MOVIE SUGGESTIONS!!!

Annihilation is honestly one of my all time favorite sci fi movies. I only put Alien above it (which is technically a horror movie wrapped in a sci fi package)

The girl with the dragon tattoo. (Swedish version ONLY!!!)

Downfall, Das Boot

Downfall, it's a really gripping and interesting take on the final days of WW2 told from the German perspective, and as dull as it sounds, the director has created a true work of genius, the only hitch is that it's in German (subtitle movie). If subtitle movies aren't your thing then I'd recommend something a little more upbeat with Hot Fuzz, the editing in that is on another level and it's just an all round solid movie in my opinion.

Jack Ryan

I have a few in mind ... the first one is very hard to find and you may have to buy it on DVD in order to watch it ... Pump Up The Volume (1990) starring Christian Slater as a high school kid who moonlights as a pirate radio DJ named Happy Harry Hardon. This is a tour de force performance and is the one film that Slater has said he would choose if his career had to be defined by a single movie. If you like Alan J Pakula, he did All The President's Men and The Pelican Brief. For Ridley Scott, there are 3: Legend (1986) starring Tom Cruise, Black Rain (1988), and The Duellists -- this is Ridley Scott's first film ever, even before Alien (which was his 2nd) and Blade Runner (his 3rd film) Like John Woo, try on The Killer or Hard Boiled .. the latter is a bullet ballet of gunfire

Jon Bradley

Definitely. One of the best films of the 70’s. Won so many Oscars

Absolutely

Jon Bradley

Such an underrated film

Jon Bradley

It was also a remake of a Hong Kong film. Scorsese said it was the first film of his that actually had a script

ATTACK THE BLOCK. Please.

Mike B

For the down tempo flix... I suggest some Jim Jarmush! Only Lovers Left Alive is my fav. Ghost Dog: the way of the Samurai is one of Forest Whitaker's best IMO.

Amen

The Sting (1973) starring Robert Redford and Paul Newman. Probably the best con/grifter movie ever made

Zoheb Satta

I wanna say hell yes but if he's watching on a laptop or something that's absolutely no way to watch it.

Dustin Bruce

Blood Simple, the debut film by Joel and Ethan Coen

Dustin Bruce

I've asked James about this one and he's seen it already, so it wouldn't be picked for first time reactions which I believe are the only ones we get to vote on. Maybe he'll do a re-watch reaction though one day.

Dustin Bruce

Sarah that is a brilliant choice!!!!!!

Marvelous Dolcy

13 Assassins. (2013) by Takeshi Miike. Very violent, bloody and bonkers samurai film. You havent really done mny Japanese fims so this is an wildcard that I hope felloww Patrons will back me on

Marvelous Dolcy

Chickenelegs

Very difficult choice, but well: The Deer Hunter. One of these films which are of truly golden quality and depth.

Dirty Pretty Things (2002) like Gattaca, it’s a thriller with a love story, the writing is top notch and Chiwetel is absolutely amazing in this. Also like Gattaca it is criminally overlooked.

Jovanni Ruiz

In the Mood for Love It has such amazing cinematography that you may have already seen it, but I recommend it just in case you haven't.

The Invisible

papabexar

Once Were Warriors. It is absolutely brutal, but from a filmmaking and storytelling standpoint, it is so powerful.

Jarrod brehaut

Climax (2018) would make for a great reaction / commentary!

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World

The Talented Mr. Ripley

Mad Max: Fury Road

The Count of Monte Cristo (2002) a fun action flick with incredible cinematography. Stars Jim Caviezel, Guy Pearce, Luis Guzman, Richard Harris, and a young Henry Cavill. Also, the fight scenes in this film are amazing. https://youtu.be/L5kCGkvCKpk.

Do you watch Foreign Language films? This film is in French. Staring Ron Perlman. English title is City of Lost Children. Very beautiful movie written by Jean-Pierre Jeunet, who also wrote Delicatessen and Amelie.

The Men Who Stare At Goats

Cifer

Here's one most people have NOT seen...The SUNSET LIMITED with Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson. Some of the best dialogue you'll ever have the privilege to revel in. From a play by Cormac McCarthy ( NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN). The two actors joust and parry their way throughout the film all the way until the devastating final monologue.

Once upon a time in the west is a must-see for any filmmaker!

Lemur

You should watch Terrence Malick's first five films chronologically - all influential and increasingly experimental - so my suggestion is Badlands (1973)

Grunwalski

Tinker, Tailor, soldier, Spy.

F Yale

Map of the Human Heart (1992)

Christiaan Van den Akker

The Nightingale (2018). Fantastic film and extremely underrated imo

Cum between her cheeks call it a Nutter Buttet

I have but could always rewatch

James Adams

Crossing my fingers that you haven't seen Parasite yet, but you might have

Blood Simple- first coen brothers movie from 1984. One of my favorite thrillers ever- incredibly suspenseful and led by Frances McDormand

Mommy

Once upon a time in the west

Paul Steffens

This movie so stayed with me when I first saw. Esp. the ending.

Penultimate Tommy Wiseau

This was such a sweet, sensitive, and hopeful movie, for me.

American Made or Eyes Wide Shut. Both very different but amazing movies with great performances by Tom Cruise

BABY DRIVER

Swindle

Never Rarely Sometimes Always (2020) literally no one saw this and it’s so beautiful and amazing I think you’d like it.

harpyangel47

tbh it might be his best, goes under the radar compared to his heavy hitters

nick moose

Mad Max Fury Road is one of my favorite action movies and you don't really need to have seen the other ones either..

Superpotroast

IDK if there will be much of an audience for this, and without spoiling the gimmick, but the camerawork along with the rhythm & storytelling of Ron Fricke's Samsara (2011) was phenomenal to take in.

Penultimate Tommy Wiseau

wouldn’t mind a rewatch of it honestly. we’ll see!

James Adams

The Ghost Writer (2010). Roman Polanski film with Ewan Mcgregor and Pierce Brosnan. Very underrated and unknown thriller

Spotlight

I’m going to subtly enjoy this meme of The Weeknd to myself then. >.>

James Adams

Another Round (2019). I watched this yesterday and loved Mads Mikkelsen performance.

Yessica C

Second The Departed if you've never seen it.

Mark Pingitore

That movie seemed to be a bit of a disappointment

River's Edge, 1987

Jason Cooley

Incendies by Denis Villenueve!!! You’ll love itb

Mitchy D

Easily top 5 maybe top 3 Michael Mann film

Such a cool looking film

YES. This movie is arguably the best western ever made. Redford and Newman are awesome in it

Still pulling for Call Me By Your Name. I'd also like to see you react to The Graduate (1967 -- young Dustin Hoffman with Anne Bancroft), or Shallow Grave (1994 -- early Ewan McGregor).

Walder Frey

If he hasn't seen it.. hell yes!

Salmonero

Only God Forgives. It’s got your boy Gosling and directed by Refn who also did Drive.

George Ray

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. You won’t regret it!

Badlands

Trevor Harty

The Departed. Best Scorsese film ever made. Won 4 Oscars, including best picture and best director

Runaway Train

Need more '80s John Carpenter. Big Trouble In Little China and They Live are both great

Eric Gray

I agree!!! I love that movie so much. The editing is impeccable too. It’s 2006 btw ☺️
