If anyone has a chance to see The Raid: Redemption, run to your theater as soon as possible. Greatest action flick ever... and that's not hyperbole.

I'd suggest staying away from the trailer- walk in cold and expect to be blown away.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

I drove by the theater today and saw the list of movies that were playing. It's no wonder Hollywood is "loosing money." Virtually 0 original ideas, just sequels and remakes for the most part.

A new and original idea for a movie, no way!

I've got a coworker who's into a lot of 50's/60's era movies and shows and stuff like that, and I've watched some clips on Youtube of the 3 Stooges, and they were way better than what I've seen of this remake so far.

Worse than Hunger Games?

In terms of film-making, there's a bunch of movies a whole lot worse than Hunger Games. I think its YA attachment/hype is skewing the perception of how technically sound the film is- direction, screenplay, acting, score, wardrobe, production design. Even my animator buddy was impressed with the CG. There's not a whole lot wrong with THG, imo. Some people are turned off by the quick cuts and shaky camera, but that's personal preference.

Story, acting, plot development......

The actual execution of the film is reasonable, but it wasn't enjoyable.

Not as nauseating as Avatar though.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

technically THG is done very very well (like i said in my first post on it), but the story is stupid/pointless and the acting is very average. It's something I'll never watch again.
