February Movie Poll
Added 2021-02-06 07:39:02 +0000 UTCPICK FOUR.
Already decided to watch American Psycho and Black Mass as my dealer's choices for the month.
I shall be cultivating a list of movies I've watched to make this simpler for everyone. My bad for not doing it sooner. I've seen Knives Out, btw... a few times at this point... one of my favorite movies of modern times (and I've seen No Country for Old Men, which was really good)

I like Miller's Crossing, but I'd prefer Reservoir Dogs or New Jack City. Maybe I owe Miller's Crossing another look.

2021-02-08 02:26:23 +0000 UTCHaven't seen it, couldn't get my vote for something I haven't seen. I'll be checking it out. Hopefully there are some that will watch Gattaca and Heavy Metal so they can get more votes.

2021-02-07 02:50:49 +0000 UTCOkay, gotta chime in again to say: Bone Tomahawk being in last place is criminal. Didn't expect it to win, but LAST PLACE? Excuse me while I drum up some more outrage. Career bests from Kurt Russel and Mat-- Jack from Lost, good showing from everyone's favorite WCW champion David Arquette, and the gnarliest death scenes since... well, the gnarliest death scenes.

2021-02-07 00:39:55 +0000 UTCyeah Unforgiven is a socio-clutural requirement in Film or TV circles. Considered a modern classic. Not sayn its on my top all-time favs, it’s just that if it was literary discourse - it’s aiken to that in film. I think we watched in film class. Road to P is one of Paul Newman’s last. Cinematography is its own character. Stacked cast. Period mob movie, u cant go wrong

2021-02-06 15:18:12 +0000 UTCOkay, I can accept that my Coen-brothers, 90s gangster film (Miller's Crossing) is dead in the water. It's traumatic, but I can accept it. But, Jimmy, for you to then dealer pick a different gangster movie... that's going overboard, mate! A man can only tolerate so much trauma...

2021-02-06 14:19:21 +0000 UTCYou guys are killing me with the lack of love for Ronin. Best car chase scene since the French Connection and a fantastic thriller as a whole! Please give me some more votes!

2021-02-06 13:23:59 +0000 UTCI'm not sure Eternal Sunshine is your thing. But since it's in my top 5 movies of all time, of course it deserves a vote. One of the greatest and most intelligent Scripts ever written. Everyone here should watch it.

2021-02-06 10:25:21 +0000 UTCThanx for including road to perdition again 😍 it didn't do too bad last poll but this time maybe it has a chance to win. Also Gattaca...a sci-fi classic and a must-see for everyone! I've seen it multiple times over the years and loved it more and more everytime I saw it. Both of these brilliant movies deserve your votes Jude Law is amazing in both of them.

2021-02-06 10:15:18 +0000 UTCPlease vote Road to perdition ☺

2021-02-06 10:08:15 +0000 UTCThat 'one' scene you mentioned is one of the greatest achievements in cinematography I"ve ever seen. This movie is so underrated. It was Sam Mendes follow up movie three years after his directing debut "american beauty" won five academy awards, including best picture and directing. I guess most people were expecting something else from him after American Beauty, which is why besides cimematography this movie didn't win anything and no one talked about it. This movie and its directing is absolutely brilliant.

2021-02-06 10:05:18 +0000 UTCI recently watched The Death of Stalin, it's a wholly entertaining black comedy by the guy behind The Thick of It & Veep. A thoroughly enjoyable satire on the days after Stalin's death.

2021-02-06 09:58:09 +0000 UTCScott Pilgrim vs. The World is a pretty fun film. Crazy, over the top hijinks, a cast full of talent and a strong storyline. One of the best performances of Michael Cera's career.
Jamie Rees
2021-02-06 09:55:30 +0000 UTC28 Days Later is a very intelligent and unconventional zombie film. Cillian Murphy early in his career in a taught, brutal but never boring take on the zombie apocalypse.

2021-02-06 09:51:21 +0000 UTCRoad to Perdition was very much under the radar but I still remember most of it to this day. Going out on a limp and feeling that movie would be a somewhat perfect fit for you guys as well :-)

2021-02-06 09:25:51 +0000 UTCOkay folks hear me out: you owe it to yourselves to choose Road to Perdition and Unforgiven, even if you haven't seen them. Let me start with Unforgiven. Directed by and starring Clint Eastwood, this is not your grandpa's cheesy western. It won Best Picture in 1992, one of the only westerns to win that distinction, and it deserved it. Amazing performances from Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, Gene Hackman, AND Richard Harris. Top to bottom a fantastic film. It isn't often a western gives you a real meditation on what it really means to kill a man. And then there's Road to Perdition, which didn't get nearly enough attention when it came out and still doesn't. A unique and excellent performance by Tom Hanks, but also pre-Bond Daniel Craig, early Jude Law, and the last, amazing performance of Paul Newman. Just thinking about some of the scenes from this film gives me chills. If you've seen it, the one in the rain? Remember? Gattaca should probably also win, but I'm only shilling for these two. :)
