- DirectorJonathan KingStarsOliver DriverNathan MeisterTammy DavisAn experiment in genetic engineering turns harmless sheep into bloodthirsty killers that terrorize a sprawling New Zealand farm.For me it combines all the best tropes of zombie and werewolf movies (which are my 2 favorite horror subjects but are so rarely done well); it has a good tone with parts being genuinely, well not always scary but at least disturbing, but an overall light vibe with moments of comedy.
I like that the premise at first seems like a straight joke, but it pans out into a really good horror movie. - DirectorJonah MarkowitzStarsTrevor WrightBrad RoweTina HolmesWhen his college dreams are sidelined by family obligations, a young man finds comfort in surfing with his best friend's brother.I tend to watch any movie I hear is even slightly "gay-themed" even though to be honest most of them turn out to be sh*t.
I only saw this a year ago or so but I've watched it a few times now. It is well written and the characters are pretty well fleshed out and feel real especially given the length , the soundtrack is frankly amazing, and it's in that perfect place of "low budget" where even if the film quality suffers a little you can tell the director actually understands how to make a movie. - DirectorGeorge MillerStarsTom HardyCharlize TheronNicholas HoultIn a post-apocalyptic wasteland, a woman rebels against a tyrannical ruler in search for her homeland with the aid of a group of female prisoners, a psychotic worshiper and a drifter named Max.I remember watching the first 2 Mad Max movies when I was younger (I mean like around 2010 or so when I was a teenager) and while I definitely liked parts of the second one, neither left much of an impression on me.
So honestly I have no idea why I even went to see this when it came out, other than it had Nicolas Holt in it.
I was very pleasantly surprised and there was just so much that was great about this film.
I don't mean to dismiss people who like the first 3 It's just that I personally loved this as just a standalone movie. - DirectorBrad BirdStarsEli MarienthalHarry Connick Jr.Jennifer AnistonA young boy befriends a giant robot from outer space that a paranoid government agent wants to destroy.
- DirectorGuillermo del ToroStarsIdris ElbaCharlie HunnamRinko KikuchiAs a war between humankind and monstrous sea creatures wages on, a former pilot and a trainee are paired up to drive a seemingly obsolete special weapon in a desperate effort to save the world from the apocalypse.
- DirectorPeter JacksonStarsElijah WoodIan McKellenOrlando BloomA meek Hobbit from the Shire and eight companions set out on a journey to destroy the powerful One Ring and save Middle-earth from the Dark Lord Sauron.
- DirectorJim StenstrumStarsScott InnesBilly WestMary Kay BergmanThe Mystery Gang reunite and visit Moonscar Island, a remote island with a dark secret. Daphne wants more than just a villain in a costume, and they get more than they ever expected.
- DirectorSergio LeoneStarsClint EastwoodEli WallachLee Van CleefA bounty hunting scam joins two men in an uneasy alliance against a third in a race to find a fortune in gold buried in a remote cemetery.When I was around 8 or 9 and staying at my mother's house this was on tv at like 2am and she made it sound cool so I begged to stay up with her and watch it.
I was instantly amazed with it, I still remember how cool it was when Tuco opens up the carriage full of bodies.
I don't like movies, games, or books based on nostalgia (I've spent a bunch of money in the past on games I loved as a kid only to find out they suck after a few minutes) but I will always remember the first time I saw this.
every year or so at least I watch this and despite the length this is one of the few films I genuinely enjoy every part of. - DirectorMartin RosenJohn HubleyStarsJohn HurtRichard BriersRalph RichardsonHoping to escape destruction by human developers and save their community, a colony of rabbits, led by Hazel and Fiver, seek out a safe place to set up a new warren.

However at its heart this is a very fun movie. I mean sure its not the smartest, but its not really too dumb either.
I find it pretty engaging throughout, and for the time the cg still holds up remarkably well for the most part.
Its a good movie to watch on a cold winter day curled up with a blanket and/or another person. - DirectorJonathan LevineStarsNicholas HoultTeresa PalmerJohn MalkovichAfter a highly unusual zombie saves a still-living girl from an attack, the two form a relationship that sets in motion events that might transform the entire lifeless world.
