Movie recommendation

[Carpenter]

'Hanna' definitely caught my interest, waiting for the 720p version of it though. Fuck CAMs.

Already seen a good quality non cam version. You're doing it wrong.

Maybe, but I prefer 720p versions, so I'm not really interested in 480p or whatever it is. I don't want to rust my eyes with 480p.

E: Rofl I found one.

So I watched Hanna and it was such a disappointment apart from the starting scenes. It got sort of boring in midway and the ending was rather boring as well.

Fighting scenes were nice, especially when you keep in mind that it was a young girl doing all that shit, so unreal but still epic. To me actors/actresses were more or less unfamiliar but acting wasn't that bad, definitely worth watching acting wise.

Eric Banna and Cate Blanchett are unfamiliar?

Yeah at least for me they are, first movie from Blanchett so far and can't recall a movie that I would've watched from Banna either.

Hanna feels like a worse version of Nikita by Luc Besson.

I saw that movie, Leon (The Professional), a long time ago. It was a good movie and I thought that Natalie Portman did a great job of playing the role of a cute kid who had a crush on that guy. It was kind of sweet even though the two characters were in a deranged situation.

I didn't know that the kid was Natalie Portman either. She's a good actress.

[Gota]

That guy stole Leon's money wtf...

[Panda]

I thought that was messed up too, but Leon was dead, so it's not like he could come back and kill him or anything.

Just watched Super 8. Thoroughly disappointed.

[Gota]

What movie am i thinking of?

also,Super 8 is awesome, you dumb.

also,Super 8 is awesome, you dumb.

Took ages for anything to happen and very little happened when it did. It's a kid's movie, around ages 8-12. Also very dark, I couldn't see what was going on half the time. Just bored me to death though, even in the action scenes. It just looked really low budget and cheap too. I guess that also explains why they couldn't get any top actors.

[Gota]

Oh, kill yourself.
Go watch Matrix sequels.

they violated the every 3 mins a explosion law... this cant be a good movie therefore

jazcash's review makes me want to see it more

for the most part i'm keen on seeing new actors; i'm not wowed easily by action or special effects; it's always been my impression that a higher budget in most cases makes the director have less control of the product (he answers to the investors) although 50 million dollars isn't exactly "low"...

although i gotta say too some of the criticism is flawed; its got a kids rating over here at least, and is a suspense/mystery movie rather than action (hence slowness and boredom) so perhaps the movie is not so much to blame as are misleading advertising campaigns and trailers

is there a movie you can think of that is comparable in theme/execution that you feel didn't fail as hard? lets set some standards here

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1740707/ any good?

The kid actors in Super 8 are amazing...IMO they will be much more popular actors from now on.

Super 8 is definitely aimed at kids much like E.T was.
This is E.T meets 21st century.

I cant believe it passed under the radar like this.
I guess kids/teenagers today cant appreciate an "adventure" movie.
If there is no action and shooting for 5 minutes they get bored.

Young boys like watching action and stuff blowing up. Not a few prepubescents that touch an alien's heart, save the world and fall in love.

I just didn't get what the movie was trying to be. Don't get me wrong, I'm not some action-fanatic that discards a movie as crap if it doesn't have enough action in it. I love tons of movies that are purely dialogue with no action at all. But when you have a movie like this with big nasty aliens killing people, I'd at least like to see it happen.

Everything about the movie just gave me the impression it was going to get a lot deeper than it was, but it pretty much went as the standard kid's movie does.

A couple kids make a huge discovery, try to hide it from their parents and sort it all out themselves. They eventually come face to face with whatever it is they're after and they're just about to die when suddenly everything gets better and they all make out.

Maybe it's just me being too critical of a kid's movie when I'm too old to enjoy it, but I honestly thought it was for adults until about 15 minutes in. Just everything: the dark and mystified looking preview, the small demo in Portal 2, I had no idea it was a child's movie. Maybe I'd have enjoyed it more if I was 10 years younger.
