Black Death review

Posted : 1 month ago on 24 December 2011 10:41 (A review of Black Death)

Until the middle of the movie I thought the script had a lot of potential, nonetheless it turned into something very predictable and uninteresting.

Loved the way how this movie perversely showed the medieval christians ways against "evil" being used against themselves. The photography was very beautiful as well and the way the camera moves during combat is very smart, nonetheless, I'm not sure if it is always like that but it really called my attention.
Anyway, the ending made the movie a little better again but didn't save it.

About Schmidt review

How not to love Jack Nicholson?
Such a real lovable and flawed character, facing real questionings about life.

3-Iron review

i knew it was going to be beautiful for what I've had seen on trailers, nonetheless the photography still surprised me, it's really mesmerizing! The plot is unconventional and it knew when to stop. Loved it so much. :)

The Iron Giant review

Nope, not good.
The same giant: Laputa
The same story: Transformers

it's just a bad combination of both...

the animation was well done though.

50/50 review

Posted : 1 month, 1 week ago on 22 December 2011 03:38 (A review of 50/50)

Everyone was sobbing! It was beautiful to hear/feel/cry.
The story is pretty simple but the acting is amazing... even though Joseph is amazing and Seth is a great side kick, for me, it was Serge Houde that made the movie really worth it :)

It's not as bad as the media said!

Watership Down review

Posted : 1 month, 1 week ago on 19 December 2011 06:34 (A review of Watership Down)

Watching this, I realized that when I was a kid I used to watch so much more real gruesome stuff then nowadays. This movie actually shocked me and in the end I realized how overly protective we've become.
The story remind me of a much happier animation that had such a "adult" perspective of animals and their society.

Midnight in Paris review

Posted : 1 month, 3 weeks ago on 7 December 2011 12:37 (A review of Midnight in Paris)

I really enjoy Woody's movies more when he is just directing, even though Owen personified Woody's typical character, I feel more confortable without the real Woody on screen (he really makes me anxious with his anxious New York stereotypical).
Loved the script and the homage to so many wonderful artists from the past and present that he made, nonetheless it didn't "wowed" me. :/
Maybe I was just expecting too much from this one.

Out of Sight review

Posted : 1 month, 3 weeks ago on 7 December 2011 12:40 (A review of Out of Sight)

Well, what could go wrong with Soderberg, Clooney and J.Lo?
It is already dated, it wasn't their best performance or the best script (I still don't believe in the couple). However, form me the half end made worthwhile the whole movie.

OH YEAH.. couldn't believe on Don Cheadle's character. Crazy! HE is worthwhile the movie!
