Rate The Last Movie You Saw

(For this month's War theme.)

Lawrence of Arabia 1962 David Lean (Re-watch)

'The film as a whole is widely considered a masterpiece of world cinema and one of the greatest films ever made. Additionally, its visual style has influenced many directors, including George Lucas, Sam Peckinpah, Stanley Kubrick, Martin Scorsese, Ridley Scott, Brian De Palma, Oliver Stone, and Steven Spielberg, who called the film a "miracle".'

For me, the first half 100/100, 'The epic of all epics'..
Overall

The Bitter Tea of General Yen (1932)

After Hours, strong 8 out of 10. I love movies that have a slight sense of surrealism to them, and After Hours was perfect in that aspect.

Scum - 7/10
Good movie, but too sadistic. I was very cheerful every time the oppressed retaliated.

6/10



i'm not sure why but this movie was mindblowing to me.
it's because of his minimalism, i guess.

how do you guys do those pocporn ratings?

like this..if half star added to any whole box, just use .5, as seen above.

Nice review, CR. It's an enjoyable film by a bunch of pros. Redford underplayed the part perfectly, and reminded everybody that he could act a little.. As you say, good send off to a legendary guy.

Tokyo Idols (2017)



It is an exercise of bigotry of the lowest caliber. This "documentary" portrays a facet of Japanese culture as if it were some kind of disturbing activity that should not exist. Of course, it has zero objectivity and presents the concept of idol from a consistently condescending perspective. I think about this documentary as analogous to the perspective of racist Europeans when they were describing primitive African tribes: a completely arrogant perspective that sees its subject as something disgusting.

In cinematic terms is very mediocre: it feels like a poorly edited YouTube video rather than a documentary and it only interviews 2 people 90% of the time: one idol and one of her fans, as if a sample of 2 people (which might be paid artists from all I know) could describe the millions of people who participate in idol culture. Essentially a piece of ethnocentric propaganda that is an insult of the whole subculture.

Rating: 0/10
