Any suggestions for biopics, especially underrated ones?
I love biopics and have watched many. To mention a few:
Cinderella man/ Schindler's list/ Raging Bull/ Rocky series/ The wolf of Wall Street / Goodfellas / The imitation game/ Moneyball/ A beautiful mind/ The social network/ The pianist / The aviator / The blind side/ Into the wild/ Hotel Rwanda
Please suggest. Thank you.
I tried this some time ago in some other subreddit, and also I just checked up the same request here. But I was not satisfied. Someone suggested "Everything Everywhere All at Once"—yeah, tried to watch it once, wasn't interested, stopped after 15 minutes. And it seemed to be NOTHING like "Scott Pilgrim". Other movies of the director? Kinda fun, better than OK movies—yet NOTHING like "Scott Pilgrim". James Gunn's? Same. "Kickass"? Didn't like it.
If you ask me to try and name a specific thing what I'm looking for in these movies... let's say it's this specific combination of humor and shooting/editing. Not just similar jokes and not just similar visual style but the combination, you know. Thanks!
n my 30s wishing I was heading down to the coast with my friends for a wild spring break. Looking for movies that capture that time. I’ve seen spring breakers of course, and some random movie from the 80s that I think was called spring break. Any other r rated comedy type movies about spring? summer break works as well!
I just watched The Perks of Being a Wallflower and it really struck something inside and so I'm really in the mood for other movies like it
Movies I find in a similar vein: Dead poets society, pursuit of happiness
I was reading that during the 80's and 90's there we're a bunch of really amaizing Anime movies that came out of Japan. So I ws just looking for some suggestions. nothing from Studio Ghibli (seen most of them). Also im happy to watch anything pre/psy 80's & 90's i've just heard that was like a golden era.
List I have soe far:
Watched these two movies over the past couple days and want to watch something similar but don’t know any movies like it. Any recommendations would be perfect
I want some movie suggestions (TV series suggestions are also welcome), pertaining to the "who-dun-it" theme.
please suggest movies/shows that will potentially keep me on the edge of my seat... thanks!
Hi movie fans!
What are some good movies that feel like a Twilight Zone episode. Movies where a character is stuck in a situation, in a bizarre scenario, or has a great twist.
And as always, underrated or lesser known films from the ‘90s/‘00 are always appreciated!!
Looking for movies where the emotional core is a couple — not just time travel as a plot device, but stories where the relationship IS the reason time is being messed with.
Things I've already seen:
- Your Name
- The Time Traveler's Wife
- About Time
- Coherence
- Primer
I'm specifically drawn to stories where:
- One or both of them know something the other doesn't
- They're secretly protecting each other across timelines
- The ending feels earned, not just a happy reset
Bonus points if it's a smaller/indie film most people haven't seen. Would love international films and short films too, not just Hollywood.
What are your picks?
Looking for movies about shot down pilots or movies focusing on combat search and rescue. I have seen and enjoyed:
Rescue Dawn
Behind Enemy Lines
Bat*21
I remember hearing somewhere that in the historical Wild West a third of all cowboys were Mexican and a quarter were Black. So I'm interested in westerns which actually focus on Mexican or Black cowboys.
I really resonate with characters like her (besides the kinky aspect, weirdos), she's a young woman living with her parents and struggling with her mental health, and it's nice to see this era of adulthood represented in a way where I don't get fomo from typical movies with college girls (Greek life, partying, clubbing, etc.) I'd appreciate any suggestions!
Anemoia is a nostalgic yearning for a time or place that you have never personally experienced.
Suggest me movies that give this feeling.
It’s been ages since I’ve watched a movie that doesn't make sense at all the entire time. Like a movie where you have to look up what the hell you just watched. I love movies like that but always feel like an idiot when talking to people about that because I’ve only seen a few that are more well known. Movies similar to what I’m getting at that I’ve enjoyed are: Enemy, Coherence, Triangle, Vivarium, I Saw the TV Glow might fit into that label??, Donnie Darko. I‘ve seen more but those are just what come to mind. (I’ve seen Infinity Pool and Mother but absolutely hated both of those)
Doesn't have to be a particular genre, preferably psychological drama/thriller but can be anything. Just weird and doesn’t make sense
necesito películas de mucha acción, que tengan el menor tiempo posible de diálogos, estilo John Wick, Purgue o Mercenarios. muchos disparos, mucho combate... etc.
Hey everyone!
Looking for recommendations on a movie to watch. Looking specifically for revenge movies.
If possible please non mainstream suggestions as I probably have watched most of them!
Thanks a bunch!
Title may suck but I’m searching for a specific vibe where someone gets a “calling” and the story shows the facing the initial realization of the calling and battles with changing their usual life lifestyle, and taking a risk for potential potentially something greater or beyond their normal routine. A movie where it shows them actually taking action on this change or “calling”
Thanks!
I define great movies to be 8+ or if you abhor grades, the top 20% of all movies you've ever seen.

I am looking for a movie where they hype up a villain or some evil entity so much. But it ends up being no match for the main character of the movie.
probably the closest thing I can think of is Dune 2. I didn't know the story as I didn't read the book. But they truly hyped up the villain in such a way. after the nukes were launched, it was game over. it came as a complete shock to me. But so so satisfying.
another example is Equilibrium.
so I am looking for a movie where the main character is never in fear. not even once.
I'm looking for movies about the staff of a movie studio (old Hollywood or new) that are trying to shoot a movie in the studio or on location, might have a scene in the editing room with the editor going through the black film negatives, doing premieres, and all the stuff that goes into making movies. is there any where making a film is the plot? (other than Tropic Thunder, I saw that one).
