Annie Hall(1977)
The film that beat Star Wars for the best picture Oscar and really launched the modern rom-com genre.Woody Allen plays a neurotic comedian who loves,then loses a nightclub singer in Diane Keaton.Wonderful performances and the type of witty dialogue that Hollywood lacks so badly these days.
8.5/10

Yojimbo(1961)
Mifune's scruffy looking ronin meanders into a small town that is in the midst of gang war and proceeds to pit the two factions against each other in order to come out on top.A superb allegory of post war Japanese corruption and one of director Kurosawa's best films.
8.5/10

RE: Last film you watched
The Amazing Spider-Man 2
The only thing I liked about was the new suit, Spider-Man's one liners, the special effects and the chemistry between Andrew Garfield & Emma Stone as the time they were dating. At times the film was too funny.
The story and plot was godful, the villains in the movie were terrible Jamie Foxx is a good actor but as Max/Electro bad there was no motivation behind him being a villain only that he was sulking because Spider-Man never remembered his name and Max thought he was his friend, his eyes and ears am sorry that's not enough to make you feel threatened. It was Max's birthday yet he was in a coma for a couple weeks and where did he get his suit from?.
Paul Giamatti great actor but again shit as Rhino, the silly accent and the suit at the end along with the kid dressesd in a Spider-Man outfit I cringed. His performance wasn't needed at start and ending.
Dane Osborn as Harry Osborn good actor but not great in this role you don't buy that Peter and Harry were best friends it feels shoe horned in it was done better in the Sam Rami version. If Harry and his father Norman have the same illness why is it effecting Harry faster?, and how does Harry know how to use the glider and now thanks to the spider venom his illness comes and goes and looked dumb as the green goblin wtf.
With what happens to Gwen I felt nothing after what happened to her, the flashbacks with Peters dad Richard on the plane he has modern day laptop/computer but it's years in the past wtf.
They copied Max/Electro fixation with Spider-Man from the riddlers fixation with Bruce Wayne in Batman Forever.
The film looks stunning and Andrew Garfield is good and as Spider-Man but as Peter Parker he acts too cool, the romance side of the film went on too long and dragged the film down too which the film was too long. As for the ending terrible, in some ways this film is worse then Spider-Man 3 and film score was bad and too much slow mo, I actually liked the first film and a ton of stuff was cut out including Mary Jane.
6.3/10.
