Man Push Cart ~ Indie, filmed on location in New York City. Me like.
Tropic Thunder. Ha Ha. 6/10. Loved the ego of them actors. Especially the American/Australian/African American!
Funny About Love 7/10. It's not Wilder's funniest movie and the ending seems like it was there just to tie things up, but a lot of movies(and books) seem like that to me.
The "Pink Panther 2". I saw it two times-the first time was really funny-the second time was just average. I would give it an "8".
No offense to anyone, but i recently saw he's just not that into you...it was against my will and it was long and pointless
They Live
Unintentionally funny. So bad that it is good. On the same level as Red Dawn.
Waltz with Bashir
It was shown in Hebrew with Danish subtitle :bawling: I swear it was English when I watched the trailer in the official website. I caught very little parts of the movie and afterward my Swedish friend had to re-tell the whole story to me. And my frequent question to him was, 'in this scene, when he did this bla bla, what did he say...'
I love the animation though.
Let The Right One In with English subtitles. Seen it a couple of days ago. I liked it, it is a different take on a vampire flick. Wouldn't recommend it to people who watch horror movies for lots of gore, there's no rivers of blood even though there are a few severed limbs and what could be called 'disturbing scenes' but other than that it's pretty tame but it actually tells a story, not just made for shock value. Anybody else seen it?
Oh, and I'd say it's about 8.5/10
The Devil wears Prada. Great work by Meryl Streep,she is amazing somehow. I very much like Stanley Tucci's performance. I have this like/dislike over Anne Hathaway. She did a good job but something about her seems too,,,I don't know, perhaps she tries too hard. Can't fathom it , but something she does makes her character seem just a little not real. I would give it probably a seven of ten.
You know, I was disappointed in Big Fish although I loved Bonham Carter.
They Live bad? Obviously, you're not a golfer.Quote:

I know I'm wayyyy behind, but I saw 300 for the first time last night. I was AMAZING. It was so ascetically pleasing, and actually had plot.
9/10 :thumbs_up
Guy Maddin's My Winnipeg.
I loved it, but found it fatally flawed at the same time. It was a rather personal work, and the overall goal of the film was to dissect Maddin's hometown and childhood and the apocryphal local lore attached to it in order to awake himself from its sleep-inducing effects. In this regard it was successful. But I felt that Maddin was too loose with his directing (probably because he was having too much fun) and his ending seemed unnatural and forced, as if it was there only for the sake of having a conclusion (probably because of the above). Though, a plus was that he (subconsciously?) took inspiration from Joyce's Dubliners, especially the first and last stories.
How to find one's way out?. . . Out of the lap of the city, out of the lap described by the Forks, of the Red, the Assiniboine. The Forks, Assiniboine and the Red. The rivers that forced animals and hunters alike on the same pathways. The Forks, the lap. . . What if...? What if I film my way out of here?
This intro sounds just like the narrator at the beginning of Dubliners and the self-exile in the snow looks just the end of it, "The Dead." But I digress.
8/10
All about Eve
I've been a little obsessed with Marilyn Monroe lately so I'm trying to watch everything she has ever been in. Although she plays only a small part in All about Eve, I was surprised by what a good movie it is. I love it when they get the casting perfect (can't stand it when they cast someone like Scarlett Johannson or Anne Hathaway in what are supposed to be likeable roles) and the casting was perfect here. Bette Davis has a very intelligent face and she must be very good because the viewer sympathises with her completely.
