians. Anyone seen it recently? Yeah. It's good. Slow, but good. Absolutely bonkers cinematography and setpieces. edit: "Overindulgent" would be the one word summary, but "disaster" is off the mark.

Most movies have the hero get roughed up, but not actually get persistent, meaningful wounds. They just look like poo poo but still fight at 100%. The one that pops right out at me is Karate Kid but that, of course, is both given and resolved within a couple of minutes.

Chas McGill posted:Looking for an action movie with soul. Good action, but also something underpinning it - relatable character motivations etc. I feel Point Break is a good example of this despite how ridiculous the concept is. Man From Nowhere is an obvious choice Kill Zone 2 is harder to find but has a shitload of heart

Bald Stalin posted:I was hoping to get some recommendations for epic high production value period films where in the end everyone sort of loses. I love Amadeus, There will be blood, Barry lyndon. Sorry if this is too vague. Thank you! Heaven's Gate fits this perfectly if you will accept an 1890s Western as a period piece.

Flashpoint is a frequently boring HK cop movie with a Demon Yen minute beatdown in the middle and an absolutely incredible, best in class martial arts slugfest at the end that feels like a continuous highlight reel. SPL is my favorite work and the last of the truly great HK heroic bloodshed movies. Special ID and Kung Fu Killer are both pretty good, there is some quality Yen in there.

Biggest problem I have here is that you're using a bunch of terms that don't mean anything. Not enough information given.

No trying to be a prick but Kung Fu Panda was a heavily promoted massively successful decade-and-a-half old mainstream animated blockbuster that spawned a handful of sequels and a TV show - recommending it feels like earnestly recommending Star Wars, and if you're interested in a darker science fiction movie, watch the sequel, The Empire Strikes Back. That one features a more layered villain, bigger action sequences, and it delves deeper into characters of the first movie.

Xiahou Dun posted:Timecrimes is legit quite solid. Just a cute little time travel movie that’s actually well written for a change. That's funny. I thought the same. My wife is Mexican and speaks Spanish and when I pitched it to her I too called it Los ChronoCrimenes (which sounded way cooler to my gringo rear end) and she looked at me and said "The Time Crimes? That's a silly name for a movie." so I suspect it only hits different if you're not very fluent in Spanish. We enjoyed the movie though.
