The Counselor (2013)
1% I understand this film
First thing first, this film comprises an ensemble cast that guarantee every moviegoer would take a visit to the cinema (in theory), the cast is almost all stars like Brad Pitt, Cameron Diaz, Javier Bardem, and Penelope Cruz. Its ashamed that the only good acting in this film is Michael Fassbender, the main protagonist in this film. He delivers a good emotion, acting, cries, sad, and of course expression in predicament situation.
I think all in all, its almost 200 films i have ever seen in my entire almost 30 years of life. And this film is the worst movie i have ever seen in terms of comprehension of the plot of the film. And i am not from the English-speaking countries, but my English is enough good. But ridiculously i don't understand 99% percent about this film, you can laughing of course if you feel you are an erudite person and looking this post. But i guarantee even the most erudite person in this world have to take some notes or even reading in Wikipedia/IMDb/etc etc to completely understand this movie.
And i do believe that this film is made just to train our brain laboriously to how to decipher the plot but i am too lazy to do that. Just enjoy the talking about sex and woman, because that of 1% i understand about, anything else i'm completely blind.
Captain Phillips (2013)
Decent film, decent actors!
Just like usual, Tom hanks as a big Hollywood star gives the best out of it and for me its a good act from him. The starstruck effect from him doesn't change much since he got 2 consecutive Oscars.
On the other side, all actors in film also give something special for the film, seriousness, tension, deadpan (this for Tom Hanks), and also grief.
I also give a good credit for the Somali actor who plays the main antagonist here, Barkhad Abdi, and the rest of his henchmen. The one thing that make this film just a film (it doesn't show the actual event...in my opinion) is how mushy the the robbers in the film, they fights each other, debates each other, and blames each other, they are too mushy to the crew of the ship. It's like the avarice they have just for a showcase in the film, not the actual event. They yammers the group until they are all shot and died, except the leader. But again, this is just film, so there is no use too regret that part.
And.....the last note.....is it anyone there just like me.......Have more sympathy to the bad side than all of those NAVY people???
Roundhay Garden Scene (1888)
Lolol....This just because from 1888
If you want to see the scene (less than 2 seconds) just search on Youtube.
The scene is in the white and black. And it is my honor to review the scene. And i think i DON'T NEED A SPOILER HERE. The scene has 2 couples and, there is a cheerful music.
Don't upset yourself if you want to see the scene, it is very very usual, but, hey, if you do that, you could put a rating on your IMDb list. And you can boast to your friend that you have seen movies from 3 millennium...1800, 1900, and 2000.
Honesty, that makes my younger sister very jealous, hahaha, it's fun though.
For a hint, just write on the youtube "early film collection", and you will find a video with some earliest movies.
cheers
GP506 (2008)
Overlong and boring.
Maybe some of you would say that this movie is good and appalling.
Yes, they make the prosthetic faces disgusting enough for some of you. But, just that nothing more. With addition a little bit of action, many talks and talks again, and there even no a slightest humor in there: make this 2 hour long movie seems so boring.
And for the plot, there so many obscurities about that: the origin of viruses, how they spread, etc etc.
For us to know, that this film is a horror genre, there is no use to make the quasi-dramtical int there. The film should scare us in the context of amusement, instead of that, this film just makes me irritated. They makes the horror movie halfheartedly.
And 2 hours seems like forever.
Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)
Bram Stoker would be disappointed if he's alive!!
I read the novel and finished it about one week and the next day i watched the movie.
Well, i just want to say that if i watched the movie without read the novel first i would have given a better rating maybe 8.
Its not a bad movie but very unfaithful and disrespect the novel. I am disappointed with this flicks because the title is the straightforward "BRAM STOKER'S Dracula". Bram himself should be regretting himself to wrote the good book and abused after his rest in the grave.
***SPOILER***WARNING!!!
1. The film clearly abused the novel with humanizing the Dracula, how the Dracula feels regret when turning Mina into vampire and all other scenes. While in the novel Dracula is something a curse creature, unforgiven, cursed by God, inhumane, heartless, deserves to die, and has a childish frame of mind.
2. In the novel there are no explanations about the Dracula having lovers or wives or whatever. So turning Mina into some kind of reincarnation of the passed Dracula lover is something ridiculous. And the film even worse makes the love relations between Dracula and Mina into the main topics is disgusting.
3. The novel shows the very deep modesty relation between Mina and Jonathan, they very loves each other, very respecting each other, they feel their emotions each other, they show their grieves deeply if one another has the problems, and it's affecting us...REALLY. But the film turns Mina into an unfaithful wife with her desire to the Dracula and they even almost make love in Mina's desire...MY GOSH!!!!
