Watched "The Expendables"... Stallone is a complete failure as a director... The film is only worth watching once... The dialogue is meaningless. And, as usual, lots of action)))

When I left the cinema, all I could think was: "Just like old times". The film is nostalgia for the mindless action movies of the 80s and 90s, and nothing more. I didn't think I would feel nostalgic, but...
I also liked the humor in the film; I think it's quite good.

I agree with Sivvi. As an attempt to evoke nostalgia for the VHS era and action movies of that time, it's a success. I don't regret going to see this movie in the cinema.

After reading some very enthusiastic comments, I came to the conclusion that I should watch "The Expendables."
I generally don't like action movies, but I think this one was one of the worst I've ever seen.

I rarely watch movies, but on the advice of a classmate, I decided to watch Green Street Hooligans. The beginning of the film didn't promise anything particularly interesting or epic, and I was already starting to think I would be disappointed, but that was just the beginning...
I really liked the movie; it doesn't have the kind of pompousness that is typical of action movies, science fiction, and the like. Essentially, it's a story about real people and real life, and perhaps that's what I liked about it.
By the middle of the film, it became clear that things wouldn't end well, and that's exactly what happened. One of the main characters died near the end of the film, but the story couldn't have developed any other way, as it is, after all, a drama. The film ends not with a funeral, but with a more than logical, for a film about the darker side of football, song-chant of football hooligans.

Rajon.N9.2009.D.DVDRip.ELEKTRI4KA.avi, a decent movie. I watched it with interest. Good.

I recently watched two comedies, and now I'll share my thoughts on them. The first film is Vampires Suck, a parody of the currently popular "Twilight" among teenagers. Overall, it's a pretty good comedy, but with rather crude and somewhat dull humor. It's easy to watch, and the film itself is amusing. It's worth watching, but don't expect more than just a "simple parody." I watched it once, and that's enough. The second one is "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World." The film is based on the comic book of the same name and conveys a shortened, and in some places, truncated version of the plot. The film is rich in good humor, and there are quite charming characters (Wally X is one of them). After watching it, I even wanted to read the original comic. In general, I recommend watching it, because it's a pretty good film, even if the ending is quite predictable.

Excellent French film; it's difficult to define its genre – on one hand, it's a mystical action film, and on the other, a historical tragedy. The atmosphere of the 18th century is beautifully recreated, and the film received the "Cesar" award for best costume design. I saw a clip of it a long time ago, and now I finally watched the whole thing. I recommend it to those who haven't seen it yet.
Good English comedy action film, partly parodying Hollywood action movies. Amidst the excellent English humor, there are even glimpses of a plot. A decent choice if you need to spend two hours on something.

"We Are from the Future 2". A dose of excellent, hardcore trash. I liked the first part back in the day, and I heard that the second film is terrible; nevertheless, I watched it without regret. Objectively, it's a bad film: no plot, no acting, no logic, but I can't say that I didn't like it. Can trash be evaluated using a full-fledged system? It has a certain incoherent drive, vibrant visuals, and a lot of humor. It genuinely amused me, not so much with its absurdity and comicality, but with its energy. I recommend everyone to watch it, never forgetting that it's quality trash.

A Hollywood adventure action film, an adaptation of the comic book series. The film is based on what seems like a great idea – to bring together heroes from popular literary works from the late nineteenth century. Unfortunately, the idea is spoiled by the execution – a radical change of the images of beloved book characters (Tom Sawyer – an agent of the US secret service?!), a cliché plot about universal evil, and a huge amount of gratuitous action, which doesn't quite fit the atmosphere of Victorian England, which is more typical for such heroes. Of course, there are some aspects that I liked, but the film didn't evoke any emotions. My personal opinion – it's not worth watching.

I think it's not bad. It's a bit awkward, but there's something charming about it.

Cloverfield, "Monstro" in a strange localization.
A normal movie, you CAN LOOK AT THE SKY. It's short, but that's a plus – it doesn't drag on and doesn't get boring. A typical movie.
I liked it.

By the way, I glanced at the first few pages of the thread, and they were talking about the movie "Underworld". I watched the first two parts a couple of years ago, and I didn't like them. The acting was terrible, the plot was stupid, and overall it was just depressing. It was boring to watch. And there was too much pretentiousness in some places.

An ordinary movie, unlikely to stand out in any way, mainly distinguished by the presence of a plot.

200 Pounds Beauty. South Korean drama, comedy.
I watched it about a month ago. Based on the cover and the title, I expected to see some silly comedy, but I was pleasantly surprised when my expectations were not met.
You could say that the film is accompanied by only a small amount of humor, mainly focusing on the development of the plot. Almost at the end, I cried again :'(
I liked the song from the movie, performed by the actress who played the main role.

Ab-normal Beauty. Horror. Hong Kong.
Somewhere near the end, I couldn't take my eyes off the monitor, thinking, "when will it finally end?". No, there were no emotions like fear or boredom. I don't like scenes of torture of Asian women. When watching such scenes, I always put myself in the place of the victim.

The Blue Light. Japan. I just watched it.
I'll write in one line what I liked. Not bad, a decent plot.

Over the past three weeks, I watched three comedies: "Chuck & Larry," "Where's My Car, Dude?," and "Smokin' Aces." The first one is full of toilet humor and I turned it off after 25 minutes. I doubt I'll ever watch another movie with Adam Sandler. The second one is a light, absurd, and fantastical comedy. I really enjoyed it and immediately wanted to watch it again. The third one is also fantastical, but with some semblance of a plot and even a touch of philosophy. It's a pretty good movie.

"Blinded by Desires"

Good. Though, in my opinion, the ending was a bit weak.
