yeah... that s a a list, well, I havent seen children of men, but the other four are among my favourites, so I will give it a chance, totally agree about eric bana ´s perfomce in chopper, its brutal
by the way, my favourite film of the decade is the wayward cloud
I was sort of with you until Crank. I have not seen the other films on this list. I have Children of Men and Crank. Crank is so average though. I agree with Children of Men but calling Crank a masterpiece is insane. It's just non stop action for 2 hours. How is that a masterpiece. That's like having a 2 hour death scene in a horror movie. It's fine for a while until you see there is no story and all the characters are terrible. So.... no There WIll Be Blood, but Crank is a masterpiece?? OK.
I was really suprised to find children of men on this list. Only because most people have never heard of this film. Its pretty fucking good. As is battle royal. Pretty much the only 2 movies ive seen on the list XD
... oh, yes, forgot to mention 'Let the Right One In'--unbelievable, jaw-dropping fantastic artistry, brilliant acting and direction. Think you can squeeze this one in between the number 1 and 2? Don't think Clive will mind.
I'm making note of the three I haven't seen: Dead Man's Shoes, Chopper, and Crank. I suspect your positive reviews are 'culturally adept' in terms of the reality factor: disturbing and intelligent films--where human fallibility is still meaningful and raw--like 'Breaking Bad'.
'Children of Men'--Great... but tired of apocalypse themes. Will humanity survive? Silly question. Is there hope? Take a philosophy class. Read 'The Stand'--uncut. Is humanity worth saving? Hmm--is Clive Owen single?
Thanks for the non-traditional line-up and honesty. Glad to see 'Brokeback' and 'There Will be Blood' dismissed--finally... I fell asleep before the blood arrived. Yawn.
Battle Royal is an interesting inclusion--I enjoyed 95% of it--seriously, genuinely enjoyed the grand majority of it. Which is why the last cheesy 5% pissed all over the movie. I have no interest in cheesy teen-love BS after a kiddie massacre. This film was an inch away from greatness--an inch full of piss-poor judgment.
in 1820 a man named fredrick osloft one day he was working in his lab until a ghost came by and killed him the next morning fredrick was nowhere to be seen 100 years later two boys went in the lab as a dare the boys where never seen again where aparently murdered now that u have read this comment tonight when u go to sleep the two boys and fredrick will come and murder you but you can stop this by posting this comment on 5 other videos by midnight im sorry i relly hate these things :'( 5 hour
Apart from the BATTLE ROYALE! Shout, I don't really like the "clippy" (WTF is that? You know what I mean ;P ) nature of this vid, I think you're at your best when can monologue without interruptions :)
Much respect for putting Battle Royale in there. Possibly my fave of all time.
Also man, I'm loving your vids. You should do a weekly/monthy round up of films released or that you've watch. Theres defo an audiance for it and it could help raise your profile.

Is The Hunger Games essentially the American remake of Battle Royale?
Don't mention the book, I said "essentially"!

You only have three videos dude. Maybe if you posted some replies you might generate more interest in yourself. Look at communitychannel.

Dead Man's Shoes is one of my favourite films. Amazing.

Disappointed you didn't go for any Kaufman.
As someone who obviously knows about his films, I don't think this is your -true- top 5, just one that draws attention.
samcheese34 2 years ago
Are any of those films better than Let The Right One In?
Did Crank really redefine the action genre in a more artiscally or even commercially applaudable manner than District 9 did with the blockbuster?
