Death Proof 9/10
if I’m not mistaken I think it’s the latter half of the “Grindhouse” project (the one Tarantino directed) they released it as 2 separate movies here which they are, they are 2 full length feature films with entirely different stories. anyways “Death Proof” is the most entertaining film I watched this year plus it has loads of car crashes and car chases in it, well the main character is a crazed stunt driver (Kurt Russell) it even features a dodge challenger paying an homage to “vanishing point” and a lots of very hot ladies who talk alot which is the only thing that bothered me about this movie it’s the girl talk I mean it’s surprisingly interesting girl talk in that Tarantino-esque sort of way but it’s a lot of bullshit quite frankly although good bullshit in a way, other than that it’s an awesome awesome movie, even my girl friend liked it she described it a “feminist guy’s movie”.
Anyways lots of hot girls, muscle cars and lots of chasing and running into things I really recommend it!

Death proof was very entertaining movie thats for sure, and the girls dialogs was created by Tarantino himself or that what he said on Letterman

So, do you watch all the movies in spanish ?? That really sucks!!
I know you translate almost everything there, bands names, etc...
BTW I've seen many movies lately. Best ones:
Mr Brooks - it's really good -17/20
The Kingdom - a bit boring at the beggining but quite good - 16/20
Hostel II - quite bad. The first one was way better - 8/20

Yep. Pretty much everything I watch is in spanish... :bah:
But I have to say that it's a pretty damn good dubbing sometimes
|
But I hate dubbed movies, TVshows, everything.... The voice isn't the original and the caracter is moving is mouth and there's no sound....

I guess that's the big difference!
I heard a few people in hear who wanted the movies to be dubbed that said, when we are reading the subtitles we take our eyes from what's important. That's a point, but I think it's better than not hearing the original voice

Me too and besides that, watching undubbed movies helps you learn to pronounce english words better and develop your vocabulary.

They're doing the same in Germany and other countries. It's so hilarious when you're watching a movie with Denzel Washington and you're hearing some cheesy German voice when he opens his mouth
Come to think of it, I think dubbing movies and tv-shows is a big reason why a lot of people in France, Germany, Spain and Italy can hardly speak any English.
I've been watching English TV-shows with and without subtitles since I was three years old and never had to pay much attention in English classes. It's such a huge help in developing language skills.

For someone who grew up completely without dubbing, except from animated childrens shows, I can't get it in my head that someone can get used to dubbing. Doesn't something seem funny when you se an english speaking actor speak spanish? I speak german and understand some dutch and french, and when I see some english speaking actor speak any of those, I simply can't watch the movie...it ruins the whole experience for me, and I get slightly pissed :roll:
I was once going to a german theatre with a friend of mine in Freiburg, but I left after 20minutes, it was just weird to see star wars in german.
what was ever wrong with subtitles? Here everything foreign is subtitled, and no dubbing. The children in elementary school here have english skills like a german high school kid.

I saw it in the cinema a few years ago and while I agree that it was very boring overall, I have to say that cinematographically this film was excellent.
If you like old school movies but would like a bit more action, may I suggest "North by Northwest" from Alfred Hitchcock. I also saw it on the big screen and thought it was one of the best movies I had ever seen!

Didn't really know what to expect, so went in with an open mind and was pleasantly surprised. Definitely worth watching and probably even owning.
