The Ghostwriter - 10/10 - It was great. The acting was very good and I especially loved the dark atmosphere throughout the film, and of course the (for me) very surprising ending!
The last movie I watched was My Sister's Keeper with Cameron Diaz and Jason Patric. They shouldn't be allowed to make movies this sad. It's about a family. The oldest daughter, Kate, has Leukemia and her younger sister was conceived as a donor match. The movie does not follow linear time and it seems to be broken into different segments for each family member's point of view. If you cry easily and are embarrassed of it then I would recommend watching it alone, and if you must watch it with someone and don't want to cry in front of him or her then you should get up and go to the bathroom or make more popcorn when this song comes on:

Antichrist.
Well, i did not get into the mood of the movie.
Clash of the Titans - an all action, special effects bonanza that was a load of rubbish. I don't know who writes these screenplays, but the pathetic attemps to modernise the Greek Myths was painful. It was all about liberty - again - liberty from the Gods this time. It really grated, and all I could think was - "that's not in the story " that's not what I remember" etc etc. Don't watch it Kyriakos - you'll bust the telly.
the matrix... again, saw it about a hundred times a few years ago and now again for school, always good and seeing it again and doing some research I find a lot deeper and confusing than before.
I liked 1 and 2, they were great, but the third one I felt was incomprehensible.Quote:

Blade Runner - a perrenial favorite for atmosphere. I play it in the background about once a week, and have done for decades. It's a mellow ambience to me: very familiar and like a meditation. Also because there are various versions (one with a voice over) it's like a down-beat symphony interpreted by different conductors. Also the score by Vangelis can heard in isolation (and it's a three cd set)
But the last new movie that I enjoyed was a little gem from Italy (unfortunately I didn't write the name down) but it was about two brothers, one who has the talent and potential to be a great director, and how the elder brother's greed, jealousy and selfishness directly destroys the younger's chances of the greater good.
Brilliant - 10/10
Anyone seen it? I'd love to see it again
I just watched "The Time Travelers Wife" last weekend. It was much better than I had fist anticipated.
My wife and I just finished leaving the theater where we tried to watch "How Do You Know?" The movie's probably still going on, but we figured there were better things to do.
Lianai Tonggao . Its performers include Wang Lihong and Liu Yifei . It is about the love between one star singer and one university student . I don't think it' a very good movie but i am interested to watch the movie completely due to its performers . Haha
2001: A Space Odyssey...It was just an all around masterpiece. 5/5.
Last night - Apocalyto. Complete knockout about the last days of Aztec Civilisation, and much much more!
You owe it to yourself to beg, buy, borrow, even steal, to see this one
10/10 from I
The Kids are Alright. 8/10 The acting is good. I enjoyed it.
Love and Other Drugs. Loved it. this one is a winner. The plot isn't all that original, but the way the story is told and the acting move this out of the realm of the completely ordinary. 9/10.
Black Swan. Creepy. I love it, but for some reason it makes me think of Psycho. Probably because the main characters of each are brother and sister. The only difference is that fewer people actually die in this one. 9/10 Nothing's perfect, after all...
