so this would obviously exclude classics like The Godfather and Jaws. Interested in your opinions and in the end will help drive what I load onto the iPad for the next few months of air travel.
Props to whoever said Blue Ruin. MINOR SPOILER: there’s a scene where the main character steals a handgun, but can’t get the trigger lock off. So he gives up and moves on. Cue next scene. It was a great, real life moment which the film is full of. While not nearly as good, if you liked this film, check out Cold in July with our boy Dexter.
That's what I loved about it, it didn't feel like a "movie revenge tale", it felt like a story about what would happen if a regular, average guy set out to avenge a murder. Excellent movie.
That excellently explains how I feel, too. Perfect analogy regarding Lars.

- Moon
- Interstellar
- Sicario
- Grand Budapest Hotel
- Chef
- Burnt (with Bradley Cooper)
All excellent films. My favorites are probably Moon and Sicario.
