I have seen the occasional thread every few months revolving around /k/ adjacent movie recommendations, but have any of you watched any of these movies and thought "wow, that was dogshit."For me personally, the way of the gun was terrible. It is roughly a 120 minute long movie, and it has about 20-30 minutes of actual gun related scenes, which were pretty awesome, but the rest of the movie was dedicated to an uninteresting plot revolving around an annoying pregnant woman that I really wished would have been shot early, and the movie had an incredibly unsatisfying ending.
This movie was dildos
/k/ recommended siege of jabotville a while back and it was boring as fuck
>>65412978This is a film, you got filtered.>>65413144>>65413255These both suck.Pic related is good.Also>Highway Men>Hell or High Water>No Country>The Duellists>Threads>Tropa de Elite
>>65413310Fugg, I misread the thread. Someone mentioned pic related once. I turned it off after less than 10 minutes
>>65413144if for nothing else, it was good for the cereal aisle scene
>>65412978the way of the gun insists on itself. it's pretentious farthouse schlock repackaged for gun nerds, so they can't see it for what it really is. and they don't even use any cool guns, not one glock, beretta, m4, or ak during the entire film.
>>65413365Galil is AK
>>65413310>Hell or High WaterAnother one of Sheridan's butt-huffer movies. Aside from having Jeff Bridges, idk what there is to like about it. Mediocre in everyway, the gun fights, the action, the dialogue. It's just meh.
>>65413819Ben Foster is the movie.
>>65412978I remember you from that other thread. Are you just gonna keep making threads shitting on way of the gun for the next few months trying to meme away decades of it being accepted board culture now? In b4, what other thread? I'm a unique different person, everyone hates this movie!!1!
>>65412978obscure but still trash
>>65412978
>>65414035Damn dog. That's cold.
>>65414117I'm pretty sure it's contrarians just trying to piss off /k/ommandos by stating blatantly wrong opinions as correct
>bad /k/ moviesay less twin fr
>>65413365>not one glock, beretta, m4, or ak during the entire filmI was sure you were shitposting in the first sentence, then I wondered if you were serious, then I realised you were shitposting.
>>65414018>Are you just gonna keep making threads shitting on way of the gunI think it's just rage bait for engagement/trolling.
>>65414160>i need the cringiest movie you have... no that's too cringe
I've been meaning to watch this. Is it bad?
>>65414284Was this the movie where they couldn't even budget a Bradley, instead they mocked one up out of a M113 or something?
>>65412978>>65413365The action was good, but it’s so obviously trying too hard to copy Tarantino. The characters don’t have real names and are sort of archetypes, everyone is an asshole and they all speak like snarky film snobs. At least in Tarantino’s case, he got good actors who could make those performances work.
>>65414588>James Caan and Benicio Del Toro are bad actorsYou're trying way to hard or are legitimately very stupid
>>65414284this movie is a complete waste of time. it's basically half a gunfight extended out into an entire movie, so fucking lame. I'll summarize the movie for you: unit enters a town or village for some mission, get ambushed and take cover inside a house, hide there until backup comes to rescue them. then the movie ends. in fact, this film makes the way of the gun look like heat, that's how gay it is.
>>65412978Heat is just 2 great gunfights in a nearly 3 hour long soap opera. Without looking it up, can anyone actually name any of the characters and not refer to them by the actor's name? Heck I'll settle for the galil guy from the major heist scene, either the character or actor name. Otherwise the movie is a GREAT ASS
>>6541428428 Days Later writer and a retired Navy SEAL collabed to create one of the most immersive depictions of the GWOT in Iraq. Yeah I'm thinking it was kino af.One of the SEALs depicted was concussed so bad he has no memory of the day. So out of all his engagements in Iraq, Mendoza picked this day in Ramadi to recreate as faithfully as possible to give him some idea of what happened.It's more like Das Boot than Platoon. The whole movie spans a one-day operation for the SEALs as they set up an OP in an Iraqi home that gets besieged.I am an A24 hater generally, but this is worth a watch. If for nothing else than to see SEALs wearing UCP.
>>65414284>Alex GarlandI'd pass
>>65414588Do you say early Guy Ritchie is also trying too hard to be Tarantino?
>>65414636I could name Val Kilmer's character and Tom Sizemore's. I cannot name Deniro.
IDK that anyone recommended this. The cover looks like a B movie because it is one. Just low budget, badly acted, story was weak etc.
>>65414636waingrobut that's it
>>65414604Del Toro was given bad direction and Caan was good, but he was playing a fundamentally tropey character.>>65414655Of course, as much as I hate the prick, he along with Fincher and the Coen Brothers were some of the biggest influences on action cinema in the 90s and 2000s.
>>65414686I saw this, the bald guy is crying for like 90% of it
>>65414722I was gonna argue, but you're mostly right. He is an auteur. He makes scenes that may work in novels but supposedly shouldn't work in movies, work.
Looks promising.
>>65414636heat is insane you moron, if you can't appreciate the 'soap opera' you have no understanding of cinematography or visual storytelling, atmosphere, or even history, due to the magnificent time capsule the film provides of early '90s LA. the character you're talking about is Michael Cherito, there's also Neil McCauley, the useless spic Trejo, detective Vincent Hanna. totally forgot Val Kilmer's character's name. so DON'T WASTE MY MOTHERFUCKIN TIME!!
>>65414886That one is the best war movie ever made, a real masterpiece of fillmaking and Seagals' chair fu game is on point
>>65414686>thought you were talking shit about Outpost>The Outpost Oh. But be sure to watch this one.
