Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith
2005 - Lord Lucas

There's something very Star Warsy about this film. It still looks like a prequel but feels like one of the originals, know what I mean? Even though the acting and dialogue is still pretty much the same as in the last two, the story unfolds nicely, the action is pretty good and the film's pretty damn funny in parts. Anywho, Sith is definitely better than Menace and Clones. I'd even say it's better than A New Hope and Jedi, but some may disagree. Overall, I'd rate it B+.

Star Wars : Episode III - Revenge of the Sith

Thought it was great. I still like Empire and Star Wars more, but this is in a strong third. You know, although Amidala'a performance was still very stilted and corny, I thought there was a BIG improvement in Anakin. The petulant boy did rear his head a couple of times, but for the most part, I thought he was pretty damn good. McGregor was so much like Guiness, it was a little unnerving. He WAS Obi-wan. Jackson was still underused, but did play a more important role in the story. Yoda was fantastic.

The action scenes were unlike anything I have seen, including LotR, and the visual density of some of the compositions begged for subsequent viewings to take it all in. The opening tracking shot on the Jedi tie fighters (yes, they had them first) was incredible, and although I thought the opening battle could have been trimmed down a bit time-wise, it was still amazing.

Now for the important stuff. At one point while watching the film, I suddenly realized I cared. I cared about what happened to this torn, confused man who really wanted to do what was right for his family and for the republic. I cared about the failed master who control over his prodigy, he lost. I realized I was a part of the fun of Star Wars again, and I went into the theater with a BIG chip on my shoulder, expecting the worst.

Aside from the trite and sophmoric romance dialouge (maybe the worst romance dialouge of the three prequels), the screenplay was BRILLIANT. The insidious way the emporer unfolds his scheme was perfect. Lucas finally got a solid plot going, and I couldn't help but be caught up in the intrigue. Gone was the confusing and useless policical filibustering that bogged the first two prequels down, with a clear narrative surfacing for the audience to chew on while they enjoyed the amazing glactic battles and flashing sabre battles.

I can't wait to see it again.

Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999 - George Lucas)
I saw this when it was first released at the cinema, and i wasnt impressed then, and i wasnt all that impressed last night. i think this movie is mainly for the fans of the original trilogy. The story was the biggest let down for me as i found it so hard to try and understand. Maybe i was just being dim, but as someone who does not really know the story behind the Star Wars trilogy, i found it very hard to follow. It was way too bogged down in politics...which i find boring in our galaxy let alone in one far, far away. I understand the importance of the story as it shows how the dark side comes to have its power through Emperor Palpatines manipulation, but as a non star wars fan, way too slow and boring. I think when Lucas wrote the scripts for these three prequal episodes, he wanted to stick with the same kind of dialogue that we have in the original trilogy, however to a modern audience, this just makes the characters come across as really cheesy. Especially Obi Won in this episode. I found the emotionless Princess Amidaliadoodar, the hammy young Anakin and the INCREDIBLY annoying Jar Jar Binx to be a big let down for the film, there is no charm with any of these characters, just...annoyance. The only saving grace for me was the pod racing and fight with Darth Maul. Very cool. Even with all this films inadequacies, George Lucas still knows how to show a unique, odd and beautioful view of his strange galaxy, i cant fault the special effects and the way the film looks.
Cheesy, muddled, slow but looks great. Without the pod race or fight with Darth Maul this would have gotten a two.

