No, not everything.

Dreamcatcher was pathetic, I hated it. Secret Window was also bad... I didn't enjoy it at all, it was extremely pradictable and the ending was dissapointing.

My favourites would have to be the shawshank redemption and the greenmile.

I didnt even bother going to see Dream Catcher, I heard it was so awful. I finally saw Usual Suspects btw Callan, you were right, it's absolutely awesome. I am a massive fan of Gabrial Bryne, and Spacey was superb as I expected, and that twist was just gold.

which one is The Stand? do you mean Stand by Me? which is actually one of the best movies ever with kids, and overall.
I cry now everytime I see the ending with River Phoenix dissapearing and knowing that he killed himself. he had such a great future :(




I went to see Dreamcatcher just to see the first Animatrix short :p

the best twists of the 90s at least:
1- The 6th Sence
2- The Usual Suspects
3- Primal Fear
4- Fight Club

I actually enjoyed Rambo. It isn't supposed to be an acting masterpiece, your supposed to take the film for what it is, in this case a fast paced action film. Stallone has acted in some great action films, Demolition Man, Rambo, Rocky I and III. Yes he isn't the best actor around, but he does make entertaining no brainer films. He also wrote the Rocky series, so he has some decent writing skills. You either love him or hate him I guess.

go watch Dungeons and Dragans, it will increase your sense as to what can be described as the worse movie ever. Think Matrix Revolutions is bad? Think again, watch D&D and you'll never be the same man again.

Rocky won best picture, definately his best film. Rambo was a piece crap with explosives, that's why it was so entertaining. The film was never about acting, but being random. Look at 3, he plays a game with a dead lamb in kazakhstan. Did anyone expect that? I sure didn't. He catches a bullet with his mouth (impossible yes) but random. It's the third most randomness movie of all-time.

Seriously, i couldnt agree with that post enough, anyone who thinks Rambo was about the acting needs their eyes checking.

Another example, Commando, lol, what a film....

Yeah, I've been trying to think of them too, but it's hard. I have seen Fight Club and absolutely loved it, I am still to see the 6th sense, I will when I get round to it though.

I suppose it's pretty unfair of me to judge as I've only seen Rambo 1. I thought it was takily made, poor story line and full of anticlimaxes though. The only redeeming feature was Brian Denehey who did his part great.

Aye, I've seen it. I though aspects of it were kinda cool, and that woman was fit, but all in all it was bloody awful I agree.

Back on the subject of The Usual Suspects, if you liked Gabrial Bryne (and I sure did, I think he's a great actor), check out the Coen brother film Miller's Crossing. For me it's the best 30s gangster film since the Godfather 1 and 2, with awesome performaces by Bryne, Finney and Polito, and of course, made by the Coen brothers who I think are fantastic.