>>65412978Every time I watch this movie the plot just sounds like >/k/ goes to Iraq, but ends up in Mexico
>>65415003Do we score some panocha gordita?
This shotgun was in The Long Kiss Goodnight.
>>65415012I searched up "panocha gordita" and did not expect that. Also yeah.The entire thing is on Youtube as I just found out>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0rQWN3GHts&t=1253s
>>65415016That's fucking baller.
>>65415030Kek. Based. Danke, /k/omrade.
>>65415016
Dirty Harry. The model 29 is cool, and "the line" is badass, but I was pretty disappointed when I finally watched the thing.
>>65415225Magnum Force was better.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgqTrxPHkBY
>>65412978>an incredibly unsatisfying ending.That's part of the point. Ryan Felipe said so in monologue, but you have no attention span.>>65414887You should watch "Manhunter" and "To Live and Die in LA" by Michael Mann. BUT NOT ON MY MOTHA FUCKIN TV!
>>65415626to live and die in la is actually made by bill friedkin, but both are great films. i love the soundtrack in to live in die in la.
felt a little ill from the edit
>>65412978Fuck you, The Way of the Gun is one of the best movies ever made!
How does 4chan know I like goth girl porn?
>>65414160The cheek clapping cold opening was really funny when we picked this for family movie night. My mom going cartoon for the remote was hilarious.
>>65415667This shit pisses me off more than it should.
Bad /k/ino recommendation>golgo 13: the profesional (1984)Snipes a former nazi across a city through a bullet proof window by shooting full auto from the shoulder. Really retarded. Really good.
>>65417211Can recommend. Will lure you to the height of ecstasy.
Insultingly bad, featuring thieves stealing an F-117 by infiltrating a C-5 via an A2A refuelling boom off of a KC-10.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDt3AqRtKbg
>>65412978Whine if you want, you know I'm right.
>>65417481Full Metal Jackin' it.
>>65417481nah, still one of my favorite movies. you're just a pleb
>>65415626mann wishes he made to live and dieboth certified Peterskino for sure though
>>65417655it sucked because it was a documentary shoehorned into a feature-length film. If it was an 8 hour 4 part miniseries like Shogun it would have been great.
>>65415626The part in the climax of Manhunter where he racks the shotgun and the bass on In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida is spazzing out and he's just blasting cops with quick cuts and loops is one of the coolest fucking things I have ever seen in my life.
>>65413819You're a credit to your generation
>>65415689>family movie nightI picked Don't Mess With The Zohan back in 2008/2009. I didn't know they'd have like 3 minutes of Adam Sandler sensually grinding on old ladies.
>>65417913That scene was awesome>>65417978I'm a 38 year old boomer, ya chickenshit
>>65417960I heard to prepare for his role Brad Pitt shoved the entire length of Fury's main gun, in his rectum.
OP is a faggot.The Way of the Gun is one of the most /k/ movies ever and oldfags know this shit.
>>65418622nah, that's a misconception, Brad Pitt did that for fun
>>65417686>>65415648Forgive me, I have taste though I'm not an autistic cinephile.>>65417913God tier cuts >>65414588Reservoir Dogs was good, but everything else Terantino did was slop for dumb dumbs.
>>65418855Reservoir Dogs had some great S&W 659 action. I still watch pic related scene and can't believe how fast he empties that mag.
>>65418877Definitely one of the great panic magdumps in cinema history.
>>65418950>panic magdumpsThe way that he's not even remotely trying to use sights does sell that.
>>65417481full metal jacket is kino but it's also interesting because kubrick was known for being an autistic freak for minute details in his films but full metal jacket was full of technical goofs and historical anachronisms, particularly concerning weaponry. my favorite scene is when they're all just hanging around with that dead gook they brought back to their chill out zone. if i were there i would have definitely put my kabar through at least one of his eyes and carved his cheeks open.
>>65414686Is this the one where everyone has a weird red light coming out of their headlamp all the time? Not gonna lie that shit would look really cool if they weren't in ACUs.
>>65414160This is fun as a generic superhero movie>>65417481I agree>>65412978Sicario was enjoyable for me, ONCEThe twist was alright, 100% foreseeable but nonetheless enjoyableOverall however it was very womanly>hurrdurr extrajudicially killing narcos is LE BADBlow it out your assIf not for Emily Blunt's acting it would be C-list
>>65419789I wish she was a method actor, and she was acting like she was sucking my cock
>>65418162I believe he's a jew, so I fully expected it
>>65417481It's like the Black Betty of movies
where did you plebs come from? /k/ used to have good taste for movies.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRAR9kvjDzE
>>65412978This is complete garbage but you need gun-kata in your dojo
>>65414160YOU CANT LIKE SILLY FUN BECAUSE….JUST BECAUSE
>>65420113>This is complete garbagefiltered
>>65419789>This is fun as a generic superhero movieIt *is* a comic book movie, it's just that basically nobody has heard of the comic book.In the original, he's being recruited into a league of villains and they're very blatantly villainous, random rape and murder is part of it somehow. I forget most of it now.
>>65419789>>hurrdurr extrajudicially killing narcos is LE BADYou're one of the first anons on /k/ that I've seen take the movie as an unironic condemnation of the "real" strategy being used.I don't exactly disagree with you but most people who use expressions like "it was very womanly" generally consider the film to be condemning that attitude and firmly saying that in the real world, you have to get your hands dirty.These anons will verbatim recite Alejandro's quote about how she will not survive in the narco war because she's not a wolf and this is the land of wolves now.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4HRKN5CZFo>>65420094>/k/ used to have good taste for movies.We still do but we used to too.