2_5

Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002 - George Lucas)
This episode i found far more enjoyable. We actually have progression in this film, and with the elimination of young Anakin and the slow fading out of Jar Jar, we have to reasons to enjoy it more from the very beginning. With this episode we really feel the story moving forwards, we see the arrogance of Hayden Christensen's Anakin beginning to show, and the touchy relationship he has with the Jedi council and Obi-Won. We also see a lot more action, as the war has truly begun. I really liked the way in which whenever we see the darkness in Anakin, in the music you hear the odd hint at the dark side theme 'der-der-der-der,der,der-der,der,der' (Sing it and you know what i mean.) And as the film progresses, we see little hints of the regressing technology that we see throughout the original trilogy, showing us how Lucas is intending to blend the trilogies together seemlessly by the end of episode three (which he does very well.) However, once again we have the cheesy acting and dialogue. The blossoming (and slightly creepy) relationship between Anni and Amidaliadoolia is vomit inducing as they run around in meadows and sit by rivers blinking at each other, and the witty and funny C3PO from the original series is replaced by a mildy funny robot that delivers the worst jokes ever (When his head is being dragged along by R2D2, he utters "Oh this is such a drag". Oh dear.) But we also have some brilliant fight sequences in this one, from the car chase in the city at the beginning, to the arena fight, to Yoda's fight debut with Count Dooku, the action comes thick and fast, deliveing an entertaining movie that really gets you into the story of Star Wars.
Entertaining and exciting but still bogged by some of the dialogue and story.

Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005 - George Lucas)
Really really enjoyed this one. I think SinnyMcG sums up my exact feelings on this final episode.
There's something very Star Warsy about this film. It still looks like a prequel but feels like one of the originals, know what I mean? Even though the acting and dialogue is still pretty much the same as in the last two, the story unfolds nicely, the action is pretty good and the film's pretty damn funny in parts.
Some really good action sequences all the way through this one, and the story actually works quite well, as we see the quick rise of the dark side. Darth Sideous is perhaps one of THE best villains, he is so slimy and evil and squeeky, i love him! Plus i found myself wobbling with pleasure during several momets, including Yoda's final fight, and the donning of that infamous black mask. Iv'e written loads more about it in the Episode Three thread. Very cool.

R2-D2 rules!
He so does! This little bot rules the first half of the film. Legend.

Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977 - George Lucas)
I'm pretty sure that i have seen this all the way through before, but i couldn't remember much. I really enjoyed this one, not as good as Episode three i dont think, but thats maybe due to the change in story that i had got used to over my viewing of the first three episodes. The story for this episode was far more easier to follow, and Vaders initial entrance in his suit is brilliant, blasting through the wall. Loved the character of Han Solo and his relationship with Leia (sp?) and Luke. I got a bit confused with Obi Won's character, but im sure ill clear that up as i watch the last two episodes later on. i thoguht the relationship between the characters progressed quite quickly, but then again they have two more films to get to know each other even more so i guess that wont matter by the end. This is a classic and it felt like a classic as i was watching it. Especially the final battle scene as they destroy the death star with Vader following behind in his little ship. Good stuff.
Exciting, and ground-breaking for its time, but not as enthralling as i thought it would be.

Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind - 5/5. This is an amazing animated film, epic in scope and filled with breathtaking imagery. The art has a sligtly European feel, despite that it was made in Japan, and the voice overs (Patrick Stewart, Alison Lohman, Uma Thurman, Shia LeBouf) are superb. If you haven't seen it, you're missing out.

That's not a challenge, just a request, I'd really like to know.

Why are people worried about a movie being up to par? It's a movie. It should be judged against itself and not against what the director, or actors, did before.

I'm not worried about it being up to par. I was simply saying what I had heard from other people, and did not agree with. Then again, when a movie comes out that was made by an established and respected director, it is inevitable that it will be compared to the rest of their work, mostly for the purpose of analyzing the director as far as how they are doing now compared to how good they were in the past. Just like when people analyze athletes by how they are doing now compared to their past performances. BTW I don't mean to talk down to you, or say things already know. Im just giving my opinion on why people do what they do.

That's dumb. Something that's inevitable is like when my hoes hand me mad green when I go to collect my cash, that's inevitable. Comparing one movie to another movie is a choice. A poor one too. Why? Because if the director makes a very crappy-poopy movie their first time out then comes with a semi crappy-poopy movie their second time it doesn't mean the second one was good. It goes both ways. See what I'm saying? I just try to look at a movie for what it is, not for who made what when they were then.

Star Wars : Episode III

Third time, and it just keeps getting to be more fun every time. Also, I still don't see any "horrible" acting in this film, and thought all involved stepped it up a bit. Ok, maybe the "It's because I am so in love" scene is horrible, but it clocks in at about 25 seconds, and the rest of the performances make up for it. McDiarmid was fantastic, and I even though ANikin stepped it up to a good performance. Now, Clones has bad acting...

