Quantum of Solace
PG-13
Not a patch on Casino Royale which is now personally the measuring stick for future Bond installments. Main Faults:
> The distinct lack of plot
> Forgettable Villain
> Pointless characters ( Yes Gemma Arterton i mean you)
At least the action set pieces are as accomplished as ever and Daniel Craig builds on the foundations he laid for his portrayal of Bond.
Overall, a just above-average instalment and not a a bad first delve into blockbuster fare for Marc Forster.
The Dark Knight
PG-13
The Caped Crusader returns in the most hotly anticipated movie of the year. Here's my review:
POSITIVES:
> The action sequences really raise the bar and stakes compared to Begins and are much clearly made out thanks to improved editing.
> Much better all round performances. Most notable is newcomer Arron Eckhart as Two Face and of course Heath Ledger, in one word: MESMERISING.
NEGATIVES:
> The plot twists and turns a little too quick at the end so became difficult to make out why people were double crossing. But of course with repeated viewings, this will be resolved.
OVERALL: If you thought BEGINS was the pinnacle of comicbook movies, The Dark Knight tears the rulebook right up and delivers one of the best slices of summer entertainment in years. A damn near MASTERCLASS!!!

Donnie Darko
R
Well what can i say about this movie. Director Richard Kelly provides such a refreshing approach to the world of cinema with this time travelling cracker which is entertainingly weird to say the least and provides Jake Gyllenhaal with in my opinion one of his performances of his so far short career. Also has such a complex plot which has an amazing ending and the soundtrack is nothing short of amazing which includes the iconic Gary Jules hit Mad World. This movie simply has everything. In short, THE BEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER WATCHED!!!! FACT!!!
2.
Crash
R
this movie is an audience challenging, heart wrenching and brutally honest movie but so amazing. Every member of the cast delivers great performances. Worthy winner of best movie at Oscars!!!
3.
The Last Kiss
R
This was as terrific as i was expecting and a whole lot more. Far more watchable than all the cliche ridden romantic movies brought out this year. Zach Braff just seems to get stronger in terms of performance as the movie progresses and the ending is excellent which shows that you don't know what you got till its gone. Tony Goldwyn doesn't manipulate to make the audience to feel sorry for the characters and you can relate to them, which helps in terms of its realsitic approach towards love.
4.
The Breakfast Club
R
definitely stands up as one of the best teen movies considerin all the poor recent attempts includin accepted and eurotrip. So Hilarious
5.
Casino Royale
PG-13
I absolutely loved this. Daniel Craig was perfect for the role of Bond. The violence is more back to basics and the gadgetry has been axed and the movie is a whole lot better for it. Also Eva Green delivers a performance which breaks away from the traditional eye candy part by actually being involved. The movie event of the year!!!!!
6.
Garden State
R
This is simply a coming of age drama which gives every actor within this movie to bring a top notch performance thanks to a powerful plot. Zach Braff fulfils his credentials as a major star with his balance of acting, writing and directing this movie and his co stars are just as good, notably Natalie Portman. A SPECIAL MOVIE!!