>>65420845I did read the comic book, it's basically The Boys, and as you say, they're basically all Homelander and rule the worldFun edgy shitThat's why I said>as a generic superhero moviebecause as an adaptation of the comic book it's as faithful as Disney's Sword In The Stone is an adaptation of Le Morte D'Arthurbut as a standalone property the movie is quite fun and coherent
>>65420113>This is complete garbage but you need gun-kata in your dojoI really do.>>65420778>filteredEh, it is not a high class film.If it weren't such an acid trip, I don't think I'd have managed it.>>65420619>LionessWhat's that like?>>65420865>That's why I saidFair enough, I never knew it was a comic book adaptation until way later, I just thought it was a kind of weird bad movie that was sort of fun in its own way and pretty funny in a few places.I think the critics of it are usually meaning to say that it's shit without realising that it is actually a comic book movie and some of the lower quality traits are actually just genre tropes which are acceptable in context.I agree that it's a wildly divergent adaptation that makes the use of the name pointless, especially because it wasn't a well known IP that bring in hype by its presence.
>>65420861>most people who use expressions like "it was very womanly" generally consider the film to be condemning that attitude and firmly saying that in the real world, you have to get your hands dirtyYeah because they're idiots who can't tell subtext from contextAnd I'm betwixt and betweenI can appreciate the nuances of the question whether it is necessary and right to kill drug smugglers while at the same time being firm that it has to be doneThe "womanly" part of Sicario is not just that it (not so) subtly criticises the tactic, the critique also makes up too much of the film's internal conflict. Emily Blunt, who as the protagonist is the avatar of the film-makers' opinions on the subject, spends too long being too conflicted over slotting a bunch of scumbags, and at the end is too grieved by the outcome (showing that the film-makers do not agree with the tactics). Ditto the entire boo-hoo-woe-is-poor-Mexican-football-kid, if we slot his drug smuggling dad he will be sad, are we the baddies?Fuck that. Blow them all up until they stop coming.
>>65420894>Eh, it is not a high class filmGood acting, classic storyline, tight script, Chekov's Quotes, dash of poetry, gun autism, universal plot, mindless akimbo gun running... it's like a B movie made with A movie talent>If it weren't such an acid tripIt's filmed quite well especially compared to the shakeycam sixty cuts per minute style of Bourne SupremacyI was actually introduced to Equilibrium by a minimalist who loved the movie for its interior designNow Ultraviolet, that was both shit AND an acid trip
>>65412978check out The Wild Bunch. it was one of the first movies where each type of gun has it's own specific sound effect
>>65420615This was such a disappointment>>65420619No one on /k/ would ever recommend this. You can tell from this single pic it is dogshit.
Think Indina Jones but with more guns and less anti fascism.
>>65421064OP said>bad
>>65420906>>65420906>the protagonist is the avatar of the film-makers' opinionsanon, you are a midwit
>>65421296Anon thinks the show trial was meant to prove the righteousness of the defendant.They're probably Christian the way that they identify with the character being crucified.>>65421160>OP said>>badAnd the OP also posted WotG so we're getting some very mixed/ironic signals here.
>>65419768the problem with FMJ is that it was too short. This should have been a documentary series, and so a bunch of shit was just glossed over and left out. This could have been 8 hours long, or 3 seasons long, and it would have been fan fucking tastic.
>>65412978You didn't like when he clocked Sarah Silverman?
>>65414035It does suck
HEAT at home, but it's not that bad actually.
>>65414636>Two great gunfightsI only remember the bank one.
>>65412978Funny I felt the opposite. I really liked the plot with all the different backstabbing parties and the pregnant lady was very sympathetic to me. The worst part of that movie is the intro with the 2 protagonists being obnoxious and then benicio magdumping his galil into a fucking wall
>>65421746>>65421719Wait this was the best part of the intro. This and the speech in the car. The dialogue at the semen donation place was pretty fucking bad but the rest was good.
>>65414160isn't this movie based off an anime
>>65413255I recalled liking it the first time I watched it, being underwhelmed on a rewatch several years later, and then totally souring on it once I watched MajorSamm's documentary on the actual battle, which in fact had almost nothing in common with the movie."Inspired by true events" tier.
>>65414284I enjoyed it, but to say it's the best war film since Black Hawk Down says more about the state of war movies than it does about the quality of this particular film.
>>65421729Honestly better than heat
>>65414636Something about Heat speaks to me, which is why it's one of my favorite movies. But your criticism is correct. I enjoy Mann's movies because he understands how to present firearms, but I'm not sure I'd call any of his movies /k/ movies, because they're not really about the gunfights. You want the /k/ version of Heat? Watch Den of Thieves.
>>65415225>>65415239I like both of these movies, and I think it is essential for anyone unfamiliar with the character to see them in quick succession. Dirty Harry gives you the character, but Magnum Force adds layers and nuance that might otherwise be lost just watching the original.
>>65421729>HEAT at home, but it's not that bad actually.I rewatch large pieces of it from time to time.The only really cringy part for me is when 50c dies in a bro moment with the black cop. Well maybe that and the gangbangers intimidating the prom date but that was funny enough I guess.
>>65421844I liked the enforcer and the dead pool too but sudden impact was crap.
>>65421729Better than Heat and Den of Thieves
No movie gets guns right.
>>65421988Most at least. The only ones that stood out to me as decent were>Band of Brothers >John Wick >Generation Kill
>>65422003>John Wicklol
>>65421988Way of the gun unironically does.
