#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Why doesn't Steef like it?Because of the reason states by Lee. It's solid, traditional Christmas entertainment. A delightful romp. The whole family in front if the tele, watching it for the 6th time.It's a TV classic, not a cinema classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbellamy 6,315 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I understand Anderson is talented, but once I'd like him to try something different, even if its just a different font on his posters.I like Anderson's voice, his movies are like little penny carnivals or Peanuts TV specials brought to life. He's one of the few contemporary filmmakers who has truly carved out a niche that only he can or ever will inhabit, but as distinct as his style is, I think it always feels well-suited to the stories he chooses to tell. It helps that his films are modestly scaled and budgeted, they're all under 2 hours -- only two run over 100 minutes -- and except for Fantastic Mr. Fox, they're completely original screenplays. I don't know how much longer he can sustain it, but he never really overstays his welcome and his films always seem to fly just slightly under the radar upon release, so the novelty still hasn't worn off for me.

Wojo 2,453 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I don't see it. I guess the acclaim that Behind the Candelabra received proved there's a demand for biopics about flamboyant piano players. I just thought most biopics wait for the subject to be dead.

Looks more like a continuation of The Avengers / crossed with a modern crime / shoot em up movie.Well, Captain America comics have changed a lot since the 1940s, which the first film drew heavily from. This film is drawing from probably the best run Captain America ever had in the comics, so it better not disappoint. Unfortunately, ever since Iron Man 2 t seems Marvel is more content on getting the cheap laugh than focusing on the drama, so I'm already decided it won't be as good as it should be.

A24 4,354 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 What moments are you thinking of? I only liked one very little short moment and that was the video footage of a dozen architects running away from something.OTOH, if they ran away from that squid at the end of the movie, then I don't get it. With twelve of those supermen, they easily could have ripped it apart. Nothing makes much sense in this movie.Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
