Great film always on cable


Which is the true test of longevity, do not understand the denial of American audiences to recognize this film when it's clearly one of the best films ever made. A proper film, no sloppy Aronofsky bullshit camera movement, a proper story, very rich in themes. Also, by chance my tv was acting up and I saw half of it in black and white and I have to say, it looked amazing.

Wow, not only are you constantly shitting on great directors and films, you also think that this movie is one of the greatest movies of all time?

Brought to you by the hack Joel Schumacher it has a horrible Nicolas Cage in it stumbling through a bland film filled with plotholes (like a hospital giving a patients home address, because someone called them claiming to be the police). It is Schumachers best, but that's because most of his other films are horrible and he is a crappy director. God forbid he did something interesting like Aronovsky. Cakey, you truly have great insight.

You are so sad. That is not a plothole, and Aronovsky is a true charlatan.

I'd suggest you look up the definition of charlatan, Cakey. Spoilers, it's not "Great director I don't like because his films don't look like a 50s movie".
