What's The Latest Film You Have Seen?

Such a sweet little love story this. Certainly a lot less sinister than its English translation 'fear eats the soul' makes out anyway.

First one of his I've seen myself, but I've heard his style's a bit difficult, as in he has a habit of kinda meandering with the narrative, going for overly-long shots and extended silences a lot (which shows in the one I just saw if I'm honest). Definitely gonna see King Of the Road or whatever it's called when I can round to it though.

I watched the Matrix over the weekend and although I have seen it before, I never really understood it as well as I did that night. After the newfound incredible mindfuck I received, I decided to rewatch this as well, which only increases the said mindfuck about 100%. The animation in every short is incredible, and the stories continue to answer many questions left unanswered in the movie. Although the rest of the trilogy is extremely shitty, I'll probably watch them soon anyway because it's been a while.

I don't want to start a huge debate since I've done it so many times before, but seriously, Reloaded and Revolutions were NOT that bad. What did everyone expect? They weren't the crazy movie revolution that the original was, but they were really entertaining and concluded the story. I will defend those movies until the end, so if another debate occurs, then it occurs...

I think a problem with the Matrix series was that by the time the sequels hit the cinema, the first film had been cool for so long, people had finally gotten tired of it and all the trench-coat wearing Neo wannabes. The whole franchise got cheesy and tiresome before the second movie hit the silver screen .. At least that was how I felt here.

I remember I saw the first Pirates of the Caribbean on the cinema around the same-ish time I saw Reloaded. I liked Pirates so much more! Granted, I still find the Matrix sequels to be entertaining, if a bit embarassing.