Låt den Rätte Komma In (Let the Right One in)
by AdamI just recently heard about this little Swedish film within the past two weeks. I watched the trailer online, but did not see it anywhere else and thought it looked extremely interesting. After seeing the spectacular reviews it's been getting I had to head out to the theater and see it opening weekend. Hopefully it expands so everyone can see it as "Pan's Labyrinth" did two years ago because I believe this is the most original and interesting take on the Vampire film genre since it began.
The direction in this film is superb. The characters are handled expertly and they really are the best part of the film. The director manages to flesh out the characters very effectively in scenes with little to no dialogue, and by the end you deeply sympathize with the main character Oskar, and you feel sorry for his love, a little vampire by the name of Eli. Do not be mistaken, this is a little kids love story, but NOT by any means a children's film. Like "Pan's Labyrinth" it's violent, bloody and disturbing, and it would frighten most children not in their teen years. The violence is handled in an extremely unsettling straightforward fashion. This is a film with a very modern edge, however it's simplistic style gives it a sort of odd awkwardness that is not used by director's often enough. You get to actually see what happens, you don't just see a vampire jump, then a shot of teeth, then blood, and then a shot of a vampire walking away. That's what so many American filmmakers would have done with this film because they think it's cool to make a film that plays to the ADHD crowd. This film takes it's time, it's never overly gross, although at some points its quite out there, but it obviously is handled by a director who knows how to present these things in a way that is most effective and most understandable. Not to mention some of the dark humor that is injected into the film at different parts makes the extremely dark landscape of a Sweden in winter a bearable setting for this film. You'll walk out satisfied, but you'll likely want to go get a little sun for a while. Sweden in the winter time is clearly the perfect place for a vampire and the director implies this throughout all the seemingly sunless scenes of the film.
One of the other strengths that I attribute to both the writer and the director is the subtleties of the film. Many things are totally open to interpretation. After you watch the film, think about some of the characters, one great example being Eli's mysterious father figure, and then you might see what I'm talking about. This is a sweet film whit quite a bit of heart, but it might be a little less sweet then you'd originally imagined if you ponder the reason's for some of the characters actions. Think about the real meaning of the title and the answer to the purpose of the boy shall be revealed. Like "No Country for Old Men" it only gets more complex the more that you think about it, which to me is the mark of an amazing film.
The great metaphor that the author of the book who then adapted his work into a screenplay provides us with is the metaphor of the girl in the relationship being the one who's a million times less innocent than the dumbfounded, inexperienced boy. She's a vampire for christ's sake and you see his nerdy boyish cluelessness throughout the entirity of the film while she remains very mysterious and protective of the boy. She doesn't want him to see her become violent or blood thirsty, so she always try's to make sure he doesn't have to. She tries to hide him from her real self, but then really ends up accepting him as her guardian, and her as his, which he really seems to understand by the end of the film. However I don't think he knows the full extent of what that relationship will entail as he grows older.
The acting is nothing short of fantastic and it's one of the reasons the film is so amazingly effective. The director certainly had a lot of tools to utilize as he painted his vision onto the screen. The little boy, played by Kare Hedebrant, perfectly portrays a bullied and innocent kid who may go on to do something drastic if the bullying continues. The vampire, played by Lina Leandersson, does a great job of showing how much of a burden her "illness" really is, and probably would not wish it upon anyone else. All of the older adult characters in the film seem much less interesting, and are caught up with adult things too much to really intersect on an emotional level with the children. The bullies in the film do not have huge parts in terms of screen time, but effectively show how they could potentially drive Oskar into ruin if they continue their nonsense. Finally the older brother of one of the bullies who steps in after Oskar begins to fight back really does a good job of helping us empathize with the bullies as we can see that he probably was cruel to them because they are weaker than him, therfore they think its normal to be cruel to Oskar because he is weaker than them.
The film is not quick paced, but it should always hold your attention. Keeping things simple does not mean making them uninteresting. You get to see Eli's tactics of luring in or attacking her victims and the effects she has on the society that she is in. It really shows realistically what it would be like to have a vampire in any modern day society. And I certainly left the theater very satisfied by its conclusion. "Let the Right One In" explores the mythos of the vampire and manages to make your stomach turn and your heart warm all in a period of 2 hours. It's a likely candidate for Best Foreign Language Film at any award ceremony come this February, and thus far it is absolutely my favorite film of the year.
10/10With all the terrible films out right now and with Halloween just around the corner thank god Sweden stepped in with their Vampire film "Let the Right One In". If you see this playing at your local art house theater I beg you to give it a chance. It is my absolute favorite film this year.

