Thor 7,515 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 By the way, anyone else excited about Villeneuve's new sci fi film ARRIVAL, which will premiere in Venice later this year? Seems like a perfect warmup to the new BLADE RUNNER movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,370 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Prisoners was so, so good but then Enemy was so, so bad, I'm cautiously optimistic about Arrival. Oh, Sicario was in between too. I liked that one, but it wasn't very memorable, unlike Prisoners which I still think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Sicario was underwhelming and very forgettable. Haven't seen any of his others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,345 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 If you're going to see one Villeneuve movie, let it be Prisoners. When I was watching, I thought I was witnessing the birth of the next great director. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than acting performances, I think that the storytelling (the way in which the story was told - I truly was as tense as a piano string) and the ethical question at the heart of the story were the stars of the movie.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Well sure. But Jackman was really good. It's amazing to me that he was Oscar nominated for the pile of garbage that was Les Mis and not Prisoners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Sicario is a great film. Masterful exercise in tension and atmosphere. But Prisoners easily remains his most haunting work.

Thor 7,515 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Scott will still be producer, as far as I know. Villeneuve is IMO one of THE brightest director talents in recent years. ENNEMI is also seriously underrated, but fortunately enjoys a lot of positive buzz in the film critic circles I'm frequenting. I've told myself that I'm going to sit down at some point (soon) and watch all his pre-PRISONERS movies, including the shorts. Heard a lot of good stuff about INCENDIES, for example.
