Pure Fault

...did you watch the series?
pretty damn bad, especially watching it immediately after the first
and yeah i agree completely that the little shit was just that, a little, unbearable shit head. the drum wasn't a symbol of anything to me, it was just petty disobedience. this movied sucked
very very very strange. it jumps from dark comedy, surreality to just plain unwatchable.
unbedingt ein klassisches Kunstwerk
komisch aber gut inszeniert
die Inszenirung war zwar hervorragend, allerdings fehlt es mir an die Geduld so nen Film, der scheinbar mit nur einem Gesicht von Tiefgründigkeit gedreht wordan ist , anzuschauen.
DYNO MITE DYNO MITE. i loved this shit
ziemlich unterhaltsam und gut inszeniert
yeah really, i was glued to the screen just absorbing every damn detail i could. what a film
legitimately fun and pretty well edited
it has a lot of heart, it wants to be a good film and only sloppy writing and cheesy to the point of past self aware cheesy in some cases keeps it from being so. the war bonds montage and the end credits were quite well edited, too.
not nearly as smart as it could be, but still fun and iconic despite that.
completely lacked anything that could get me into the film, it was just no good
stylistically it's in a realm of its own, there was a subtle surreality to the whole film and the editing was just superb. great film
it made me feel weird on the inside
this is what sci fi is about, simple, yet effective story telling which benefits from a low budget. the costumes, weapons, tech look grounded and have nice artistic influences. I especially like the WWI look of the Soldiers
Great great film, redeems X-3 and Origins.
incomprehensible garbage
AMERICA GOOD COMMUNISM BAD
Also Hunter Duesing i think you forget that Alexandros was known as a great rhetorician and leader of men, and both Plutarch and Arrian note ridiculous amounts of 'hero giving speeches' by Alexander through his anabasis. In this film there were...2 speeches. One of which did not rouse his men at all, so your point is quite moot.
Revisited is the version I watched and that version doesn't warrant the hate i've seen this film receive. I've read quite a lot on Megas Alexandros and the Diadochai and i'd say Stone summed up the tensions, the politicking and everything just right. Also the Revisited is structured in a completely non linear fashion and changes eras at the perfect moment.
unfortunately much more in common with Taken than Oldboy. There literally isn't a character in this movie.. just vessels who act out pre determined tropes. The worst part of this film was also my biggest gripe with Taken, there is NO tension anywhere. Since the stoic hero just happens to be the Universal Soldier 2.0, he laughably beats everyone just like Liam Neeson. no fun. Dae Su had to earn his victories
read the manga instead! just kidding this movie is so fucking good, but in the super cheesy 80's wushu way. The manga is good as a more serious and deep story, relatively speaking. both have merits
this was one of the first films i watched when i started getting into cinema, and now that i am a more 'experienced' film watcher(?) i decided to see if its original charms that got me into the big beautiful world of real cinema still endured, and they do! even more than ever as i could point out a lot more things that i thought were neat
i was ready for Achilles to kick some major ass! sounds like a meathead comment about the film but i just thought it was really powerful how he was going to defend Ifigeneia til the very end, putting on his helmet prepared to fight as hundreds of bloodthirsty Hellenes approached
pretty solid film, definitely amateurish in some regards but that's the nature of this type of film, and really it only makes me excited for all the potential of Winans.
the absolute best post apocalyptic film in terms of the raw hopelessness and destruction experienced from a human point of view. It's written well enough that you truly care for the characters and the believable sequence of events that lead to the nuclear holocaust. The last scene has resonated with me most of all, truly harrowing!
weird to try and be historically accurate about a work whose historically accuracy was never even close to important. This story formed the cultural background for the entirety of Hellenic culture, with every grand polis claiming a descendant from the war was their founder. It's a shame this wasn't the context used for this really boring 'epic'... not even worth scoring
this is those types of short films that i guess is supposed to have some underlying theme underneath seemingly unrelated this and that oh and frentic editing can't forget that. i just don't like thist type of stuff
felt like an almost tongue in cheek homage to noir, but still serious enough