SPOILER ENDS!!
Finally, i understand if a film isn't exactly words by words with the novel version, but if they changed the main topic and the heart of the novel which is the beast Dracula in to something humane Dracula, thats too much. And turning the faithful and religious Mina into the unfaithful Mina in the film, thats just unthinkable.
For the casual beholders and yet to read the book, it better to watch the film first then read the book so you wont be upset. Even better After watch the film and don;t do the reading, it will make you feel cheated.
But for the beholders that have no desire to read the book, its the best for them, the film could be a fun thing. The pesky beholder (just like me) is the one that after read the book then watched the movie. Just sad thing.
Say Anything... (1989)
Good film from the first time director Crowe.
This is a good movie with a deep heart on it. Ione and Cusack gave their best. And the relation between the father and the daughter even makes this film more meaning than usual romantic movie.
But a little bit drawbacks maybe, the kick-boxer profession just isn't fit with no-muscular Cusack. Maybe the script should give him another profession. Say, if Cusack character is a man who usually trains with sandbag (just like the film show), he should be more muscular than what the film shows.
Anyway, if you want to see Cusack at its best, i suggest seeing this movie, because you will be satisfied by him.
The Smurfs (2011)
Fun, Interesting, and full of laughs
Good film, good entertainment, don't expect more from this film, some of actors done it with overacting but that what they've paid for. Funny weird cat, Azaria's even not look like himself in this film, wonder who he is but he's funny too. Good kinship between the smurfs and humans, good for family theme, for kids, children, or even adults. Spend your little time for this film you wont regret it although that will not make you smarter or whatever. Many people said that you better not taking your bucks for this film and thats stupid idea, they got 500 M dollars for this pieces of crap, so mind you not to see this crap, and you will regret it.
9 Songs (2004)
Porno Holocaust is better than this.
This film is so so so simple. this is about an American woman came to England and met a British man in a music concert. They made sex every time and went to the concert all the time. And finally the woman back to America and the man went to antartic.
PERIOD.
There's nothing more. After watching this film, i feel like i could make a film that could be win for Oscar comparing to this film.
Why 2 not 1? Well, it's because i love when Margo having sex with O'Brien whose his penis is big and long compared to his little body. And one reason again, i like some of Dandy Warhols musics including "The Last High". So the penis and one of the brief music cut make the different between 1 and 2.
Just about a week before i watched this film, one of my friend showed me a film name "porno holocaust" it's an horror pornographic movie, after watching it, i felt like that was the worst film i've ever seen. But now my opinion changes again. Even that "porno holocaust" is better than this.
Catwoman (2004)
Bad:It isn't so bad:Deviation cast chosen
Everyone said this film was totally awful. Well, yes it isn't as good as Berry's other film. actually, i little bit hate saw feigned action on Berry. From the beginning i thought this film is dark and show the intricate or complicate roll way of life like Wayne in Batman but when i finished watching until then, this film was far than what i expect. It feels the plot is too smooth the problem that what berry's role should have to be. Actually, this film just have some easy intricts. But, i think on the whole this film just enough entertained me. Still hilarious looking the sweet and beautiful Berry's face. Maybe Pitof should have choose more charismatic cast for catwoman's boyfriend. He is just little under par in handsomeness.
The main problem is Halle Berry who get this part. He has a high standard in acting and not suitable for an easy role like this, choose others maybe it's more fixed.
Eiffel I'm in Love (2003)
just enjoy!!
Well. first don't compare this movie with another at all. Even you would, so put on the list the others indonesian's as well. Six stars because -the sign of the rise indonesian movies
-get a lot of intention from fellows The plot too cliché, and partly is non-sense (who'll act fierce if you face the beautiful girl for the first time). Sandy was too simple and Samuel was the totally jerk. but, above all things, no subject to complain, this is one of the highest worth indonesian's movies nowdays. so, it's no chain with the plot, clear your head, don't expect more or something clever, this was just another teen movie, just follow the shows, enjoy.......
Elf (2003)
best role's Ferrel
This film was hilarious for children or adult. Will Ferrel acted so well and made laugh very hard. The plot wasn't so excellent, it's an easy quest for the story. Actually, i only see Ferrel in maybe 3 or 4 movies, most of them in minor roles, and this was his best appearance that i ever known.
I bet Favreau directed well for this movie. Two thumbs up for his first big project movie.
maybe there's one thing to criticize that the love between Buddy and his father it was showed too cliché and it was too easy to solve it. Wish more complicated for this scene. but, this was a great movie of the year.