>>65422006It’s pretty cheesy but Keanu did legit training with them and shot them properly with solid technique.
No movie gets realistic shootouts right.
>>65421903Agree on Sudden Impact. Sondra Locke is a shit actress, and not particularly attractive. It is a shame she shacked up with Clint as long as she did, because some of my favorites of his movies have to try and overcome the sheer awfulness that is her screen presence.The Enforcer is not as strong for me as the first two. However, I appreciate it as a historical artifact, a window into an era that is increasingly conveniently forgotten because it is unsuitable to the current progressive narrative. Tyne Daly was also a great choice as the female cop, she does likeable tomboy with a bit of a chip superbly.I've never seen The Dead Pool, which I continue to chastise myself for. Some day.
>>65421729It has low budget gay porn energy
boomer fantasy slop
>>65414636slick and waynegro. i think theres a neil but i couldnt tell you if thats deniro or val.somebody was neil
>>65422085Some of those can be good. How does it rank against, say, RED, or Nobody?How about against the all-time for boomer fantasies: Death Wish?
>>65422129its a tv series and was pretty entertaining. nothing horribly wrong with it. but if you just want gunfights its not that. there are gunfights but the guys not blasting people every ep
>>65422137Is there a show that really lives up to that?Netflix's Punisher rendition delivered very little /k/ino. SEAL Team, while I watched it, would give you decent /k/ino when the team deployed, but you'd spend the other half of the season dealing with typical network TV soap opera bullshit.Good shootouts are expensive, which generally means they're beyond the means of a TV show.
>>65422188Mr inbetween had pretty solid realistic gunplay for a tv show. Its worth watching.
>>65422085>ambushes dude driving with smgwhat else could've happened
there are a few serious kino moments
git ur bubblegum :3
>>65422129Why is that image so fucked up
>>65422027No Country for Old Men
Has a british director ever gotten guns right?
>>65422261Is meme, comrade.
>>65422301
>>65422301I was gonna say Children of Men but the director is Mexican and the movie is just set in England>Hurr u jus like tracking shotsYes. I'm easily pleased and tracking shots are always fucking cool
>>65422307All these death wish pics makes me wish I was dead
>>65422012he learned some stances that look cool on camera, it's CoD "realism"
>>65420778Its a bad movie, but its ok to like some bad movies. I like it, but its still bad!>>65420894>I really do.Unlike this one, this is a stinker and despite Charlize Theron (who is a good actress and can do action movies) it still manages to just be fucking awful all the way through
>>65422356can't believe they even wanted to make a live action out of this
>>65412978Heat was awful. There was a neat shootout scene but other than that, a bunch of guys whining about divorce.
>>65413310
>>65421296this is Story 101 of the morality tale; the protagonist either exemplifies the writers' ideal (Erin Brockovich), or does not and the story is a cautionary tale against their excess (Holden Caulfield)>>65422012I enjoyed the first 2 John Wicks but you have to admit that >>65422347 is correct, it's COD realism where John has video game forcefields (made literal with the bulletproof tux in the 2nd movie) and his enemies don'the always manages to score headshots and his enemies always manage to hit him in the armour and nowhere but>>65422129>REDis comedy not action
>>65413255Just skip everything netflix.
>>65422082>It has low budget gay porn energyAll gay porn is pretty low budget but that certainly doesn't look like any gay porn I've seen.
>>65422244It's boomer slop because it's about a guy who goes around fucking up arseholes who you'd want to fuck up too but he gets away with it because he's just that cool.Which describes quite a few films in this thread.
>>65422356>Charlize Theron (who is a good actress and can do action movies)I rewatch bits of pic rel pretty often. It's a shame there was never a sequel.>>65422517>he always manages to score headshots and his enemies always manage to hit him in the armour and nowhere butThe way that he holds his jacket to be bullet proof really pisses me off but not quite as much as watching guys with guns walk up to grappling distance so that he can grapple them, flip them and shoot them with their own gun.Nobody just stands still and shoots the unarmed man. Though I suppose it would make for a short film.The nightclub scene and a few others aren't so bad for this because it's a chaotic and cluttered environment but the art gallery scene in #2 is atrocious.
>>65422619>The way that he holds his jacket to be bullet proof really pisses me offunder the circumstances it's a smart use of his magic jacket, so I personally forgive thatbut I know what you mean; the magic jacket should never have been introduced to begin with, but it was a necessity forced by the style of action; which leads us to the question of why the shooting choreography had to be like that, and that is where we find the true problem with John Wickeverything else is downstream of the decision to make him basically a Call Of Duty / God Of War protagonistincluding, as you say,>grapple them, flip them and shoot them with their own gun.
>>65422630>everything else is downstream of the decision to make him basically a Call Of Duty / God Of War protagonistEh, I think it was something else, they committed to some BJJ or something gunfu and injected it into scenes where they couldn't write plausibility into it.The Big Hit (of all things) did massively outnumbered shoot outs a bit better with the protagonist semi-plausibly wiping out a room full of guards and that was a deeply unserious movie.https://youtu.be/nXFb6_I9iXY?t=167
>>65420113I'm still embarrassed by the amount of time it took me to give that movie a chance. I would always see it in the video rental store and assume it was a Matrix knock-off. What a fool I was.
>>65422665>I would always see it in the video rental store and assume it was a Matrix knock-offStylistically, it kind of was.
>>65422670Only superficially, I would say. What's /k/'s take on 2 Guns? I haven't seen it in years but I remember enjoying it. Doesn't seem like it ever got a lot of attention.
