For me, personally, It would be Snatch. It's such a great movie that I could watch again and again. So many interesting characters and a unique style that sets it apart from so many other movies. There's just that extra something in that movie
What about you, fellow Lemmites? What is your favourite movie?
If you love THFRO what do you think about Das Boot?
Just finished it. I'd heard about it, and many people recommend it when red October is mentioned (and vice versa). I'm not sure I'd put them in the same genre.
I'm not sure what I think at the moment. It was very long, but had some very intense scenes. I think it was trying to get me to feel deeply for the characters (especially the captain) but it didn't really reach me (spoiler) Eg The people jumping off the burning ship.
I'm also not sure yet what to think about the fact that (spoiler) the whole movie takes place on the submarine, with no cut aways. I think on one hand it added to the tension of surface ships trying to find them, but on the other hand it was difficult to orient the story without visuals for location or relative locations.
I feel the length was included to show how boring it can be waiting for orders or enemies, but a shorter cut might've been more engaging.
It's not a movie I'd go and rewatch in a hurry (if ever). Red October has much more rewatchability.
