return of the sith - 3.5/5

good overall.
at least its not a disaster like episode 1 and 2

poor acting, poor dialogs... (lame: nooooooo! moment)

but the way everythihng is explained and driven to fit with
the old movies is very good...

dahmer: 1/5 -- i was only interested in seeing this movie
because jeffrey dahmer was from milwaukee wisconsin and i
was curious about the way hollywood would depict
wisGonsin...well, seems to me they didn't depict it at all.
crappy movie, obviously -- not to mention i haven't had the
stomach for this sort of thing since i was about 14

hotel rwanda -- 3/5 -- i'm a sappy kind of girl so of course
i liked this movie and schindler's list and others like
them. but the movie could definitely have been better -- i
thought we were kind of thrown in with not very much
background info, too. and that i didnt really know anything
about what happened before seeing the movie is honestly kind
of disgusting considering the magnitude of it. i dont know,
worth seeing anyway.

3... Extremes - 4/5

From comically gruesome to David Lynch-ian creepyness, the
three directors Fruit Chan, Park Chanwook, and Takashi Miike
have collaborated on a great little asian psycho horror
triple feature.

3 Iron - 4/5

Though a bit pretentious, this is a very enjoyable yet
unconventional love story in which the two main characters
never speak to eachother on screen, save one scene when the
woman utters the words "I love you." It is a Korean Bonnie
and Clyde-like story. A man who routinely breaks into
houses meets an abused wife who decides to run away with
him. They break into houses then cook, clean, and create
harmless mischief, never speaking to eachother but slowly
falling in love. They eventually get caught, and the man
trains himself to become like a ghost so he can escape and
be with the woman again.

Primer - 4/5

I really enjoyed this brief but intelligent mind-bender
about time travel. I immediately watched it a second time
when it finished, to try to put the puzzle together.

2046 - 3/5

Wong Kar Wai's new film about a writer (tony leung) who
dates several women and writes his experiences into a novel
about the future. I didn't enjoy this as much as 'Chung
King Express' mostly because it is so damn long. but is is
beautifully filmed in Wong Kar Wai's style, showing a
cramped intimate Hong Kong of the 1960's.

Japanese Story 2/5

Toni Colette playes a software programmer who is obliged to
tour around the Australian desert with a Japanese
businessman. They get stranded in the desert and despite
their differences form a unique loving bond. But 2/3rd's of
the way through the film, a quite unexpected but
semi-retarded even happens and the movie changes into a
weepy depressing narative about Toni Colette's character
dealing with loss. A rather heavy-handed, laughable movie I
cannot recommend.

North Korea: A Day in the Life 4/5
Seoul Train 4/5

I saw these two documentaries as a double feature yesterday
in the Seattle Film Festival. Both are about 50 minutes
long but both are immensely interesting. The first,
North Korea: A Day in the Life is a piece done by a
director Pieter Fleury from the Netherlands. He was allowed
by the North Korean government to follow around a few
members of a family on a typical day in Pyongyang. There is
no commentary at all. No Michael Moore style grandstanding.
But there doesn't need to be. The message is clear.
Living in North Korea is like living is some wierd Orwellian
society. The children go to school where they are taught
'lessons' about the benevolance of their dear leader Kim
Jong Il. The woman works in a factory where high production
is viewed as the way to fight the 'battle' against outside
tyranny. And they all do it with big smiles on their
faces.

Seoul Train shows different side of the North Korean
dillema. People who are not party loyalists, living in
rural North Korea are suffering from famine and poverty.
The situation is so desperate, they seek to escape via an
underground railroad run by activists who attempt to smuggle
refugees through china, mongolia and into south korea. We
get to see a couple different groups risking their lives for
freedom. The tragic thing is, The Chinese government
actively hunts down and captures 'illegal immigrants' and
sends them back to North Korea. But defecting from North
Korea is a capitol offense. Refugees that are caught and
returned, are imprisoned, tortured, and executed. Pregnant
women are given brutal forced abortions. China sends some
100 North Koreans back every month to their certain deaths.

mulholland drive A+ !

It did everything a good film should. It frightened me,
suspended me, awed me, and confused the hell out of me.
But I think I understood it. I figured out the events
weren't in order thats for sure. The puzzles to Lynch's
films are like riddles with the answer on the tip of your
tongue, it's all there just add things up. I won't say what
I think it was all about, as most of you already know and
some of you would rather not know. Good film.

Is Blue Velvet worth a watch?

i'd give it a 2/5. even though she was just sitting there,
looking like a doll, i think she enjoyed it in her own
fucked up way (then again, i only have about 37 minutes of
it). she's not that unpleasant to look at so it was mildly
enjoyable.

.....sorry for sharing that but you seem like a girl who
does not get that easily offended.

well, i'm not a huge fan of porn, but i do know good from
bad.. and that was definatly bad. maybe if she wasn't so
self-absorbed and didn't spend like 10 minutes flimming her
body .. unless it was curvier and her boobs were bigger..
then it'd be okay.

and night vision isn't that hot.

i'd rather watch a mary-kate and ashley olsen film.. hehe

man on fire 3.5/5

i didn't see this until now because it's a tony scott film
and when i hear the name tony scott i think sucky,
but i've realized that i really shouldn't (not to mention
everytime i go to rent a movie featuring denzel
washington/brad pitt/johnny depp/really any famously
attractive man, i get shit from my boyfriend)! he has done
true romance, which is one of my favorite movies ever, and
enemy of the state! and this movie was pretty cool too,
even if it was kind of choppy and a lil overdone visually.
and the story itself was especially interesting to me
because i work with a lot of mexicans who have been telling
me crazy stories about mexico city and i find that whole
place to be kind of intriguing.
