I most recently watched Train to Busan and I am on this forum right now to tell anyone who comes across this reply to please, please watch it if you haven't already. This movie really showed me the best and worst of humanity. I honestly can't believe they were able to fit so much into a two-hour movie. Hours later, I am still thinking about this movie (obviously, or I wouldn't be posting about this movie right now) and I think this movie will speak to the deepest recess of emotion that hasn't been touched in a long time.

I just watched Eurovision Song of Fire. I give it 5 of 5. It was very interesting and funny.

I just rewatched The Matrix with family. I personally love the movie, even if the main conflict of the movie makes little sense.

georgiaacoleee wrote: 09 Jun 2020, 01:14 The last film I watched was the 1991, The Silence of the Lambs, directed by Jonathon Demme. I remember watching the first 20 minutes of it a while ago, but never watched the whole thing. In my opinion, it wasn't as scary as people made it out to be. On the contrary, it was very eerie and the casting was phenmonal in the aspect of how natural and lifelike the environment and situations felt.

I rate the movie 9/10.
Yeah, it wasn't exactly scary, but more of a thriller. The production team definitely did an excellent job casting, every character felt perfect. Still love that Q Lazzarus song...

Was a really good movie. The book is okay. It's a quick read, but it's not as good when you aren't a young teenager.

I would rate it 5 out of 5 stars. I can see why it became a pop culture classic. It was really good how the ending came full circle to link with the opening.
Great movie. Tarantino knows exactly how to keep the story interesting without giving you all the information.

The last movie I saw was The old Guard, its a new movie on netflix. I would say its a 3 out of 5. If you like action movies this is a good choice for you. The story line was good but could be better.

I thought that was an excellent movie as well.

Very true, I too was surprised how moving the film was in its ruthless portrayal of the way a pandemic hurts humanity. Most zombie films do not tend to take the subject matter seriously. This wasn't the case here.

Haha! Very true. But I don't think everybody has loved it. Most people seem to trash the film. Yet it's a hit on Netflix everywhere. I wonder how things like this occur.

Definitely!! And it also makes you think about how much of life is just a collection of a few key moments and experiences. Like if the little girl hadn't learned that song for her father and she just so happened to have no reason to sing that song in grief in the tunnel...
