"Fight Club" is definitely one of my favorite movies, and I've also read the book – both the film and the book are great. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to exploring the rest of Chuck Palahniuk's work. I think his style is very similar to Kurt Vonnegut (he probably drew inspiration from him): both have a kind of hyperrealism that harmoniously coexists with complete absurdity – very few world-renowned authors have managed to achieve this. Has anyone come across any good film adaptations of Vonnegut's works, not just mediocre ones? Please share links if you have any. As strange as it may seem, I watched "Saw" (the first film, I mean) for the first time the other day. Before that, I had only seen the sixth installment. Wow, I had no idea such amazing films existed. I thought "Saw" was just another cheesy horror movie with a bunch of sequels, but it turns out it's a film that makes you think. It would definitely be in my personal "top" list if I kept one...

As funny as it sounds, I watched "Saw" (the 1st movie, I mean) for the first time the day before yesterday. Before that, I had only seen the 6th part. Wow, I lived and didn't know that such amazing movies exist: I thought "Saw" was just some dumb horror movie with a bunch of sequels, but no - it's a film that makes you think. It would definitely be in my personal "top" list if I made one...
I watched "Saw" for the first time only last fall; before that, I also thought it was just a dumb gore-fest, but no, the first movie is really cool. The sequels are more like milking money from the audience, although overall they are still watchable.

What a coincidence, I watched the first Saw movie a week ago too. There were no intriguing moments, and even the sudden twist didn't surprise me. I didn't expect much from the movie, but overall, it's a decent film and doesn't feel tiresome.

I just watched the animated movie "How to Train Your Dragon." It turns out, unexpectedly, that I am quite sentimental. Maybe it's because the dragon Toothless looks a lot like my dog (even in appearance).

Just for laughs, I watched Resident Evil 4: Afterlife. The movie is incredibly boring, but I wanted to find out why it made so much money. The questions from the third part, like "What do people eat to live, run, and so on?" and "What do zombies eat to wander the desert?" were replaced with more specific ones: "Endless ammo in 2010-2011 - HOW?!" "Was the security system of Raccoon City made up of 3.5 noobs?" and other questions like "Where did the dilapidated plane get fuel for days of flight?". But that's just me complaining. The shootouts and other "Let's kill them!!!" scenes are absolutely uninteresting and don't excite me. A bunch of new characters were introduced simply to make SURE THAT THE GOOD GUYS ALSO SUFFER LOSSES!!! I won't talk about the other plot holes, inconsistencies, and absurdities. I also found it amusing that the authors finally started playing with the RE universe itself, with the fifth part, from which they took the best moments for the film. The acting is terrible, to say the least. And yes, instead of riding around in a military vehicle and mowing down zombies (which would have been really cool), we get a depressing chase from zombies through the building and crawling through a tunnel-intestine...
I don't recommend watching it, especially if you've seen the previous parts.

Watched "300 Spartans," it doesn't claim to be entirely historically accurate, but overall, I liked it. The battle scenes are quite intense, and the slow-motion is unusual.

Haven of Evil 4: this Afterlife of yours.
I don't recommend watching it, especially for those who have played the games in the series.

I like this topic; I'm getting upvotes here :D
I watched the trashy and hilarious "Machete." Rodriguez went all out. It's one of those movies where you can just ignore the inconsistencies and enjoy it. The fights and shootouts are quite bloody, but they have their own unique appeal and even humor. The harsh satire is great: it mocks everyone from politicians to that actress of yours, Lindsay Lohan, and her outrageous behavior. Overall, after watching it once, there's no negative feeling, and I don't regret the time spent.

I also noticed a series on TV called "Mental." It's about treating various mental illnesses. There's only one season with 12 episodes. I watched 4 and was very pleased. Maybe the series doesn't have the same level of hype as HOUSE, but it's much better in itself:
1. The main character is the complete opposite of House. He enjoys life, he's friendly, he's kind to patients, and he doesn't show off in the end;
2. The diagnosis is made professionally and immediately, not 10 minutes before the end of the film, when House is EATING A SANDWICH/STARING AT PANTIES/ENGAGING IN OTHER SODOMY.
3. The entire episode shows the specific treatment of patients, each of whom requires a different approach.
4. The series doesn't devolve into a cheesy discussion about "Did he sleep with her, or didn't he, or didn't he sleep with him either...", but instead focuses specifically on health problems.
It's a good series, all in all.

If you don't have any negative feelings after watching this garbage, then you need to get treatment. If you saw humor in it, then the height of humor for you is jokes like, "Dad, is it true that the Internet makes people dumber? Haha, son, lol."
P.S. I would give you a "-", but I never do that.

Well, go ahead and watch it. You'll see that it's a prime example of something awful. I think it could be brought to Paris as a standard measure.

Yeah. Despite all the criticism from snobs and "historians," it's an outstanding film. Someone rightly pointed out that it marked the beginning of an entirely new genre – cinematic painting. Every frame could be framed and hung on a wall. Definitely the best historical action movie I've ever seen. (By the way, I watched it in the original the first two times, and only then with subtitles – an excellent tool for expanding the vocabulary of English for beginners!:smile01:). And those who find it too pompous, etc., can watch something boring:smile17:!
