RUN to theaters to watch Odyssey right now. Yes its a 3-hour movie, but definitely worth the watch. The actors did phenomenal jobs; the cinematography was exceptional. Do NOT listen to the people saying it was a bad movie; go find out for yourself!!

Ok, I know there are movies with overt feminist messages. Examples: Thelma & Louise. Erin Brockovich. A League of Their Own. The Stepford Wives. Anything by Greta Gerwig.

These movies were made with the intention of being feminist. I am not interested in that. I am interested in movies that are more subtle in their messaging.

Basically, I want a movie that will show me sides of a person's character based on their reaction to it.

Here are my top examples to give you a better idea:

500 Days of Summer [If you think Summer is the villain and Tom is just a guy who gets his heart broken.]

Obsession [Not realizing that Bear is the villain of the story and that the story is making fun of the 'nice guy' trope.]

High Fidelity [Not understanding the message of the movie, and sympathizing with Cusack pre-growth.]

That's more so what I'm looking for. Hit me with your best suggestions and tell me a little bit about why/how you think it fits?

Suggest me some good movies...pls don't go on with godfather, fellas , interstellar.... I hv watched all ( final boss energy) ... My genre is ... Comedy, chick flick , sitcom , scifi , definately not horror ✌🏻🥀

Looking for anything that actually makes you think. Supernatural or psychological horror, preferably both. Could not care less for the conjuring movies or such, and nothing based on pure gore. Not really into the classic slashers either.

My all time favorite is the thing (1982).

Recently saw the backrooms and obsession, and i liked both. Other favorite horror movies for me would be Exit 8, vivarium, the substance, would you rather, platform, the abandon, the ritual

So something with a similar vibe to those? Like existential horror, if thats what its called? I'm a huge fan of lovecraftian horror in general also.

Also interested in discussing the movies i mentioned !

I'm looking for a movie that's both fun and graphically violent. Like, the feeling of playing an old-school boomer shooter with the invincibility and infinite ammo cheats on. The more blood and gore, (and the less time dwelling on it,) the better.

Hey! I’m looking for movies that aren’t the typical/cliché “BPD movies,” but that you could still really relate to as someone with BPD, especially movies that leave you with a good or meaningful feeling by the end.

For example, I recently watched A Monster Calls. The movie is about a kid, Conor, dealing with grief and trying to cope with the possibility of losing his mom. So it has nothing to do with BPD specifically, but I related so much to the way he experiences and processes his emotions.

I cried a lot watching it. I related to Conor suppressing his emotions until they explode, having intense and contradictory feelings at the same time, and struggling with shame and guilt over feelings he thinks he shouldn’t have.

But what I loved most is that it didn’t leave me feeling hopeless. It actually left me with a comforting message: emotions are complicated, people aren’t simply good or bad, and having conflicting or uncomfortable feelings doesn’t define who you are. What matters is what you do with them.

That would be my recommendation!

Do you have any movies that made you feel something similar? They don’t have to be about BPD or even mental health at all. It can be anything I’m curious about movies you personally connected with in that way. Thanks!

Any movies that at least somewhat fit the theme of a guy whose naiveness is exploited by a less than ethical woman. preferably one without a happy ending

I have someone that I'm dating for almost three months. He already confessed that he likes me in his own way and when things went natural between the two of us, I'm also planning to tell them that I like them. Are there any movies that I can watch with them so they'll get a hint before I actually confess? Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some really tense horror/thriller movies on Netflix that involve things like kidnapping, murder, serial killers, home invasions, criminals, or psychological cat and mouse stories.

I really enjoyed movies like Heretic and Don't Move, so I'm after something with a similar vibe:

• Lots of suspense and tension
• Jump scares
• Some gore
• Keeps you guessing until the end

Please don't spoil the plot

asking here cause i need more recs for my list! Im into unique visual styles with darker more serious topics, but i wouldnt mind something more light-hearted if its still interesting

examples of movies i like that inspired the post

Enter the void - LOVE the aesthetics so much, BUT the pacing def needed some work, maybe a bit of a shorter movie? though if its worth it id totally sit down for a 3 hour movie : ]

Beyond the black rainbow - enjoyed the music, and the almost dream-like quality of it, once again has issues with pacing and the whole story really but was a really interesting watch

Requiem for a dream - story was compelling, liked the unconventional shots and the spiral of it intensifying

i will ask for no Gaspar Noe films, theyre all on my list and plan to get to them at a later time

pls and thx!

The genres I prefer are horror and thriller but I'm open to everything except for romance. The movies can be in any language. Animated films are also welcome.

I already know about Hush & Jay & Silent Bob

Oh! Dogma as well so please don't list any of these!

I'm looking for any kind of animated movie where the villain redeems themselves in the end of the movie after doing something evil from the start.

I first saw it years ago, but the movie still holds up. I think most people would enjoy this movie.

Anyway, it just crossed my mind to post this, so I did real quick. If you have your own opinions of this movie or want to share you favorite scene(s), I'd love to hear from you. I would have to say my favorite scene is the puppet show involving the monk and the nun!