Arisan! (The Gathering)
by Marvin
A HAPPY STORIES OF THE UNHAPPY PEOPLE
Directed by : Nia Dinata
Casts : Tora Sudiro,Surya Saputra,Cut Mini Theo,Aida Nurmala
Genres : Art House & International, Drama, Comedy
Released : December 10, 2003
PLOT
Arisan! focuses on a handful of friends who live in Jakarta, Indonesia. The main character is Sakti, a young gay man who hides his sexual orientation from his family. Meimei, his closest friend, learns in quick succession that she is unable to have a child and that her marriage has fallen apart. Soon, Sakti becomes involved in a new relationship, and must contend with the societal realities of being out of the closet.
REVIEW
Arisan! is a bold story about the hypocrites and how they conquered the metropolitan.Arisan! is basically about the lives of several upperclass,thirty something Jakartans,whose truth hide within the masks.
Arisan! reveals a splendor yet hypocritical life of the cosmopolitans.Also set the film as the heavy satire of hedonism and the rich.Storywise,Arisan! tackle the taboo,and flip the conflict into this amusing 2 hours movie that surprisingly stunned Washington viewers,and not getting enough of the controvesial themes,Nia Dinata cut this movie with dazzling camera work,and hit the notch with unique score.The movie is a full package of entertainment,comedy,and satire,bringing sex,money,and friendship to the fullest.
Nia Dinata,as the director successfully translated the word "Arisan" as a provoking metaphor of the life of the hypocrites,the same way they gathered together and pretend that everything is perfect,in a stop called Arisan.
At the end,Arisan is a magnificent Indonesian movie without being pretentious,completely honest,and fight the stereotypes.The movie also successful to make a mark left somewhere in people's mind,simply mirroring the life of the society itself.And with Nia Dinata clever cut and marvelous directing,also it's moisture cinematography and witty script,Arisan is irresistably powerful and glorious Indonesia movie.
Arisan! is my official pick for the best Indonesian movie ever,as we may call it
"THE INDONESIAN MASTERPIECE",with proud and dignity,the same reason with why I reserved a place for this movie in my top movies.
" Im Happy!"

Rocket Science
by MarcusA little independent gem, "Rocket Science" is as charming and quirky as the 2007 darling "Juno" and even better than other coming-of-age comedies such as "Thumbsucker" or "Napoleon Dynamite", but there's nothing "funny" in this excellent comedy. The main character really doesn't have a clue where to go in his search for a meaning of life and the others around him are as lost. "Rocket Science" is just like Hal Hefner: Unresolved but brilliant, Annoying but unforgettable.

WALL-E
by Marvin
An Adventure Beyond the Ordinar-E
Directed by : Andrew Stanton
Genres: Action & Adventure, Animation
Released: June 25, 2008
EXTRAORDINAR-E MASTERPIEC-E!
After Finding Nemo,there's no animated feature that could encore my childlike credulity except Wall-E.Wall-E is a astonishing oxygen supply for our amigdala,a dazzling charmer,and a storytelling champion.Once again done so beautifully by Pixar Studios,Wall-E is a big triumphant for Disney,and a feature which almost impossible to top,an audio-visual masterpiece.
The story of Wall-E is never lose a second of charm in it's ticking second,he squeaked,he winked,he bleeped,and he have a big heart.Wall-E's relationship with Eve is simply irresistable,and remember,what so wrong about that?What they preserve is simply exquisitely turned beauty and beast relationship into what so called love,unconditional and without any bullshits,and isn't that so cliché?In this case,NO.
Pixar has accomplished a termendous victory with this one whatsoever.Pixar created what we call a "MASTERPIECE",an astounding visual grace,and a breakthrough in sound engineering.And like Charlie Chaplin's movies,Wall-E is a wordless masterpiece,Pixar has successfully captured every emotion perfectly with grandeur score and an beyond-words CGI,making Wall-E is a classic without any brilliant script involved.The story of Wall-E also a symbolize the gluttonies,which are the humans,conflicted the satire,that maybe in the future,robots might have a bigger heart than human themselves,as they can see in truly magical creature called,Wall-E,which so far is the most adorable made by Disney.
Wall-E is an engaging and enchanting story of the loner,a tragic masterpiece that will stay forever,which also involves a great human's vision,not only a animation razzle-dazzle nor brainless story.Wall-E is one of the greatest Pixar ever,and has received a countless praise from me,an animation that should be worshipped through time,side by side with Disney's classic,such as Mickey Mouse,Lion King,and Finding Nemo.Wall-E is a never-ending adventure full of wonder,wonderous visual amazement,a wonder charm by it?s mute cast,and unbearable enchantment of a outer-space experience.No doubt,Wall-E is a animation classic period.