>>65422676>What's /k/'s take on 2 Guns?it was funtraining day meets oceans whoever? what's not to like
I fucking loved picrel in high school. Had multiple hot topic shirts, memorized the prayer, etc. I even liked the 2nd one. Now? Either you still think it's a good movie because the last time you watched it Bush was still president, or you realize how much you have grown as a person. I guess not every movie needs to be made solely for adults, aint nothing wrong with edgy movies made for young adults and teens, but I was cringing so hard during 80% of this the last time I had to see it.
>>65422670>>65422665It resembles Matrix because they both were inspired by the same original source: Chinese action movies, particularly John Woo but also Bruce Lee and kungfu movies in general. Kurt Wimmer literally looked at kungfu and said "the West should have martial arts* too, but with something All-American: guns guns GUNS"The plot is Fahrenheit 451 meets Brave New World iirc(*he had never heard of HEMA apparently. In another timeline, Equilibrium is about swordsmen dual-wielding rapiers stylishly)
>>65422725It's B-list bullshit saved by David Della Rocco and the bromanceAnd tons of hilarious lines>rule of thumb? Can't do much damage with that can we? Perhaps it should've been a rule of wrist>hey Greenley. Onion bagel. Cream cheese.
>>65422619I kinda defend a lot of the nightclub and other stuff in the first one as that up until a point, not even the mob guys REALLY wanna kill John. Even the dad seems to have the idea that if they can just knock him out, maybe talk some sense into him, sit down with him, etc. that they can work past this. In a way its almost as much of the dad realizing his still-alive son is already dead because of what he did and coming to terms with that as much as it is John trying to find a purpose beyond killing.
>>65422725Decent movie ruined by weird homo shit.
>>65422260I genuinely enjoyed this movie and Kevin costner is the only thing keeping Westerns alive at this point so I don't want to trash him.
>>65422726>It resembles Matrix because they both were inspired by the same original source: Chinese action movies, particularly John Woo but also Bruce Lee and kungfu movies in generalYeah, that's a very plausible take.>>65422730>It's B-list bullshit saved by David Della Rocco and the bromanceI hated him when I first saw it but you're right that he's an important part of the movie, it would just be inconsistently hyper-competent retard-savants bodying gangsters for 90 minutes without him thrown in.>And tons of hilarious linesI laughed my arse off through it. Still do occasionally.Practically everything Willem Dafoe says while he's chewing the scenery is meme-worthy too. I quote him occasionally.
>>65423119>Practically everything Willem Dafoe says while he's chewing the scenery is meme-worthy too. I quote him occasionally.Yep, he has a lot of banger lines too>he shot him from a downward angle>and?>he... shot him from a downward angle...?>*clutches hair*Every time i get this type of copycat answer when i ask questions to a group, i think of this scene
>>65422725Yeah, it's hard to watch
>>65422588I've never actually seen any gay porn, but it seemed like what gay porn would be. Or like, a lifetime movie for men.
>>65422725>edgy movies made for young adults and teensKids aren’t edgy anymore they’re faggots.
Sicario, biggest overrated turd I have seen glazed on here to no end. The only good part of that whole movie is the border scene that is always posted. The rest of the movie is a boring slow paced chore to watch that gives no real payoff.
>>65423426>I've never actually seen any gay pornSo you think it looks like something you've never seen and don't know what that thing would look like anyway?It's not the most useful description anon.
if this post doesnt go through thru chrome somethings fucked up on this channeru
>>65417960Another movie where just watch the best couple scenes on YouTube and continue with the rest of your day
>>65423460very poor bait anon
>>65412978IT WAS SO FUCKING BORINGGGGGGGGGGG
>>65423481I have no idea what people see in that shit that makes them suck it off so much, it was just shit post border scene to end credits
>>65422274This, the movie was alright for the most part but after the hotel scene it just sorta slows down to a lumbering pace. Then the ending was just too fast and had no payoff
>>65422725>>65422730It is just a solid B movie. I remember the first time I saw it, thinking wtf is this shit while my friends around me were going nuts.A million quotes later and i've softened on it in subsequent viewings. "Wrong fuckin alley" "I'll have a Coke" "I killed your cat you druggie bitch." Pretty much anything Rocco says in that scene it memorable for some reason.It's kind of like if Tarantino was good at writing funny dialogue and was a fat Irish guy from Southie. e.g. slightly less sophisticated and [spoiler]less gay rape[/spoiler].The sequel was nothing special but we went to see it in the theaters. Really was missing Rocco.
>>65420894I saw one clip where the Lioness arrives at a base, gets into a shoving match with another girl soldier about "KIAs". The male CO breaks them up, and then she says "I outrank everyone I meet" or something like that. And then she says "Where's your office? It's mine now. Meet me in my office."You tell me.

>>65412978i won't claim it to be really good, but it is very enjoyable for me. they managed to sell me most of the characters as savvy and capable. if the plot was more solid, it could be great. and the long distance shooting scene, handguns vs a rifle was poor>>65414035this. i wanted to see /ourguy/, but i legit felt watching it made me dumber>>65420113yes>>65420906if there was a critique, it went over my head. i understood it as showing how the world is, not debating how it should be. but i agree that on my first watching the movie, i was annoyed by how long the the protagonist spent being confused and conflicted

>>65423663fine, have a doozy
>>65423546Yeah, but I have all the horses
>>65414030I'm sure someone in one of these recommendation threads has recommended this particular film, but just at a quick glance it appears to be an Argentinian movie about the Falklands war, and without watching one second of footage I could tell you it'll be absolute dogshit.
