Silicon Valley
Silicon Valley is a smart funny story about entrepreneurs. Almost every episode has a few great moments and the every season has some awesome scenes that you’ll keep re-watching on YouTube. Must Watch for every MBA, Engineers and to-be entrepreneurs.
The Truman Show
The Truman Show is not your average Jim Carrey movie, it is the best. This masterpiece is much deeper than what it seems at first, do watch the numerous video essays on it. You’ll be tempted to re-watch after that.
First Man
First Man is one of the most boring movies of all time. Even the most awesome scenes of flying rockets and experimental planes seem so disorienting and boring, having no music doesn’t help much – That were my initial thoughts while watching the 1st part of First Man. Luckily I continued to watch the second half of the movie a couple of days later. Still slow .. slow .. family .. slow.. and then spoiler alert comes the moon landing, and the orchestra starts playing the best haunting yet calming music, and the same disorienting shorts of flying the spacecraft become the most exhilarating moment in the history of cinema (after Interstellar docking scene – of course) I might re watch this movie again once, some day, but I have watched the moon landing scene with full volume almost every night for a month, and occasionally now. Its scenes and music like these make even a bad movie worth watching.
The Greatest Game Ever Played
I’m sure most of us don’t like Golf, but “The Greatest Game Ever Played” is much more than just golf. The direction and acting is quite spectacular. Highly recommended to watch as it is quite rewatchable. As Shia LaBeouf once said “Just do it!”
The Raid
The Raid is not your regular action movie. I have watched quite a few Japanese, Chinese, Korean action movies, they are known for their grace and elegance. But not this World renowned Indonesian movie. It shows you brutal and ugly hand to hand combat scenes one after another, that you yourself like the protagonist are out of breath. Would not recommend to people with weak stomach, but to all else do watch the movie once. Not very rewatchable unless you are really into hand to hand combat scenes. But it is a movie you will get recommended a lot, so lets get it done with.
Fight Club
Well, Fight Club is a classic all time best movie. If you are among the lucky few who hasn’t already seen this movie, just watch it. Don’t google it or talk to anybody about it, nothing. Just watch it. I’m sure many of us watch to re-watch it like its the first time again.
Transcendence
Transcendence is a good movie. It has a great concept, life after death by transferring your consciousness into an AI and then the AI does much more. Such a brilliant concept, but the movie felt a bit straightforward. Visuals, music, cast everything is great, just the story could have been much better. Nevertheless, Transcendence is a good watch. I have watched it a couple of times now, might watch it again after a few months.
Liar Liar
1997 ‧ Comedy/Fantasy ‧ 1h 27m Well sometimes you just need to kickback and enjoy a Jim Carrey classic. Liar Liar is a 90s classic movie that can be re-watched quite often. Jim Carrey proceeding to act like Jim Carrey best sums up the movie.
