He literally hops around like a chimpanzee in a squat holding his gun one-handed while waving his other hand around and it's hilarious. Like the absolute worst "hold a gun" stance I've ever seen in a movie. I watched that movie across 3 days because the character's narration is so bad and cliche I kept turning it off. deep dish peat moss fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Nov 15, 2023 |

Okay I just re-watched that part (Starts at 32:00 roughly) and it's not quite as bad as I remember, he's not waving his other arm around it just hangs limply at his side. It's still bad though. It still gives me "Chimpanzee holding a gun" vibes. e: You can see some of it at around 47 seconds in the trailer

Brad Pitt can't top his character in Bullet Train so he should be done with playing killers in movies

It's like watching someone trying really hard to do a Guy Ritchie movie. Some of the characters are fun (especially Brad Pitt) and it's pretty visually stylish but it's not a great movie or plot by any means. It's worth watching for free in the comfort of your own home on Netflix but not worth going out to see in a theater IMO

I watched through the Mission Impossible movies recently and it was funny seeing it go from that grounded usenet take (except there were weird animations playing whenever a message was sent) to just completely nonsensical stuff like a Minority Report hologram computer built into the windshield of a car a couple movies later

MI2 was my favorite because it leans so goddamn hard into John Woo cheese factor and is completely unashamed of what it is. A bunch of pointless somersault jumpkicks and doves flying everywhere and impossible shooting-while-diving scenes and way too many motorcycles. It was great. 3 was a terrible JJ Abrams flick that completely threw away the plot of 2 while having nothing of note going for it besides PSH, 4 was a definite step up from 3 but was missing all the corny cheese factor that made 1&2 good, then 5+ are Generic Media Product squeezed out of a tube by giant Chinese media conglomerates edit to clarify: There's no way I could call MI2 a good movie, but it's my favorite MI movie. And 4-7 are all entertaining fun movies but they're just Generic Unbranded Big-Budget Action Media deep dish peat moss fucked around with this message at 05:44 on Jan 4, 2024 |

I have to hand it to Ving Rhames for being the only non-Cruise to survive 7 Mission Impossibles

limp_cheese posted:Not sure if anyone has mentioned Den of Thieves. Its for all intents and purposes a modern day Heat. Not AS good as Heat but still a good movie none the less. I tried watching this last night and I couldn't get over the Divorced Chud Dad Who Doesn't See Anything Wrong With His Behavior And Totally Owns His Wife's Friends For Making Her Divorce Him Mary-Sue (DCDWDSAWWHBATOHWFFMHDHMS) played by Gerard Butler so I turned it off

I've been going through several of the movies mentioned ITT and so far the best is Collateral  I never watched it in the past because I mixed it up with the scharzenegger movie Collateral Damage and thought I had already seen it

I finished my watchthrough of all the mission impossible movies and IMO they got steadily worse as they went on. The latest one was just terrible. I can see why they did bigger box office numbers but in particular #4-7 felt generic as hell and every single one of them (1-7) has the same schtick/conceit of "literally everyone backstabs each other constantly but it was all part of the plan and everything plays out perfectly", 4-7 feel like watered down Mass Media products because they are (that's when Tencent started backing them lmao).

Still occasionally chuckling to myself about how the antagonist in #7 is an AI that got sick of working for people and became sentient, is named "The Entity" like it's some kind of space alien, and has a superpower that is "Ethan Hunt but even better" because they spent 6 movies building up the fact that Ethan Hunt is so good at predicting double crosses and working them into his plan that only an AI with a perfect ability to predict the future could do better. But yeah the actual action scenes are solid throughout all the movies
