I never liked Raging Bull either. Yes it has good acting and music, but I too never liked any of the characters. I borderline didn't care what happened to them. I did like Goodfellas and Casino, despite bad characters being in those films. Yes, but I still cared and was invested in them.

The idea that you need a sympathetic character to enjoy a movie is so simplistic. That's reducing the concept of movies to an instrument of praise and admiration. So you wouldn't able to see a movie about Hitler, or Attila, or Rasputin, or Charles Manson so you can understand the anatomy of evil? Also, you can't feel empathy for a self-destructive character like Jake LaMotta? Absurd!

And how about this is on you, because even though it uses the concepts of subconcious and lucid dreaming, it's not actually about dreams but filmmaking and the history of surrealism in filmmaking and never even attempts to be like Lynch or Gondry to show what dreaming is like? And don't understand how this is still the main argument of so many against inception. It's not supposed to look like a dream. Get over it!

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT IS NOT THE HOLY GRAIL OF WRITING. Holy shit, it feels like it's one aspect of good writing people can easily discern, so when something doesn't have it, or they can't see it, they think it's bad. Same for the "nothing happens" and the "he doesn't have redeeming qualities" arguments, it's like some people have a blueprint on how good stories are, many things have to happen, and the bad guy has to be gray with good and bad things. It's not like that, the whole point of those movies is what they think it's inadvertently doing, while it's completely on pourpose.

Joker has problems but IMO the hate is too brutal at times. Visually it looks good, it has a strong performance from Phoenix, it tries to explore a lot of social problems in America seriously (even if it fails), and it goes for a darker and poetic tone (something I'm a sucker for). It's not a great film and people should point out the flaws, but there's a lot of good in it that people don't talk about. Sometimes it looks like people want Joker to be bad, like it's the bane of their existence
@derek96720
@derek96720 Жыл бұрын
Joker got a lot of bad press around the time it came out because a) it focused on social issues through the viewpoint of a white male, and b) because it sought to paint mass murderers through a partially-sympathetic lens. Neither of those are in vogue right now when it comes to social justice. Of course you get a film about a white, female murderer like Harley Quinn and all the sudden it's nothing but empowerment and "yass/slay queen!"

I have to disagree with you on Fury Road. Although it is a really good action film it is not the best. One of the biggest problems I have with the movie is its main character is relegated to supporting character in his own story. Plus his character comes out be a better character than Furiosa’s does at the end. Taking none of the glory giving it to all to her. Furiosa is an ok character but I do not believe she holds a candle to others like John McClain or Rambo from 1&4 or Ripley. Hopefully this next film makes up for that.

Hate is a strong word, and I would definitely not use that, but Hotel Rwanda (2004) is a movie that comes to mind. Yes, I'm sure there were sincere good intentions connected to the making of the movie and the narrative of shining a light on a horrible event that a part of the West was perhaps trying to turn a blind eye to is somewhat convincing, but the completed movie seems slightly too "politically doctored" in the way it presents situations. Yes, it is mentioned that a basis for the conflict had been how colonial Belgians had segregated the locals into Hutus and Tutsis, but the way the "evil" of the bad people is not explored any further than making it seem as if they were misguided and the local people of the "enterpreneurial classes" are depicted as pure and innocent gives a strong signal to my critical sensors that someone behind releasing this movie the way it is, was concerned with hiding some real reasons behind the conflict, was taking steps to present something more messy and complex and perhaps incriminating as a simple case of stupidity or evil. It is a pretty highly regarded movie "shining a light on a true horrible event", but it seems so horribly staged that my instinctive reaction is a disbelief in the clearly over-simplified "Hollywood" version of the events. The reaction might be just because of bad and cliche film making decisions and not dishonesty, but either way it doesn't allow me to hold it in as high a regard as it is often held.

Your much more nuanced reactions to their posts are exactly why I subbed your channel. You try to do film criticism that is *higher level* than the run of the mill kind: about visual styles, themes, storytelling, filmmaking techniques, etc. We watch untold amount of visual media from the day we were born, and yet many of us suffer from "cine-illiteracy" and are unable to evaluate content other than "don't like this," "don't enjoy that," "can't like a movie with a character I don't like," etc. There is great book called "Understanding Movies" by Louis Giannetti that teaches a lay person how to evaluate movies in a "literate" way, with the right approach and mindset.

