White Noise 2: The Light (2007)
What must be done is done
Having watched the first white noise, which for me was a great film as it went against the conventional ending of all is well that ends well, i really had my hopes up high for the sequel. But as they say, sequels are most likely to be worse than the originals. And so it happened for me as well. The film in itself has some very good scares, especially in the beginning. I can't reveal the forms of these as it would spoil the movie, but trust me, they are really good. You do get used to them by the end though, as they have been overused. Other than that I will have to agree that the actors do not put in the best performance ever but then again the movie is not such that demands a high standard. The concept is interesting, as it has something of the first movie but with a twist. Oh and another thing, for those of you who might be superstitious or something, there is no such thing as 'tria mera' in Greek, it's 'triti mera', trust me, I'm Greek.
Testosteroni (2004)
Nothing is as it seems. (Especially when serving for 40 days)
This was quite a good movie for me. Despite the frequent recurrence of sexual scenes the plot was overall well-planned, as the central hero lands on an island where nothing is as it seems. Starting the movie we are put in the middle of a talk between two soldiers and slowly the director reveals what the film is about. Petros' arrival on the island kicks off a series of sexually related, seemingly unreasonable events. The answer to all the irrationality is given by the doctor, making the movie centralize on the sexually deprived soldiers and the effect their long enclosure in camps can have on their lives. Although it could do with a much better resolution at the end which, for me, seemed a bit rushed. And, as Vaso said, 'That's what boats do; leave'. So remember, there's always another boat
