Yes. Snatch and Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels were the ones I had in mind. Similar type of humour presented in a much more understated way.

At least most people of the sort who watches a lot of movies. Blade Runner and Alien are some of my favorite movies. I probably like Prometheus and Alien: Covenant more than most too. That had their flaws but eh... whatever. That whole mid section of Covenant where David is acting like and oddball: Loved it! |

You'd be surprised by just how many people I know in real life who haven't seen Alien.

You just can't beat the racist (no I'm not just using the term lightly), coked out midget scene. I'm a huge fan of the use of motifs in the movie, which will probably be a little more apparent on further viewings.

I think most people I know under that age must have seen it. One odd thing though: I have this PC gamer friend who's 30, a big fan of anything Deus Ex or cyberpunk and also that Blade Runner PC game. He hadn't ever seen the actual Blade Runner movie until last year... I had to pester him to watch it, and then he just said he thought it was boring. I didn't even know what to say to him! |
