The last movie i rewatched is "Interstellar". One of my favorite movies of all time and no matter how many times i repeat it it gets amazing. Alot of it theories are really good to read and gives a new point to rewatch it again. I'm sure at this point everyone has actually watched it. The favorite part is mine when they reach the other planet and get stuck there and they waste years on earth.

Last night I watched a film called "Sound of Metal", the films follow the story of a drummer who loses his hearing in hopes that a medical procedure will restore his hearing and his journey to integrate with the deaf community. I can't such much because some event are spoiler and it could ruin the "final" message that the film wants to express.

Ruben is a drummer and one half of the metal duo Blackgammon, along with the singer and his girlfriend, Lou. They live in an RV while driving across the United States to perform gigs. When Ruben begins to lose his hearing, he goes to a pharmacy seeking a diagnosis. The pharmacist refers him to a doctor, who performs a hearing test and finds that Ruben can only make out 20–30 percent of words he hears and his hearing will deteriorate rapidly; moreover, although cochlear implants may benefit him, their high cost is not covered by insurance. The doctor suggests that Ruben eliminate all exposure to loud noises and later undergo further testing, but Ruben continues to perform.

When Lou learns of Ruben's condition she wants to stop performing for his safety, but he wants to continue. She is also concerned about his sobriety, as he is a recovering drug addict. They call his sponsor, Hector, who finds a rural shelter for deaf recovering addicts that accepts Ruben, run by a man named Joe, a recovering alcoholic who lost his hearing in Vietnam. Ruben leaves with Lou because they will not let her live there with him and he wants only the implants. Lou, anxious for his well-being, leaves and persuades Ruben to return to the shelter.

Ruben begins to meet the other members of the shelter as he attends meetings and settles into his new life. He is introduced to Diane, a teacher, and the children in her class, and begins to learn American Sign Language. Joe tasks Ruben with writing endlessly and sitting peacefully in an effort to make him comfortable with the silence, and tells him that he himself will do the same, simultaneously. Ruben joins Diane's class and starts to connect with the children and the rest of the community. He gives the children and Diane basic drumming lessons.

So far, Ruben's stay has been sponsored by a church. Joe offers him a more permanent way of staying on, as an employee of the community, and tells him to think about it. Ruben periodically uses the computer to see what Lou is up to, discovering her to be experimenting with her own music in Paris. He gets his friend Jenn to sell his drums and other music equipment, then sells his RV, using the money for cochlear implant surgery. Ruben asks Joe to loan him money to buy back his RV while he awaits activation of the implant. Joe refuses, commenting that Ruben looks and sounds like an addict. Brokenhearted, Joe then asks Ruben to leave the community, as it is founded on the belief that deafness is not a handicap.

Once they have been activated, the implants allow Ruben to hear, but the sound from them is heavily distorted and not what he was hoping for, and this disrupts his attempts to regain his old way of life. Ruben flies to meet Lou at her wealthy father Richard's house in Paris[4] where she has settled into a new lifestyle. Richard welcomes him and allows him to stay there. Richard confides in Ruben that while he did not originally like him, he recognizes that Ruben has made Lou happy. At a gathering, Lou and her father perform a duet, and Ruben finds his implants don't allow him to hear music as he used to. Ruben and Lou discuss the possibility of playing music and touring again. Ruben notices this makes Lou anxious and tells her all is well and that she saved his life. She tells him that he saved hers too. The next morning, Ruben takes his things and leaves while Lou is still sleeping. Bothered yet again by the distortion, he sits on a bench and removes his implants' processors, becoming comfortable with the silence.

The Fifth Element (1997). I had been searching for this movie for a while. For a long time, I couldn't find a good copy. IT has an interesting crew Milica Dvovich, Bruce Willis, Chris Tucker, etc. It's an action-comedy and a pretty good one too. It was a successful movie too with a 90 million budget it made 264 millions.

A french action movie about a special police forces group attempting to find and destroy a group of robbers that hit mobile secure money transports with high powered weapons, skills and a lot of violence if necessary.

