My last one is Collateral , directed by Michael Mann and starring Tom Cruise. And am sorry to say, I don't find anything so particular about the movie :rolleyes:
I think the one who played the taxi driver is not too appropriate. He's too young to live the life as describe in the movie (IMHO).
I give it 6.5
I bought a blockbuster dvd pass and wathed a lot of movies recently, I recommend:
Hero(China)
Beijing Bicycle(China)
Blind Shaft(China)
the shadow of empire(China)
a girl from Paris(France)
piano teacher(France)
Lucía y el sexo(Spain)
girl with a pearl earing
the door on the floor
bowling for columbine
the company
I also wanna watch chorus(France) ,a very long engagement(France),motocycle diaries(Brazil) and the sea inside(Spain). I can't find those in theaters now, so I have to wait for dvds:mad:.
Wow! I've been meaning to see this but haven't made the time. Thanks for the kick in the rear end.Quote:

Right now I only rent nice feel good movies like "A knights tale" . I love that one.
And I think it is time to see "Shrek" and "Lelo and Stitch" again. Sometimes a bit of regression is needed in order to stay moderatly sane.
The last movie I watched was The Motorcycle Diaries staring the gorgeous Gael Garcia Bernal ;) It was such a good film; great directing and great acting. It made me feel inspired. I remember my friend and I joking as we left the cinema: "Lets start our own revolution...!" hehehe, even though the film never really focused on Che's revolutionary ideals....hmmmm......no wait, actually, I think the last film I saw was Kinsey. I didnt think it would be that explicit....I think that's why I forgot I watched it, I wanted to erase traces of the movie from my brain, lol...
Tonight, after many recommendations to watch it, I finally saw The Butterfly Effect. During a few moments I felt lost in the film, as the setting changes quite often, but I loved it, as I usually get somewhat entranced with these types of movies; the ending I feel a little unsure about, however. I felt impressed with Asthon Kutcher's performance; he proved a better actor than I had previously thought. My rating: 8.5/10.
The director doesn't really understand what butterfly effect is, the film is talking about fatalism.Quote:

The " Thomas Crown Affair" with Pierce Brosnan??
Well, personally I wasnt that impress and probably would only give it around 7-7.5...I like the ending though..
I just saw this film. It chronicles the events surrounding the recent genocide that took place in 1994. It is clear that the "free" nations of the world live in blindness—by ignorance or choice—to these atrocities. This film is good but it is mostly important for those of us who feel secure in our own lives to see.
What really struck me is that the division between the Hutu's and Tutu's (not sure if I spelled that correctly) was solely based upon the way a person looked. Essentially, both groups of people were related to each other, and one day folks started measuring noses, rating darkness and lightness of skin, and two groups were formed that were suddenly pitted against each other. The differences were very subtle.
Go see it. It has sparked my interest in becoming more aware of world events.
We do not go to the cinema and usually We don't even watch televison. But about a week ago, We made an exeption.
The film was "Good-bye, Lenin"
We liked it. The idea was brilliant and as a plus, it didn't reek of Holliwood. And it was also very sweet.
We'll give it 8,9/10
