This is one of my favorite Tom Hanks movies:

This one, imo, was terrible, despite having first-rate actors Johnny Depp, Leo DiCaprio and John C. Reilly:

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

1. Movies i loved: Weapons, Wicked, Godzilla Minus one

I liked 'Superman' 2025

[catbyte]

2. A recent movie I liked:

I can't handle "serious" movies these days. Reality sucks enough.

And I don't know why this movie ticked me off so much but I hated it:

[red dog 1]

4. The Fall Guy looks very good.

Hook, not so much.

[yellowdogintexas]

7. Hook is a great movie! Dustin Hoffman totally takes over the movie as Hook nt

[ProfessorGAC]

3. Liked: Too Numerous To List

Disliked: Gone With The Wind & Titanic. I find both absolutle awful.

[LogDog75]

5. Any of the Godfather movies

[Morbius]

11. Well...

The Godfather was about power.
The Godfather Part II was about the price of power.
The Godfather Part III was about three hours long.

The first two are in my top ten best movies ever made. The third one was by comparison awful, and even without comparing it to the first two it was mediocre.

I loathe Mrs. Doubtfire.

[3catwoman3]

6. I really, really disliked Forrest Gump - too unrealistic.

I hated Terms of Endearment.

[yellowdogintexas]

8. I hated The English Patient, The Exorcist.

There are too many that I really liked ....

[red dog 1]

9. I couldn't stand The English Patient

The Exorcist I liked.

[TexasBushwhacker]

22. I hated TEP too

Even though I love Ralph Fiennes. I'm not a fan of films that glorify adultery. She's married to Colin Firth and fancies a shag with Ralph Fiennes? Sew your wild oats when you're single. Geesh!

I felt the same way about Bridges of Madison County.

I didn't find The Exorcist scary because I don't believe in demons, possession and all that nonsense. Good special effects for the time though.

23. Well, it wouldn't be a DU movie critique site---

---without a good, solid trashing of "The English Patient." Never fails; been happening for years.

Not my favorite movie, but I thought it was pretty solid. The novel is worth a look, as well.

10. I liked Flag Day.....Did not like The Station Agent

Flag Day is a 2021 drama based on Jennifer Vogel's 2004 memoir, Flim-Flam Man: A True Family History.
It's directed by and stars Sean Penn.
His daughter, Dylan Penn, plays Jennifer Vogel.
It's an excellent film.

13. Steven Spielberg

"The Post" is one of the best films I've ever seen.

I did not like this one.

[electric_blue68]

18. Ooooo, The Post was real good!

[mwmisses4289]

14. Wow. where to start?

Absolutely hate Gone with the wind. While I admire the tech that was amazing for it's time, the movie was based on one of the few books that I feel should be banned/burned because it was so awful- poorly written, too long, awful characters, especially the main character, scarlet, scarletta, whatever her name is.

Current favorite movies are Coco and Encanto.

[chouchou]

15. Didn't care for "Weapons" Rather boring and convoluted.

On the other hand, "Nobody2" was fun, just because the proverbial ignorant Hillbillies/Rednecks got their asses beat.

[Upthevibe]

16. red dog 1.........

I have many that I love and watch over and over again! Some that I have on my DVR are:
Pulp Fiction
The Fugitive
Casino
Goodfellas
Casablanca
Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
All the President's Men
The Wizard of Oz
And many, many more.

Movies are my thing! I always have something playing on my T.V. in the background.

I don't like the action or adventure movies..........

[red dog 1]

17. Since you liked "All the President's Men" you might also like "The Post"

(See reply # 13)

It stars Meryl Streep & Tom Hanks and was directed and produced by Steven Spielberg.

[Upthevibe]

20. red dog 1..........

I LOVED The Post. It was the first and only time Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks were in the same movie...

[Emile]

19. "Chariots of Fire" was boring as hell.

[Upthevibe]

21. Emile.......

I know! OMG............

[Ritabert]

26. Liked "L.A. Confidential" and any Bogie movie

Disliked "Titanic" and"The English Patient".

[Jim__]

27. I liked Blue Velvet

[rsdsharp]

28. Liked From Here To Eternity.

Hated The Thin Red Line.

I don’t think they made Whistle into a movie.

[Xolodno]

29. Going to catch some heat from this...

...but oh well.

I actually liked Showgirls and disliked Pulp Fiction.

In the hatred category, The Last Jedi. As for the Rise of Skywalker, sure, I didn't like it. But after Rian Johnsons, if you can even call it a movie, that was probably the best they could do to salvage things. Should have done the Dallas swerve and Luke just wakes up from a bad dream and restart the saga.

Lord of the Rings trilogy was great, the Hobbit, they should have just paid Peter Jackson what he wanted.

[Mad_Dem_X]

30. I didn't like Pulp Fiction, either.

I think it's terribly overrated.

No comment on Showgirls.