A lot about internal affairs inside the special forces / between police. Friends and their relations. That all aside from the action regarding the robber group.

It was a good movie overall.

I believe I watched this movie at some point in the past but I wasn't sure so I decided to watch it again.

The outcome? I'm still not sure if I have watched it in the past. Well, that was useful.

By the way this is another Liam Neeson movie. An action crime thriller. It was very interesting .

Another action movie though. Interesting story development but I guess predictable. Not bad though.

No Escape / 2015 / USA / 6.8 out of 10 Rating on IMDb

In their new overseas house, an American family soon finds themselves caught in the middle of a coup, and they frantically look for a safe escape from an environment where foreigners are being immediately executed. A couple (Owen Wilson and Lake Bell) and their two daughters relocate to Asia, only to find themselves caught in the middle of a dangerous coup. Realizing that foreigners are being murdered on the spot, they make a desperate decision to escape the violence on the streets and seek refuge at the American Embassy, all while trying to avoid detection by the merciless rebels.

A really great movie I can recommend with Pierce Brosnan and Owen Wilson in the cast, a very intense story and a lot of very interesting moments.

Honestly the things shown in the movie aren't far of the reality in some countries at all. Remember events from the past where countless attacks on US embassies in different 3rd world countries have been made.

Another very similar and also absolutely great movie is called Hotel Mumbai (based on a real events in the year 2008 in mumbai). Or another one 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (also based on real events that happened in Lybia).

A classic movie that probably all of you have already seen. If you haven't you should watch it.

Bruce Willis acting like the super cool ex cop probably one of the best things about this movie. Story is interesting, too.

If Dewey and his team are able eventually to identify the pair as the murderers and capture them, they, if they understand the two, may get their much needed confessions in dividing and conquering.

Probably the oldest movie I have seen so far. Pretty good one indeed.

What a crazy movie but it suits the times very well and is made very good. I never actually seen it fully before. Always picked up some scenes from friends, websites or TV (randomly).

Blood Simple / 1984 / USA / 7.6 out of 10 Rating on IMDb

The owner of a seedy small-town Texas bar discovers that one of his employees is having an affair with his wife. A chaotic chain of misunderstandings, lies and mischief ensues after he devises a plot to have them murdered. Texas bar owner Julian Marty, who is generally regarded as not a nice person, hires shady private detective Loren Visser, who is able to obtain what Marty requests evidence - in this instance, photographic - that his wife, Abby, and one of his bartenders, Ray, are having an affair. As Ray and Abby realize that Marty has found out about them, it allows them to plan for their future away from Marty, while being up front with Marty about the situation. Marty, in turn, decides to hire Visser once again, this time to kill Abby and Ray, and dispose of their bodies so that they won't be found. The out-in-the-open affair and the contract hit lead to some actions based on self-interest and a standoff of sorts between the four players, which is compounded in complexity by some wrong assumptions of what has happened, with an innocent bystander, another of the Marty's bartenders, Meurice, potentially, and unwittingly, adding to the scenario.

A noir-styled movie about love, affairs, a tale of bad coincidences and worse planning.

Really interesting movie and definitely worth a watch!

Platoon / 1986 / USA / 8.1 out of 10 Rating on IMDb

Chris Taylor, a neophyte recruit in Vietnam, finds himself caught in a battle of wills between two sergeants, one good and the other evil. A shrewd examination of the brutality of war and the duality of man in conflict. Chris Taylor is a young, naive American who gives up college and volunteers for combat in Vietnam. Upon arrival, he quickly discovers that his presence is quite nonessential, and is considered insignificant to the other soldiers, as he has not fought for as long as the rest of them and felt the effects of combat. Chris has two non-commissioned officers, the ill-tempered and indestructible Staff Sergeant Robert Barnes and the more pleasant and cooperative Sergeant Elias Grodin. A line is drawn between the two NCOs and a number of men in the platoon when an illegal killing occurs during a village raid. As the war continues, Chris himself draws towards psychological meltdown. And as he struggles for survival, he soon realizes he is fighting two battles, the conflict with the enemy and the conflict between the men within his platoon.

