I really wanted to love this quasi prequel to Carpenter's masterpiece. I enjoyed it yo a degree but the mediocre cgi gore can't hold a candle to Carpenter's practical effects

Arguably the best comic book based film of all time, Christopher Nolan created a masterpiece. If Bale's Batman voice wasn't somewhat ridiculous I would petition for a rank of 11.

REM have created an absolute masterpiece here. (2 more)

Musically superb with a melancholy feel.

Folky undertones about sad stuff, but this does not make it a drag, far from it it.

It’s visually overwhelming in the best way possible. My passion for arranging flowers began when I discovered this photographic masterpiece. Page after page reaffirms the beauty and wonder of nature.

"As the son of a champion wrestler, I was naturally drawn to the grappling hero of Achebe’s masterpiece—Okonkwo, one of the most complex and charismatic protagonists in modern literature."
