well we were asked a question yesterday on an essay asking whether we like those movies that amuse and entertain or those films that make you think. Of course i chose the films that made me think, those that really opens your senses about life, human nature or any other aspect of life in this world. One of the newer films that have that quality is slumdog millionaire..from the old ones, i think forrest gump. well that's just my example,
How about you, what is the movie that made you think or learn a lot? share here and i will take it as a recommendation:-)

I think it would have to be Titanic. I had such a hard time with that movie. I kept trying to put myself in the places of those who were in the boat. I felt so bad for months!confused

yeah, along with the tragedy that was brought upon by injustice in that ship, i was also so awed by the romance bet jack and rose. i love that movie too, thanks jammyt

First of all the movie which made me think alot even when i felt that it was crappy was "FIGHT CLUB".
It was something different..
completely different from the movies i have ever watched...
and the other movie was
"pulp fiction"..
but fight club was something different..
it was for dual personality of the hero...
it made me think alotttt..


myLot reputation of 89/100. kukaisiton (375)   ranked 320 out of 11,354 in watching movies  9 months ago

yeah, i like fight club, i never wouldve thought brad pitt was just an imaginary personality of the guy there. it was so fantastically made. i also cant get how he managed to kill brad's personality there, can you please explain it if you got time? about pulp fiction, i'll try to find a vid to watch it, thanks for your response abhi

Good question. I'm gonna start by saying that i'm a movie fan, regardless the genre (i favour horrors, though). You're right, Slumdog Millionaire was a movie that made me think also, about money, love, values of life, other people in this world, their dramas or moment of happiness and much more.

One of the last movies that i've seen recently, and made me think, was a thriller/ drama - Shuttle, a gray movie that let me with a bitter taste for a few hours. I won't spoil the subject but is about a real problem in our days, aside fictional aspect and some bloody effects.

Other titles that made me think were Eden Lake (thriller/ horror), The Notebook (drama/ romance), Sweet November (drama/ romance), If Only (drama/ romance) and few more others...


myLot reputation of 89/100. kukaisiton (375)   ranked 320 out of 11,354 in watching movies  9 months ago

bec. of your response, im interested to watch shuttle. is it a modern film? i'll try to find a copy of it. i have also watched the notebook and sweet november, you're right those are some of the films that make you think about how well you should love your loved one. thanks september 1st

The Curious Life of Benjamin Button. I saw this movie not long ago and I have been raving about it ever since. I have commented on how well the movie was made, the acting etc... But what this film has left me with I could not stop thinking about for days. I don't know whether you've seen it; there are lessons in there about love, tenacity and pride. The biggest message is that love transcends everything in the exterior and that it is the essence of a person that is truly lovable. happy


myLot reputation of 89/100. kukaisiton (375)   ranked 320 out of 11,354 in watching movies  9 months ago

oh yeah me too, i loved benjamin button too, especially the part where they met "halfway" when they rented the apartment with no furniture but just the mattress, it was so cute and romantic. i like the life and love lessons there just like you did. thanks paula

Kuch KUch Hota Hai, the bollywood movie, booming in 1998. A very entertaining film. I watch this movie 8 times, alone, sometimes with friends, sometimes with my family. Original Soundtrack of this movie, still good to hear till now. When the music is played, it's impossible to not shake your body or just singing the lyric of the song. Gone with the wind, movie version played by Vivien Leight, this movie inspire me a lot. Make me think, everything that i have today, might be lost. Property, friends, family. Nothing immortal. But no need to fear, face it with bravely, even you just a woman. Trilogy Lord of The Ring, don't need say anything just ' WOW ', 2 thumbs up ..


myLot reputation of 89/100. kukaisiton (375)   ranked 320 out of 11,354 in watching movies  9 months ago

hey do you know where i can watch the bollywood films cause im not sure where i can find em. anyway, i also love love gone with the wind, it's fantastic, i love vivien leigh in it and the storyline is great and an epic! ..
And im not very sure about lotr, let me watch that sometime, but i heard that it's great. thanks isakuiki

That's a really good question. I would have to say "Made Of Honor". If Patrick Dempsey's character can fall in love with his best friend (which is a girl in the movie). It can work out for me as well; since I'm in love with my best male friend=).


myLot reputation of 89/100. kukaisiton (375)   ranked 320 out of 11,354 in watching movies  9 months ago

oh that film is cute, i loved the wedding they had at the ending back in new york. haha, and you like it bec. youre also in love with your bestfriend. best of luck with that

One such movie that made me think again and again was "Million Dollar Baby"

I was verymuch captivated by that movie. Though it has a very very sad ending, It was so encouraging and would definitely be a leason for anyone who are aimless.

The movie was lingering in my mind for many months and it had a greater impact.
I adore that movie.


myLot reputation of 89/100. kukaisiton (375)   ranked 320 out of 11,354 in watching movies  9 months ago

o, that's one movie i should watch, im definitely going to find a copy of that even if you said it has a sad ending. it's an oscar winner right? thanks for your response pnkyposh

Bagdad Cafe made me think, being more of an "art" film here in the states any way, it gave me a lot to think about - as well as being a very enjoyable flick.


myLot reputation of 89/100. kukaisiton (375)   ranked 320 out of 11,354 in watching movies  9 months ago

do you know where i can find a copy of that? i'll try to watch this, it's a foreign film right?


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (15151)   ranked 270 out of 11,354 in watching movies  9 months ago

It is a German film, but since it was filmed in the U.S. it is mostly in English
