| (500) Days of Summer - PG-13 |
Mrs Claudia PuigI, writing to USA Today*, says that "much like Annie Hall did for a previous generation, (500) Days of Summer may be the movie that best captures a contemporary romantic sensibility".
I´m speechless. In a bad way. "(500) Days of Summer" is like any other bad romantic comedy, even warning to be a story about love and not a love story. But actually, all the love stories end up being stories about love, don´t they? The only good point about this movie is that you discover you won´t die for someone because after a season, there´s always another one. Well, we hope so! * the expectation vs reality scene is not that original. ** it was obvious that the independent girl would become a "wife type girl"; *** the smart little sister is too over (=common); **** the end is really over the top! |

| The Death of Mr. Lazarescu (Moartea domnului Lazarescu) - R |
The cover is great (to a cat lover like me), the last "Romanian new wave" movies I saw were pretty good and this one got many awards.
Hum... so, what went wrong? Bad mood, maybe? I really tried to watch it, but after half hour, I found myself fast-fowarding it to the end. It´s not even fair to rate it. |

| Clean - R |
Impossible not to think about Kurt and Courtney, even if inspite of choosing to bring up a "glamourous" drug and rock n´roll world (or the typical approach of junkies trying to clean up), the movie focus on a woman trying to change her life and to get her son back.
Another interesting point is that it´s not really a sweet movie about mother and son knowing each other and getting close. Emily is not likeable and she´s not even sure if she wants to settle down. However, it´s more to a "typical" drama movie than any other Olivier Assayas´s movies (I´ve seen) where "nothing really happens". |