[John McClane]

Hey Sedai, what did you think of Ewan McGregor? I thought he did a damn good job. :yup:

[Sedai]

I thought he was fantastic, and thought all did a good job except for the mis-cast Portman, and the underused Jackson. Windu's actions played a huge part in Anikins decision to turn, and I loved the subtle way they worked it in, but the normally dominating Jackson just seemed a bit underpowered in his performance. I was all his fault, though ;) Really, I thought Hayden was pretty damn good for the most part, and subsequent viewings haven't made me change my mind. I also though McDiarmid was STELLAR, as I mentioned. So insidious.... mcGregor WAS Kenobi, as far as I am concerned. He nailed a younger Guiness perfectly...

La Vita è bella (Life is Beautiful) (1997 - Roberto Benigni)
Funny, sweet, awful and very sad. Benigni is wonderful in this, directing and acting. His character is amazing, pulling along this progressive story of an Italian-Jewish family caught in the holocaust. The part when he and his son take the tannoy system in the factory and announce their results of the 'game' to his wife is just wonderful. Ahhh.

5

Wonder Boys (2000 - Curtis Hanson)
I really enjoyed this. ust finishing up my uni degree and pondering my life as a writer i found this film really humbling. Perhaps smoking the green doesnt always give you the creativity that many people think...Toby Maguire is brilliant in this as the odd James and Douglas is suprisingly good and likeable as 'stuck' writer Grady. Really good stuff with a crazy story and equally odd characters.

4

Gargen State (2004 - Zach Braff)
From the start its a very charming film. Some really good story telling from Braff here, and he is perfectly odd as numb Andrew. The film really picks up with the introduction of Natalie Portmans character Sam. Portman is totaly adorable in this, i challeneg anyone not too watch it without falling in love with her. A great soundtrack compliments the brillaint cinamatography that follows Largemans story. However, as the film progressed towards the end, i found it started to take the cliche's route, and even though Braff has produced a brilliant film here, for me he still wasnt far enough away from the geeky J.D from Scrubs and i didnt quite feel he had the ability to pull off the intense emotional scenes in the film, and towards the end it all got a bit cheesy. But still a great film none the less that made me feel wonderful, yet lonely after i finished watching.

4

Team America: World Police (2004 - Trey Parker)
Meh. Still not impressed with this. The potential for it was great and it easily could have become another South Park movie, unfortunatly it doesnt deliver the lines. Everytime i watch this i just feel they could have done so much more with it. The story is stupid, but not stupid enough to be funny. The characters are odd, but not odd enough to be funny or likeable. Even the baddy isnt that appealing, although he does get better towards the end. I just found the film grasping hold of crude jokes instead of crude intelligent jokes that we saw in the south park movie. Like the title song of this film, its just saying the F word over and over. Not that funny. However i did find the vomit scene very funny for some reason...
I think the whole satirical thing they have going on is good, but its payed too much focus, the comedy is neglected because of this. However, the way the film looks and its puppetry is amazing, very impressive. Thats about it.

2

Cast Away (2000 - Robert Zemeckis)I adore this film. Theres so many reasons why i like it that i cant name them all. Definatly a film firmly in my top ten favourites of all time. I'm just a total sucker for Zemeckis. I think he is such a brillaint story teller, totally utalising all that cinema can offer. The cinematography of this movie is spectatcular, playing a totally physical role in the exploration of the story of Chuck trapped on his Island. I love how the camera doesnt reveal to us what Chuck slowly discovers on his island by quick edits in the conventional way, but instead it is slowly revealed to us, just as it would be by Chuck as he tries to survive. For example the moment when he's peeing in the sea, as the black waves merge with the stars, all of a sudden we see a hint of light on the horizon that may or may not be a ship. The camera waits for us to make up our own mind, just as Chuck does. The sound comes hand in hand with the cinematography, producing a brilliantly real experience to compliment the naturalist feel to the film. And over all i love the love story between Chuck and Kelly. Both Hanks and Hunt are wonderful as these characters. Even though we get a very small snapshot of their relationship, from the very beginning the intensity of it is obvious, as they dance together to the beat of the printer as Kelly prints her dissertation. Hanks's monologue at the end of the film always brings a lump to my throat. Beautiful movie...

