Rate The Last Film You Watched

Howl's Moving Castle - the first Japanese animated film I have seen. Absolutely loved it. Lush animation, and a wonderful soundtrack.

Can anyone recommend any other Japanese films to try?

If you liked that you'll probably like a lot of the other Studio Ghibli stuff:

I like a bit of Japanese non animated stuff, there's obviously the classic Seven Samurai, and the more gory and a bit disturbing Battle Royale.

What were you hoping for?


As a note, I watched on Netflix the new & highly touted The Extraction the other night and while well made it was IMO just another silly "over the top" BS "shoot 'em up" a la John Wick movies. I am sure the video game types will choke their respective "gophers" while viewing it. ;)
 
I was hoping for a wartime action type film with plenty of battle scenes and living conditions, it turned out to be a cast of about 10 with extras thrown in, disappointing .

Just watched 'My Neighbour Totoro' - what a wonderful film. Bloody loved it!
 
have a good trip - adventures in psychedelics.

thoroughly enjoyed this 'documentary'/ film. actors and various celebrities talking about there experiences on psychedelic drugs. i used to take quite a lot of acid and magic mushrooms when i was younger so could totally relate to it :)
