CAMELOT FANTASIES

Yeah, Terms of Endearment was one that sprung to my mind too. 

I found "Click", which is more of a comedy although with an underlying moral story, a little sad in parts - particularly the wedding and his death at the end. 

The endings of "Sixth Sense" and "Shawshank Redemption" were kind of sad in a different sort of way.  The sadness of emptiness more than anything.

No I didn't like it much. In fact, I didn't even want to see it but then I was in college and it was showing for $1 only in our University theatre. And a friend of mine back then, who just became a big fan of this movie, forced me to go with her and watch. It was quite annoying as she kept checking my reaction after certain scenes and I kept hoping for it to end. I was very bored by then so just wanted to get it over with. lolol I am not a very big fan of mainstream movies, the big bugdets, the supposed blocked busters. Typically they are quite flawed and the stars are often bigger than the movies. So it's a turn off for me but unfortunately I can't make people see what I see.

I did see a lot of the movies back then in the theatre as soon as they came out, like The Matrix, A Beautiful Mind, Memento, The Sixth Sense, Vanilla Sky, The Blair Witch Project  and many more - just don't remember it all of them. I was a student and you know, had a thousand friends and so we'd go out to watch movies late at night together on the weekend. A lot of fun time now looking back.

Shawshank Redemption is a movie you want to see once or twice in your lifetime. I must admit though that I've seen it twice so far already, so it's more than likely that I may watch it again. It's always very nice to watch it with someone who hasn't seen it before. For example, the 2nd time I watched it with my sister and she wasn't even into it at first, but then I noticed how she got engaged bit by bit. That was so nice to see, you know and it makes you appreciate the movie so much more. And also, when you watch these sort of movies every few years, they just tend to give you different perspectives each time.

I have yet to watch Click. Sixth Sense had some major flaws though I initially liked it, but because of the flaws, it didn't stay with me for too long. I did see this movie in the theatre when it came out first.

Last night I watched the final installment of the Star Trek movies with the original crew where they sign off. It's called Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country. The subject matter is more political than a true sci-fi and was very timely in the sense what was going on at that time, cold war and all, but it was still brilliant. The final log entry by Captain Kirk made me cry in the end. It was so sad and if you had taken the journey with them, you'd know how hard it is to say good bye to this finest crew on earth. I did first start watching Star Trek (the TV series) with the original cast in the mid 90s and this movie came out before then, so that was quite revealing as well. But it was not my first time watching, this movie, as I have already watched all of them.

Yes, that's definitely a good movie with a sad ending. Natalie was still a child in this movie but she acted quite well.
