My Favorite Movies

The film has stunning cinematography in the most vivid HD colours I've ever seen! I've always loved sharks, so I cried almost throughout the entire film. A must-see documentary/film. But it is not enough to just watch this film. Stop consuming shark fins to stop both legal and illegal shark finnings. Saving sharks is vital for the sake of the survival of the human race. You need to watch this documentary/film to understand better - although it is really simple to understand. Sharks are the main predator of a foodchain that controls the foodweb... sharks eat other fish that eat plankton that is the main provider of oxygen to our planet. The film will definitely change your perspective about sharks and view them as our NEED for survival. This film jumps to the top as my favourite.

The Mafias have been highly romanticized in this movie. But The Godfather is one of the most beautiful films ever made!

This film made me cry - especially during the climax of the film when Toto was viewing the montage Alfredo made for him. I love the film to the core. I first saw the theatrical version at the cinema back in 89 or 90 (I can't remember exactly when) and truly loved it - but having seen the new extended version on DVD - this new version focuses on Toto's relationship with his long lost love ... questions are answered in the new version. Personally however, I prefer the theatrical one because some questions are just best left unanswered.

I love this film. It's funny, heart-breaking and simply chic. You cannot help but feel for the main character, Malena throughout the film.

Simply put, a beautiful film. Majid Majidi's best.

Excellent.

A beautiful film - meaningful for its socio-entrepreneur aspects that these homeless kids were saved from the streets (in real life) - thanks to Mira Nair and friends. On DVD, I recommend the director's commentary for 2nd viewing. Mira Nair is a brilliant director.

Amazing film by Vittorio de Sica! One of the finest performances on the silver screen on the part of the well-deserved Oscar winner (Best Actress for this film), Sophia Loren. I saw the Italian film without the subtitles, and could still follow the incredibly well-written screenplay. The rape-in-church scene was heart-breaking and took the turn for the mother-daughter relationship.

A very good adaptation of the autobiography by Frances Farmer. The movie was almost as amazing as the book! Well-acted by Jessica Lange.

Beautiful screenplay.

sad ending

Joaquin Phoenix rocks as Emperor of Rome!

One of my fave movies.

Good one!

My favourite performance by Nicole Kidman. She plays Virginia Woolf instinctively.

Loved Angeline Jolie in this one!

Cheesy - but good cheese! :D

Underrated epic. An excellent film.

My most watched movie - yet, despite that I only saw this movie as teenager. I haven't seen it in ages.

Overall, a masterpiece,

A cool junkie-movie! Great acting and very funny!

Loved the chill. One of just two of Schwarzenegger's movies I like, because this one has Linda Hamilton.

Love it for the sake of nostaligia. Love Travolta and Stockhard Channing in this one. Olivia Newton John was lame - sorry.

Great adaptation of the book.

A must-see.

The best film version of Romeo and Juliet that I've seen.

Love it all round! Dori (Ellen) is my favourite character.

One of Spielberg's best.

Simply, very well made movie. WOW! We can expect a sequel I guess, because Optimus Prime did not die in this one.

touching drama that revolves around the homeless and about a special relationship between 2 people who helped each other in hope to get out of the predicament they were in. the friendship bonded into a father-son relationship. the movie has a deeply sad ending. so get the tissues ready.

Highy explosive, with scenes that would make you grasp for air. Action packed political thriller that is based on current events but the story is fictionous. One of the best movies I've seen in 2008, yet. Eventually, Saudian Colonel Faris emerges the hero, I feel.

A different kind of comedy about self-discovery.

This movie delivers several strong messages and raises issues that we could reflect upon. Some scenes - particularly the last - are very symbolic. A movie worth renting or buying. Great casting and certainly one of the best movies of its genre.

The film is of intense drama with poetic cinematography, artistic camera angles, beautifully elaborated costumes, engaging script, well-suited musical backgrounds, and mesmerizing performance on the part of Cate Blanchett. The film reflects the Queen's personal life that intertwines with her dutiful weight she carries as a queen. Much focus is put on the complexity of her emotional side - we see her weeping from the death of Mary, Queen of Scots, to her personified rage of being challenged to go to war. Her strength within her is clearly magnified on the screen, all thanks to a brilliant performance by Blanchett. We feel her loneliness which she has chosen to live. The movie tell us a lot about Elizabeth as a loving Queen who did all in her power to serve her England (and Ireland). Historically, the Golden Age is more than just Elizabeth I, but we do not see that in the film. We do see however, the significance of Elizabeth I -shaping the era she lived in, marking it in the brilliance with her intense personality, her brilliant mind and loving heart. This film is one of the most underated films I've seen and deserves more credit that what it has received.

In a nutshell - BRILLIANT!
