Man found a love so strong he turned his back on his livelihood and identity. Woman loved him so much she was still trying to take care of him from beyond the grave.
Villains take away his last gift from his true love and he rains down hell upon them with no remorse. His original nature is shown crystal clear.
Final scene...man continues on with life honoring his beloved's last wish for him as best he can.
Agree on a lot (Donnie Darko, Citizen Kane), or can see how someone else might not like it (Interstellar, GTWTW).

I like Russell's other movies though--didn't see Joy--including American Hustle. Hustle is a mess, and is just a bunch of scenes and big performances, with something of a through line since it's about cons, but I still liked it.I liked the fighter a lot.
Just not those moves in general. No director hate.

Also whoever mentioned Donnie Darko...if that qualifies sign me up. I hated that movie. All emo moodiness and just incoherent.

Outside of people going in with huge expectations, I don't see how anybody can say that movie sucks, unless they hate black and white or some other arbitrary thing.

I also wasn't a fan of the 70mm. Maybe other people will disagree but I didn't think it added much, and it was too cute. One of those cases where breaking the rules doesn't quite work, since the more widescreen a movie is usually that means the better it is for big, grand, epic entertainment as opposed to what Hateful 8 was, which is basically a parlor movie with lots of people stuck in one spot and tension between them all. I saw the movie twice in an equipped theater, and that whole "something else is going on" in the rest of the frame, which QT has talked about, is really overblown, I think.
Jackie Brown I liked fine the first time I saw it, but didn't love it because I expected something else. But I've grown to love it more and more over time. I doubt that will be true of the hateful 8 since I've seen and have liked plenty of westerns and mystery type movies, and this one was just....fine.

Edit: I am glad it put 70mm in the public conscience though, I overheard people talking about it as I walked out of the theater (I saw a 70mm showing, but I was so close to the screen I may as well have caught a digital screening with a better seat). Granted they had no idea what they were talking about, they commented on the movie's "high refresh rate", but I think that actually helps my point.

Not too surprised that the misc would hate the godfather given the old school pacing (inb4 someone names even a more recent but older movie like Die Hard), and how a big crosssection doesn't care for immigrants and accordingly would be sour on the immigrant experience which makes up a big part of the narrative.

Everything, or at least the background stuff, does usually have to be in focus for that to work though, as you pointed out.Exactly.

Most of these been mentioned but....
1) Donnie Darko - weird for the sake of weird. Found it mediocre.
2) Requiem for a dream - depressing as phuk. Too bad for these 2 since Gylenhall has gotten a lot better since.
3) Anything by Quentin Tarantino except Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs. Find most of his stuff boring and overly gory.
4) Fight Club - Tries too hard to be "deep". Didn't hate it but didn't enjoy it.
5) V for Vendetta - Found it cliche and boring
6) Newest Star Wars - mediocre copy of New Hope
7) The Martian - Too long and drawn out plus too unrealistic. Seemed like it was trying to be a comedy.
8) Avengers - Marvel movies are overrated. Only one that was decent was winter soldier. Havent seen civil war.
Movies that didnt get rated high enough
1) Heat - DeNiro, Pacino, Kilmer...list goes on. One of the best movies of all time. Think it deserves even higher than where it is.
2) Collateral - Tom Cruise played one of the best villains i've seen
3) Training Day
4) Minority Report
5) Nightcrawler
6) Drive

LOL; In other words, for 3, they only got hooked into that narrative pull of the story and didn't bother to think much beyond that, or just did the symbolism of that and didn't think about the rest of what's going on in the movie. There's a reason critics and filmmakers both consistently recognize that movie all these years later, and it's not simply accepted wisdom.Meh, I'm probably closer to the group you're talking about than the opposite but I love the movie.

Night movies, LA, and rogue heroes much? I like to love all those movies, but I wouldn't majorly push Nightcrawler or Training Day, though I liked both a good bit. Those are more flawed imo. Minority Report is really underrecognized. Heat has gotten lots of online love lately and deservedly so. And Collateral is also a great movie. Miami Vice is definitely underrated too. I didn't like it at the time, but it's grown on me. Still, I'd say Collateral is the last Michael Mann masterpiece.

Really underrated. Think it could've been a lot better with better actors though.
Yeah man, really want to watch Blackhat but i'm in the same boat. Love Mann as a director but have not heard good things at all....sucks. Wish he would come out with some more quality stuff.
EDIT: Very much agreed on the bold.

For those that didn't like Donnie Darko take a look at this explanation. It's actually a serious mind fuk of a movie when you understand. I was the same the first time I watched it, but this puts it into perspective.

The Martian, Taxi Driver, and Citizen ****ing Kane.
The Martian had zero drama and was basically just Matt Damon reading from the book.
Taxi Driver does absolutely nothing to get me invested in Travis Bickle the reddit poster.
Citizen Kane is no doubt one of the most important movies in film history, but it's boring as ****.

additionally....I don't want to get into a major discussion about Taxi Driver, but do you think you're supposed to get hugely invested with Travis? I must've a bit more than you, but he's hardly supposed to be the John Wayne or Will Smith of the movie.

As in Heat, Collateral, Drive, Nightcrawler all have really deep characters who are far more than a "bad guy" or "good guy". They speak more to the brutality of life with doing whatever you can to get what you want. You really find yourself liking the characters, as phuked up as they are.
Also Agreed about miami vice. Really underrated. Think it could've been a lot better with better actors though.
Yeah man, really want to watch Blackhat but i'm in the same boat. Love Mann as a director but have not heard good things at all....sucks. Wish he would come out with some more quality stuff.
EDIT: Very much agreed on the bold.

"The wizard of Oz"
Even as a kid I thought the movie was boring as hell. Like I was sitting in 2nd grade math class while watching it. Id rather had been drawing dicks on my trapper keeper.
I also love organized crime movies but I could never make it through "The Godfather" for some reason.

Civil war. Dont get me wrong, it had entertaining parts, but the vast majority was boring as hell.

Someday? Someday my dream will come? One night you will wake up and discover it never happened. It's all turned around on you. It never will. Suddenly you are old. Didn't happen, and it never will, because you were never going to do it anyway.
