Religulous (2008)
not that Funny and not a great documentary
well when it comes to this considered a documentary it doesn't really fit to become a one that is able to reach the message to you, actually I didn't know what is exactly the message ? is it just to make fun of religions for the sake of being funny,showing my pride of being a non religious or trying to get people to become more rational and skeptical. this movie could be funny to some people and there's some points where I laughed but at the same time there somethings that were ridiculous more than funny and it didn't have a point like the 2 guy Muslims and the Jewish rabbi who doesn't believe in Israel.
there's also a point that most of the religious people lack information about their religion so its normal to ask them questions and they cant answer it so whats the point from getting normal people and amateur religious men and ask them questions that are beyond of their knowledge and then make fun of that its just lame.
the whole idea of going through the religions around of the world and all that but at the end of the day the way it was portrayed is not that effective for the subject you have in hand, you discussed only the Abrahamic religion only three of them while you have other non Abrahamic religions that contains things that are ridiculous and even more ridiculous.
if you want to laugh a bit watch this movie but don't try to get anything more from that but laughter
Imago (2005)
A beautiful Short film
I highly recommend imago, its one this short animation movies that really able to reach your feelings and touch your heart. the style of the drawings is very simple and yet very expressive the backgrounds seems like paintings, the choice of colors are brilliant the best thing that in this movie that adds to the other elements is the sound, it plays the great role in get the feelings to you, the music is just magical.
the downside of the movie or maybe its not exactly a downside is the story and the plot around which the film is based, the film maybe captivating when it comes to visuals but the story could be seen as simple yet we can also think of this simplicity as powerful thing. anyway I think you should now go and watch it, it worth the 10 minutes
The Reader (2008)
Shame and guilt
A great film about shame and love , its very emotional and everyone can relates to it all that packed with a great performance from Kate Wenslet I didn't read the book on which the film is based on but I think from the people's opinions the director has done a good job in adapting the Novel it was very interesting watching this story and how you could forgive this woman and even try to find ways to justify what she did also the shame you would find in the both 2 characters and how this shame haunted them and changed both of their lives Hanna who is Ashamed of being illiterate gets imprisoned for most of her life and end up committing suicide Michael is ashamed of his relationship with Hanna because she is a Nazi who committed murder cases this shame made it worse for the rest of his life he divorced, he doesn't get along much with his daughter. its an inspirational love-story film with a great role from Kate Wenslet
Vals Im Bashir (2008)
good but not great
the movie is good but not great, aside from certain political differences and reasons on how and why the massacre has happened and who is responsible, I will not say I know the truth about this but at least the movie shed the light on what happened that time, I didn't view the issue as a part of the ongoing conflict in the middle east but in a rather more broader humanly way that's how the movie should be seen for you or anyone to get the message its not about anyone as much as its about the director memories about the war and the massacre so its based on some personal opinions and stories so I am not sure about how truthful this facts was,but at the end we can say that we have an emotional and humane film about war aside from the political sides and everything.
