the main character has the feeling that something is missing from his life ...

i have the feeling that something is missing from this film

while it's a watchable wanna be comedy / deep meaning drama, it's not my kind of humor, or lets say it's just not really funny
the dialogs are nothing special either and since it's not much happening anyway, the movie lives on the mood it creates

i really like Brühl and Vogel as actors and they surely do their best here, but it's not much you could get out of the script
a bit friendship, a bit alienation, a bit smalltalk and unfortunatly a bit of wanna-be-humor
and an weak attempt at having a deeper meaning

this one just doesn't talk to me - can't recomend it

and by the way, what the main character is missing in his life is actually having a life
Ginger Snaps Back - The Beginning Ginger Snaps Back - The Beginning R
unfortunatly this one lacks the witt and fun of the first two

instead it's a pretty standart woodland-horror-prophecy stuff
the ending was not really surprising too, after all that "together forever" talk
and the new idea of "kill the one who has bitten you before you turn and you are safe" directly contradicts Ginger Snaps 2 ...

and maybe i'm a bit harsh - it's an ok movie, but after watching the first two i had higher expectations
but nice pictures of the frozen woods

The Crow The Crow R
this movie is my absolute favourite of all times it has exactly the right mood, fatalistic feeling, darkness, mystery, love, hate and poesy. it also managed to hit me at the right time in the right mood for sure a movie about revenge, justice and love beyond the grave, it manages to keep you under pressure all the time, even with the main character seemingly indesturctable at the beginning. the characters are great and unique, featuring what i find some of the most interesting and funny bad guys. the lines they trade and the acting delivered by the actors is beautiful too, and still feels fresh after all the times i watched it. the soundtrack even manages to improve the already well created mood, with bands like the cure, machines of loving grace and stone temple pilots - in fact i first discovered the soundtrack and loved it :) the movie manages to inspire me each time i watch it, and there surely have been 20-30 times already. i've never watched anything like it, not in terms of mood, story or mystery, but the action is beautiful too, as is every shot in it ... yeah, i know - i'm better when ranting about one i didn't like ... this is why i waited so long before writing something about this one ... still doesn't seem right, but i will improve it with the time Eric Draven: "Victims - aren't we all..."
