The Broken Circle Breakdown (2012)
I don't understand the commotion about this movie in Belgium
Is this just me, because actually, I found this movie to be slow and a little bit boring. Every new scene you'll have to figure out where to place it in the time-frame. The lighting is occasionally bad, but this could be done on purpose? (filming against the light, in shadows without extra light, etc).
What absolutely is missing, is the spark between Baetens and Heldenbergh, even in the more sexual scenes. I hoped to see something like Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon in 'Walk the Line', particularly in the music scenes, but alas. Maybe therefore I didn't found it to be emotional at all. Furthermore, I didn't find the blue-grass music scenes a surplus to the movie. I couldn't get the idea out of my head that the storyline was secondary to the music(scenes).
The religious outbreak of Heldenbergh is one for the deleted scenes. Sadly, this could have been so much more. A missed opportunity.
Notting Hill (1999)
Top-shelve Crap
Everything stinks here! There's absolutely no chemistry between Hugh and Julia, in fact, Julias acting is awful. It almost looks like she playing a figurant-role instead of a head-role. Furthermore the jokes are just not funny and worse, there irritating and inconsumable. Notting Hill = Nothing Much. 1/10.
