“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.

“The Talented Mr. Ripley” Movie Review
“The Talented Mr. Ripley” Plot Summary
In late 1950’s New York, Tom Ripley, a young underachiever, is sent to Europe to retrieve a rich and spoiled millionaire playboy, named Dickie Greenleaf. But when the errand fails, Ripley takes extreme measures.
Elegant, literary thriller
THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY Aspect ratio: 1.85:1Sound formats: Dolby Digital / DTSWhilst in Italy, a young American chancer (Matt Damon) assumes the identity of a wealthy playboy (Jude Law) with whom he’s become emotionally obsessed, leading to murder and betrayal on a grand scale
Elegant, literary thriller based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith (the subject of an earlier adaptation, PLEIN SOLEIL, in 1960), in which sociopathic anti-hero Tom Ripley (Damon) cheats, steals and murders his way to a position of huge good fortune, leaving a trail of devastation in his wake. Set against the backdrop of tourist Italy – encompassing Rome and Venice and all points in between – Anthony Minghella’s film is a compelling treat from start to finish, layering detail upon detail as Damon’s friendship with Law blossoms and sours, leading to an inevitable plot twist which introduces a whole new set of complications for the central characters, rendering the audience complicit in Ripley’s escalating crime wave
Damon may seem a little too young and unworldly for such a complex character, but he judges the role with great sensitivity, especially in those scenes where (overtly or otherwise) he indicates a sexual attraction to Law which goes unreciprocated (or does it?), until the characters are driven apart by jealousy, bitterness and – ultimately – violence. His fantasies shattered by harsh reality, Damon finds solace in the arms of a mutual acquaintance (Jack Davenport), the only person capable of taking Law’s place in Damon’s affections, only for their chance of happiness to be snatched away by a cruel trick of fate. Terrific, Oscar-caliber support by Gwyneth Paltrow and Philip Seymour Hoffman (as Law’s fiancee and best friend, respectively); beautiful, classy production values throughout. Followed by RIPLEY’S GAME (2002).

“The Darjeeling Limited” Movie Review
“The Darjeeling Limited” Plot Summary
Three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other — to become brothers again like they used to be. Their “spiritual quest”, however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray), and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases, a printer, and a laminating machine. At this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins. add synopsis
An interesting journey
The Darjeeling Limited follows three brothers on a train journey across India. Suffice to say that in the course of their journey they will be faced with some complications. Things most definitely do not go according to the original plan. And it is in those times where the trip veers off its intended course that the movie is at its best. It’s not really a comedy but the film certainly has some nice comedic moments. There are some good dramatic moments but I don’t think one would label the film a great drama. It’s a journey which more often than not is certainly interesting but which in the end leaves you wanting a little more. For all the great moments, and there are more than a few, it doesn’t quite all add up to a spectacular finished product. It’s a good movie which you feel could have been great but fell a little shy of that standard
Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman play the three Whitman brothers who having not seen one another for a year are now embarking on what Francis, the oldest of the brothers, intends to be a spiritual journey. Francis is obsessive-compulsive to the extreme and his brothers often find him to be more than a touch annoying. But, as played wonderfully by Wilson, Francis comes across as rather endearing. Annoying yes but in an endearing way. The fact that he goes through the whole movie with his head and face heavily bandaged due to a motorcycle accident probably doesn’t hurt in making Francis a sympathetic figure. Brody’s Peter and Schwartzman’s Jack do not immediately appear to have as many obvious quirks as Francis, seeming to be much more ‘normal’. But we will see that Peter and Jack certainly have their own issues to deal with as well. And while if you had to choose one Wilson would be the star of the show both Brody and Schwartzman do excellent work as well
When the journey inevitably veers from its spiritual course is when the movie shines. Seeing the way these three very unique individuals react to one another in trying circumstances is a treat. Some of these moments are wonderfully comedic while other moments are appropriately solemn and serious. This is a train ride full of surprises which allow the brothers to learn a great deal about themselves and in the end maybe about each other. The film does wander at times. For all the good moments there are other times where the film struggles to maintain momentum. And really there isn’t much of a plot to speak of. But while it may be a relatively simple story it is generally an enjoyable one. It must be said that director Wes Anderson has crafted a film which certainly looks amazing. Whether it be the wonderful Indian exteriors or the brilliantly vibrant interiors of the train itself the film always looks terrific. And the three lead actors do the visuals justice, giving excellent performances in bringing this charming story to life. It’s not a perfect film by any means. It’s a movie you’ll embrace more for its moments than for the final product as a whole. There is the nagging sense that it didn’t quite all come together. But all in all the movie works. You could do a lot worse than to take a ride on The Darjeeling Limited.

