Gee, Grace, I did not see the second one you listed. I guess I was asking you about "Jumper" but now that I think of it, what was the second one about also, the one that made you cry?Quote:

Shalot Jumper was excellent! But then I loved the Bourne Identity so when I heard that the producer was the same I thought it might be good. Really awesome.
Janine Jumper is about this guy who discovers (I won't say how) that just by thinking of the image of another place (i.e. Egypt) he can send himself there. Turns out he is not the only one who can do this and there are also Christian zealots gone bad who try to hunt him and his type down, so while the main character is zipping around jumping from Rome to Egypt and such, he is being chased down by these "hunters" who have all kinds of equipment to catch him. My description is horrible Janine, but when it comes out on DVD or if you like to go to the movies you should check it out. Very action filled.
Definitely Maybe is the movie that made me cry. That one is about this man who is getting a divorce and his daughter asks him how he met her mom. She wanted to know the whole story not the one parents usually tell little children. So the story goes on about who he dated throughout his college life and the father changed the names of the women so that the point would be for his daughter to guess who her mother was in the story. It was so very sweet. The ending was not like you would expect it to be though which made it all the better. This one is also still in theaters.
"Atonement"
I would give it 9/10
I divided the story into two parts:
1. The idea of a young girl being jealous when loving someone older, and tending to ruin anything he enjoys is a realistic point that I find interesting to be seen in movies.
2. The idea of growing up and trying to fix what she had done, then failing; thus, she had to fix things and turn them into a happy ending through a novel, a method that I personally would do.
the sound and picture were good as well.
heh you are not alone :)Quote:

"Take the money and run" W Allen 6/10
I like Allen's films but this one i didn't much like. Perhaps just because it was his first film..dunno..his sense of houmor surely evolved after that.
Some people are getting more and more horrible...Anyway, this remark is related to the film I watched last night. I think it was Etienne who recommended it to me. Thank you!!!!
"Vargtimmen" or "The Hour of the Wolf" (English title) by Bergman.
10/10, beautiful. In terms of plot, in terms of cinematography, the depiction of the characters. Cinematic Art in all its glory. "ART"- a lost word, I think.
Definately one of Bergman's best efforts. Check out his Trilogy, Through A Glass Darkly, Winter Light and The Silence, if you haven't yet seen it.
I have seen "Through A Glass Darkly", what an excellent film!! I will watch "Winter Light" and "Silence" this week. Thank you so much, Mark!!!
I've been looking for another of his films, Scoop, which was made in '06 but aparently never made it to the UK. It's not out even on dvd! Have you heard of it? (oh and guess who acts in it....:p )Quote:

I don't think there was a burden, but if there was it was the story; that was carried by the production team if anybody: Joel Coen, Ethan Coen, Roger Deakins the Cinematography, Sound Department, Casting, Costume Design, Makeup Department etc.Quote:

I think Woody Harrelson was the weak link of the film.
What a great ending though. I saw it twice in the theater. 9.5/10
A Cinderella Story
i only saw that yesterday!
