my favourite has gotta be stalker a russian film from 1979 its a classic in how to create tension without much going on .some people find it very boring but id use the phrase mesmerizeing to explain it anyone not checked it out should its based on a book by the sturgatsky bros called road side picnic. id advise everyone to read the book then check the film its excellent

i may be some time

Yeah, just slightly more focused on character than science as compared with the original.

Cloony's version was a flop because of how slow & measured the pace was.

Since I am no movie critic, both my selections are subjective. The two movies I have watched the most times and enjoyed the most, are Bladerunner and Serenity. I see that there is a lot of support for 2001 and deservedly so. 2001 was epic and ground braking. I am a little surprised at the lack support for Serenity. Serenity had great characters, great dialog, and great plot. The idea that a totalitarian government would add a drug to the air or water system to make the people more compliant and easier to control, is chilling plausible.

good bible