>>65423663Best movie ever. Ever. Waaay fucking better than Beast Master. Waaay.

>>65414886Goddamnit I want to go to some bullshit strip mall karate joint LARPing as Seagal, beg them to teach me his "style" and quote him non stop.
>>65422650https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjFIi3PC2cIFor me, it will probably always be the climax of LA Confidential.
>>65423119>>65423274>>65423416>>65423451>>65423521If I may be a bit self-reflective, I think some of my cringing is less on the movie itself, but implicitly towards myself. The dialogue is bad, but if it is fun or funny and not meant to be 100% cool, I cannot fault that. I am, however, constantly reminded that /I/ thought this was the coolest fucking thing and just due to a general shame of my own self as a teenager have projected more criticism than is due. FWIW I do like the Willem Dafoe stuff, and some of the quotes, but I admit I've also grown up more and my tastes have changed and frankly I dont even like most modern action movies for feeling too manufactured 'cool' even that Bob Odenkirk pair had me cringing the entire time. So tl;dr less about the movie and more about me disappointed in myself. >Troy Duffey was such a colossal asshole fuckup though, the documentary he made is funny how much he fucked himself over.
>>65422317https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2vX7IHg_SEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OPyoJgV_YYI don't blame you, anon. Some of the best action scenes ever put to film are tracking shots.
>>65424770I understand how you feel, but I am thankful I do not feel the same way.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGVdW2tY2LwThis is just as cool today as it was when I was 9. I am cringe, and I am free.
>>65424779Based, fuck the "I've grown as a person" no fun allowed fags, what I like fundamentally hasn't changed much since I was in middle school.
>>65422039Have you seen the gauntlet? It's practically a dirty Harry movie.
>>65424899In my case its more I still like the earnest stuff I loved as a kid, but my adolescent/teenage/young adult years being against stuff is more what I cringe at. Hundreds of Beavers is probably my favorite movie made in years. >I know 2+ were kinda awful but I do unironically love the first Transformers. Animefags and terminal leftists bitch that it isnt like the series which is somehow a work of art that must be taken seriously. But I always appreciated that for once human tech wasnt just useless and a 105mm smoothbore is gonna fuck something up. Maybe some of that was GWOT era "we cant show the military being bad" but I still like that we can actually get shit done.
>>65424770>The dialogue is badIt isn't really>but if it is fun or funny and not meant to be 100% cool, I cannot fault that. I am, however, constantly reminded that /I/ thought this was the coolest fucking thing and just due to a general shame of my own self as a teenager have projected more criticism than is dueI can sort of understand that, in the sense that the movie depicts an idealised form of how early 20s reckless men behave if they thought they could be vigilantes and shitAnd when I was in my early 20s I was just as cocky and quippy and devil-may-care as in the movie. And my mates and I had our share of banger one-liners and adventures too. Yeah there are a couple of things we did that was a little cringe, or dangerous and unnecessary, looking back. But this is a normal part of life.It's the really exaggerated behaviour you see on modern teen "sitcoms" that are totally unrealistic and cringe, in my opinion
>>65422039I just read Sondra lockes wikipedia page and it sounds like she was a total bpd demon.
>>65424969Indeed I have. It was one of the movies I alluded to in my diatribe against Sondra Locke. Before you or others ask, the other two were Every Which Way But Loose and The Outlaw Josey Wales.
>>65425008That wouldn't surprise me. With the exception of Every Which Way But Loose, the characters she plays are either raped or nearly raped, and it is always shown in detail for the audience. Someone had to have a fetish, and I had suspected for many years that it was her. Those chicks tend to have serious issues.
>>65420608>silly funi loved mr. and mrs. smith, wanted was just tacky slop even back then. >>65421761idk
>>65425067You have weird taste. Mr and Mrs smith was nearly as cheesy as Wanted.
>>65415003It's actually a decent comedy and the only fun depiction of US military contemporary with GWOT https://youtu.be/LQYNRO1cTGs?is=WAYp6GxQA8zDBjx7
So basically nobody has brought up a good /k/ movie aside from black cock down
>>65425061>Those chicks tend to have serious issuesthat's the case with nearly all the wilder fetishes, yes>>65424981>I do unironically love the first Transformersit's not bad, if you make sure your yearly Shia Labeouf Permissible Exposure Limit is low before watchingthe Bumblebee movie with Hailee Steinfeld was also pretty decentof course everything pales in comparison to Transformers 1986, which is basically the Atlas holding up the entire franchise to this day>>65424670>saltan seabest gun salesman ever
>>65423460>The rest of the movie is a boring slow paced chore to watch that gives no real payoff.So you would say Sicario was an accurate depiction of multi-agency government operations?>>65415648>>65417686>>65417913I'm rewatching Manhunter again since it's been a few years. Still 11/10. Turns out Tom No, "Francis Dolerhyde", was later cast by Mann as the wheelchair guy in Heat.
>>65425242if you want to see Tom Noonan's biggest performance, watch Robocop 2. which is also a top tier gun movie, one of my favorite scenes is when robocop uses his computer targeting system to point shoot a sniper through his scope with a close up shot of his eye being blown out by his 93R. another one of my favorite films is Killing Zoe which i got for free when i bought the Way of the Gun DVD and which i found to be a much cooler film, though the US release was completely neutered and all the gore was edited away. some day i want to see the unrated french version.
My favorite movie is Blade.