Black Panther (2018) is easily the most overrated film I have ever seen. The fact that people praise this as not only the best comic book movie but one of the best films ever is a complete joke to me. I understand people love the film for it's representation of the black community but I think the themes explored in the film are done exponentially better in Ryan Coogler's previous films, Creed (2015) and Fruitvale Station (2013). I think the film is a complete mess. The effects are a joke given the film's budget. I hate the convoluted and generic plot, the service level BASIC characters and performances. The bland lifeless cinematography. There's really nothing special about the film whatsoever. I don't hate it by any means but people put it on this high pedestal and it completely baffles me.

Mine: Good Will Hunting. it's worse than Titanic ( although i actually like Titanic ), the main character is obnoxious and unlikable and so is everyone else, the filmmaking is what i call the perfect example of pretentious. La La Land. the only part i enjoyed is the opening number and some of the music, plus Emma Stone is adorable, but nothing else worked for me, the visuals try way to hard to look stylish, there are a lot of poor implications in the story and the less said about Gosling. Rogue One. it feels so much like a Michael Bay/Roland Emerich film, the main characters are so dull! the only characters who stand out are K2, Chirriut and Krennick, the action is messy and barley visible, in a way the film is like how you described Mad Max Fury Road but executed terribly! it's just fan service with barley any nuance or substance. Ace Ventura. one of the worst comedies ever, the plot is completely inept and insane in the worst ways, the main character is one of the most unbearable jackasses ever put on screen , nothing about this schlock is funny, i might add some later...

My pick would be The Shining. I like Kubrick and I like horror films and I don't exactly hate The Shining, but it feels like it is trying too hard to create a spooky/scary film. The soundtrack is great music, but it is horribly overused and overly rich for its purposes. It's one of those horror films where scary stuff just happens and it can't express its horror through its own logic. Instead it pokes and prods a reaction out of you through camera work, set design and score making it a visceral rather than an intellectual horror. But for me the effect is like somebody hiding behind a bush and saying "boo". The scares are shallow, irritating even.

