kino

has no one seen this movie?

>>213577495
When I was younger I tried but got bored, gave it another watch and it's all true about it

>randomly decides to look at horses so he can be saved by the screenwriter in your path
that part was kinda retarded desu but it owned seeing swinton eat shit at the end, they'd never make a movie showing a women be an incompetent retard like this today

>>213577612
Yeah the scene where he dresses her down was kino. He basically admits that she could have just paid him off but because she went full retard he is going to take her down.

>>213577612
>>213577621
swinton was great in this movie, she won the oscar for it.

>>213577621
>All I wanted was zero dollars, for the rest of my life

>>213577621
>He basically admits that she could have just paid him off
No, that was part of his speech to get her to agree to the bribe.
>I'm not the guy you kill, I'm the guy you buy are you so fucking blind you don't even see what I am?
In one stroke he gets her to admit to the car-bombing and the assassination of Arthur.

yanks, was his accent convincing?

>>213577247 (OP)
>main character is on camera while credits roll
kino trope

>>213577697
He was the best part of the entire film.

The ending was immensely satisfying. Felt like the ending to The Verdict with Paul Newman just letting the phone ring. The bliss of victory

>>213577247 (OP)
I didn’t get it

>>213577247 (OP)
10/10 flick for sure

>>213577247 (OP)
You watch this and you immediately understand why Better Call Saul was shit. All characters are much more interesting and real.

>>213577697
Better than the NY gangster one in Batman

>>213578199
What's not to get

>>213577697
Very. Reminded of boomers I worked with. His Ben Franklin was hilariously on point too

>>213577247 (OP)
Even kino-y-er than that

>>213578165
>The Verdict
I watched both of those movies recently almost back to back.

>>213577612
>>randomly decides to look at horses so he can be saved
one of the best parts of the movie actually. you can't even depict a brush with divine providence anymore without some sperg going BUT THAT'S NOT REALISTIC. it is realistic. happens to people all the time.

>>213577697
Was his character supposed to come across as a creeper? I know he's a good guy but the girl he was watching should've been more creeped out by him. Everyone should've. He didn't come across as a sweet old man, more like a weird diddler rapist. Why was he so crazy?

one of my favorite movies. sucks you in immediately with that opening monologue

>>213577612
I'll go one further than >>213579591 here. It's not only realistic, it's inevitable. The fact that you call it even kinda retarded just means you haven't had it happen to you yet. Doesn't have to be you driving down the backroads, doesn't have to be horses. Just you taking the time to be present.
>>213579625
Arthur's relationship with Anna Kasiersan is implied, and yeah it doesn't make a lot of sense. After his psychotic break and harassing Anna in the deposition room, she had no believable reason to take his calls. The only way it works, which wasn't shown to us, is if he said something in his deranged state to the effect of
>I believe you
or something in her support, as he was defending unorth against her claims that their product killed people. And even then, entertaining a phone call from the 50+ year old guy who stripped naked and ran through a parking lot just doesn't skin unless she has an explicit thing for older men.

>>213579726
I really don't want to think about a cute girl getting worked over by a large old man

>>213579625
i'm afraid you got conditioned by feminism to see male sexuality as pathological. men never stop being attracted to young girls, when you're 70 you will still look at 18yos and it will choke you how pretty they are and how much you want them but can't have them. in this case he basically fell in love with a young girl, knew he had no chance with her as a man, and redirected those energies into championing her cause instead. it's an act of impossible unrequited love and i find it incredibly relatable.

>>213579755
I don't think they got that far. Her conversation with Michael - "I got on a plane," while looking sheepish - I always got from that that was the first time they would have met in person since the deposition.

>>213579591
>>213579726
>it's not a deus ex machine, it's divine intervention
this place gets dumber every day I swear to god

>>213579770
Was it really romantic or even sexual? I don't think that was necessarily the case. He might've just wanted to help her because he saw platonic innocence in her.

I really wanted to bang Tilda in this

>>213579786
I didn't say it was divine intervention, and I didn't say it wasn't a deus ex machina. I said the fact that you, or that anon, calls it kinda retarded means it hasn't happened to you or him yet. Being perfectly present.

>>213579786
the point is that depicting divine intervention on film is not a problem, a plot hole or a "cinemasin." stop getting your opinions from youtubers and reddit.

>>213577495
i have but forgot what it's about

The assassin guys were so heartless wtf. What makes a man like that.

>>213577697
He just copied Peter Finch from Network

>>213579799
i interpret it as him sublimating his impossible sexual desire into this quest for justice. it's a feature of male love madness. "she won't even look at me but i will build bridges and skyscapers in her name and maybe one day she will realize it was all for her." you won't get it if you haven't been there.

I took my wife to see this on our first date.

>>213579466
Based. What else have you been watching? I could do with some recommendations

>>213579438
true

>>213580096
Witness for the Prosecution

>>213579625
>Was his character supposed to come across as a creeper?
no, he's supposed to come off as a manic bipolar with no control over his emotions and has gotten himself into a crazy situation. We don't see their relationship develop so for all we know she could be a gold digger or small town girl with little experience with mentally unstable people who sees him as a successful, intelligent and mature man who has finally found true love and is unable to control himself because of it. Just about everyone in the story is in some deep shit situation that they have no control over and ends up ruining their lives in some way. Clayton himself has issues with gambling, his restaurant failing and obviously the general plot of the film. Arthur has the big case, the girl and his chronic addiction to bread.

>>213577495
HBO kino, the manic episode with the lawyer was a great depiction of a breakout. Then his displays of legal knowledge shows why he was allowed to have access to so much privileged information. This movie, shooter with mark Wahlberg and the Robin Williams becomes the president
are the trifecta for making it look like a suicide.

>>213579848
Real chicken or egg situation. It is why the company can pollute and poison without any regard to human life. Monsanto, black rock, vanguard, Halliburton, palintir, all evil companies that value profit over life.

>>213580079
Too cerebral for a first date. Wtf were you thinking?

finally a grown up movie thread
what are the best political thriller kinos?

>>213580965
tbf if she cant handle you at your michael clayton she doesnt deserve you at your love island

>>213577697
This is how they killed Epstein and Trevor moore btw

>>213580999
Network is a must and 3 days of the condor really holds up. It also makes that one Seinfeld episode that references it hilarious.

bump

>>213580999
I was expecting the ides of march to be boring and it was kino. One anon already told me it's trash

>>213580999
Atlas shrugged is basically a business/political thriller but I am unsure of the quality of the film.

>>213579848
Regardless of the woman fucking up surely they would have gotten caught.

Rich man randomly dies, open pill bottles, but nothing in his stomach? Closer inspection shows an injection between his toes but the chemicals don’t match the prescribed medications?

>>213580096
Glengarry Glen Ross

>>213583537
I heard the leads are pretty weak in that one.

>>213583422
If you arent famous they arent looking at shit. They said a woman had died from natural causes and she had over a dozen stab marks. You are not getting the best in government.

>>213577247 (OP)
More like Michael GAYton!

I think about this scene every time the movie is brought up
>Police like hit and runs, they work them hard and clear them fast
I wonder if there's any truth to that, sounds like bullshit