>>65412978https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyFaGOLXKNothis movie is terrible but I still like it
>>65414018pipe down hop. He's right, it's a bad movie and the experience of watching it is similar to having to clean dog shit off a white tennis shoe. It's not /k/-approved just because it has guns in it
>>65424719>You sound like you know a thing or two about gay porn annon, care to share?Not that much really but there's usually some playing in the glory hole booths at saunas and sometimes there's a cinema with something on.As for sharing, /gif/ always has gay threads in whatever kink you're into.
>>65425061>Someone had to have a fetishIt was a genre staple for revenge flicks of that era, it's still not that uncommon, just less explicit.I think Eastwood has a thing for it too, it's in Gran Torino even except that it's off-camera and just the aftermath is shown.
>>65425373>It's not /k/-approved just because it has guns in itCorrect, it's /k/ approved for that and other reasons.
>>65425495NTA, I think he meant that "someone had to have a fetish for casting Sondra as the rapee so consistently", and that someone was probably Sondra herselfthe sexploitation genre is something else
>you insignifiCUNT little fuck!Pottery>the 90s are killing me. I shouldn't have done that. you're not supposed to tell a guy you're gonna kill him no more. you gotta tiptoe through the tulips with these assholes. taking all the fun outta the jobPerfection
>>65425504Yeah, I interpreted anon's post the same way.I just think that Eastwood probably does too. His introduction in High Plains Drifter is him raping Marianna Hill.They were together a long time, I think nearly all her rape scenes are in Eastwood films and Eastwood films afterwards continued to frequently have rape, whether as establishing motive or just gratuitous titillation.
>>65425242Watching paint dry is also realistic too, that doesn’t mean it’s any good or entertaining.
>>65414588Honestly yeah, /k/ hyped WotG to high heaven back in the day and when I finally saw it the movie just came off as being way too up its own ass and was more convoluted than it had any right to be on top of just being jank overall. It was nice seeing the gunplay and Silverman getting socked in the jaw, but Heat it was not.
>>65414606can feel your teenager energy just through that post, goddamn
>>65422650The Big Hit is underrated as fuck.
>>65425367Yeah, that does look like shit.
>>65425495>>65425552You've got a good point there. Maybe that's why they were together for so long. Common interests might be able to overcome the BPDemon drawbacks.
>>65426133>The Big Hit is underrated as fuck.It was hilarious in many parts, partly because it didn't even try to be a serious movie.>>65426206>Maybe that's why they were together for so long. Common interests might be able to overcome the BPDemon drawbacksOr abused girls are drawn to abusive men and they can be hard to leave.He killed her career afterwards including with some fraudulent contracts that prevented her from working while promising to give her work. He paid for that in court eventually and she got fat payouts from him and the studio for pulling that scam.

>>65423475You reason like an Indian
>>65426467And you ask me to comprehend your qualia that are based on concepts you have no phenomenological access to.
>>65415225Very political movie that was just advertised as an action flick.
>>65417481Yeah, for a Kubrick film it really feels like it lacks passion for the subject matter.
>>65414160The funny thing is, the comic is even cringier. The MC is literally Eminem and it's the edgiest thing you can imagine.
>>65420615The trailer line, "What Kind of American Are You?", just being reduced to, "is you a chinese???" by a fat chud sucked.
do you guys even LIKE movies?
>>65425056Micheal cimino got a bad rap but this is one of my favorite movies
>>65427088This is /k/, we're not allowed to like anything
>>65427070>Very political movie that was just advertised as an action flick.A lot of Eastwood films after his cowboy phase were a bit preachy with his politics.
>>65425989The only reason why that movie - besides the cast, was any good was the directors brother was a seal. He did the technical direction.The premise its self was incredibly stupid. The guy was supposingly "your worst nightmare." yet his only real muscle was two body guards that had no idea how to bodyguard.
>>65427079That was the only good scene in the movie. And it was still shit.
>>65415626>>65417913Manhunter sucks other than the shots of 80s Florida.
>>65421903>>65422039Alright, i finally corrected my failure to watch The Dead Pool. It is pretty good. Best car chase I've seen in a long time, even if what I like most is how much it makes me laugh.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RPmz4UxQmg
>>65420615>>65427079>The trailer line, "What Kind of American Are You?",>>65427472>the only good scene in the movie. And it was still shit.I recently skimmed through that movie just for that scene. It was nonsensical trash just like the rest of the movie. Hard to believe that movie had any buzz around it, as it deserved a Razzie (do they still do that?). >What if le heckin' brave journalists were the real hero's against the racist chuds and the journalist hating 'President?'If Reddit were a film.
>>65415626>"To Live and Die in LA" by Michael Mann.>>65415648>to live and die in la is actually made by bill friedkin,>>65417686>mann wishes he made to live and die^This. William Friedkin was a real one, and his interview clips are hilarious. TLADLA mandatory viewing. Mann tends to recycle characters, themes, script ideas, and even dialogue. >Thief>LA Takedown>HEAT>Robbery Homicide
>>65427808bill friedkins isn't exactly beyond reproach either, he made an entire film about being a fag (which I've never seen).
>>65427362hey, don't forget his motley crew of 60 year old balding fat guys who only carry .38s and have never heard of a bulletproof vest.
>>65427832>he made an entire film about being a fag (which I've never seen).True. Not everything he did was a home run. >CruisingMe neither. The stories about the homo protests and outrage during the shooting of the movie, and Pacino being a pain in the ass junkie are funny. I don't think the message of the movie is that fags are amazing and wonderful.
