Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) Excellent film about a mother who personally challenges the local authorities to solve her daughter's murder when they fail to catch the culprit.

Relatively unknown, fantastic sci-fi movies can sometimes be overshadowed by blockbusters. Unfortunately, Hollywood is a massive abyss in this regard. Here’s a great list. Some of these films could be considered cult classics, while others are virtually unknown. This is the part two of the list.

*Freddy Got Fingered* Review

Genre: Comedy

Runtime: 87 minutes

Release Year: 2001

Director: Tom Green

*Freddy Got Fingered* is one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen.

The film is only 87 minutes long, but if I had a nickel for every time I laughed during it, I’d be a millionaire.

The movie tells the story of Gordy Brody, a failed cartoonist; after pitching an idea to an animation studio, he moves back in with his parents and drives them crazy. When they demand he leave, he starts spreading rumors that his father is abusing his little brother, Freddy—and chaos ensues.

The film was directed by Tom Green, who also plays the protagonist.

There are so many laugh-out-loud moments in this movie—

like the scene where Gordy cuts open a dead deer, wears its hide, and scares a driver, or the bit where he does that thing with the sausages,

or the whole sequence at the end where his dad wakes up to discover Gordy has taken him to Pakistan, and they reconcile after Gordy reveals he’s finally become a successful animator and sold his work for a million dollars,

or the part where Gordy runs into a woman about to give birth at the hospital and delivers the baby himself...

And I could go on like this forever. At first glance, *Freddy Got Fingered* might look like a stupid movie, but it has a beautiful, inspiring message about following your dreams even when no one believes in you.

I relate to Gordy because, at a young age, I loved animation but felt bad about it because my dad used to put me down for it—until I realized there’s nothing wrong with loving animation.

Do I have any issues with the movie? Well, Freddy—Gordy’s brother—doesn't do much; for most of the film, he’s in a hospital with children, and it would have been nice if he’d done more.

Also, at the end of the movie, Gordy and his dad get kidnapped in Pakistan; they return after some time in captivity, but this happens right at the very end, and I would have preferred if the film had devoted more time to that plotline.

But aside from those two things, it’s an excellent movie.

And like I said, I was dying of laughter throughout the whole thing.

I really love how Gordy acts like a cartoon character;

it brings so much life to every scene he’s in,

and I loved the movie's message.

The funniest thing about this movie is that it has a 3.0-star rating on Letterboxd, yet a large portion of the reviews there are positive.

I can see myself watching this movie many times—

whenever I’m feeling down. In fact, I’d even make myself a T-shirt featuring this movie. I love it that much.

An excellent movie; I give it 4 and a half stars.

I have always been a fan of Christopher Nolan's movies, the first movie I watched was The Prestige and then I went to see Inception at the cinema with my wife.

Some friends didn't know what of Inception but I thought it was brilliant and a genius piece of storytelling and direction. The opening where Leonardo Dicaprio fell backwards into a bath full of water in slow motion and the part where the city folded over onto itself where mesmerising and then we were told that there were different layers of dreams. Just brilliant, interesting and thought provoking.

I then decided to watch The Batman trilogy movies and my personal favourite has to be The Dark Knight from 2008, it's the first time I have ever watched the villain (The Joker portrayed brilliantly by Heath Ledger) actually steal the scenes from Batman (Christian Bale) in this movie. Heath's The Joker is still the best by far.

Other movies I've watched are Interstellar and Dunkirk which are also fantastic and incredible pieces of filmmaking but I just haven't got around to watching The Following, Memento, Insomnia, TENET, Oppenheimer and The Odyssey and I've got to make time to watch these movies.

Is anyone else a fan of Christopher Nolan's movies and would it be best to watch everything from The Following upto The Odyssey in year order just to see how much of a brilliant filmmaker he has become?

Alejandro is a genius director & mastered his own style of movie with his creative “paradoxes”. This was MY Birdman. This movie was captivating, riveting & made me cry from laughter. The acting is elite. Tom cruise, John Goodman, Riz, supporting cast, the visuals & hell the set design deserve oscars. This was an elite broadway performance on screen, wink wink

& the “deep” aspect of the movie, amazing & thought provoking. The last scene was a chefs kiss.

The first two images are from the same film -I just couldn't pick one.

3, 4 and 5 are all from different films!

Guys, I’m posting this with my head in my hands. I’m genuinely so embarrassed.

Vietnam’s film industry has officially decided to jump head-first into the AI hype train, and they are bringing our very first AI-generated animated feature film, titled "The Naked World" (Thế Giới Trần Trụi), to actual movie theaters in 2027.

Directed by Nguyen Quang Dung and backed by major studios, it follows a glitchy rooster trying to survive a weird AI-generated dystopia. But honestly? Looking at those uncanny valley aesthetics and weird textures... I feel like apologizing to every traditional animator on earth.

I am bracing myself for impact. You can watch the crime against cinema/animation here if you want to suffer with me: 🔗https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGItZKkGSEw

Quick specs of the disaster:

• Director: Nguyen Quang Dung
• Studios: Galaxy Studio, HKFilm
• Expected Release: 2027 (Pray for us)

Please tell me other countries are doing this too so Vietnam doesn't have to bear the shame alone. Have any of your local film industries started making full-length AI movies yet, or are we the only ones diving off this cliff? 😭

Movie name: edge of tomorrow (2014)

Amongst a plethora of zombie flicks, what is that one movie that stands out you?

For me it’s 28 Days Later. It’s a perfect movie to me.

Cillian Murphy is fantastic, and the score by John Murphy is perfection. The humans being more monstrous in the end than the zombies themselves was horrifying.

What’s your favorite zombie movie?

I’ve never seen I Saw the Devil.

I’ve seen so many people call it a masterpiece of Korean cinema, so I’m curious: is it really worth watching?

For those who’ve seen it, what makes it stand out so much? And would you recommend it to someone watching it for the first time in 2026?

Which film did you watch because it got nominated for oscar and u didn't like it?
