The Machinist (2004)
Great movie & performance
I rented this movie yesterday, was really pleased that I did not guess the cliffhangner and this seldom happens.
What blow ed me the most about this movie though, is Christians'performance, it blew me away. I always thought he was an OK actor, but he just moved to my top 10 list. I sincerely hope he gets the chance to work on material that permits him to expand himself as an actor, just like he did for this movie.
Otherwise, the movie was great, the script was thigt and I totally enjoyed it.
I only wish it was dubbed in other languages (French) so that my friends could see/understand it.
Ocean's Twelve (2004)
An empty shell....
I'm so deceived, I really wanted to like this movie, some of my favorite actors are in it, but except for the pleasure of seeing all these wonderful actors, it's not worth it. So my critique will be very superficial because this is exactly what this movie all about.
First of all, I'm not a fan of Zeta Jones, but she is gorgeous in this movie, never seen her looking so good, hot as a tamale.
I'm a Fan of Julia, I've never seen her look so bad, where was the make-up artist??? what happened?
I'm very suspicious about Mr. Pitt look, I feel there is a touch of Botox. As for Clooney and Damon, perfect like always, love them as they are.
The best thing about this movie, is the score, quite enjoyable.
I rated this movie a 3 and I think I was generous.
Grind (2003)
Beware!!
Probably the worst movie I've seen in a long time. The worst part and by far is Vince Vieluf, this guy is not funny, this guy is very annoying and after a while, the scenes where he was the center stage were put on fast forward! If this guy can make it in the movies, well so do I!
This movie is a total mess. Probably the only good thing about it is Mr. Vogel, he was nice to look at.
I was bored from beginning to the end.
Also, I think Adam Brody is usually very talented & they managed to make him very bad in this movie. Stay away from it!!! I feel like I've lost 2 hours of my life.
The Bourne Supremacy (2004)
Loved it but a few minor things bothered me...
Loved the movie,think Matt Damon is great as Jason Bourne but the one thing that really bothered me is the nervourness of the camera in the Action (fights) scene. C'mon! I wanted to see what was happening and it was really hard to keep track. I know it's stylish and it suppose to make the scene more intense but frankly I could have done without. The fact that it was also blury at times did not help. There was a great fight scene(I think) in the appartment in Berlin which I would have love to see, the coreography seemed amazing, but with the camera always moving and the out of focus, it was jut impossible to determine who was the bad guy and who was Jason.
End quote: It's the first time I find Matt Damon sexy in a role, usually I find he is a good actor but he was never my kind of guy.
28 Days Later... (2002)
Loved it, just loved it
After reading comments from overseas, I couldn't wait to see that movie. The fact that Mr. Boyle directed that movie was my first attraction to it, I like everything he directed except "The Beach".
What really enjoyed it it, I was riveted to my seat from start to finish, I loved the cinematography and also the fact that I really cared about the caracters. I thought that the distribuition was excellent.
Go see it.
The Bourne Identity (2002)
Great action movie
I loved the book and I loved the movie. Never thought I would find Matt Damon sexy, but he did it for me in that movie. Fraka Potente is excellent, the locations are great and the action is non-stop. Definetaly worth the money.
Le chat dans le sac (1964)
Very stylish intelligent movie
What an nice suprise, yesterday,I caught this movie on TV by pure luck. It was so good, artsy, the script was excellent and well documented on the condition of Quebec, I've learned from that movie. The actors were excellent. Anybody who is interested in finding out about the Quebecors conditions in Canada, should see that movie. A gem.
Resident Evil (2002)
Wow!
My boyfriend dragged me to see that movie.... and I loved it. Did not expect a lot and was totally surprised. Got scared liked crazy. Milla and Michelle are perfect in their role. Very good entertainment hopefully there will be a sequel. The FX were excellent.
Romper Stomper (1992)
Disturbing yet quite true to life
I found that this movie is probably one of the most disturbing social study of the Skin heads gangs. American History X is quite pale in comparison. I must admit that I usually enjoy down under movie 'cause there is less fluff and more substance than most of the north american big production for big profit genre.
Russell Crowe is just as good as it gets, and Daniel Polock is close behind. I recommend this movie highly but beware it is quite violent.