Son of Rambow
by Marvin
Rated: (PG-13)
Directed by: Garth Jennings
Casts : Bill Milner,Will Poulter,Ed Westwick,Jessica Hynes
Genres: Comedy
A very good movie about friendship,belief,dreams,and brotherhood.Son of Rambow,which also a rememberance of 80's,is undoubtly a indie masterpiece.
As well as many moments were delivered,Son of Rambow also remind us about a simple tales whereabouts a little kids who simply addicted to the movie
"Rambo", made a spoof of Rambo movie itself.And in this times where kids love to spend their time with High School Musical and Hannah Montana,Son of Rambow was considered as a bloody diamond based on the important messages about family and friendship also the way it's portraying the childhood in the most delicate way.
Yes,Son of Rambow is a great portrayal about childhood etc.But what's greater is how Garth Jennings made this film utterly beliavable,what the critics called,"At least it's better than what Sylvester Stallone's doing now."
The two lead actors were completely adorable and insanely genius,and the total of the two performances sum up better than what Stallone did in all Rambo movies,as for me.
So what not to love about this movie.Clever,witty,offbeat,and imaginative.We can find a million things great things in this movie,but most importantly,in Rambow,we treasured a genius talents in acting,and an upcoming screenwriter and directors,who has a fantastic imagination,and destined to be a movie-genious.

Big Fish
by Marvin
An Adventure As Big As Life Itself
Rated: (PG-13)
Directed by: Tim Burton
Casts : Ewan McGregor,Albert Finney,Billy Crudup,Jessica Lange,Danny DeVito,Helena Bonham Carter,Marion Cottilard
Genres: Drama
Released: December 10, 2003
THE TAGLINE SAID IT ALL
Burton's Big Fish is a features full of whimsical imaginary creatures and an exquisite tales,which attacks every childlikeness in people's soul,and make it completely believable and truly honest.Big Fish is a amazing adventure also a ride of joy,with it's every magnificent details.
Burton and Elfman,once again,brought a story so impeccable,so everyone can relate to it without feeling ashame nor skeptical to this utterly engaging tales.Big Fish revolves around man's peculiar imagination,which tore down his relationship with his own son.And along with father-son reunionship,the film unravels father's life story,which being so unbelievably fancy,more dreamlike.
The story of Edward Bloom,is more of a pack of grandiose extravaganza than a biopic tales.And similar like all Burton's movie,this film packed with wonderful scenes,and poetic string of scores.
And despite all the fanciness of this movie,I discovered more,the true essence of this story.Big Fish is a story of a family,not so filled with trust,and how they can ended up with trusting one another,and how's story so unbelievable can be a story of man's life.The true essence of this movie is about believing dreams,the same way with Will Bloom,who discovered his dad's dreams lies within a true stories.
Big Fish is is an embodiment of man's life story,whether fact or fiction.With magical illumination spread along the way,but in the end,all we got to do,is just believe.Big Fish is a movie larger than the story itself,a standing ovation for Burton and his amazing talents behind or in front-of the camera.
Warm.Dazzling.Captivating yet so enchanting,without questioning the intellegence of the audience.BRILLIANT!
A man tells his stories so many times that he becomes the stories. They live on after him, and in that way he becomes immortal.
Will BloomWatch it people!
A very very very enchanting tales from Tim Burton.
Enjoy,