I also though McDiarmid was STELLAR, as I mentioned. So insidious.... mcGregor WAS Kenobi, as far as I am concerned. He nailed a younger Guiness perfectly...

I agree that Portman was miscast. I had a hard time seeing her as a senate member and former queen from a distant planet, especially when I heard tinges of her ordinary jerseygirl character from Garden State in her speech. I also loved McGregor and thought he nailed Obi Wan's anguish and dissapointment perfectly in the aftermath of the battle between he and Anakin.


Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith 5/5

I expected it to be good but not this good! This was one of the best experiences i've ever had at the movies. I surrendered myself completely to the drama and excitment and was on the edge of my seat the whole time. There is little doubt in my mind that this is my favorite Star Wars movie.

[jrs]

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith - 4th Time this evening. It gets better and better and better andd better each time!!! :D

[chicagofrog]

Homegrown, 1998, by Stephen Gyllenhaal and with Billy Bob Thornton

[undercoverlover]

Blade --- can express how much i love ths film. Surprisingly enough wesley snipes, although hes the main character, he doesnt have all that many lines. Wicked cool action sequences and Stephen Dorff is delectable as the evil Deacon Frost intent of a vampiric apocolypse.

[chicagofrog]

A Dangerous Woman, 1993, by Stephen Gyllenhaal again, much, much better than yesterday (Homegrown), and with a great performance by Debra Winger.

Elektra - 2
Why? Why did i do it? Ah, alright, Garner's not bad, and the SFX were pretty good. Nice-n-easy pulp. Good for hangovers ;)


La Strada - Worthiness: 5 - Entertainment: 3
It's Fellini, I probably should've liked it more. It was very well done, and his wife and Quinn were class as the sweet simpleton and the brutish performer. Some decent themes, some harsh realities, and a sprinkling of tragic comedy.

Millionaires Express - 4
For what it is, it's blisteringly good stuff. Feel-good frolics with some unbelievable kung-fu stuntery. Lovely.

Full Metal Jacket - First time seeing this. It's really good, and I will have to watch it again. Is it just me or is there something really off about that film? It is hardly your standard Vietnam/we were soldiers/band of brothers type of war flick....a good deal of it is funny and the dialogue is cutting. Plus, what was with the Mickey Mouse Club theme? It was mind bending, the whole movie, and I would expect that from Stanley Kubrick.

[PimpDaShizzle V2.0]

The Fifth Element :D

Catwoman, oh man. They should have left it at that and "scratched" the whole Halle Berry crap. The Penguin is also pretty hardcore. He bites that dude's nose and didn't even care. And you've got to appreciate it when Bruce Wayne scratches the CD of The Penguin when he's making his speech. Like a super hero DJ. I like this movie.

So, I am wondering. Is there a difference, besides title, between Leon and The Professional, or is it just a regional thing?

My goodness yes, there is a big difference. Léon has about twenty minutes of additional material, deleted for the American release because they feared the audience couldn't take it.

Run, don't walk, and get yourself a copy of Léon ASAP. And the newer R1 SE of the flick has some really fine extra features, including interviews with Reno and Portman.

Hell, that shot Holden posted looks great, and they took it out?? WTF!!! Oh, I suppose there was some lame censor who felt disturbed by the "sexual overtones" in the film between Matilda and Leon, when in fact, it was the censor who wanted to get with the 12 year old kid. So, in order to hide from the fact that they were a some sort of sick pedophile, they cut all the scenes out to take home and watch privately.

I have always liked this on for some reason. It is worth seeing for Kirsten Dunst's performance and Claudia, the tormented child vampire that LeStat sires.

I don't even remember how I got the DVD, it was one of the first DVDs I ever aquired, and might have been a gift.