“True Romance” Movie Review
“True Romance” Plot Summary
Clarence marries hooker Alabama, steals cocaine from her pimp, and tries to sell it in Hollywood, while the owners of the coke try to reclaim it. add synopsis
This really is the ultimate Quentin Tarantino movie.
True Romance. Tarantino’s first, and ironically enough most original, movie. Though directed by Tony Scott (Top Gun, Enemy of the State) the film remains very faithful to Tarantino’s original conception. With the exception of the ending and the trademark Tarantino non-linear storytelling being taken out. There are oh so many things in this movie that Tarantino’s later works reference to that it’s like a Tarantino fan boy treat! Which I am not anymore. But during my one year time as a fan boy I did read the script of this movie and this was before I even saw the movie. So this being so very faithful to the script you can imagine how psyched i was seeing this movie. I was not disappointed
The movie starts off in not so sunny Detroit with our anti-hero Clarence. Clarence lives a very lonely life with comic books, Kung Fu movies and Elvis as his greatest passions. But one day a woman named Alabama comes into his life. They fall in love instantly and armed with a 38 caliber revolver, a suitcase full of cocaine and most of all love, they set off to sunny Hollywood to try to sell it off and live happily ever after
Many people brand this movie as a narcissistic teenage boy’s wet dream. Well it’s not. This is supposed to be a fairy tale and it so is. I mean he’s a film geek and she’s a hot girl. Well it turns out this hot girl likes movies and comics to so they get married. That’s every man’s dream. Tarantino didn’t set out to make a fairy tale when he wrote it but the changes that Tony Scott made (as small as they were) really changed the theme of the movie and made it lighter and more like a fairy tale. Personally I would have really liked to see what the movie would have been like if Tarantino had directed it
This is one of those movies which has a wonderful cast. First there’s Christian Slater (….well…True Romance) who plays the character of Clarence very good. Had this been directed by Tarantino in the early nineties the part would have been played by Tarantino himself. Slater plays it with a certain style and this really is his best film ever. I wonder why he doesn’t get better parts in movies. Then there’s Dennis Hopper (Land of the Dead, Speed) who plays his father in a couple of scenes. The whole movie is worth watching just for him. Gary Oldman (Leon, Lost in Space) plays a very cool role as Drexl the pimp. Good old Gary. Christopher Walken has a small role and plays it very calm and cool. Michael Rapaport, (Friends) who we all know from Friends and Deep Blue Sea, Plays struggling actor Dick Richie and gives a solid performance. And last but most certainly not least there’s Chris Penn (rest in peace) as Detective Nicky Dimes. He plays the part with such coolness and style and the film would not be what it is if he weren’t in it.’People have asked me: ‘So would you ever do a romance movie?’ like that’s not what I would do. ‘Well, I did a romantic movie, True Romance.’ ‘No, no, I mean like a real romantic movie.’ ‘Well that is a real romantic movie.’ ‘No, like one without violence?’ ‘Well there’ll be a lot of things in any movie I do that will be contradictory, but anybody who’s a fan of the movie can tell you, the title – True Romance – is not ironic…this is true romance.” – Quentin Tarantino.

