I hope to God that you mean the Cronenberg film and not that Paul Haggis tripe.

 

[Tonka]

True Lies
Commando
Downfall

True Lies
Commando
Downfall

Are you for real? Downfall is the only movie worth mentioning.

<insert face palm pic here>

I hope to God you're drunk or high because that is the dumbest statement i've heard on here in regards to movies in referring to what is not only a superb film but also a best picture winner.

 

[El Freako]

True Lies
Commando
Downfall

Oh dear god!

You can't seriously be suggesting that any of Arnie's films are better than some of the classics that have been posted here? And I'm including Pumping Iron in that list.

EPIC TONKA FAIL.

I'm 100% sober. The movie is a wrecking ball of a social statement, unnecessarily hammering its audience over the head with a thinly developed message all while using one of the most culturally integrated cities in America as a vehicle to do so. It's cheap, manipulative, and overtly preachy, filled to the brim with stereotypes and offering nothing new on the philosophy of racism. Arguably the worst Best Picture winner in the history of the awards and certainly of the past twenty years.

You're going to have to do better than spout off vague, hyperbolist statements and citing the Academy, junior. I won't even bother going into Haggis' lack of skill as a lensman and the one dimensional performances of most of the actors (the only one worth a damn in the whole thing was Michael Pena).

and i don't understand why you play this off as a bad thing. the social statement it makes with it's characters and how their roles intertwine is not only the motivation for the title but offers an intriguing perspective on how what you do can (greatly) affect the lives of others. why you think the city it takes place in has a negative impact on the film is beyond me, but calling the message it gives as "thinly developed" is at the least just unobservant as to how the movie tries to relate each character and blends all these stories into one.

It's cheap, manipulative, and overtly preachy,

cheap? the storyline/message may be a little cliche, but it doesn't take away from the actual story or it's characters. i don't get the manipulative comment at all, but i can see how you say it is a little preachy.

filled to the brim with stereotypes and offering nothing new on the philosophy of racism. Arguably the worst Best Picture winner in the history of the awards and certainly of the past twenty years.

well yes it does have a ton of sterotypes and i can see how it may no allow you to identify with the characters if there just portrayed as such.

i've noticed with you that if a movie, such as this one, tries to delve into an issue such as racism, and doesn't offer anything overly expansive or different than it's predecessors that have also covered the same topic, you instantly dislike it. several times i remember reading some reviews by you and you mention "it doesn't offer anything new" (essentially) and it's a significant negative score against the movie for yourself.

i don't see it that way. that's not to say i like repetitive movies that all say the same thing, but this movie tastefully and intricately shows the lives of these people and how they are affected by violence, racism, etc. it's not the most original movie ever, but it's done much better than other movies with the same message. the content may not be different, but the quality is.

You're going to have to do better than spout off vague, hyperbolist statements and citing the Academy,

i just wanted to bring to your attention how silly you sounded calling that film "tripe"

junior.

*sigh*

i didn't see any issues with the acting. of course some of the roles were one dimensional, but this should fall under your issue with the sterotyping not with the acting. if your told to act like a ghetto thief or like an uppity spoiled housewife, you do what your told. since the film was covering so many different lives at once it was hard to delve into the characters at a deeper level. that's not the actors' fault.

and again with the lensman ship, i thought it was a visually beautiful film to watch so