In the Realms of the Unreal (2005 - Jessica Yu)


Fascinating stranger-than-fiction documentary about Henry Darger, a loner who hardly ever talked to another living soul but upon his death it was discovered in his small room that for much of his life he had been secretly writing and illustrating a 15,000 (fifteen-thousand!) page novel. Only three photos exist of Darger, who was born poor at the end of the 19th century in Chicago. His mother died, his father was destitute, little Henry was believed to be crazy (or at least a troublemaker) and sent to an asylum for slow and broken children. He eventually escaped, walking over a hundred miles back to Chicago, where he took whatever work he could find as dishwasher or janitor and such. Joined the army for World War I though he was never shipped overseas. After the war he returned to Chicago and had a job as janitor until forced to retire, he died in 1973 at the age of eighty-one.

A quiet, withdrawn man who wouldn't carry a conversation with anybody except for minute detail about the weather, he spent most of his free time alone in his small room. His neighbors said he didn't sleep much, and he talked to himself in a variety of voices. Those few people he did have contact with - neighbor, landlord, the Nun who supervised his janitorial duties, were all shocked to see after he died that quiet Henry had amassed tens of thousands of handwritten pages and hundreds of paintings and drawings, many of them ten-feet long and double-sided. His two chief works were an autobiography and perhaps the longest novel ever written, In the Realms of the Unreal, a bizarre epic tale of children fighting their slave masters with the help of angels in a series of massive battles in an imaginary land.

The film juxtaposes readings from Darger's biography with his novel (autobiography voiced by Larry Pine, the novel by Dakota Fanning), sprinkled with brief interviews of those few folks who "knew" him. Truly fascinating. Sad, odd, and fascinating. As his landlady says, if nothing else it's proof of what one can accomplish without the distractions of friends, family or television.

[Piddzilla]

My semester is finally over so after work I do actually have some time to catch up on some of all the movies I've been meaning to see for long now.....

The Pledge (2001 - Sean Penn)

Good film. Jack Nicholson is probably my all time favourite actor and he did a good job in this one too.

I somewhat wish I didn't knew Penn was the director before I started watching it. I caught myself looking for "Penn signs" and "actor-turned-director signs" several times, but I don't know... I think Sean Penn has great potential as a director. The Clint Eastwood of his generation?

I thought about the scene where Nicholson and Wright Penn lose the kid on the flea market and go looking for her. What triggers their search for her is the kid losing her balloon. Was Penn paying homage to Fritz Lang's M (1931)?

[COLOR=Cyan]Stars wars episode 3 revenge of the sith:

ok first of all i am not a great fan of the newer star wars films so i wasnt expecting to be blown away. But i was, by the very first sequence. the star chase was pretty impressive and I the little touches of robot humour that for once weren't coming from c3po, R2D2 had some great momens with the bigger robots on general greivous' ship.

Hayden whatshisnamedid an ok job but just couldnt pull it off for me really. Natalie Portman is beautiful as ever as Padme, the kind souled wife of Anakin Skywalker.

Still loving those cheesy scene wipes Lucas ues but after a while they got on my nerves. Personally I prefer a rubber puppet to a cgi yoda, just made him seem more real.

Some Kind of Monster (2004 - Joe Berlinger & Bruce Sinofsky)

Great fun and here and there actually a bit moving. Boys approaching the forties finally having to deal with the fact that they are grown ups. The additional scenes on disc 2 had some of the best and funniest moments. Like when producer Bob Rock was told he could absolutely not smile on stage in his role as stand-in bass player.

I love "real" music documentaries. Even if this one was planned by the management or whatever it showed the things I'm interested in. Like the process of making the music and what it means to be in a band like Metallica on an emotionally level.

I am so looking forward to the Flaming Lips documentary, Fearless Freaks by Bradley Beesley.

Stigmata (1999, Some Rock Video Director Hack)

1/5

Madonna's Like A Prayer meets The Exorcist with all the tact and subtlety of Ian Paisley bumping into The Pope at the Isle Of Man TT and finding out that, due to a hilarious hotel booking mix-up, they're sharing a room...

A pity, for I like Gabriel Byrne and Patricia Arquette...well I just want to tickle her chin and take her home.

You liked it? Fair enough.

So Stigmata's not about a possession? There isn't an exorcism scene? There isn't a priest with doubts about his Faith (he's also not a normal padre, though this time is a 'scientist-priest' not a 'councellor-priest') sent to 'do a job'? Levitating bodies? etc etc

The only difference is that the spirit in Stigmata is supposedly 'good'.