Enjoyable
I’m always up for a good ghost story, and this i found worth the time and effort of watching
Mike Fox was very good. One of his best performances, i thought. A good solid adult role playing a shuckster making not-your-normal living. The character definitely had one of the stranger ways of paying-the-bills in moviedom
And Combs was a hoot and a half. Think Dr. Herbert West if the wacky doctor had gone into law enforcement instead of reanimating bodies
Busey did a very nice job of being the homicidal maniac. He left no doubt that his character was a total nutcase
Usually i’m not so impressed by movies being shot in New Zealand as for some reason, tackiness is sometimes an unintended result. But for this movie, the New Zealand location worked very well
I liked the art design on the movie case. It fit the movie to a tee
Actually worth watching? Sure. It’s a good story told with good production values and good performances by the actors. It’s one of my favorites and i have my own personal copy which i pull out and have fun re-watching every once in a while.

“The Number 23″ Plot Summary
Walter Sparrow becomes obsessed with a novel that he believes was written about him. As his obsession increases, more and more similarities seem to arise.
Better than i expected
Before watching ‘The Number 23′ i saw and heard only bad criticism about this movie. So my expectations before watching it fell from fairly high to solid medium, and in the end this movie exceeded my expectations, not by much but it still did. I liked the first two chapters of the movie and i thought third was the worst and most lame. I am sure many other viewers agree with me on this, i mean whoever wrote the story for this movie obviously has some personal inner demons, cause he or she denied us from getting a better, more exciting and thrilling ending from this movie. Either way, i still think this movie is overall enjoyable, original and interesting. Those film-noir sequences that are shown as Jim Carrey reads the book are great, probably the best, most stylish and entertaining parts of this film, the film makers should have really made more of those and i’m sure the audience would be more pleased at the end. Anyhow, whoever tells you this movie is unwatchable and boring waste of time, don’t listen to them, just give it a chance and go see it, i did and i didn’t come out disappointed at all.8/10

“Bringing Out the Dead” Movie Review
“Bringing Out the Dead” Plot Summary
Frank Pierce is a paramedic working Gotham’s Hell’s Kitchen. He’s become burned out and haunted by visions of the people he’s tried to save. add synopsis
Good once it finds its rhythm
After reading the novel by Joe Connelly this movie is based on(by the way, the title is a reference to MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL), it seemed a perfect fit for director Martin Scorsese, writer Paul Schraeder, and star Nicolas Cage. After all, this is the mean streets of New York, this is about trying to find salvation and redemption in the pits of despair, and it features a character on the edge. But when things start out, I was disappointed. It seems like all three of them, Scorsese, Schraeder, and Cage, were straining to get the effect of the novel, and it felt disjointed. The narration by Cage seems to be covering up for what’s not being shown, which always means trouble
In lesser hands, this might have been a problem. However, Scorsese has the craft to match his passion, and he soon finds the rhythm. The narration is used less and less as the movie goes on, and Cage is gradually able to show his grief, rather than just talk about it. We still don’t feel the impact of the story as much as we do in the novel, but we do feel something, thanks to Cage and Patricia Arquette(as the daughter of a patient he saves). Once it gets going, the black humor, courtesy of Ving Rhames and Tom Sizemore as fellow paramedics and Scorsese and Queen Latifah as dispatchers, helps fuel the picture as well. This isn’t quite as good as Scorsese’s other New York stories, but it is a worthy addition to his canon.

“Ed Wood” Plot Summary
The mostly true story of the legendary director of awful movies and his strange group of friends and actors.
One of My Top 3 Favorite Films
What more could you want from a movie. Tim Burton is my favorite director and Johnny Depp is my favorite actor. Martin Landau is brilliant as Bela ‘Pull the String! Pull the String!’. I watch this movie over and over finding new things each time. I can’t wait till the DVD comes to America. If you like this movie I’d recommend any of Tim Burton’s other films and the Peter Bogdonavich film ‘Paper Moon’, which is also in black and white.
