Joker (2019)
There's a place for us...
If you don't get it f--k off. Cinematically brilliant. Acting, f--king spot on. Its method, am I right? Joaquin is just magnificent. I didn't like the movie a whole lot, but I really loved his acting. Totally amazing. I think I have a concussion. Please don't do that again, ever.
The Railway Man (2013)
Fantastic
I read the short storyline of the film before viewing and it had intrigued me. I came into it with an open mind - at first romance and then the inescapable drama. The acting by Firth was amazing. I was mesmerized. It may be slow (to some of a lesser attention span) at first, but eased into a psychological drama that holds on tight and will not release until the finale. Spectacular cinematography, the scenes are beautiful and real. It is a wake up call to those who have not/do not understand the great span of WWII - brings much needed insight into the history of this particular banker's war. Ultimately, this film beautifully portrays the ultimate power of forgiveness. Which brought tears to my eyes, in the panic and hysteria that the world now feels due to war and terror, it is good to know that there is some shred of humanity that exists and has hope to exist in the future.
Snowpiercer (2013)
Raw and gritty
Yet predictable at the end, which I have a tendency to do - It was a great film, the dialog was brilliant. The ending, which I had predicted, was not so much. Open ended. If you have an imagination, you will love the ending, pretty much. The concept and the follow through, was brilliantly done. The elite feeding upon the meek, quintessential the toilet paper that be ruling over those who have nothing. For me? I'd rather die than become some form of entertainment for a stuck up cultist. But that's just me as an individual. What irritates me, is that the individual is LOST and its all 'FOR THE GREATER GOOD.' an aged old saying that originated from the 16th century...I didn't agree with a few philosophical points, I predicted the ending, was disturbed at times, but all in all, this was a good film. Skip the spoilers and just watch, well worth it.
