13th Warrior
Awful (s).
Plot (briefly):
Ahmed Ahmedovich goes to distant galaxies, where he meets bearded, unwashed Vikings. A fortune teller tells the Vikings that 12 bearded Vikings and 1 Armenian should go on the journey. The thirteenth is the main character. After some time, listening to the Vikings, he SUDDENLY begins to understand their language, and says to one of the... Vikings, "Don't you dare insult my mother" (or something like that). And then a depressing plot unfolds.
Hmm... 13th Warrior is one of the most awesome movies I've ever seen.
I wonder who found the plot "depressing"?

I'll quote myself:

This morning, I watched the movie "The 13th Warrior."
I have very mixed feelings about it...
Positive: it's a decent take on the so-called "prequel" to Beowulf...
Negative: the movie is somewhat pointless =)). An Arab shows up with the Vikings, fights, and then leaves...

I watched our (Soviet) film "To Paris." It's about how difficult it is to raise a normal son.

I recently watched "Fight Club." I came to a somewhat strange conclusion: The film is good, but it left only negative impressions. And it's one of those films that you don't really want to rewatch.

Отдай свои прошлые сны,
В сомненьях себя обрети,
В бешеном танце душа кружится!
Не думай, что будет потом,
Здесь и сейчас мы живем,
Стань хоть на миг сам собой, слышишь!

Watched "District 9". That's what I call bad luck – the guy had everything and lost it all. I think there will be a second part.
P.S.
The film is good, but it left only negative impressions.
To each their own, but I like it.

I watched "District 9". It was very good, I liked it, and the idea reminded me of the Strugatsky brothers' "Roadside Picnic".

District 9 is probably the best film that was shown in theaters this summer. Yes, the second Transformers movie turned out to be exceptionally spectacular, with good humor that doesn't turn the film into a comedy, and seemingly everything is good, but the plot itself isn't very original or captivating. In District 9, however, the ending is much darker, and personally, the film kept me on edge throughout its second half: I was afraid that one of the main characters might die. It's worth watching.

And they're supposedly planning to make a sequel. There haven't been any announcements.

Oh yes, and the fourth Terminator movie was also shown this summer... But I managed to miss it, although I really should watch it.
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.

In my opinion, it's more of a comedy with mind-blowing action, a typical summer blockbuster to watch with your brain turned off. And for some reason, many people didn't appreciate the humor, although you just need to approach such films with a more relaxed attitude.
As for District 9, everything has already been written above.

Watched "Grey Gardens".

And also - the animated film "Up". There's a moment at the end where the old man opens an album of his deceased beloved and accidentally flips to a page with the inscription "THINGS I WILL DO"...
Very sweet.

Does anyone even go to the movies anymore? Or is that already a thing of the past? :D

I went the other day:rolleyes: We watched "Might & Magic: I Love You," a product of the domestic film industry. It's a light, positive, and romantic movie... but it's ultimately terrible and unrealistic. :) But overall, it leaves a pleasant impression, hope for the future, faith in love, and so on. You can rewatch it, but do you really need to? :rolleyes: But what worries me most right now is the thought that maybe my companion turned out to be a secret fan of Katya Pushkareva :D

I, for example, like to watch any new and good movie in the cinema with a friend. And it's not that expensive – you just need to wake up at 7 am to come to the morning screening, and voila – it's only 50 rubles per person! I watched District 9 that way.
Where do we go?

We do go ;) I personally prefer going to the movies alone, so I can fully enjoy the film ;)

I rewatched the movie Saint of the Slums. I saw it on TV a long time ago... and wow, it's amazing!
Also, I realized where the prayers in the song Nargaroth - Der Satan Ist's come from.

Finally, I found the time and watched "Inhabited Island" and "Clash". What can I say? The film is well-made and very close to the book. But the ending isn't very good. In the book, Maxim and Rudolf didn't have a confrontation.
