- The Interview in Borat Subsequent Moviefilm. A simple setup — two chairs, microphone packs, and questionable intentions — led to a potent mix of cinematic magic and real-life absurdity.
- The Reunion in Da 5 Bloods. When Paul (Delroy Lindo) has vision of an emotional reunion with his long-dead Army comrade Norman (Chadwick Boseman), it already made one of the most powerful scenes in a movie full of them.
- The Funeral in Dick Johnson Is Dead. After we've watched Dick Johnson "die" several times, it's fitting that the film's grand finale features its hero watching his own funeral.
- The Escape in Extraction. As a stuntman, stunt coordinator, and second unit director, Sam Hargrave has been a part of some of the biggest action films of the last decade, from Atomic Blonde to Avengers: Endgame.
Mar 17, 2020 · FiddleSticks Rework – Truly Terrifying Hero Cinematic. Ruan Smit. RIOT released a rework of the terrifying scarecrow, Fiddlesticks, who was released as part of the original heroes list since 2009. Personally, I’m not one for horror movies but even this caught my attention.

Despite its satirical undercurrent, American Utopia doesn’t wallow in cynicism, and the closing stretch breaks through the many layers of the show’s postmodern impunity for a stirring plea for a better world. David Byrne covers Janelle Monáe’s “Hell You Talmbout,” an enraged lament for black people slain by cops and white supremacists that’s given ...
In Another Round, Mads Mikkelsen’s Martin and his buddies seek refuge from their crisis of masculinity through alcohol, by never being sober enough to feel a thing. By the film’s final sequence, the strategy has proven untenable. Martin, who thought he’d lost it all, receives an unexpected reconciliatory text from his wife. Finally, there’s hope fo...
Throughout writer-director Kitty Green’s The Assistant, young, beautiful women are brought into an unseen movie mogul’s office at late hours, and are referenced by both male and female employees with contempt. Growing fearful for one of the women, Jane (Julia Garner) tries to complain to an H.R. officer, Wilcock (Matthew Macfadyen), who first encou...
Kleber Mendonça Filho and Juliano Donnelles’s Bacurau doesn’t lack for memorable scenes, but one is especially powerful for the way it seeks to subvert our sense of the bodies displayed on screen. The sight of an old naked man is obviously intended to invite a certain type of gut reaction, which the filmmakers swiftly flip on its head when rifle-wi...
Of all the unforgettable lost souls we meet across the running time of Bill and Ross Turner’s Blood Nose, Empty Pockets, Michael Martin is the most haunting: a washed-up actor, alcoholic, and all-around tortured artist type who’s fashioned himself as the sage of a Las Vegas dive bar. For much of the film, his anguish is evident but unspoken of, as ...
Frederick Wiseman’s films routinely feature contemplative passages that simply observe people at work, but leave it to a group of sanitation workers to turn one City Hall sequence into something close to spectacle. At first, by way of showcasing the efficiency of the workers swiftly collecting trash in a pristine neighborhood, Wiseman allows us to ...
Cameras, we’re repeatedly reminded by Donbass’s mise-en-scène, are violators, as they merely augment the dangerous power of the person wielding them. The film’s most harrowing elucidation of this theme comes in a scene on a public street, where a Ukrainian loyalist, tied to a pole by a pair of armed separatists, endures various humiliations at the ...
For a while, Christopher Landon’s mash-up of Freaky Friday and Friday the 13th easily aces the slasher-movie bell curve. The pace is tight, the gore is unexpectedly inventive, if neutered by the preponderance of obvious CGI, and the stunt casting of Vince Vaughn as a hulking serial killer is inspired. There’s little at stake though, besides Freaky’...
Though Victor Kossakovsky’s Gunda never subjects us to gruesome images of slaughter à la Georges Franju’s Blood of the Beasts, it nevertheless closes with a prolonged single-shot sequence that’s more heartbreaking than any depiction of the goings-on in an abattoir ever captured on film. In this sequence, a truck pulls up to the barn where the pigs ...
Once we’re sufficiently acclimated to Ham on Rye’s foreboding, wistful atmosphere, the filmmakers spring a poignant and satirical surprise. The teenage characters aren’t making their way toward a formal event like the traditional prom, but a ceremonial dance at a deli, in which they eat sandwiches together before forming boys- and girls-only lines ...

- Joe After the Show – and a New Perspective in Soul. In Pixar's Soul, Joe Gardner (Jamie Foxx) is a middle school band teacher who wants nothing more than to be professional jazz musician.
- Ruben is Asked to Leave the House in Sound of Metal. Here it is. The most emotionally devastating movie moment of 2020. Sound of Metal follows Ruben (Riz Ahmed), a musician who loses his hearing and finds himself forced to reckon with a life utterly unlike the one he used to live.
- The Restaurant Scene in The Invisible Man. This is the scene that takes The Invisible Man from a very good movie to a great one. Everything up to this point in Leigh Whannell's brilliant #MeToo horror movie works like gangbusters, but it's this scene in particular that solidifies the amazing work Whannell is doing.
- Fern Glues Her Broken Plates Back Together in Nomadland. Fern (Frances McDormand) is a middle-aged woman who, after losing her husband and her job thanks to the economic crisis, lives her life out of her van, driving around the country from job to job.
Basically there are no horror flicks popular among normies right now. This can be huge for Riot because if a Fiddlesticks movie is made, and is done well, which I fully expect Riot to be able to do based on what they've done for the champ so far it will become massive in mainstream media.
Dec 9, 2020 · But great scenes can come from all sorts of movies—even, say, a nattering family-friendly video game adaptation we’d otherwise prefer to forget. You’ll find that and more on the list that ...
