I think it sucked save for Matt Dillon.



Have you seen all of his films? Which ones have you tried to watch and not liked and why? As a huge Kubrick fan, I'm always curious to hear what people have to say, regardless of whether it's good or bad.



Wow. Two movies in my top ten. IMO, Once Upon a Time in the West is the best Western ever made. Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda were phenomenal, I loved Jason Robards as Cheyenne, the cinematography was staggering, and Morricone's score is one of the most beautiful scores ever made if not THE most beautiful.

As for Once Upon a Time in America: It's my favorite film of all time. I literally have nothing bad to say about a single second in the entire 3+ hours the film runs.
Wall E is impeccably done. Pixar have a knack for sharp satire.

Wall E is pixars statement on the effects of automation on the human race, and the disconnect we are developing between the natural world and the human plight.

Deep and Dark for a family film..but it pulls it off.

Three films that are coming out as summer blockbusters deal with serious topics..

Wall E- over-reliance on automation, destruction of the natural world

HellBoy 2- is the human race worth saving, when they seem to have no respect for anything but themselves?

Dark Knight- post 9/11 fear mongering, anarchy, blowback...
