The Hangover (2009)
5/10
Please tell me what all the fuss is about?????????
27 July 2009
Warning: Spoilers
After I saw this movie I rated it 2 out of 10. But after having a further think and discussion about it, I reduced my score to 1 out of 10. Why? This movie is stupid! Most of the time it doesn't make sense. A cop car that's stolen but there's no man hunt for it, a tiger in the bathroom but they're talking about it in the living room like they've had it happen to them previously. Meanwhile the nerdy guy is more scared of his fiancé than the tiger! The hotel finds a bed thrown on a statue but assume it was thrown out of a window, even though they don't have windows?????? What the hell! The tiger is drugged and put into their car to take it back to Mikes place? Have you lifted a tiger lately?? I know they are trying to be funny, but they lost me from the beginning. By the time the photo's are shown at the end I was already over it. Not only that there are absolutely no consequences in the end for any of them. BOOOOOOORRRRIIIINNGGG! "Yeah, lets high five each other" Amazing that Hollywood can produce this crap and promote it so hard, and still make huge dollars. In conclusion, rent Very bad things, now that's a Vegas movie. And if you don't get what's going on in that movie, like one person who called it an evil movie about a homicide........IT'S A BLACK COMEDY!!!

The Sopranos: Made in America (2007)
Season 6, Episode 21
10/10
The best ending ever, but a lot didn't get it!

This ending was brilliant brilliant brilliant. Chase you are a master writer. Like everyone when the screen went blank I was like "fix it, fix the TV"......then I saw the credits, and I couldn't believe it. It was a perfect ending. The convo with bobby and there being no sound when you get whacked brought it all in to perspective. First thing I said was that this was the best ending of any TV series or movie ever. My wife is watching the View in the background and they don't get it either. they keep asking the question what happened to Tony. Understand it everyone, The Sopranos is about Tony Soprano, not about Sil or Paulie or Carmela or AJ or anyone else. The only way you can end Sopranos is to end Tony. Thankyou David Chase, thank you for not doing a crappy ending of Tony lying in his blood and the camera panning up into the sky and then focusing on some airplane or something stupid like that. Thankyou David Chase for sharing your creative flair with the world. I usually pick these type of endings but I had to see the credits to get it. Brilliant! If you see this finale and don't get it, watch the previous episode again and the final again. 10 out of 10 is not enough. its worth more Mr Chase.

The Departed (2006)
10/10
Martin Scorsese at his BEST!!
12 October 2006
Well I thought this movie was going to be OK, another typical mob movie........WRONG! This movie was unbelievable. All of the key actors were unbelievable. DiCaprio was brilliant. If this does not land him an Oscar then someone doesn't like him. I know it was a remake, but the delivery was the best Scorsese has brought to the cinema for a while. The classic Scorsese camera work was all over this movie. That's what I love about him, the angles no other director will experiment with. Oscar nominations for Scorsese, DiCaprio, Damon,......all of them!! that's my prediction. I can't believe it's opening weekend was slow. It's amazing how some other rubbish has made more money than a Scorsese masterpiece like this. Thanks Marty, been waiting a while.

City of God (2002)
10/10
Brilliant!! Brilliant!! Brilliant!!

Go and get this movie. Put it in your collection. If you do not live in the "City of God", you will thank your lucky stars that you were not born there after seeing this movie and make you appreciate what you have. I had been wanting to see this movie for a while and just never really sat down to give a chance. I knew it was made in 2002 and I was about to watch it in 2005 after so many people telling me it was a great movie. I didn't know anything about the plot so I had no idea what to expect either. To help me along I was longing to see a great movie in 2005. All I ask for is to see one outstanding film per year, and the others can be good or great. But I need to see one outstanding movie per year, and thats what I got in October 2005. The year is almost over and I was losing hope. Story 10/10, Directing 10/10, Movie as a whole 10/10. If you love movies, this is a movie yo must see before you die.

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!!

Well done George Lucas. The first movie I ever saw as a child was Star Wars, and after not being very thrilled with Attack of the Clones, this saga has now been put to rest beautifully. I know there are people who comment on the acting being soft at times but thats what its all about. The acting in A New Hope wasn't anything to give awards to either. What ever the acting may be, what about the transformation of this weak young man into an evil lord. This doesn't happen because of power, it happens because of weakness. Brilliant! This movie is a must see for everyone. Even if you are not a big Star Wars fan, the production and effects in this movie are unlike anything you've seen before. The operatic climax was wonderful. Bravo! 10 out of 10!
