What was the last movie you've seen?

[prfsnl_gmr]

I keep seeing this guy and Poirot as a recommendation on Netflix. I know nothing about the character. What's the movie/series/story about? (I mean general, not spoiler-filled, for those who know about it).

Hercule Poirot is a fictional Belgian Detective originally in books by Agatha Christie. So it is a mystery show, often murder mysteries.

And Suchet adds a dimension to the character that elegantly fleshes out the one in the books. ITV are filming the last Christie books thereby completing her bibliography..

My wife watched the show with her parents when she was growing up, and we are now watching it together on Netflix. David Suchet is awesome, and I love the show. (Seriously, we are now making "Chuck Norris"-style jokes about the actor who plays our favorite Belgian detective...) Highly recommended.

Have you seen this one before? It's definitely one of my all-time favs. Good picks all around, though.

I don't know if y'all are interested in foreign films, but I'd like to give a tip of the hat to a French film titled The Intouchables.

Pretty spectacular, I saw it twice in the theaters.

hahaha I like when I hear this "foreign film" , its like "it came from the outer world" . Everything is foreign here, as a matter of fact you can hardly find something local

I think I've nailed the Bane voice, and my wife hates it.

You start with a Goldfinger voice, and every sentence and inflection is spoken like the wave on a bell curve. Start low, peak at the middle of the sentence, and come back down.

"It seems we have run out of Cheerios."

You are not wrong, Bane does sound almost like Goldfinger. But I am pretty sure there is some character in some movie/game/tv show that had exact voice and style.

When I heard him speak, I was like "i know this guy!" . I really dont think the creators of this movie given so much thought to create a new style of speaking just for Bane. I am sure they ripped it off from some where...the question is , where!?

Sinister - true crime writer Ellison (Ethan Hawke) moves his family to a house where a brutal murder was committed in order to write about the case. But when he finds a box of strange footage in the attic, detailing not only the murder of the previous inhabitants, but many more killings since the late 60's, things start to go awry and Ellison has unwittingly put him and his family in mortal danger. I enjoyed this one for the most part, Hawke does well as the struggling writer weighing his fear against his desire to succeed in writing his best novel yet, and as things start to unravel his fear, at first more of a sick uneasiness at the brutal nature of the footage he is witnessing, and then later the terror of the films supernatural elements, rubs off on the viewer and helps create the unsettling tone that pervades almost every scene. Ultimately, while I very much approved of the way the film ends, I thought it gave up too much, too soon when the supernatural manifested itself more and more outside of the found footage.

This looks very interesting to me. IMDb says it's supposed to come out in October. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.
