Not so new movies that I've never seen but really want to watch - your opinions

That's a long thread title.

I want to watch:

Before Sunrise
Before Sunset
Beautiful Girls
Sliding Doors
Terms of Endearment

What do you think of them? Worth watching?
Should I stay away from any of these?

Before Sunrise - cute but not as good as expected
Before Sunset - Snoozefest
Beautiful Girls
Sliding Doors - I liked this one, but I saw it a long time ago. NOt sure if my now-self would agree with my high school self
Terms of Endearment

Beautiful Girls was cute. I loved Terms of Endearment- definitely must see in my opinion.

Sliding Doors

But beware- it makes you think too much.

I can't remember any of those.

I know I saw Sliding Doors, not memorable to me - apparently.

And Beautiful Girls... I saw that. They replay it a lot on TNT or something like that. I enjoy. Matt Dillion is a semi-pedophile, I think.

Under the same thread title, I watched
A Room with a View
over the weekend. Not so much.

I always always wanted to watch Before Sunrise. Because - because.

Then when people out in PA used to tell me that I looked like Julie Delpy, I wanted to see it that much more.

Then Before Sunset came out.

Between those and Sliding Doors - I just want to see not so accurate versions of my life on film I guess

Beautiful Girls has awesome songs.

Terms of Endearment - I might be in a crying like my dog died kind of mood one day.

Oh I have seen that. That was back when I wanted to do it with Ethan Hawke.

I can see the Delpy thing in you. I like her. She's b*tichy in the film.

I probably wouldn't watch any of them.

I never really make it a point to see most chick flicks.

it needs to happen by chance...then, of course, I bawl like an asss

.

I am IO to sequels to any film that can be termed 'artsy' or 'independent'. I just think the uniqueness of some movies is what makes them great. That is lost in sequels. Like imagine 'Lost in Re-Translation' although I thought the first one was overrated times a batrillion

Oh, I thought it was AMAZING!!! One of the most underrated films - EVER!

Before Sunrise
Before Sunset

Both are dialogue driven - which is cool. But Before Sunrise is better than Before Sunset. I fell asleep watching both - fell asleep a little sooner and did not rewatch before sunset. I also had a crush on Ethan Hawk when I watched Before Sunrise which may have helped the movie.

Beautiful Girls - Never watched.

Sliding Doors - Enjoyed. Didn't adore and never understood why so many people went nuts for it.

Terms of Endearment - Haven't seen it in a hundred years... but liked it thoroughly when it came out.

See Fall. Awesome movie.