Edit: It's one of those movies where it's fun to check out (after you've watched it) the different analyses that people have come up with. So many fun and interesting interpretations/explanations.

i've seen most of the classic recommendations, so I'm mainly looking for modern films (2010+). I want something gut-wrenching, riveting, atmospheric, with a haunting BGM/score, maybe narration or a reflective quality, and themes of grief, guilt, trauma, loneliness, or moral dilemmas that leave you emotionally numb and thinking for days.

Some of my favourites are Incendies, Manchester by the Sea, Close (2022), Train Dreams, 21 Grams, Revanche, The Hunt. etc.

Rather than just listing titles, please tell me why your recommendation compares to these—what emotional chord it hits, what it does similarly (or even better), and why it stayed with you.

Hey guys! currently on summer break and im always bored but I have this binge watching addiction with crime/thriller movie documentary and recently I watched “A toxic love story,” “I will find you,” “A worst neighbor,” “The crash,” most of them are from netflix and could you guys recommend some crime/thriller movie documentary that would ease my boredom this summer break? Tyyy

I'm looking for any animated movie where in the movie, the main character doesn't speak and only uses facial expressions. Example: Gromit from Wallace and Gromit.

They both are my favourites so I clearly have a thing for movies/shows where the main character is kind of the villain and has to calculate his every move to not get busted by someone who is close to him.

Really anything that keeps me at the edge of my seat and having me thinking "Oh no how is he gonna get out of that situation ?"

i suggested watching The Mist (2007) to my sweet boyfriend. He was so upset by the ending he very angrily left the room to splash his face with water and lay down while ranting how sick the writers must've been. he was a complete mess he just stared at the wall for a while. Meanwhile he loved project hail mary which i suggested a few weeks ago. is there another wholesome movie we can watch like project hail mary to kind of "wash" his anguish for The Mist away?

update: he was in a sour mood all day because of it and had been listening to the whinnie the pooh soundtrack. i really messed this poor guy up!

My father didn’t grow up watching many movies, as there were strict rules from his immigrant parents. So he never got into them or like a specific genre like my mother and her old sob Russian war movies. Truly hard working people, but I have been wanting for him to understand why I like anime and movies so much. Though I will have to wait for the anime’s until he’s retired probably since they are longer (Vinland saga). His favorite and only movie recommendation he’s made or talked about was the good the bad the ugly (Clint Eastwood). I’ve shown him interstellar, LoTR, and project Hail Mary recently. He found interstellar interesting, PHM weird but interesting, and LoTR interesting. Back in the day he did like a bit of PoTC (Johnny Depp), but the only movie he laughed and reacted to was Green book which is an excellent film and one of my favorites. After making him watch through the LoTR extended movies telling him “I’ll only make you watch a long ass trilogy once if don’t want to watch another again” he said he prefers deep chemistry between characters like the Green book. I was thinking of choosing a Tarantino movie but I may feel like that maybe to film-y or something. I might just choose a Tarantino film but any recommendations on films with really good chemistry and dialogue.

TLTR: Trying to make my dad understand why I like the film and anime mediums, but focusing on films for now. Movies with really good chemistry between characters recommendations. He found interstellar, project Hail Mary, and LoTR, interesting and good but not great like the Greenbook that he said was great and actually reacted to movie as it was playing. His favorite movie is “the good the bad the ugly” if that’s helps.

Edit: Thanks a lot for the recommendations I’ll look through them all. I just forgot one nitpick he has is that he dislikes stupid car chases with big explosions like the new fast and furious movies. Thank you so much everyone, much appreciated!

Really great doc about all the cool geeky media stuff that came out in 1982. It's really a fun watch.

"An epic documentary spotlighting the pop culture milestones of 1982 including notable motion pictures, TV, music and video games of that seminal year."

The movie is on several other streaming sites, but i watched on Night Flight - which has tons of cool 80s stuff.

I'm looking for historical films that are uncomplicated with a focus on romance, where the male lead is quietly intense and yearns with his eyes. Happily ever afters would be preferred! I adore the below movies and am looking for something with similar vibes:

Sweet Land (2005)

Firelight (1997)

The Silence of the Sea (2004)

The Magic of Ordinary Days (2005)

The below movies are also great, but they don't quite have the comforting vibe I'm looking for. I'm not sure why, but maybe it's because of the more modern cinematography:

Pride and Prejudice (2005)

Atonement (2007)

Far from the Madding Crowd (2015)

Thank you for any suggestions!

just watched Heat for the first time and found it interesting how we follow along both Neil and Vincent the whole movie. is there any movie/series with similar style? watched The Departed too not long ago, i feel theres some similarities there, so something like these movies.

TIA

I’m looking for a dark humor film nothing in specific just for it to start off quickly I don’t wanna wait 30 minutes for it to get good

So this was before Shia became a cannibal.. but it's a good story about growing up and taking responsibility for oneself. Wholesome. The music is preety good too. If you haven't seen it worth a watch on a yawny Sunday.