Ah, yes. The madness of the Vietnam war with the US.

Honestly the movie is good but I've seen to many Vietnam and war movies. It slowly gets pretty boring to watch movies about the Vietnam war, World War II or other wars from the past.

Nontheless a very great movie and worth a watch.

A really great movie with Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman.

Autism is no joke and should be taken seriously. The movie is attempting to make aware of this for the time it was made in. It wasn't even known widely that autism was a existing thing and a big issue for affected peopel.

Great character development in terms of the role that Tom Cruise played and as well as Dustin Hoffman's role.

Elsewhere, a local photographer named Francis Dollarhyde, the killer for whom Will is looking, struggles to stay undetected while seeing a hope of redemption when be begins a relationship with a blind woman (Joan Allen) who is not aware of his double life.

It is a great crime thriller movie however given that I don't know a single of the actors and the movie is older than me I actually like the remake from 2002 more due to known cast / actors and everything. Both movie have the same scores and the remake is as great as the original.

[Littlemaster]

I have watched a Tamil Movie named Kathi recently, the movie starred by Vijay, one of the best actor in Tamil industry. It tells the story of a village of farmers and their agony. The protagonist trying to make the people aware of the value of farmers by his creative ideas, the movie is strong in its message. A good movie for watching.
My rating : 9/10

A second movie of the movie above. It wasn't as great as the first was. Not going to watch the newest one even. It's generally not my kind of movie genre (if you look at my previously watched movies).

A former cop turned street-hustler accidentally uncovers a conspiracy in Los Angeles in 1999. In 1999, Los Angeles is a racial war zone with the army and LSPD, and SWAT officers fighting Afro-American people. The former cop Lenny Nero is a dealer of illegal recording in CDs that gives the memories and sensations of the recorder to the user. He buys the recordings from the supplier Tick; he misses his former mistress Faith, who was a hooker and now is a singer; his best friend is the private eye Max Peltier and the limousine driver Lornette 'Mace' Mason, who has an unrequited love for him. Two days before the turn of the century, the black rapper Jeriko One is murdered. The hooker Iris seeks Lenny out but there is an incident and they do not talk to each other. However, she drops a recording into Lenny's car while he unsuccessfully tries to meet Faith at a nightclub. However her boyfriend Philo Gant does not let them talk. When Lenny learns that Iris was sadistically raped and killed, he gets involved in a sick scheme and discovers dirty hidden secrets.

That was a very interesting movie. I think the developers of Cyberpunk 2077 might have used this movie as some kind of inspiration for the brain dance thing in the game. The setting of the movie is quite a strange one indeed. However, overall a very good movie.

Just when the book becomes a big success. He gets arrested for the true-life murders of the five lawyers in his book. He then finds himself, trying to prove that he is innocent of the murders.

The story itself is a very interesting one actually. The most interesting part of the movie starts in the middle and goes to the end though. Everything before that is kinda lame which made me stop watching the movie yesterday and only continue it today to finish it.

The Limey / 1999 / USA / 7 out of 10 Rating on IMDb

An extremely volatile and dangerous Englishman goes to Los Angeles to find the man he considers responsible for his daughter's death. An ex-con, fresh out of prison, goes to L.A. to try to learn who murdered his daughter. However, he quickly finds that he is completely out of place with no understanding of the culture he finds. His investigations are helped by another ex-con. Together they learn that his daughter had been having an affair with a record producer, who is presently having an affair with another young woman. An aging actress, who also knew his daughter, forces him to look at his own failures as a father. The movie does focus on the drama of the situation and the inter-relationships of the characters and seldom slips into an action piece.

Seemed interesting when I saw the description and everything but I didn't really enjoy watching it much. Was boring most of the time. And the action was mostly a few fights and mainly some shootouts.
