RRR is the greatest action movie of this generation

[–] state_electrician@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 10 months ago (2 children)

RRR was the first Indian movie I watched and I loved it. I watched other Indian movies after that, but they pale in comparison.

Monkey Man, directed by Dev Patel, was solid. More of a John Wick movie than RRR's Rambo: The Musical. But the acting, the cinematography, and the screenplay were all on par with a top tier American film.

That’s because it is one though.

Couldn't remember why I didn't watch it, it's the musical part. Not to big into musicals.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

That's more tongue-in-cheek. They've got a scene at a party that involves the protagonists engaging in a dance-off with one of the villains, which is one of the best parts of the movie. But it's maybe ten minutes in a three hour long epic. Not really a musical anymore than, say, Titanic.

Dev Patel is British

[–] deus@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

3 Idiots (2009). It's not an action movie like RRR but I find it just as entertaining.

I randomly watched that movie with 0 expectations and holy shit. It was cinema 11/10.

The bheem song in the whipping scene was great

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

No kidding! That movie just delivers for 3 hours straight and has one of the best twists I didn’t see coming at all. One of my favorites parts of the massive crowd fight with the cop.

For a little while now, yes.

IMDb, historically known as the Internet Movie Database,[2] is an online database of information related to films, ... IMDb began as a fan-operated movie database on the Usenet group "rec.arts.movies" in 1990, and moved to the Web in 1993. Since 1998, it has been owned and operated by IMDb.com, Inc., ** a subsidiary of Amazon. **

Sonofabitch, I had no idea. Thanks

[–] perishthethought@piefed.social 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah, and this thread made me look up who runs themoviedb.com. It's the parent company of TiVo so no small business either. But for now, I see it as somewhat less shitty than IMDB still.

[–] Theatomictruth@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 10 months ago

Thanks, didn’t know that was Amazon

[–] capcool@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Please tell me you aren’t Indian.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm not, but I've got a couple friends who clue me in to the good stuff.

[–] capcool@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Have they suggested Bahubali?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Damn, it looks familiar. I can't recall, tbh. But I'll definitely add it to my queue.

[–] Morgoth_Bauglir@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

It has the same director as RRR. Between them, Bahubali is my personal favorite