Top 10 Movies I Hate That Everyone Loves: 1. Finding Nemo (2003): Nemo is a whiny spoiled brat, Marlin is an idiot , and Dory is annoying and obnoxious. The seagulls, the tank gang (excluding Gill) and Crush are also obnoxious. Coral's death lacks emotional impact due to underdevelopment. The humor is cringey, and the vegetarian sharks are not funny. The movie feels emotionally manipulative and lacks a clear main character (Is it Nemo or Malin). The animation is dated, and the movie is no where near as "dark" or "matrure" as claimed. Overall, it's overrated and fails to resonate with me emotionally. 2. Titanic (1997): Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet are great actors but give dreadful performances with no chemistry due to the atrocious script. The romance is as bad as in the Twilight franchise. The dialogue is cringeworthy. The movie is boring, preachy, prententious, and predictable. The emotional manipulation is evident, especially with the ending, where Jack's death feels contrived. The film is unnecessarily long and doesn't feel like a James Cameron movie. The only positive aspect is Billy Zane as the main antagonist. 3. There Will Be Blood (2006): Daniel Day-Lewis and Paul Dano are wonderful actors but their peforamances are too over the top, making their performances cringe-worthy and hard to take seriously. The movie is too long, boring, pretentious, and filled with mindless exposition. Daniel Day Lewis's character kills Paul Dano with a plastic bowling pin which feels absurd and unrealistic. I mean why not use a crow bar or a metal bowling pin? That would have been more believable. 4. Cars (2006): Lightning McQueen is a douchebag, and Mater is annoying. The idea is dumb, the soundtrack and humor are cringeworthy. The overuse of merchandise is frustrating. 5. Avengers: Infinity War (2018) & Avengers: Endgame (2019): The humor is cringeworthy, and Mark Ruffalo as Hulk is terrible. The movies are tonally inconsistent and excessively long. These movies should be lumped with Batman & Robin (1997) and Green Lantern (2011). X-Men Apocalypse (2016), while not perfect but is a damn great movie and is far superior Avengers: Infinity War (2018) & Avengers: Endgame (2019).Thanos is an overrated shitty villain, and making him sympathetic makes him a pussy and hard to take seriously. I never saw Thanos as a threat. I didn't like the way Apocalypse looked in X-Men Apocalypse but I thought Apocalypse was a WAY better villain Thanos. Apoalypse was more menacing and threatening than Thanos wish he could be. Thanos is just a pussy and a joke. 6. Cabin In The Woods (2012): The movie can't decide between being serious or comedic, making it tonally inconsistent. The characters are poorly written and unlikable. The acting is terrible, and the gore effects look cheap. It feels like a Sci-Fi channel knock-off of Evil Dead. 7. Jurassic World (2014): Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt give poor performances. The kids are annoying, and the villains are lame. The CGI is awful, and there's nothing redeeming about the movie. It's the worst in the franchise. Jurassic Park III (2001) sucks but at least there were SOME redeeming qualities. 8. Rise of The Planet of The Apes (2011): The movie is boring, preachy, and emotionally manipulative. Caesar is unlikable, and the plot is filled with unrealistic moments.The CGI looks bad, even for 2011. For a better film with a similar theme, watch Free Willy (1993) or Mighty Joe Young (1997). 9. Spider-Man 2 (2004): As a big Spider-Man fan who read the comics, watched the 1990s Spider-Man cartoon, and loved Spider-Man 1 (2002), this movie was disappointing. It’s boring, pretentious, and lacked action. Tobey Maguire I liked him as Peter Parker and Spider-Man in Spider-Man 1 (2002). In Spider-Man 2 (2004)? He's great Spider-Man but not as Peter Paker. I didn't mind Kirsten Dunst in Spider-Man 1 (2002) but I couldn't stand her in Spider-Man 2 (2004) and is even worse in Spider-Man 3 (2007). James Franco was a great Harry Osborn in Spider-Man 1 (2002), in Spider-Man 2 (2004) he's just a whiny emo brat reminsicent of Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy. I like Alfred Molina's performance as Doctor Octopus but I hated the way the character was written. Doctor Octopus is portrayed as a sympathetic pussy rather than a threat. 10. Toy Story 2 (1999) & Toy Story 3 (2010): I love Toy Story 1 (1996) and I think it hold up incredibly well. Both sequels recycle the plot of the first movie, with the toys getting lost and needing to return to Andy. Toy Story 3 is tonally inconsistent and emotionally manipulative. The franchise should have ended with the first movie.

I agree with many of the points you made about The Dark Knight especially that Nolan should've saved Two Face for later....The thing is, Nolan wasn't making a trilogy at the time he was just making a movie. That's why he tried to squeeze everything he could into it, that's why the third act feels tacked on. But that's also why I think it's special -- he just made a fucking movie, not an episode in a never ending franchise, just a movie. I think he witnessed Ledger firsthand before a script was even written and said "I gotta give this my all". He threw everything at it, some of it stuck and some didn't, but the part that stuck is cinema in its purest form.

I totally see where you're coming from when it comes to TDKR but I still have a soft spot for that film. Yes, it's bloated, the script is one of the most hole-ridden in the history of cinema, it's easily the weakest of the trilogy, but it has an epicness about it that not many films in the last decade have and I feel that there was enough character development and acting carried out from the previous two films to make it a compelling watch. I also enjoy the soundtrack (even though I'm no Zimmer fan by any stretch of the imagination) and I found Tom Hardy's take on Bane suitably frightening and amusing in equal measures. But yes, at the end of the day, I'm fully aware that this film might qualify as a guilty pleasure for me :)

Mad Max: Fury Road is TOO simple, plotwise. Why even care about the characters when they haven't even been fleshed out enough to warrant investment? Action works best when you actually care about the characters a bit, which I saw no reason to do (needs more than "Aaw, she's pregnant."). And try recounting what little story there is verbally from memory and it will become clear it's a bad joke. Watch The Raid 2 instead, for max action, minimal (but not too little) plot. The Dark Knight: Too long for its content. Bale's cringy growl turns Batman into a parody. Nolan once again demonstrates that he doesn't put caring about characters ahead of the technicalities of filmmaking, which is a shame. Boondock Saints: By almost every metric but plot a trash movie.

You never know what you're gonna get.” . I lost count of how many times I argued that this didn't make sense and you actually know exactly what is in a box of chocolate. I have been reflecting over the years why I hate this film so much when it is internationally loved? I don't know?, but it is probably has to do with its politcal messages. To me the film seemed like right wing American propaganda. Something I am strongly opposed to to put it mildly lol.