Now we get to the music video part. Hokey religious imagery in a finale drenched in flame? POVs from statues looking down on their flock? A faux blasphemous ending? (instead of Maddie and 'Jesus' in a clinch we get the priest and his temptress).

Fair enough that we disagree on the film's rating, I respect that, but I thought the above points were a wee bit obvious. :)

[Piddzilla]

Was this your first viewing? Wadda ya think? I love it, such a sad sad film.

Yes, it was my first viewing and I liked it very much. I saw Aronofsky's debut, Pi, a couple of days before I saw Requiem for a Dream. I'm looking forward to following this filmmaker's career.

Wimbledon (2004 - Richard Loncraine)
Urgh. Rubbish Rom-com. Paul Bettany i normally enjoy, but in this it just seems as though someone has told him "just do hugh Grant and you'll do fine!". He's just so terribly British. I was just waiting for him to utter "chocs away!". Boring story thats been done a million times before in a million other sports film and rom-com. Dunst is OK as the yank pro tennis player, nothing spesh. The only redeeming feature about the film is that its heart is in the right place.

Good enough Father/Son type story set against a Mob background. Little Shouty Al plays 'world weary' to the hilt (can he play any other part thesedays?), Madsen is quietly scary (plus ca change ;) ) and Depp is convincing without having to, in my eyes anyway, dig too deep.

Great coats though. :D

Batman Begins (2005 - Christopher Nolan)

Meets and exceeds all expectations. This is the Batman movie everybody has been avoiding making for decades. It's dark, it's smart, it never lets up and it's one Hell of a ride. Easily the best "superhero" movie ever made. Nolan should be proud of this work, and maybe, just maybe, it'll finally prove to the suits and moneymen in Hollywood that you need not pander to the audience, water it down for the masses or have every millimeter of celluloid be overly kid-friendly and product tie-in-ready. This is a terrific movie, it'll make a sh!tload of money, and it'll inspire legions of fans hungry for more of this kind of entertainment, young and old alike. The last couple lines with the Katie Holmes character ring a little forced and silly, but one minute of over two hours of near-perfection need not be quibbled about. See it early, see it often. Batman Begins...and we'll all be back for more.

GRADE: A-

Meanwhile:

Back to the Future Part III - You know, this was better than I remember it being. The Doc Brown character is just such a wonderful character in all three films, but really shines in this one. Also, some genuine comedy moments, a Scorsese homage, and the Clint Eastwood stuff is great...

Everybody everywhere will say, "Clint Eastwood is the biggest yellow belly in the west."

After everything I had heard/read about it, I was really looking forward to watching it... but it just didn't do it for me... :nope:That reminds me of when Jurassic Park first came out. I went with my brother expecting a mellow, and pretty, Disney type flick. We were both blown away. The next day I took my lady to see it...she was blown away. My best friend waited weeks, watched all the hype, saw all the commercials, and was completely underwhelmed. I don't know if that's the case with you...we can't all enjoy the same thing all the time, but that's what it reminds me of anyway. That's why I like to see movies before I'm saturated with promo's and talk.

[Tacitus]

It's out on DVD here any day now and I'm definately gonna watch The Aviator again. The film just didn't click with me in the cinema, personally it's nearer the bottom than the top of Marty's ladder though I wasn't underwhelmed because it was a Scorsese flick (if you see what I mean).

Good performances yes, DiCaprio's strongest for me, but nothing standout. Beautifully shot yes, but nothing revelatory. As for the story...well it told me nothing more than Gerber's The Bashful Billionaire - and I read that 15 years ago.

3/5 (just about) Not disappointing as I truely wasn't expecting a whole lot more.

