It's hard to say what is so exceptional about this film, but simply put, it cannot be well explained, or rather, it requires a bit of imagination and to be carried away by the wave of Tony Scott's directorial invention, who turned an ordinary story into a thrilling action film about revenge with beautiful camera filters, true love, and captivating music. A brutal and unprecedentedly sad Hollywood film with the best ingredients. A legend of my childhood.

A perfect portrayal of war and everything that goes with it. The story of soldiers who are only killing machines in war, but from their point of view it is something else.

Boring and sterile academic piece of crap that pretends to be something it's not. The Oscar should have gone to Lord of the Rings.

It is certainly not a flawless film, but technically it is so brilliant that I’m happy to forgive all its shortcomings. Steven Spielberg shows us a real war like nobody has before. Tom Hanks is a genius, as well as Spielberg and Janusz Kaminski. For me, the best war film of all time.

A deep idea, the best action, Arnold at his most likeable, James Cameron at his best. T2 is a classic that will hardly ever be surpassed within the genre.

Kevin Costner excelled in 1990 with serious genius, when he was able to direct and mostly act in something like this, his best film. John Barry composed one of the best soundtracks of all time, and the script was also top-notch. All the Oscars are well-deserved, and a touching ending. An epic masterpiece that defined modern westerns.

Probably the best Seagal movie. It has great action, brutal moves, fantastic music, and very good stunts. Additionally, the final scene in the war cemetery is very iconic. Casey Ryback standing in his shiny white uniform with his niece over her father's grave, it always occurs to me that we actually see Seagal in the last good shot, in the last good movie.

A nicely shot western that has entered history as one of the most genuine and raw in its genre. Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman deliver masterful performances, with the brutal Gene Hackman skillfully supporting them (Oscar). In addition to all of this, there is perfect camera work, brilliant editing, and a final epilogue at sunset.

A thrilling battle between Sylvester Stallone and Antonio Banderas. The former’s wooden acting skillfully served him this time. But what deserves the biggest praise is Banderas' performance. He is so devilish and charismatic at the same time that he instills fear. He just looks at you and his expression says more than 10 words from Stallone. These brilliantly contrasting actors, however, clash in a film that loses steam towards the end. The window scene is still alright, but the final surprise could have been left out. Nevertheless, it is still an enjoyable flick.

There is a certain dose of exaggeration and typically Tarantino humor that the viewer must embrace right from the beginning, otherwise the film be a lousy experience. Tarantino is firmly in control and directs the way he wants, which is, of course, evident in the result. The whole film carries an excellent atmosphere, enhanced by perfectly tuned exteriors and brilliantly interwoven music. Kill Bill fulfills all the film elements to the fullest but it may happen that a more conservatively inclined viewer won’t find their way to it and will not like it. It was also very interesting to see Uma Thurman, who underwent intense training for this role and it is truly visible. Tarantino plays with visual composition, constructs dialogues well, and overall the film is more captivating with a plethora of references and clever tricks, rather than a basic message as such, which is truly simple.
