Superstar (1999)
A movie with good laughs with some good cheers
I saw this movie on HBO and it got my interest because of the nerdy girl (Shannon) and Will Ferrell, my favorite comedian.
When I take a look at the first 5 minutes, I thought it was just a silly movie. But when the movie progresses, I started to laugh and laugh. When the movie ended, I said "I want more!"
The acting was good, Molly Shannon was very convincing as a nerd. Will Ferrell is good as always and Elaine Hendrix as the villain is a sure villain that you will hate.
The story would be unoriginal but, who cares? It is still a funny movie. The technical aspects were good. the gags were just the best. The musical numbers were enjoyable. And the humor that it gave to me is just pleasurable.
It may be a must-see movie but it is still great. If you ever had a chance to watch it on TV, or see it in a video store, don't hesitate to get it. It's worth it.
My score: 9/10
Singin' in the Rain (1952)
The Best Musical Ever Made In Hollywood in YEARS!!!!!!
I saw some comments in this website saying it is overrated. It is not overrated. It gets what it really deserves.
This movie shows the conversion of Hollywood movies from the 'silent' to 'talkies' in a humorous and enjoyable way. Starring Debbie Reynolds as a dancer, Donald O' Connor as a music supervisor in movies, Gene Kelly as a silent movie star and the scene-stealer, Jean Hagen as the funny-voiced actress, gives life to this rather great movie.
The movie's story is just simple but what it makes great is the performances. Gene Kelly was perfect for the role. Donald O' Connor was funny, Debbie Reynolds is charming but Jean Hagen is the most memorable. She was just hilarious. The musical numbers are the best musical numbers ever filmed. Songs here like the titular song, Good Morning, Make 'Em Laugh and others gave life to this wonderful movie. The tap dance were used greatly.
Over-all, this movie is a great experience. I would definitely give it 10/10. I wouldn't be surprised if it will be one of the most favorite films of all times.
Again, it is not overrated.
Beautiful Life (2004)
One of the most BEAUTIFUL movie!
I am a movie watcher foR a long time. But these is one of a kind. The cast, lines , and the events are realistic. The casts showed beautiful performances especially Gloria Romero, Dina Bonnevie, Amy Austria, to name a few. BEAUTIFUL LIFE, a title that means enjoying life even the worst times of our lifes come to us, is appropriate to the movie. Even the new stars like Cristine Reyes, and Iya Villania, showed fantastically. The concept of the movie is original. The director made his job well. This movie is also timely in our situation today in our country. Our time will not be wasted if we will watch this. I say to all, YOU SHOULD WATCH THIS MOVIE! IT'S GREAT!