Maybe the scales will be lifted from my eyes when I rent it. Wanna bet? :)

I really don't think that was the case... most of what I had heard followed along the lines of "Leo nailed Howard" or "Cate became Katherine" ... and most of what I read were comments made on MoFo... I'm going to wait a while and give it another look and will let you know if I find it less boring the 2nd time around... :)

In my case it's the opposite. I will see The Aviator soon probably, but I am not looking forward too it very much. Watching the trailers and seeing clips of it does not make me excited one bit. Then again, I hear a lot of good things about it - and some not so good as well, I'll have to add. I have to admit, a part of me wants it to be bad in some weird way. I hated Bringing Out the Dead and I didn't care too much for Gangs of New York. I guess I want to proclaim Martin Scorsese officially over the hill, doing everything in his power to make a film that will appeal to the Academy, so I can then go on with my life.

I agree with you, Slay. It's best to see a film before having read lots of reviews and hearing all the talk about it. Then again, there is always the hype when a pic by Scorsese is released and it can be hard to not be caught by it in some way. And I rarely have time to see films during the opening week, plus I live in Sweden = opening week is like 2½ years after opening week in America (well, almost...). So I mostly watch these big BIG pictures a long time after people stopped talking about them.

Meanwhile...

I Hired a Contract Killer (1990 - Aki Kaurismäki)

Not fantastic like the masterpiece The Man Without a Past but worth watching. It's only 70 mins long, which is typical for Kaurismäki - short, minimalistic and packed. The soundtrack is good too; lots of music by the late great Joe Strummer who actually is in the film playing a number called "Burning Light" in some bar.

[Tacitus]

Strummer was an underrated actor, in my opinion...

Fantastic avatar btw Pid. :D

Strummer isn't acting in the film, really. But he is performing a song live (I think) and it sounds great. It's him, his ragged guitar and a guy on congas in a sleazy bar. Great stuff!

I only saw him once, playing with The Pogues after they kicked Shane out. They'd all seen better days. Shame...

Shane's seen better days too. He's become the new dog in a pub near me :yup: (Well, he lives there y'see. Plus, he howls whenever a band drops in to play, nobody dares pat him as he wanders randomly about the place, and you can't escape the feeling that -behind those impenetrable shades- there lies a plea for a saucer of something. Or two)

[Tacitus]

Not bad for an ex-Public Schoolboy. ;)

I'll drag the thread even further into off-topic Poguetry by declaring that their gig at The King's Hall, Belfast, Christmas '87 is my all-time favourite. Still got the t-shirt, though any thoughts of fitting into it thesedays prompt mild bouts of depression...

Sin City ---- After months of eagerly awaiting its release I have finally seen Sin City. I think i waited a little too eagerly, i built up a lot of hype about the film to myself and in doing so disappointed myself.Although overall it was a great film i have some gripes with it. The flow of the film felt clumpy and plots didnt interweave as they could have. Some of the lines felt way too cheesy (Dwight---and why in the middle of this very stylish film was he wearing red converse trainers?).

In place of clever twists and good dialogue there was jus blood and gore. I have no problem with voilence in film but in this particular one there was just blood and hands coming off and people getting slashed everywhich way possible. I did however love Hartigan and Nancy's story though i would have liked to see more of the romantic vibe between them and i was disappointed about how that story ended.

Ive never been so freaked out as i was by Kevin, you know what i mean......


(and that was frank miller playing the priest wasn't it?)

[Pyro Tramp]

Tetsuo: The Iron Man
4/5

Crazy 65 minutes of film, filmed in B&W, using insane editing, close ups and stop motion to show a tale of Cronenberg-esque body horror. A metal fetishest insert a pole into his leg, which becomes maggot ridden, running around, he then gets run over by a salesman. What follows is both men slowly becoming metal beings, and ultimately merging together. It plays like a nightmare and has surreal sexual imagery, which is often rather amusing, as well as sickening. Insane 65 minutes of excellently constructed techno horror.

[chicagofrog]

Where The Heart Is, 2000, some nice moments, and i'll have seen almost all movies with Natalie Portman now.

Dustin Hoffman and Gene Hackman work together for the first time in this movie and it has a good outcome. Well written and well executed, i liked it very much.

Rocky HorrorShow ---- Now i love musicals i really do but this oe had me rolling on the floor laughing i thought it was hilarious. I don't think the words of the songs quite fitted the movie and they arent that catchy with a few exceptions. I did really like this film though, and call me wrong but Tim Curry - strangely hot....
