I'd say 90% of movies from the 70's / early 80's
Those movies just drag for like no good reason.
There's always some pointless meandering for completely no reason.
My dad was a movie junky so we ended up renting and watching almost every film in the local video store. So we saw a ton of old crappy movies :snoop: to tell the truth I couldn't have told you if those movies were any good even back in there day, but they were absolute trash now.

Natural Born Killers

:snoop:

That movie was meant to be a snapshot of 90's culture, so I wouldn't call it dated. It's like calling a time capsule dated :skip:

Pulp Fiction

Yeah, I know it's Tarantino's so called "best" film but the movie drags now. It was cool when it first came out but now it just drags a lot more than it does entertain although Samuel Jackson's scenes are still gold.


Reservoir Dogs holds up a lot better than Pulp Fiction anyway; better storytelling, more profound characters and better writing.

Reservoir Dogs is Tarantino's best film in my opinion.

BULLshyt. I call bullshyt

Why The French Connection is considered a classic I'll never understand

Michael Mann's Manhunter.

A good film and it's a shame because Brian Cox's take on Hannibal is an interesting alternative to Hopkins' but that cheesy ass score, the clothes and William Petersen's performance hurt the film.
