What movie SHOCKED you

Recommended Posts

The lucky number sleven. Never heard of the movie. Didn't see press for it. Not even sure they did any. Has a sh!t ton of stars in it and was a pretty sweet movie. I watched it and was floored as to how it flew under the radar for me. Went into it thinking "great....... Its HER turn to pick a movie and THIS is what she wants.....the title even looks stupid" and came out of it thinking daaaaaamnnn....im watching that again when she goes to sleep.

 

 

 

 

Get him to the greek. I saw a preview for this and thought it was going to be the worst movie ever made. I was not even sure what the fock P diddy was saying in the preview.....and really......how good of an actor can Diddy be? Caught it at the start on one of the movie channels.....and could not stop laughing. One of the best comedies I have seen since super troopers and had me laughing hard. I gauge a comedy by how many times I actually laughed out loud or if it had me in tears at all from laughing too hard. This one had lots of both.

Hot Tub Time Machine.

 

Looked like the dumbest idea ever...but was hilarious.

 

Ditto. I've watched it 3 times already.

 

Priest - Not that it was great, but it looked horrible and I heard multiple scathing reviews. Wasn't bad IMO.

The Other Guys - Again, looked soooo horrible. But I've stumbled across it multiple times and end up watching to the end

Bench Warmers - For a kids movie, I've been in tears in a couple of parts from laughter

Agreed. That movie was at least 100 times more hilarious than I was expecting.

Nice call on The Other Guys....its one that you have to watch a couple times to really get how funny some of the lines are.

For some reason, I really love that movie and watch it on cable every time it's on.

Boogie Nights.

 

Back when I could work, some dudes were talking about Dirk Diggler. I was like, WTF is Dirk Diggler. My friends(Back when I had some) acted all shocked I had not seen the movie yet. I mentioned it to my ex wife and she rented it from the library. I was like, I don't want to watch some stupid long ass movie about the pron industry, I would rather just watch a porn movie.

 

I focking loved that movie and was blown away by how good it was.

Brokeback Mountain :ninja:

 

Seriously, Ann Hathaway's t!ts make it less gay.

 

I agree that (500) Days of Summer wasn't bad either.

 

Red State- Kevin Smith hasn't made a decent movie in forever.

"You might want to put a fielder in those mountains, just in case of....KABANG!!"

 

 

That was my son's catchphrase when his LL team played its way into a tournament in West Virgina a couple of years ago. Every time someone hit a ball hard i could hear him in the dugout yelling "Ka-Bang!!!"

It wasn't shock level surprise, but Apocalypto was a lot better than I anticipated. Really beautiful cinematography, and very suspenseful.

Agreed. I went in thinking it would be a mess but it was actually pretty damn good. Mel Gibson may be batsh!t insane but he knows how to make an interesting movie. :thumbsup:

Shocked like I didn't expect to like it but loved it?

 

In Bruges was like that - I didn't really want to see it but was blown away at how downbeat and dark it was. More recently The Guard with Don Cheadle and Brendan Gleason, probably the best movie I've seen in the last 6 months. If you're into foreign films, this Spanish movie called The Uninvited Guest was just unpredictable and wild.

 

Shocked, like it was shocking?

 

The first hour of the Human Centipede 2 was dull ... the last 30-45 minutes was so grotesque and over the top I sat there with my jaw on the floor laughing out loud, thinking "I can't focking believe what I'm seeing!" over and over again. :shocking: :o

Good call on The Other Guys. I rented it because there was nothing else at the Red Box and I was cracking up the majority of the time.

 

"You thinking what I'm thinking?"

 

"Aim for the bushes."

After a foul tip to the catcher...

 

David Spade "I ticked it! I ticked it!"

13 year old Catcher "You're still OUT"

David Spade "Well...you're still fat"

Agreed. This is one of my all time favorite movies. I think what I liked about it was the whole timeline of the social change from acceptance of drugs/sex in the late 70's Vietnam/counterculture era to the Reagan social conservative swing in the early 80's. Buck can't get a loan at a bank; Dirk get's phag bashed, etc. Also the change in the porn industry from films to VHS mailing. Imagine how the porn industry changed at the invention of the internet? Stay at home and rub one out to nipple slips of Bea Arthur.

Behind The Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon- fake documentary / horror movie, absolutely hilarious at times.

 

Thank You For Smoking- Love this movie, great cast as well.

 

I'll second Pleasantville and Big Fish as well, great movies.

A few years ago I was renting a couple of movies and the mrs(36c)had requested I try and find a decent romantic comedy (right :wall: )to go along with one of my kind of movies,generally psychlogical thriller or heavy drama.

 

Anyhow I come across a movie called Playing By Heart with a sh!tload of big names including Sean Connery,Dennis Quaid,Angelina Jolie and more and thought wtf I'll bite.

 

In other words gents if your mrs. entrusts you some evening to pick the movies and she likes romantic comedies/drama believe me you could do a lot worse.

Ong Bok - A buddy and I had some time to kill and decided to watch a movie. We went to the theater without knowing what was playing and everything looked like the ghey except for something called "Thai Warrior". It turned out to be one of the better kung-fu type movies I've ever seen.

 

The Hangover - I had actually planned on skipping this movie because it looked like one of those movies where all the funny parts were in the commercial. My wife talked me into going to see it and I loved it the entire time.

Totally agree. Even though it was a huge success, I'm amazed that I can watch it over and over and still laugh the most irrelevant parts.

 

Stu Price: I'll tell you another thing - 6 to 1 odds our car is beat to sh1t.

Phil Wenneck: Come on Stu.

Stu Price: No seriously how much you want to bet it's focked up beyond all recognition?

Good call on In Bruges. I usually hate Colin Farrell, but he was surprisingly good in that movie.
