Gringo is actually not bad... David Oyelowo nailed the accent... I give it a solid 7/10.

I'm struggling to keep up with the long list complicated movies Koice suggested, then you want me to add a series to it? Kuku kee me!!


Koice, is Westworld worth my time?

Westworld is fantastic. I don't understand why some folks call it a mindf**k, because, clearly, it ain't that... at all. Granted, it gets a bit complicated at the beginning and at the middle, but that can be attributed to it's non-linear mode of storytelling. Towards the ending, however, things started to clear up a little, and answers were finally provided at the season finale. Haven't started watching season 2 as of yet, but I imagine it wouldn't be very hard to follow now that certain antecedents have been cleared. Give it a watch, you'd probably enjoy it.

Having said that, you might find Legion a bit of a head scratcher. Now, that's a proper mindf**ker if ever there is one. It's the television version of Cloud Atlas and a lighter form of the greatest mindf**ker of all, Twin Peaks. Things you see don't always occur on the same timeline or dimension.

Really. I didn't find it as twisted as Memento. It just tells a story over different timelines. Something like the Legion series did recently.

Actually, Momento is easier to decipher. It's a story told in reverse chronological order, whilst Cloud Atlas is about a reincarnation of a soul across centuries, and how the actions of of individual lives impact one another in the past, present and future, and as one soul is shaped from a killer to a hero through an act of kindness, to inspire a revolution. Kinda convoluted, isn't it? Yup, that's Cloud Atlas in a heartbeat.

I will watch Westworld especially now you've confirmed it's not like Cloud Atlas. I don't need a show that'll leave me scratching my head, which also rules out Legion. But my curiosity is piqued with mention of Twin Peaks. Is it worth the watch? Also I Googled it and saw it has a 1990 version and also a 2017 version. Which of them is the one you were talking about in this post? The one of 1990 was given a high rating and I love the genre.

Yep, that's Cloud Atlas. I was surprised he found Memento more complicated than Cloud Atlas. Memento is a learner when compared to Cloud Atlas.

And the directors made it more complicated by using same characters across the 6 timelines.

O'boy. I'd rather you watch Legion than Twin Peaks oo. At least, the former tells a story, even if in a very confusing way.

The 2017 installment is the continuation of the series... and the craziest of them all.

Gbam! Cloud Atlas makes Momento look tame by comparison.

A quiet place - well above average rating for me.

Refreshingly interesting.

The Shining - maybe if I'd watched it in the 80s and not with a 20th century perspective/lens, I'd have found it interesting, intriguing and scary like most horror movies. The movie was unnecessarily long, with unnecessary long dialogues instead of cutting to the chase and getting down to the basics. The acting of Jack's wife was particularly uninspiring. I find the movie kinda childish. It didn't get my heart racing one bit till around the last 15 minutes of the film when Wendy started seeing ghosts and the flowing blood. I mean, it took over an hour for me to witness a real ghost action when the old woman and Jack kissed. I slept off last night while watching it after the Champions League final match. That's how boring I found it. embarassed

The Shining 3/10. Koice, this is the only taint in your list of wonderful suggestions. grin

Be careful with old movies, they are like throwback photos and you know how they look compared to new advanced tech cams.

Pacific Rim 2: Uprising.

I feel like I'm about to be disappointed, but it's nice hearing Boyega's natural accent. Wait a sec, no bi WizKid's voice be that... 3 minutes and he's still narrating?!

I'm surprised to hear that, cuz I geniunely found it scary when I saw it like 13 years ago. Maybe it helped that I read the novel prior to, but again, I've always liked classics. 3/10 is not a fair score for a classic.

Good point. The Godfather comes to mind. It's old and the video quality when compared with the 21st high standards is very meh, but it's perfect for that period, and added to the air of authenticity.
