Why does this movie get so much praise? I mean, really. I thought I was going to love it, but I am hugely disappointed. Yes, the acting was good, but I didn't find the movie funny, nor entertaining. Very overrated imo, and I quite like Kubrick. I thought 2001 and A Clockwork Orange were both great. Dr. Strangelove, on the other hand, I would probably rate 5/10. But I really don't know what to make of it right now.
Besides that, it is of course one of the most hilarious films of all time.
It may very well be Kubrick's best film, although I generally consider A Clockwork Orange to be my favorite. Dr. Strangelove has one of the best endings EVER, though. A brilliant piece of black comedy.

It's one of the best comedies of all time. It captures the ridiculousness of the Cold War and how the world leaders have completely lost their minds regarding the real essence of existence and life in a brilliantly absurd and dark way. It's one of the best satires ever made about war.

Seeing as how I was quite tired whilst watching it though, and I was finding it difficult to concentrate at the same time, I think I'll have to give it another go one day. I feel the same way about Raiders of the Lost Ark, during which I was 70% asleep, 30% awake. I will see them both when I am fully awake one day. But I don't expect to love Dr. Strangelove, probably I'll just appreciate it more.

Yes, I understood what it captures, and how it does that. But I fail to understand what's so great about it. Why should it receive so much praise for simply being a satire about war? I just don't get it. I am not saying I hated it, I was just extremely disappointed.
I guess you should be very awake during this film, though, as it has some very subtle moments of comic brilliance and the purpose of it all may not be very clear if you don't concentrate well enough on it.

Sinister.
Not bad. Not as scary as has been made out but probably much better on the big screen.
7/10

I cannot describe how much I loved this movie. Truely, it left me with a feeling of having to change something in my life, and no other movie had been able to do this on me before.
Genius, genius movie. I would give it a 5, but I don't believe in perfection.

Man of Steel (2013) - Zack Snyder
So disappointing. I've liked most of Snyder's films but he really needs to learn the difference between a movie and a video game. Like Sucker Punch, this was like a collection of battles - once completed you move on to the next level. I though that Superman would be re-created as a flawed hero. There was little of that and some of the story elements and scenes were simply dumb (Costner/tornado scene - WTF?).
Action was great but there was too much - almost no "light and shade". My partner said she was bored after half an hour. I was never bored as such because the action was entertaining but wasn't exactly interested either.
4/10 for the action.

I really enjoyed this movie! I've seen it twice now and I liked it just as much the second time as the first. I am glad that I watched it again because I figured out some things that I missed the first time around, like where that ship that the Army found came from. There are three things that bother me: 1) There is no 'Kneel before Zod', dude said that all the time, why would you take that away? 2) The tornado scene, I mean come on! Really Costner? 3) The noise. The action scenes are almost non-stop in this movie so the explosions and implosions continue through out. The acting was solid and the story was good fun, it makes a great introduction movie for the sequils, we all know there will be more than one super hero movies are making way too much money at the moment. So, all in all I give it
