Chris Stringer recommended Brazil (1985) in Movies (curated)

 
Brazil (1985)
Brazil (1985)
1985 | Comedy, Drama, Sci-Fi

""Quirky, with humour and horror juxtaposed, and full of little details about the alternative world that Terry Gilliam creates. And Michael Palin outstanding as a nice man turned into a torturer by the system.""

I adore this series so much! The characters, the plot, the romance, the connections between people, the occasional bit of humour. Its bloody amazing and I cannot wait for book 4!

Great
Great second movie with new charismatic villians. Acting, story, costumes and music are still at the top. Less humour, but more action this time. Positive Disney movie for all ages.

Grin Inducing fun.
Loosely based on the 80's arcade game, Rampage is a fantasy action film that whips along at a cracking pace.

There are loads of great action sequences and the humour is superb, throughout.
You'll need to switch your brain off, though, as it's very far fetched.

My son and I watched this together (he's 12) and both left the cinema with massive grins.

Excellent fun.

Criminally Madcap
Two British teachers discuss true crimes and the insanity that surrounds them, with a twist of wry British humour, sarcastic barbs sharp enough to have sunk the Titanic, and a sprinkling of anecdotes that will leave you thinking that teachers must be some of the bravest people on Earth.
Not as slick as most of the American podcasts you will come across, but charming enough that you really don't mind.

There's plenty of humour in this film with a great story.
Kids will love it, olds will love it.
This is just brilliant, Pixar's first!
