pretty typical ‘gangster wakes up and gets morals’ movie.  if i’d have known it starts with him getting a baby i probably wouldn’t have gone in the first place.  any ‘man awkwardly changes diaper’ scene is walk-outable.  not that i would, so maybe i should just say ‘tv-shut-offable’.
anyways, it was interesting seeing a little […]

 or was he always saying ‘wow’?  i could never figure that out. 
this was kind of the definition of trying too hard.  especially the theremin score.  seeing crispin glover is enough sign for us to know: ‘this is weird.’  we don’t need the damn theremin to clue us in.  i liked some of ernest’s […]

this was alright i guess. it went overboard with the ‘i love you mommy’ scene and kind of lost me there. i enjoyed that scene just cause it made me laugh but it kind of lost the character for me. before that her actions were a bit mysterious with just a glimpse at the underlying […]

this one struck me for how hard it pushes traditional values.  wedding singer i noticed it, but it wasn’t as aggressive as in this one. 
some parts were hard to watch, especially winona ryder begging deeds to take her back and holding back tears.  her summoning up all that for this movie was […]

this was kind of disappointing.  i didn’t laugh during the greek or french parts at all.  the inquisition song might have been worth it tho.  the jokes were so obvious i guess it goes to show how hard it is to make a feature length comedy.

i like how the film is structured with no real story and a wide range of characters and scenes showing bits of their interactions. but i think if you’re going to cover such a wide range and attempt to have no real main character you have to truly be sympathetic to more than one side […]

Through the Fire (2005)
if you ain’t from new york you’re from the country

this was pretty boring for the most part.  i think the filmmakers were a little too nice and didn’t want to ruffle any feathers.  telfair is likable, but we just never saw any part of any of his thought processes.  except for his brother explaining how he was marketing telfair and bassy also saying how […]

i was only kind of half watching this, but it seemed to be trying to be mean with unlikable characters in a seinfeld kind of way. so that’s a good start for me, but i didn’t find it too funny. but again, i was only kind of half watching so i’ll leave no rating.

The Hustler (1961)
born loser.

Posted on March 15th, 2006

this pretty much blew me away.  after the first scene and when they get to fats’ place i was getting ready for something light, just because of all the smiling and smirking paul newman was doing.  but then his showdown with fats was great and then it all turned and got more complex.  i generally […]
