“Frida” Movie Review
“Frida” Plot Summary
A biography of artist Frida Kahlo, who channeled the pain of a crippling injury and her tempestuous marriage into her work. add synopsis
Incredible eyebrow woman
Throughout the entire film I was unable to avert my gaze from the bushy forehead of the amazing ‘woman with one eyebrow’ – and nowhere on the net can I find a photograph of Frida Kahlo with such an impressive hedgerow plastered across her face. Why it was felt necessary to portray her thus, is a mystery to me. It may seem trivial, but it really did detract from what is essentially an immense performance
Hayek excels, and definitely makes the movie more palatable for mainstream audiences who may not be interested in the social and artistic merits of what is an important historical era. She is ably assisted by the talented Molina, and the beautiful sets and photography are a fitting tribute to the story of one quite amazing woman
So even if you think art is bunkum and history is naff, I think you will enjoy this sad but uplifting tale of a beautiful, spirited and unforgettable woman. Surely a must-see for any cinema buff.

“Terminal” Movie Review
“Terminal” Plot Summary
An eastern immigrant finds himself stranded in JFK airport, and must take up temporary residence there.
A charming and fun movie
The Terminal follows ‘Viktor Navorski, a man from an Eastern European country who flies to New York for a holiday. Upon his arrival, he is told that a war broke out in his country whilst he was in the air, and his government has been overthrown; because of that, Navorski is a man without a country that the U.S. can recognize, thus he is denied entrance to the United States. However, he also can’t be deported until his status can be fixed. Additionally, Navorski barely speaks a word of English, so no one can talk to him and he can’t talk to anyone else.
‘But he somehow adapts and sets up residence in the airport, which makes the man who placed him there unhappy – it seems he is line for a promotion but Navroski’s presence might complicate that. So he tries to get Navorski to leave, but instead the stranded passenger remains where he is.’ The film follows Navorski as he tries to survive in the airport and make it is home, as well as documenting all the people he meets along the way.
Steven Spielberg is doesn’t typically direct films like The Terminal, which closely resembles a romantic-comedy drama – the keyword there being ROMANTIC. Out of his vast and celebrated filmography, there are very little films that pertain to the romance genre. Hence, The Terminal was somewhat of a gamble on the director’s part, and it undoubtedly drew cynicism and scepticism from the public on whether he could pull it off.
And the result: The Terminal is a success. The film is an enjoyable blend of the three aforesaid genres, and is a delight to watch. Amidst the typical Spielberg epics that have propelled him into the English lexicon (e.g. Schindler’s List, Saving Private Ryan, Jaws), The Terminal is a breath of fresh air. Not to say that his other films are bad, it’s just refreshing to experience something new from the experienced director.
However, I couldn’t help but notice the emptiness of the film; yes, it’s very entertaining and a treat to watch, but overall the film didn’t do much for me. In the end in fact, I found the film to be quite pointless, and not a film that was thought-provoking at all. I realised that Spielberg’s films usually have a profound effect on its viewers, even long after the movie has ended. The Terminal, in all its delight and appeal, failed to do this at all. I was rather annoyed, hence the feeling of emptiness.
Then I realised that The Terminal is not like the director’s other films, and is a venture into the unknown. Spielberg didn’t want the film to be though-provoking, and just wanted it to be movie to entertain people, and nothing more. After this epiphany, I realised that despite being annoyed by the void of emptiness, it wouldn’t be fair to give this film a negative review. After all, it achieved its goal, am I right? This is probably why the film got mixed reviews from critics and audiences; they were expecting Steven Spielberg to astound us an amazing story of bravery, courage, survival and brotherhood, or a riveting biographical film, or a dystopian, post-apocalyptic thriller to keep us on the edge of our seats. They anticipated the wrong thing, and that’s why they didn’t like it.
Being a romantic-comedy-drama, The Terminal didn’t want us to experience the brutality of war, nor did it want to educate us on 19th Century history. It simply set out to entertain us, and keep us enthralled for two hours. Did it do that? Yes, and exceptionally well if I may add. Don’t get me wrong – despite being an atypical Spielberg movie, it still shows the traits of a master sitting in the director’s chair. The Terminal is an excellently made film that is one of the smartest, and most enjoyable romantic-comedies I’ve seen, no doubt about it.