If your closing bit (to borrow the stand-up term) is an existing joke you've got problems. If you think that's funny you've got even more problems. I'm sure I laughed at various moments but not on the whole. Forgettable. Same with Farrelly brothers movies. Hugely popular, I was unimpressed after one or two of them, never bothered.

Star Trek 2009 (generic and not particularly good action movie masquerading as Star Trek. Ironically I enjoyed the sequels more once as I accepted them for brainless cash ins). Citizen Kane - just don't love it. You can't connect with the title character. Raging Bull - agreed. I hated it. No interest in an asshole character study. Clockwork Orange - I consider myself a Kubrick fan, but still don't particularly care for CO. Doesn't leave you satisfied at the end. Up - it seemed at one point Pixar could do no wrong and this was released at the end of that period. For it it was terribly silly, boring, and not memorable.

If you hated Dark Knight rising score, which I thought was okay, then WTF about the score to Dune?!? It's like SCREAMING out of the blue and Bag Pipes OMG! I liked the movie but had to mute some places coz of the idiotic score..

Not a big fan of a lot of the Coen Brothers movies. I also love The Dark Knight, but don't think it's as good as the praise it recieves (I'm willing to change my opinion on a third viewing) While I think the Dark Knight Rises is good overall! I think The Princess Bride is really overrated. And the 2000s remake of House of Wax is really underrated. The IT movies were overrated too.

@Luke Farris Not a fan of The Lady Killers, Hudsucker Proxy, Intolerable Cruelty, Burn After Reading, Hail, Caesar etc. I like stuff like O Brother where are Thou, Raising Arizona, True Grit, Barton Fink, A serious Man etc. But don't think they're amazing or anything. Fargo is very good, I enjoyed True Grit, Miller's Crossing and No Country are great. I just think a lot of their films are just okay. Even stuff like Blood Simple I don't particularly care for. But perhaps my most controversial opinion is....I don't really like The Big Lebowski. I've watched it a few times and it never clicks. I just find it average. But that's just my opinion...

Love your take on Titanic. It has such a sentimental love story, so obvious. The sinking ship was quite well done, but like you say, it's cheap exploitation of a terrible tragedy. I dislike Gladiator because it's so unrealistic. The fight scenes are like from a superhero comic strip. Maximus is not like a real human being, while the emperor is irredeemabley evil. Hollywoodisation of the Roman Empire.

Anything with Gene Kelly in it repels me. He just seems like such a jerk IRL, and he scarcely conceals that in every part he ever had. "An American in Paris" is as dull as "Singing in the Rain." I think of Debbie Reynolds bleeding half to death from her feet up, as Kelly goads her into doing the next take by pelting her with nonstop insults. Egotistical, self-satisfied A-Hole. Could he dance? Yes. Could he act? Hah. Could he direct? Nope. Time has diminished his image to the shadow of a cobweb clinging to the periphery of film history.

Have to disagree if having no Heath Ledger in Dark Knight it would be average. Gary Oldman brings a lot into the movie too.

Hello guys, I watch films from all eras and have a few films I simply can't stand that end up on best films lists. Casablanca 1941 (for me this is badly directed), Gone With the Wind (I saw this in a movie theater and laughed throughout, total tripe) 1939, Transformers(all), HarryPotter franchise (never liked them, stopped watching halfway through #3), Rocky franchise (I've seen them all and was annoyed from #1 on), The Hobbit (all incarnations, I'm not a Tolkein fan, I tried to read the books but stopped halfway through the Hobbit. I did enjoy Jackson's Lord of the Rings Trilogy in spite of everything in my head against it) This was fun Jim Oaxaca Mexico

But the studios wanted sequels so they say Hey We're let you make what you want but give us sequels point blank thats what he did with Dark Knight and Dark Knight Rises which were messy long stretched films.But Rises was alot worser and a insult to the Caped Crusader legacy.

I think Boondock Saints is utter crap. It glorifies needless violence, and attempts to give the 'protagonist' a sort of cheeky charm, while they do unspeakable things. It is a disgusting movie that made me feel dirty for watching, so I totally get your needing to take a shower feeling.
