I wish she would react to 13 Hours - a great movie
I will be happy with any of these. Happiest with Sicario. I'm working on Das Boot so I hope it gets a reaction.
ive never heard of any of these...
Is this a joke?….
Really sucks Oldboy (2003) isn't winning.
Sicarrio and Children of Men have both become super topical in the past month. I’m going to go with Children of Men as the more hopeful.
If you do ever watch Oldboy, go with the original Korean version and just KNOW that you are NOT ever going to be ready for this movie.
Is the theme here assertive directors or powerhouse leads? Yes.
Maybe the theme is just darker films?
For Oldboy there are two versions, if you put it in a poll again, you might want to mention which version you are planning on watching. I have never seen the original just the Spike Lee remake with Josh Brolin and Elisabeth Olsen, Samuel L Jackson, Sharlto Copley. 2003 South Korean Movie or 2013 American Remake?
99% of the time, Americans are always talking about the American version when any remade film or show is being discussed. For example, Americans practically act like the UK Office doesn't exist even though its a better show
Nat, holy hell, this is a 10/10 poll and every losing candidate needs to be on future polls. I voted for CoM here, just because I utterly adore it, but picking it over Sicario was like having to decide which finger I prefer getting cut off.
Wow that's a very graphic metaphor. Sounds like a movie plot lol
If you watch 'Sicario' and 'Children of Men' back-to-back, you may need a couple of days off to shake off the hopelessness. If you add 'Oldboy', you may need at least one session of therapy.
Oh my goodness, so many good choices. Had to go with Zero Dark Thirty, doesn’t look like it’s going to win though :( At least it made it on the poll.
Sicario??? Seriously??? The forgettable action film from 2015??? First time I've genuinely been dejected at the results... Children of Men is EASILY one of the greatest films of the 21st century. :^(
Sicario is a great film
Ngl was hoping The Iron Claw would be in polls this week.
This is one of those movies I wish Nat would just go ahead and watch regardless of polls. Clearly she’s interested in it and I don’t think anybody would be upset if she picked more movies for herself.
These are all damn good movies (assuming Oldboy is the original, and not the remake--great cast, but dull effort); but, Children of Men is one of the greatest movies I've ever seen. So, Children of Men all the way.
Children of Men needs some of these voters that have seen none of them! It's a good list, but i hate anyone to miss CofM!
After sicario wins, do hell or high water next because its fucking amazing
Please God yes, then finish out with Wind River.
Always surprised when people like sicario, thought it was rather boring
Amen
Fuck yeah sicario is incredible!
“Go ahead and finish your meal.”
Come on Children of Men! Please that movie is a masterpiece
I think Children of Men is one of the best movies ever made. Gorgeous, terrifying, dystopian and exciting. I cannot praise it enough. I really like Das Boot and Sicario too. All very gloomy films.
OLDBOY!!!! Cant believe its on a poll!
Yaaaasss Sicario! Das Boot is a great one as well.
first time when i'm really hurt and baffled that children of men is losing to anything. but both children and oldboy losing to sicario, bruh.. sicario is just excelling on a technical level & acting wise, there's nothing else special about it, ridiculous
I voted Sicario, because well … Denis Villeneuve 🤷♂️
Wow too many great choices aaah.
Very good list. Hard to pick a favourite. Children of Men has a cinematography style that still holds up today. Korean Oldboy is a masterpiece. It put Korean cinema on the map for me, and is actually part of thematical vengeance trilogy. Sicario is a masterclass of Denis Villeneuve on how to build up tension, also amazing cinematography. And lastly Das Boot, which is just a classic if you want to watch WW2 movies
HARD POLE
...that's what she said (I assume you meant “poll”)
Korean version of Oldboy is a masterpiece
Great options, voting for Children of Men I think.
hope you're talking about the Korean oldboy not the Americanized one
Yeah, we want Nat to acquire some real trauma.
People not voting for Das Boot have never SEEN Das Boot.
Yeah we have
Children of Men is one of those movies that I find baffling how it's so highly rated. Terrible writing/plot holes towards the end especially. Sicario is amazing and I hope it gets Natalie to watch Wind River and/or Hell or High Water.
Yes, hopefully this opens up a Taylor Sheridan wormhole for Nat, it’s all so good!
Children of Men lives rent free in my mind. I know Natalie would love this movie for it's cinematography alone.
Damn, great list. It was between Children of Men and Oldboy for me and ended up voting Children of Men. If you ever decide to watch Oldboy, it has to be the Korean version, which is considered a masterpiece. The American remake is terrible.
Don't really have a big interest in any of these options so just gonna skip this poll :)
hmmm... which Oldboy?
I actually haven't seen a single one of these 😅
Sicario is very good! Very good cast in that movie
Happy Wednesday Nat. Hope you're having fun on your trip. Have only seen Sicario and Zero Dark Thirty from this list but will happy to watch any of them with you. I'll put my cross in the Children of Men box. Have a great day Nat 💛
Great movies all around. I voted for Sicario.
Dang I might actually pick Children of Men instead of Sicario but both of those films would be great. Heck they're all good, though I've never seen Das Boot but heard it's fantastic so you really can't go wrong with this list. Also, for Oldboy, we need to make sure we’re talking about the original Korean film and not the atrocious Spike Lee version...
If Children of Men doesn’t win I will call each and every one of your mothers and tell them you sent me unsolicited nudes
It's a great movie, but I voted for Sicario😁😁.
The Prestige!
I don't know if it's Nolan's best movie, but it's easily my favorite. Such a great cast
I hope SIcario wins. It's a real fun time, very lighthearted, perfect feel-good movie!
On no. Oldboy. One, it has to be the Korean version. And second, I don't know if I can watch that movie again. Haha
First time I get to vote and I don’t know any of these movies 😂
All incredible movies. This is hopefully more of a “what order to watch all of them“. 🙂
Feel good movie poll.
Given the options, Sicario is the best way to go.
Idk know these so what should i choose for those who do know?
I picked children of men because it's a gorgeous, moving, introspective story about a world in crisis. If that appeals to you, it's a great way to go. If not, this would be a bad pick.
Not going to lie Nat, I don’t know any of these movies 😭
First time voting first. Seeing my pick at 100% was a strange sight to see 😆
