saw 12 years a slave and thought it was fantastic. tough to watch but really good.
Is it a requirement to say "it was tough to watch" after watching 12 Years a Slave?
The Historian in me kept questioning throughout but whatever, its an important movie and it needed to be made.
questioning what
I'm confused. If it was documented as accurate, why is it over the top to portray it that way?
What I typed made no sense.
Fassbender is a combination of many stories and documented truths about some slave owners. For some people, 12 Years is what they think the entire Plantation world was like and that is a historical inaccuracy. I think that's probably the case with any historical movie.
yeah like the girls who say they were raped but really just regretted the sex afterwards
Over the past couple of days I saw these for the first time:
Pleasantville
Her
Sin City
The Hunger Games 3 was terrible - Boring, terribly written, lazily acted. It's basically the bottle episode of the movie franchise, and it guarantees that the final film will be overwrought with violence.
How's Her and what did you think of SC/Pleasantville?
I definitely agree about JLaw re: hunger games, she gave a terribly flat performance.I watched Jennifer Lawrence's breakout performance in Winter's Bone for the 3rd time, it was on some random TV channel. Her acting has gone downhill significantly. I feel like she sleepwalked through the XMen movie. Just a horrid performance.
Did you guys READ Hunger Games? The final movies were never going to be all that great with the third book to go off of.
Saw it. Thought Boyhood and Nightcrawler were better. Didn't like the underlying message in that movie.
Yea that last book is so bad.
