is a 2008 American war film directed by Edward Zwick set during the occupation of Belarus by Nazi Germany.

The film stars Daniel Craig as Tuvia Bielski, Liev Schreiber as Zus Bielski, Jamie Bell as Asael Bielski, and George MacKay as Aron Bielski.

Production began in early September 2007. After a limited release, e.g. Los Angeles, New York City, in the United States on December 31, 2008, it went into general release worldwide in January and February 2009.[2]

1917 - pretty but quite boring and foreseeable: i pour some milk and take it with me -> it will be needed later, planes in the sky -> they will connect with these guys somehow, rats&bags etc... very game like movie. If you have seen Dunkirk, well, this is as pretty but even more boring. 3-/5


Parasite - over hyped not very good asian poor vs rich kind of drama like plot. that house where plot happens is just awesome 2?/5


A Woman, a Gun and a Noodle Shop - chinese little drama comedy happening sometime late 19th century (?) based on.... Blood Simple (Coen bros debut 1984) 4-/5


Gunwoman - regular fuckedup asian revenge story movie. which kind i happen to like. 3?/5


Snowpiercer tv-serie (Netflix) - it is so awful i had to drop it after 3rd episode. just utter crap.

I Know This Much Is True tv-serie (HBO) - good start with solid cast and different than your usual plot. i need to binge this at some point.

No wonder you don't like movies. You pick shit.
Watch The Abyss (1989) and get back to me.

Holy fuck. Ted 2. Cheese and fuckin' crackers.

I'm desperate for movies. I've been watching 50+ movies a month for the last 20 years. I've seen everything I want to see. Been going back and watching for multiple watches lately. Happened to see Ted and watched it. Horrible. Fuck the Abyss alien bullshit. I don't do alien movies but I'm pretty sure I saw that one.

I don't care for the war movies, horror, and foreign films. There are exceptions but, no, I didn't see Defiance. I just watched the trailer and don't plan on watching it. :0003

Spy Game
is a 2001 American spy film directed by Tony Scott and starring Robert Redford and Brad Pitt. The film grossed $62 million in the United States and $143 million worldwide and received mostly positive reviews from film critics.

In 1991, the US and China are on the verge of a major trade agreement, with the President due to visit China to seal the deal. The CIA learns that its asset Tom Bishop has been arrested at a People's Liberation Army prison in Suzhou and will be executed in 24 hours, unless the US government claims him and bargains for his release. But if the government claims Bishop as an asset, they risk jeopardizing the trade agreement. Bishop was also operating on his own when he was captured, unauthorized by the Agency.

Little Miss Sunshine is one of the best written movies. So good.

Tears of the Sun was actually supposed to be die hard 4 and was re-written. Not a fan.

The Judge is a good idea for a movie, but something doesn't work. It fell flat for me.