Sex and the City
by MarvinDirected by : Michael Patrick King Casts : Sarah Jessica Parker,Kim Catrall,Cynthia Nixon,Kristin Davis
Genres : Romantic,Comedy
Theatrical version of the television series based on Candace Bushnell's book "Sex and the City," which chronicles the sexy exploits of New Yorkers.After moving in together in an impossibly beautiful New York apartment, Carrie Bradshaw and Mr. Big make a rather arbitrary decision to get married. The wedding itself proves to be anything but a hasty affair--the guest list quickly blooms from 75 to 200 guests, and Carrie's simple, label-less wedding gown gives way to an enormous creation that makes her look like a gigantic cream puff. An upcoming photo spread in Vogue puts the event--which will take place at the New York Public Library--squarely in the public eye. Meanwhile, Carrie's girlfriends--Samantha, the sexpot; Charlotte, the sweet naïf; and Miranda, the rigid perfectionist--could not be happier. At least, they couldn't be happier for Carrie. Charlotte still has the unrealized hope of getting pregnant. Samantha is finding a loving, committed relationship more grueling than she could have imagined. Miranda unwittingly lets her own unhappiness--created when Steve admits to cheating on her just once--spoil Carrie's. After a heated encounter with Steve, she happens to spot Mr. Big and tells him he's crazy to get married. She's really only thinking of her own marriage. But her angry remark gets Mr. Big to thinking.
A HIT CINEMA SHOW!
It's not much to say,when it comes to my beloved characters on the TV screen,and SATC:The Movie put an icing on the cake for the series itself.As always,The SATC girls are never losing out their fun.And in the movie,we can find all we wanted,an always adorable narration,a fast-witty script,and it's irresistible clothes.
For the fan,it certainly was a magnificent treat from the TV show,and for the non-believer,it still clearly a perfect romantic comedy.
1
The script,hands down.Michael Patrick King is actually has a story to tell.He's throwing a grand homage to the TV show,by writing it's inescapable great script,and few brilliant lines.The script was a knock-out hit from the movie,certainly.
2
In terms of story development,SATC:The Movie was a complete reminiscing experience back in the old days.The story was utterly fresh and the narrative by Sarah Jessica Parker is still remains adorable and heartwarming.
3
What more entertaining for the fans than watching all four girls re-team in one frame again?Despite all the exhaustion it took to bring back all the girls,Carrie,Miranda,Charlotte,and Samantha are back in their best shape ever.With Patricia Field and New York's Backdrop,I can't imagine anything that more delicious.
4
Watching SEX & The City : The Movie is like watching 3 episodes back to back,which is the best way to entertain fans.What's more exciting than see 3 episodes,with large screen and dolby surround sound.
So,after four years gap,is Sex & The City : The Movie worth to buy?The answer is YES!The Movie revisited all the old school charm,has vast character development,and even more flashy clothes,and panorama.We want it,then they gave it the best.
"It's the last single girl kiss. "
Carrie BradshawYes,for some of you,it's a complete mediocre,but for the fans of the show,this is a MASTERPIECE!

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
by Marvin
Never Forget.Never Forgive
Rated: (R)
Directed by: : Tim Burton
Genres: : Mystery & Suspense, Drama, Musical & Performing Arts
Released: : December 21, 2007
DVD Released: : April 1, 2008
A BLOODY DARK REVENGE STORY,MASTERPIECE IN VISUAL ENCHANTMENT,AS WELL AS IN CUTTING-THROAT AND BAKING HUMAN PIE!
Sweeney Todd : The Demon Barber of Fleet Street probably is the musical that didn't occur any gay dancing numbers at all,otherwise,Sweeney Todd is a musical contains explicit exposure of brutality,and massive amount of blood.
Burton's theatrical drawing on the old London is the most breathtaking one,after Luhrman's Moulin Rouge.Burton personified London into this utterly dark industrial vibe-town,along with Burton's essential style,which means magnificent cinematography,and super-lavish production set.
With Sweeney Todd,Tim Burton has officially conquered the world of musical,with his own impersonation.Sweeney Todd,played by Johnny Depp,is an essential Tim Burton character.Dark,gritty,and haunting.And with Depp's touch,Sweeney Todd is never running out of his charisma.Depp's astounding impersonation of Todd,goes along with the supporting casts.
Helena Bonham-Carter,as Mrs.Lovett,in the other hand,is a cleansweep,emphatizing Lovett with a really dark vibe to it.Along with Sacha Baron Cohen and Alan Rickman,they make a solid supporting lineup.
With archievements from every degree,is it too excessive to say that Sweeney Todd is the best musical of all time?Probably yes.But for sure,Burton has served us the musical masterpiece that we've been waiting for,a very dark masterwork,that set a musical to the most haunting.A haunting,and extremely terrorizing musical yet a larger than life work of art for it's extraordinary visual wonderment,and it's dazzling numbers.
They all deserve to die. Tell you why, Mrs. Lovett, tell you why! Because in all of the whole human race, Mrs. Lovett, there are two kinds of men and only two. There's the one staying put in his proper place and one with his foot in the other one's face. Look at me, Mrs Lovett! Look at you! No, we all deserve to die... Even you, Mrs Lovett, even I! Because the lives of the wicked should be made brief. For the rest of us death will be a relief. We all deserve to die... And I'll never see Johanna, no I'll never hug my girl to me... FINISHED!
