An error has ocurred. Please try againPlz note that the movie "Revolution" was re-released on DVD (after the forced release in 1985) under the name "Revolution-Revisited" , and that is the cut represented on this list.
There are no movies by Zack Snyder (the most overrated director of all time) on this list because they are just *beep* coverd in silk (over use of CGI ,flashy action sences, and sex with little substence )
Reviews
Rosebud (1975)
A Misunderstood Masterpiece
I think this movie gets lot of hate because it was marketed wrong. This is not an "action movie" as they my suggest, but rather a drama with dark comedic elements. First-off I was surprised to see a film by the great Otto Preminger panned like hell by critics and those on IMDb.Anyway,I think this is because people went in expecting a flashy action movie, with Peter O'Tool round-house kicking terrorist.
Moreover, this movie may seem like a pretty lighthearted movie at first(which is the genius of it), but you would find serious socio- political subtexts communicated through dialog and direct/ hidden symbolism (which employ the visual aspect of film).
If there is another movie I could compare this movie to,that would be "The French Connection". However, in my opinion, Preminger's movie if far better.
