Cloverfield
PG-13
it's pretty good, kinda a cross between The Day After Tomorrow and Alien with the filming of the Blair Witch project (only with special effects!). oh yeah....and Godzilla...i guess....kinda. and War of the Worlds. it's a rip off :P. leasha likes. whoa, is this the first horror film where the african american outlives the caucasian main characters? go team!
Fool's Gold (Fools Gold)
PG-13
it was kinda hard to follow the history of the treasure story but maybe it was because i kept wondering "how long did he work out to get that body" or "i wonder if matthew mcconaughey always glows like a greek god" mmmmmm maybe i should see it again...and again and this time ill try not to growl mid movie loud enough for the 3 rows around me to get a little freaked

Contact
PG
everytime i watch this movie something you never even caught before makes you go "oh wow thats clever!" i can't think of a better written, acted, or better visiual effects for a movie than this. and those of you who who think that the '18 hours' bit at the end ruinedit....forget about the fact that it sways your decision, its genius and it tied the whole movie together when they question her in the courtroom, the last half hour is needed for the film.

i don't watch movies for their realism. i don't view them in a self respective way, or judge the plots' plausibility based on my own experiences. you shouldn't have to warn people to have an open mind about a film because it should open it for you. a gateway really so you can experience new and exciting magical feeling precariously through the character, but yes to open that gateway, you need to recognize that there is a gate there....cue realistic plot. some might view the thought of an 11 year orphan child growing up in a boys camp would have such an optimistic view on life that he would whimsicaly leave his only home at night becuase the moon told him to, and that if he followed his heart and what he truly loved he would find his happy ending, as in all fairytales as impossible. but why not? is it so far fetched that people can be so happy and reach their goals when dealt such a misleading hand? i just think it's a waste for the movie goers who are so doubtful that love can last and people can still be heartbroken and longing for more than 5 years. it's beautiful that a young boy growing up in such a deprived environment can experience such magic and wonder and truly feel it. but the writers just didn't pick an 11 year old boy to have such drive and faith becuase somebody thought it was thier lucky number, it seems at age 10 little boys seem to question santa clause, and adventures with tonka trucks and pirate ships and it just seems to fade out of them. that imagination turns into the best way to defeat the aliens in HALO becuase in real life there is no room for that magic. by having a more worldy knowledgable character that knows wha t it's like to be down and told by others your different and freaky that made it through this barrier is just trying to hint to the audience to do the same, whats wrong with letting yourself get wrapped in the music and the unlikelyness of them all being united at once? it's not impossible, and as chick flicky as you think this movie is i think it's magnificant how they mixed the childhood vision and happiness of peter pan, oliver twist, orphan annie, a little princess and a love story between adults who never let go of the little thing that kept them tied to the magic into such a colourful treat to the eyes and ears.

Peter Pan
PG
oh gosh i know it might be illegal but jeremy sumpter....mmmm mmm!! i've only seen jason isaacs in 2 movies and his preformance in both is excellent. the acting, plot and dialog in this movie places it in my top 50 (and oh the goosebumps you get when wendy and peter are dancing in the forest with the fairies :P)

To Kill A Mockingbird
Unrated
i seriously loved this book so im a little bias, but this is quite possibly the best life lesson one can aquire except "Well, I -- I think that it -- that it wasn't enough just to want to see Uncle Henry and Auntie Em -- and it's that -- if I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own backyard. Because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with!" teehee. oh but what ever happened to the cute little actress who played scout? well done (especially you gregory peck and your cunning hotness) even tho like 1/4 of the book wasn't in it.

Menace II Society
by JohnI have to admit watching the excellent Menace 2 Society that I kind of feel like a loser. The Hughes Brothers were 20 when they made this powerful directorial debut. (What the hell happened to them?)
I just want to say right now though please don't call this a "hood" classic. It's a term that came from rich suburbanites who use the term to belittle the work of talented black filmmakers. Plan and simple Menace 2 Society is a great film with strong performances from Jada Pickett Smith, Larenz Tate and Tyrin Turner. The powerful and forceful but never preachy story of the dangers of the gangster lifestyle is one that you won't forget anytime soon.Know a lot of people have it under not interested but give it a chance.

My Blueberry Nights
by JohnLets make this clear My Blueberry Nights is sadly isn't the cinematic masterpiece anyone who loves Wong Kar Wai wanted but My Blueberry Nights is still a very good film.
Well first off the idea of Wong Kai Wai directing Meet The Spartans would have gotten me excited. He does a wonderful job directing the film turning it into visual poetry despite replacing Christopher Doyle. The acting is strong throughout the entire cast including my future soulmate Natalie Portman proving everything I love about her talent in this film and the always terrific David Stratharin in his heartbreaking role (The Dude needs more leading roles).
Now it's that fact that's one of the problems with this film. I'm a big Norah Jones fan and she does a good job with her debut but I felt that she was better suited for a more of a supporting role and someone like Portman or Rachel Weisz should have taken over the lead because they could have brought so much more with it. As well the thing that caused the biggest problem was the script. No it isn't Leatherheads bad but considering how brilliant Chucking Express, Happy Together, In The Mood For Love and 2046 are you would have hoped for Wai Wong to have started his international film career with a bang.
Although as a movie itself it's very difficult to complain too much about (The ending is all types of perfect in my opinion.) but overall it's a very minor look for American audiences at the great things that should come from Wong Kai Wai in the future.Pretty minor Kai Wai Wong but still higher then anything I've ever given Michael Bay.

