Movies you dont like most people like

Good question. I worked in Mental Health Emergency Services for years. I would go out with cops to evaluate psychotic, homicidal, suicidal people. Occasionally the criminally insane. I dealt with a fair share of Travis Bickles in my career. In graduate school my first year internship was in a medium/ maximum security prison working mostly with sex offenders.

The last ten years I did evals in an inner city ER. So, long story short, watching Taxi Driver is like being at work. Not fun. But I recognize it is a very well done movie. And I am a big Scorsese fan. I really like most of his movies (The Departed and Shutter Island :thup:

Well god damn.

I thought I was throwing you a curve ball but it was straight over the plate and right outta the park.

Respect.

Everyone liked Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. I couldn’t have hated a movie more.

I loved that movie because I was 11-years-old living in Glendale in 1969. That movie was like stepping into a time machine. A museum quality reproduction of the Hollywood strip in that year right down the the ads on the bus stop benches and the songs on the radio.

Filled with more esoteric references than a bus load of virgins on the way to a "Star Trek" convention.

But, I saw the movie on a trip to Australia ... not a single person in the audience understood any of the references, didn't recognize the locals, and were forced to deal with a movie that is 161 minutes long with only 10 minutes of any actual action. I honestly don't understand how anyone who is not me could even watch it.

I really liked it as well. I thought the movie captured the era pretty spot on.

YES.

Godfather and French Connection?

More examples of Boomer revered cultural BS that doesn't hold up beyond five minutes of viewing.
 
I've only seen the Titanic film once and I only sat through it so that I could say that I saw it.

God bless you always!!!

P.S. The list of films that I have never seen before is endless.
