same it's not so much that it's trash it just it just aged horribly. Mostly due to being the blueprint for epic war movies
loved this shyt as a kid
isn't that really down to the anger you feel at the final act when Ethan hawke's punk ass doesn't dieI'd never call it trash but Training Day gets worse for me every viewing
Longshanks throwing his son's gay lover out the window is still classic thosame it's not so much that it's trash it just it just aged horribly. Mostly due to being the blueprint for epic war movies
Face Off
I used ti be indifferent about that movie. .......then I heard jim Norton and Patrice O'Neal use straight up logic and shyt on that movie
lmao that movie is so terrible
for me its that movie crash
when I first saw it my young adolescent mind thought it was 'so deep' but watching it years later I realized how garbage and lacking in subtlety it is
on a related note remember how interweaving storylines was a really popular thing to do around that time babel was the most egregious example. how each character's story was supposed to relate to one another was so paper thin it was almost non-existent. the japanese girls story was completely pointless to the story (but ironically was the most interesting outta the bunch)
Word, I cut alot of films a break for ridiculousness, this was one of them and everybody i know swears up and down this is the coolest flick ever, but then I rewatched this , the plot, the acting not even John Woo's gun fights could get me through this, you could see the wires on the stuntmen, the platforms actors were supposed to be standing on before someone steps in and takes a stunt for them, only thing i liked about it was the opening scene on the carousel and the imagery in the church shootout, how the hell did we let nicolas cage get away with so much sh1t. Some say its a parody of US action movies, but its hard to tell whats a parody and whats just plain bad.
Independence day, as I got older I was like "the fukk is this shyt?!"