>>65427362>The guy was supposingly "your worst nightmare." yet his only real muscle was two body guards that had no idea how to bodyguard.>>65427840>hey, don't forget his motley crew of 60 year old balding fat guys who only carry .38s and have never heard of a bulletproof vest.Wasn't the 'young' vs. 'old' hired guns supposed to be part of the point in the plot? Wasn't the old criminal boss supposed to just be a money man for cartels or something, and not necessarily a scary mobster?
>>65413365>the way of the gun insists on itself.I know that Family Guy made that phrase popular for mocking empty bloviating film critiquing but honestly that's a pretty apt description for Way of the Gun. McQuarrie desperately wanted to be a new Peckinpah, so he makes a movie that demands to be acknowledged for having a "deep" plot and "grey" characters but the whole thing winds up being a cludged-together jaunt of unlikeable assholes scheming against other unlikeable assholes in the most convoluted way that's narratively possible. It's an utter mess of a movie, but it has good gunplay so this board loves it. To its credit it goes have good shootout scenes, and a great car chase that isn't talked about enough here and some good one-liners. But that doesn't make up for the abject nightmare of its plot.
>>65427832Cruising? It's kino, great look into the really seedy underbelly without being some weepy thing trying to take sides or make martyrs.
>>65413365^this is an obvious shit post>>65427865you are a fart huffing moron. Chill out, it's just a movie.

>>65427983You aren't old enough to post here.
>>65427840That was the plot. The old dudes were what remained of james canns crew most of who were old/dead but loyal and unaffiliated. Since the main guy was just a bank/launderer/front he didnt have real power and couldn't mobilize the mob or whatever organization.

>>65428088>That was the plot.The retard(s) bitching that WoTG's plot is a nonsensical mess don't seem to understand any of it at all. It isn't complicated, or deep, nor does it try to be. It's just a neo-Western shoot'em up.
>>65428118Its sort of 30% ok and kind of interesting with the rest being mostly 70% dogshit IMOGreyhound I really wanted to like because its a really tough part of the WW2 war that saw some really brave, ordinary people taking massive risks to do their job and duty. Then they just manage to fuck up the pacing, needless drama, messed up the suspense and had practically no characterization apart from Tom Hanks pretends to be a captain
>>65428143there was a bunch of easily missable background complexity like blackguy cucking oldguy and knocking up whitewoman who supposedly couldnt have kids.
>>65428151>bunch of easily missable background complexity like blackguy cucking oldguyI thought it was pretty obvious once they were French kissing in the middle of the movie, but maybe it needed some Nolan-esque exposition to make sure the audience understood what that meant?
>>65428147>they just manage to fuck up the pacing, needless drama, messed up the suspense and had practically no characterizationYou didn't like the cartoony Nazi sub captain taunting Tom Hanks in English?
>>65428182Yeah and its not like it would have ever been done either even in the most aberrant of cases Much as zee germans are crazy, they aren't that type of crazy!
>>65428109>you knew damn well it would be liberal TDS dogshit and you watched anywayAs a liberal, I thought it was going to be chud TDS dogshit and passed on it.>>65428118>Im not sure Fury was ever /k/ approvedOh come on, they had tank battles and used beehive rounds and fucked around with fuzing and made sensible preparations and even the retard was actually a well trained retard who was good at his one job.It's a pretty /k/ movie.Plus they shot some nazis and who doesn't like shooting nazis?
>>65423460True, the second part of the movie is empty

>>65425515Tell me a joke.
>enters the final firefight with 1 (one) magazine
>>65435379They did use it to snipe the cop and others at that bar prior to the end fight. Though yeah extra mags would have been game changing.
>>65420608>what the fuck have you done today?!No, it's gay cringe of the highest order
>>65425367The digital animations are better.
>>65435437It also bugs me that he does the long slow methodical check for magazines, which makes sense to do, but not if you knew you came to the fight with just one mag. So did he just forget? I guess maybe you can treat it like a realistic fuck up. He DID forget the mags but didnt waste time to slap his face and say "oh fuck!", he just moves on
>>65435379Mags were probably hard to find in 1999/2000. Also had to nerf the character for story.
>>65435544Its an IMI 332. I bought one because of this movie. Heavy, cumbersome but it looked badass. I dont remember the mag situation. Probably not good it was a pre 1989 ban rifle imported in limited quanities.
>>65435544*323 rifle
>>65414284If I recall in all the fighting the entire movie you see the robots grease like 2 hadjeets. Very shamefulWorst k movie I've seen is that god awful hippie crap Tigerland
>>65422260I always gotta point that this is a spiritual reboot of the wildbunch or a loveletter to it at the very least
>>65414636Galil guy was Cherrito. Anyway, I like Heat both for gunfights and for those prep and planning scenes - watching the film feels a bit like reading a Frederick Forsyth's novel and I enjoy that.Which reminded me that 1973 Day of the Jackal is a good film rarely mentioned here...
>>65425367it's a good movie, better than the 3rd, let down by its B-tier budget and effectsthe plot was basic but it's one of the best horror/alien action movies I've watchedand it has a couple of banger lines>no wonder we're losing this war, everyone's fucking instead of fighting>you just killed a general!>lots of generals out there, flyboy!the political commentary was perhaps too subtle for the target audience: I remember reading a magazine movie review that criticised the movie because "Dax was an anti-Federation murderer but suddenly is venerated as a hero at the end, it doesn't make sense" and I was like, that was the fucking POINT, retard!
>>654361791973 Jackal is good except Forsyth's Jackal is supposed to be one charming Bondesque motherfucker and this guy is a wooden plank
