Saw Argo last night. It was good. But I put it on par with Silver Linings Playbook. And this isn't a snub for either film. I just thought both films gave the same vibe. Everything about both movies were very good. But neither stood out over the other.
In a way, the one thing that stood out was Silver Lining Playbooks social message.
Now I haven't seen Lincoln. So can't compare that one in. But I hear good things about it, especially Daniel Day Lewis. Which is a shame, because I thought Bradley Cooper was just amazing in his role. Reminded me of how well Jack Nicholson was in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and As Good as it Gets as far as mental illness movies goes. IMO, any other year, and Bradley Cooper runs away with it. That's how good i thought his performance was.
Now back to movies. I think Argo and Lincoln would be good comparisons, since they are both historical movies. I just don't know if Argo compares, since it was a good movie, but not a history changing movie. I didn't walk away with wow. I walked away with it was ok, and kept me interested.
And I still can't see the hangout topic. Only able to see posts that was last posted.
