[no, i'm just being ultra-honest. i don't like stories like these. after about 30 minutes i was giving it a fair 3/5 [good] but then it was simply getting worse. this kind of "wait the whole film just to discover that his mum was pregnant with his own grand granddad's cousin" doesn't excite me. before i think of rating a film i consider if : - i would gladly watch that film again - i had fun/enjoyed the film - the story/plot seems logical enough imo perhaps it's a classic film, i'm not saying "it's bad", i'm not a film expert. i just don't like it. it's only an opinion. read this thread deeper to discover more shocking reviews.] ----------------------------------------------------------- -- Gegen Die Wand................3.5/5 [ending 3/5, what a bitch] |

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 4/5 I enjoyed this one a lot. quite dark and yet fun and silly. of course it left out much (most) of the longest book in the series, but the 25% that it covered was the best 25%. Best movie in the series so far? perhaps, I'd have to watch the 3rd one again to be sure. |

sunset boulevard: apparently one of david lynch's favourite movies, a tale of holywood and people who will stoop to any level for success. A struggling writer crosses paths with a fallen actress from the silent era who has warped delusions of grandeur passed. chanderian noir voice overs a plenty in this 1950's black and white classic. worth a watch. |

IDF's (Independant Dark Film) for fun... The AX (Le Couperet) France 9/10 Redundancy, corporate..serial killer...the bain of Greenpeace; loves wasting paper tres bien... this intelligent thriller in the "American Psyhco" mode is absurdly humourous yet totally plausible. Truth About Demons (NZ) 7/10 Cultish neo-horror as Clive Barker's "Hell Raiser"; makes J-LO's butt flick "The Cell" like like a girl scout picnic. MPD - Psycho Japan (Takashi Miike)- 10/10 3 part series of cyberhorror; not for the screamish - flower pot heads, piano wire...cyber punk horrors.. bring it on baby... Avalon Japan 10/10 Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell) Forget Final Fantasy, this could be sequel to the above movie the landscapes of rotting industrial decay, ...freedom fighters in this live action anime - pure escapism... Versus Japan 8/10 Ryuhei Kitamura Live Action anime; like the Tekken video game played in a forest with swords, high tech weaponry, sorcery is a blast! Neat American Nasty The Manuchurian Candidate -USA - 9/10 Everything is under control! Denzel Washington rocks in this thriller stylised like Jacobs Ladder or Clockwork Orange... |

thanks for mentioning Jacob's Ladder! - 5/5 Collateral 4/5 - THESE kinds of roles fit Cruise perfectly. The Interpreter 4/5 - Don't know about Penn, but Kidman rules. MPD Psycho 8/10 - Even though I'm a miike fanatic, I just couldn't follow the story all the way to the last steps, maybe the shite subtitles had something to do with it. Anyway quite intriguing. |

hahaha I can see you're focused on one thing Obara. I liked The Fourth body, but with the others I agree. Maybe half a point more for Harry Potter. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - 4,5/5. |

|

hahah, no....i'm usually focused on 3 things at a time. well, on first thought i considered throwing all the xxx discs i recently got out of my balcony to see them flying in the winter air. maybe i could hit one of the rooks making noise every day on the near-by trees ? the fourth body is the kind of films where the director can't decide if he wants to make an art film or a just a piece of....pr0n. |

Mail Order Wife: 4/5 I watched this entire movie thinking it was a documentary. I was getting so pissed off, and then during the end credits, as I'm at the epitome of my disgust for humanity, I realize that the movie was fiction and i am a moron. Hahaha it was so funny in retrospect. I love the post-it notes that say "keep ironing." HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAH. And the pigs!!! OOOOOOOH my god. |

Atanarjuat (The fast runner) - i'm not going to rate this one. it was a good watch though - interesting culture, lots of drama, nice cinematrography. there were times where i was having trouble piecing the plot together and really knowing what the characters were thinking, but this was probably due to me not understanding the language and culture all that well (and being somewhat inebriated at the time). |
