Causeway (2022)
Outstanding performance. Will watch again, soon.
No makeup, no Hollywood, no clever lines, no emotional manipulation . But I was never bored, such riveting raw performances, especially for from Lawrence. . The type of movie, that when it's over , you want to immediately watch it again.
The music, also stripped down, the cinematography simple and beautiful.
There's no glamour here or seeking self pity because of the trauma. Just a brave performance. The story is very sensitively told , slowly pealing away the layers.
I hope to see more roles like these from Jennifer Lawrence. I love the ending , not soppy, just mature, enough to leave a smile on your face. Very satisfying , although it will leave you wanting more, that's how good the performance was.
Mr. Corman (2021)
Each episode gets worse
As if watching his depressing life with every episode isn't enough, he thought it would be clever to devote an episode to living life at home under lockdown in a pandemic. Newsflash, the world knows the drama
and frustration that comes with living under lockdown because we've been doing it for 18 months.
Disappointing and painful to watch.
Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis (2008)
The script (if there is one) tries too hard to be funny
I love satire, wit and clever humor. But this is simply not funny.
The script is partly to blame, then the direction,
and then Zak's poor execution.
But I can see it will appeal to certain viewers, probably mostly American.
The guests are obviously told to have a bland or uncomfortable look in their face when asked apparently awkward questions by Zak, but it's like a weak skit.
Starsky & Hutch (2004)
A waste of time
The joke is on me, I should have known better that Stiller would ruin it. Bad attempt at taking a cool series and converting into a daft comedy that tries to hard to be funny.
Unless you're vey drunk, don't bother watching this.
