I'm a bit of a cinephile, movies are probably my second love after brewing, I have a "watchlist" which is almost as long as my "brewlist" and I try to watch a couple of films off it each week.
I'm always open for suggestions and love hearing what people have watched recently, what their opinion was and why.
With such a melange of people on the forum I'm sure I'm not the only one, so what are you watching, or have you watched recently?
I'll go first, last night I watched Hero, a Jet Li movie from 2002. I'm not the biggest fan of martial arts films but wow, this is spectacular. This isn't just a movie, it's a work of art. The cinematography is stunning, the use of colour beautiful done, and the fight choreography mind-blowing (plus who doesn't want to see Jet Li fight Donnie Yen?)
If you're a martial arts fan then this is a must see, even though it's a little more subtle than the likes of Jackie Chan (think more Crouching Tiger than Rumble in the Bronx), but even if you're not a fan of the genre this is still worth a watch just for the spectacle, it's one of the most beautifully shot movies I've seen for a while.
