I watched this for the first time last week (been meaning for so long) and it was absolutely delightful. The dialogue is so good and funny. They dont make good rom-coms anymore

You know I have all my "prestigious" or "artsy" favorites but recently I realized the movie that makes me the happiest.... Mrs. Doubtfire.

True. And a lot of the times multiple characters grow and it's actually the relationship between them that's the arc we see in the movie (Darjeeling Limited and Royal Tennebaums are the two that immediately come to mind).

You had the noodle dream! I love James Hong.

I liked it much more than I thought I would, however I think the movie sort couldnt find its identity. It wasnt really a comedy, but it wasnt really a drama either. It doesnt fully commit to either, so it kinda feels that it chickens out of being serious about the themes of adoption or just playing them for laughs, like you said, the whole Jacob thing was played for laughts, but the emotions and exhaustion and difficulty connecting with the kids felt real. The mother coming back felt serious. But then, comedy. So I wasnt sure if it was meant to be a serious take on the struggles of adoption or not. But like I said, overall I liked it, its better than most movies Whalberg has done recently.

The Godfather, parts 1 and 2, are a great introduction to classic cinema… They probably won’t be streaming for free, but you will almost certainly want to watch them again :)

Michelle Yeoh has nearly died so many times I feel like she deserves an honorable mention here

Goddamn magnificent.

You’re only strengthening my argument about the lack of a clear protagonist.

The previous comment says it’s obi wan, this only demonstrates my point about the lack of a clear protagonist.

It was a cute movie. I enjoyed it as well.

Goodfellas and Casino are already on my list, and I’ll add the others! Thank you, again.

I totally agree. I feel as though I know what to look for now in a good movie. I often find that I don’t remember whether I’ve seen movies or not because I lose so much of the plot due to not being able to pay attention all the way through. So when I remember a movie I know it’s good lol. I’m just trying to find good movies and appreciate them. I’ve found value in good storytelling and also the art of cinema so I’m quite keen to get into some good ones!

I do find that a lot of movies are just made for one to be made. I think I get somewhat frustrated because those seem to saturate the movie market for me. I get a little impatient because I feel like I’ve wasted my time if I’ve invested it in a movie that’s just not good.

Really hope they never remake jaws. Despite the dated effects, there's something about that film that can never be duplicated.
