TPB AFK: The Pirate Bay Away from Keyboard (2013) - IMDb

An excellent real-life documentary film on 'The Pirate Bay Trial'.

This can be LEGALLY downloaded from the TPB site.

Or just watch it by streaming: TPB AFK

Look at the director's message in the attachment; the way the director himself is promoting the movie :clapping:

Anybody here watched this movie ?

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443453/?ref_=sr_1

One of the daring and scandalous movie I've seen. It lambasted America's hollow hypocrisy in all nakedness. The film is hilarious, it carries a message, and I must admit, is made by a guy who has a talent and a brain between the ears. This is one of the far better comedies I've seen in recent years.

@ Rupam watch Four Lions ... and then tell you will forget Borat.

Company of Heros [2013]

Company of Heroes (Video 2013) - IMDb


A good War/Drama movie about Hitler's secret nuclear bomb development during WW II. Cinematography is very good. The war sequences are shot well. Good performance by the supporting actors.




Cheers.

^^ This looks like, a B Grade war movie ............ a quote from the comments ..

They use several clichs; unlimited ammo, inaccurate spraying of bullets when they shoot they're machine pistols, guys falling BEFORE the shot hits, and they fall several meters when they get shot, the Russians and the Germans speaks perfectly good English.

...

doesnt look worth ....

You seem to blindly go by written reviews, I would suggest for a change watch the movie and then share your comments, may be it would be different / you would like it.


Cheers.

mmmmm correct to an extent, but my experience with IMDB is, the reviews and ratings atleast provide a basic status of the movie. And there is less probability that a movie will deviate too much from it, given the numbers of users who have voted for/against it, so though the ratings and review should not be taken too seriously it still provides a decent yard to measure a picture which you have no idea about its quality and worthiness.

The White Ribbon

The White Ribbon (2009) - IMDb

The history of children and teenagers of a choir run by the village schoolteacher and their families: the baron, the steward of the estate, the pastor, the doctor, the midwife, the peasants .. . Strange accidents occur and gradually take on the character of a punishment ritual. Who is behind all this?

A Shivering tale..... a must watch..

A Very Long Engagement

A Very Long Engagement (2004) - IMDb

In 1919, Mathilde, a young disabled tries to find her fiance Manech disappeared during the war that has just ended. Accused of self-mutilation, Manech was abandoned, along with four other soldiers, in the no man's land. All witnesses agree: the five condemned to death have been killed in the next day. But Mathilde persistently convinced that Manech is still alive and explore all available tracks. She hires a private detective named Pire (means Worse in French!), and asks to find all the veterans who crossed the border and disappeared. One of them, Clestin Poux, may have information on Manech ....... very intriguing


The cinematography is superb, with long wide shots, its a treat for HD TV owners. Nominated for the 2005 Academy Award for Best Cinematography Watch this movie on Bluray. You can even buy the bluray. I love the cinematography, the lush fields, or bombarded lands.

Hanna [2011]

Hanna (2011) - IMDb


A very good Action/Thriller movie . Story is good, and some good martial art's performance by Saoirse Ronan and very good performance by Cate Blanchett in a negative role. Good watch.




Red Dawn [2012]

Red Dawn (2012) - IMDb


A time pass Action movie. Story was a bit funny/silly IMO, but time pass action scenes. Not a must see, watch this movie if you have nothing to do.




The Burma Conspiracy [2011]

Largo Winch II (2011) - IMDb


A good Action/Adventure movie. Story is fair enough, good cinematography. Sharon Stone struggles to perform well, but in vain. Again not a must see movie, watch it for time pass.





Cheers.