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
by sarahYet another great collbration of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp that is set to be a classic!!! Great acting and directing as you have come to expect from the pair. Helena Bonham Carter really brings Mrs Lovett to life and a perfectly casted supporting cast makes sure that his is a hit!!!

Gates of Heaven
by JohnIt's difficult to give a proper review to Gates of Heaven because there's so much that's great about the film that you can't really explain it. So I'll say 2 things.
1. If you don't get the subject matter of the film and why it's affective you have a heart of stone.
2. This is the film so great that Werner Herzog ate his shoe because of it's greatness.
So just see this wonderful film and hopefully you'll understand.Hey, you should really see this!

Stop Loss
by JohnAfter a year of crappy movies about Iraq lecturing us how bad war is, Stop-Loss ends up becoming the best of the Iraq films because it simply doesn't give a f*ck about the politics and instead focuses on the soldiers who are fighting this war.
It's been 9 long years since Kimberly Peirce has made Boys Don't Cry but Stop-Loss is proof that she hasn't lost her edge, heart or focus she had since her first masterpiece.
It's really an accomplishment and a tribute to how talented a filmmaker Pierce is. Without her this wouldn't have worked at all. It's her and her cast's passion and care for the subject that gives the film it's grieving heart. Ryan Phillippe finally escapes his pretty boy image and gives a performance of surprising power. Channing Tatum proves to be more then a pretty boy actor and shows that if he makes the right choices he can have a really great career. Though the best performance comes from Abbie Cornish and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Cornish delivers a breakout performance that doesn't provide a single bit of hollywood glitter and gives a complex performance that's rare in war movies for women. As for Gordon-Levitt? Wake the f*ck up, this guy is clearly one of the greatest actors of our generation and is perfectly cast here. His last scene in the film will stay with you for days.
So is the film perfect? Not really. The film slips into melodrama a bit too much for my liking and there really isn't much of an ending to this film. (Though that kind of works cause it doesn't bother to provide a end to a war that doesn't seem to end soon.)
Stop-Loss may not quite be the war masterpiece our generation need yet (Something tells me the film will age pretty well.) But with Stop-Loss and Boys Don't Cry Peirce has proven herself to be one of the bravest filmmakers right now. (Ironic how one of the few working female filmmakers in Hollywood is also one of the ballsiest huh?)Here's something rare, a film about Iraq that doesn't suck.

ha ha ha yeah it was pretty traumatizing, but in a very good way. i seriously rewatched that film like every week or second week on that IFC tape for months :P
Sound of....Music....if only i could turn back time and not show you Requiem! surely it's not worth the torture of Julie Andrews singing on a hilltop! yeah sure, whatever. next time we're both free we'll order in some pizza and force me to endure Christopher Plummer before his face looked like velcro.
sorry i couldn't see ya today cutie, was busy and stoned for a lot of it. by the way, 10,000 BC sucked sabretooth tiger balls. anyhoo, see ya tomorrow cutie!

The War Zone
by JohnRecently I've talked to friend discussing who is the best example of a evil on screen. Daniel Plainview, Anton Churigah, Hannibal and Darth Vader were all mentioned. However after seeing Tim Roth's beautiful and underrated The War Zone I'd like to suggest that Ray Winstone's Dad is hands down the best example. This is easily the most overlooked performance of the last 10 years. (I only watched it because we and me friends were looking for a movie to watch at his house.) It's amazing how Winstone can be seem so kind one minute and the next we seem his doing unbelievably cruel things to his daughter and the weird thing is both sides are perfectly believable. Also the actress who played his daughter is nothing short of heartbreaking and Tilda Swinton even with little screen time proves that she's a fantastic actress.
The War Zone left me wondering why Roth hasn't bothered to make another film as a director? He's a extremely gifted filmmaker that doesn't hide anything for a happy ending. Even when the film almost becomes too unbearable to sit through (Some scenes just made me want to turn The War Zone off and just watch Enchanted with my little sister again.) It's a honest, gritty and depressing look at the issues of abuse and a near perfect film.A lot of friends have not rated it or rated it as not interest. Please give it a chance.

Overnight
by JohnIsn't ironic that the filmmaker of one of my least favorite films (Boondock Saints) has become the subject of one of my favorite documentaries in years. Overnight is a important lesson for any inspiring filmmaker how self worshipping can kill your career. Seriously this is probably the most unlikeable and mean person I've ever seen on screen. (Hell you have to be a egomaniac asshole to agree to doing this)
Is it a enjoyable film? Not really, Well the guy is Michael Scott if he really was a jackass and the see his rants are hilarious I can't say I enjoyed watching his downward spiral. I would say it's important for everyone who wants to break into the film industry to see just how important it is to keep your self grounded.Must see for you film nerds.

Sorry I have to agree with Riley about Pearl Harbor (Though it's only my fourth least favorite film of al time.) Though hey if you two can stay together through that it has to be a pretty decent sign right?
