“The Ninth Gate” Movie Review
“The Ninth Gate” Plot Summary
A rare book dealer, while seeking out the last two copies of a demon text, gets drawn into a conspiracy with supernatural overtones.
Best Polanski in years…
Granted, I’m slightly biased since I happen to love Mr. Polanski’s work, but this film was really good. It kind of built in a slow, very menacing way and had an intelligent plot, only fully concluded until you’re out of the cinema. As usual with the demanding master, the performances are first class, specially Langella and Depp. Here comes a brief summary of the highlights in my opinion:Brilliant cinematography by the talented Darius Khondji (of Se7en fame).
The most original title sequence I’ve seen this side of Bond
Also listen closely to Wojchiech Kilars (of Dracula fame) absolutely brilliant score. So light, and yet so heavy and menacing. Very un-Hollywood
It definetly puts Polanski back into the game again. Now if they’d only let him back into the states so we could geta new Chinatown…..

“Chocolat” Movie Review
“Chocolat” Plot Summary
A woman and her daughter open a chocolate shop in a small French village that shakes up the rigid morality of the community. add synopsis
wonderful movie :)
First I borrowed this movie from videostore And loved it so much that soon I bought the DVD so I could watch it again. That’s how much i love it. I truly regret not watching it, while it was in the cinemas, it would have been great to see it on the big screen. This movie has everything: humanity, love, magic (and gorgeous cinematography), comedy, sadness, great acting. There is depth and strength to the characters in the movie. The costumes and special effects are great too. I loved the acting and how all these story lines were woven into a beautiful, delightful fable. This movie has got the heart. The music is beautiful too, it is so enchanting. It is so wonderful and bittersweet, like chocolate for the soul :) I strongly recommend it

“The Departed” Movie Review
“The Departed” Plot Summary
Two men from opposite sides of the law are undercover within the Massachusetts State Police and the Irish mafia, but violence and bloodshed boil when discoveries are made, and the moles are dispatched to find out their enemy’s identities.
Exciting, writhing mole thriller
An enjoyable, pacy film. It’s let down a bit with rather rudimentary, unlovely filming and a Michael Mann-like unintelligibility in the way in which the script is delivered
But the performances are worth the price of a theatre ticket alone. Leonardo diCaprio is excellent, the equal of a striking Jack Nicholson. Ray Winstone’s accent is rubbish, but the rest of his performance is as good as the best. Matt Damon, Martin Sheen and (‘newcomer’) Vera Farmiga bring up a good seond tier of support acts… but Mark Wahlberg’s performance is as bad as his hair piece (yes, hair piece).
It’s also a peculiarly edited film. Sequences even as short as a few seconds can be made up of many different shots. Scorsese grafts the whole together with a carefully selected and dovetailed soundtrack. It’s a very fluid, even slippery way of pulling the film together, but it lends itself to the duplicitousness of characters and film alike. 7/10
