World Trade Center

March 10, 2010 - 3:33 pm No Comments

This is not an action movie, nor is it a documentary about the plane hitting the towers and the survivors to escape. These two men trapped in the rubble waiting to be rescued and how their families faced during that time.

It is interesting film that shows the confusion and lack of communication between departments within the 9 / 11 and how ill-prepared for the United States was an attack but do not expect to be entertained. All the way through the film can not help thinking that was a true history of 9 / 11. Do not get me wrong 2 men are rescued and survive against all odds is good, but what about those who actually saved the life of the tower and escaped or not.

For me it was a wasted opportunity. The argument of the former Marine is inspired by events to meet and “revenge attacks” by the fighting in Iraq was just bizarre. Even to link the two unrelated events was shocking unforgivable.

Having said that show was well acted and what the families of services in New York has passed, but the story was not good enough to warrant a big-budget movie they did about it.

Breakfast At Tiffany’s

March 5, 2010 - 3:00 pm No Comments

Holly Golightly (Hepburn) is a high-class escort living in New York. She meets writer Paul Varjak (Peppard) while moving in the apartment above it and, over time, interest in them.

The course of true love runs smoothly though, as relics of the past of Holly (Ebsen) and others offer a possible future (Villalonga) in the path of Paul’s persecution of her. Audrey Hepburn was nominated for an Oscar (his fourth nod, won only his first)) as Holly Golightly and, unlike so many today, she earnt the recognition. In Holly created not only a fashion icon, but a permanent indelible and massively enjoyable, the character of the screen.

True justice Hepburn is absolutely delicious on paper, his distinctive voice, making good screenplay by George Axelrod. She seems to be fun and contagious, who are led by Holly film and they come to really care for it. What makes it a fun performance into something really special are the signs of the darker side of Holly, his speech on “the miserable slump and other signs that she is probably damaged.

George Peppard not have had to act much, its main function is to be in love with Hepburn and pleasant character, combined with its mouth open beauty mean it is easy for us to understand why it would. That this does not undermine Peppard even as it gives a fine performance and fun. In fact the entire cast becomes the top class work, except for Mickey Rooney.

Rooney is cast as abusive neighbor up an offensive stereotypical Japanese Holly and slapstick scenes involving him are cringemaking. Put it in the context of the time and it became easier to explain why you’re here, but no more excusable.

That said Rooney’s role is small enough to not detract from the film by Blake Edwards directs well, contributing several moments that have become iconic in cinema. Even people who do not know this movie have probably seen Hepburn with her hair up and massively long holder. The film has been endlessly referenced in other films, look again at the end of Four Weddings and a Funeral and say not a fan of Mike Newell.

The script, though never massively surprising, it is beautifully written with sparkling dialogue good for both Hepburn (As Miss Golightly was saying before she was so rudely interrupted …) and Peppard (So what? So that much), but his undeniable highlight comes in the middle of Paul and Holly when they embark on a day to do things that I’ve never done before. In that sequence feels really and the root of your connection.

I could write much more about this great movie, but I leave this: You should see Breakfast At Tiffany’s, because you leave the film happier than you came to it.

Star Trek 2 - The Wrath Of Khan

March 3, 2010 - 5:37 pm No Comments

After the incomprehensible mess that was the flirts attempt at a Star Trek, The Wrath of Khan got back to basics - a compelling story driven by characters rather than the intent of wonder and mystery (ie, experimental special effects) of the first film.

This film sees the return of one of the most original television series’ memorable characters - the Star Trek 2 - The Wrath Of Khan of eugenics war refugees, Khan, who wants revenge after Kirk and crew banished him to a distant planet. Loads of action, and of course the legendary cry of Kirk: Khaaaaannn!

This film also features a dramatic climax with the death of a main character. Here is where the story really begins. Ignore the first Star Trek movie and pretend it’s not part of the canon.

Factory Girl

I knew nothing about Andy Warhol and Edie Sedgewick before seeing this film, so he had no idea how she was going. It took a while to get in, but it was very exciting. Sienna Miller absolutely acted outside his socks in this film - I was very impressed as I had no idea I could do so.

She really deserved the recognition he received for playing this character. The story was very well told, interspersed with quick flashbacks of his past, which almost explains how he became so disordered elderly.

Meeting Andy Warhol did not do much to help and she was involved in this drugged-up, screwed the world that led to his downfall. I would like to see an independent film made about Andy Warhol, as it is quite interesting, and this movie made me hate him. It would be good to look in detail in his life, to understand what made him who he was.

A Mighty Heart

February 19, 2010 - 5:17 pm No Comments

One wonders what prompted a journalist to risk their lives in a melting pot hell hole like Pakistan. Recently, the BBC journalist Alan Johnson was released after 114 days after being kidnapped in Gaza, was one of the lucky ones. In January

23, 2002, Mariane Pearl’s world changed forever. Her husband Daniel, head of the office of South Asia for the Wall Street Journal, was researching a story on shoe bomber Richard Reid.

They traveled to Karachi where a go-between had promised access to an elusive source. As Danny left for the meeting, he told Mariane he might be late.

He never returned. This is a fantastic vision of what happens when a kidnapping occurs in the Muslim country.

How do local police and security forces handled the investigation and how these Islamic factions hijack legitimate reporters to further their pathetic causes. Do not let it be said that Angelina Jolie cannot act. Her performance in A Mighty Heart is a fascinating, moving and masterful display of a remarkable woman who goes through so much pain and suffering but not in his heart for hate.

Her portrayal of Mariane Pearl is one of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time. perhaps even better than the performance in quality have seen this year. 8 out of 10

Deadwood - Season 1

February 16, 2010 - 2:39 am No Comments

Deadwood - Season 1 When he started all I could think about was the inauguration. He’s strong, clear and totally unnecessary. In my view, it remove the program rather than adding to it.

Apart from that we saw in the series and is definitely addictive. I liked the story from the first episode in the past.

It has very good twists and turns, addresses many topical issues of the day and takes things a little more to life than romantic western we are so used. They were barbaric times and some people have had hard lives.

This shows some of those lives very well. I would recommend this to everyone over the age at inauguration will be an issue and I would definitely see him again. There are so many things I’m sure he missed the first time load.

Watch that go missing!

What began as a spin-off of the popular sitcom Happy Days became a superstar Robin Williams in the pleasantly bizarre 1970s television series Mork and Mindy. Hatching from an egg-shaped spacecraft, alien visitor Mork (Williams) comes to Earth to investigate the planet’s inhabitants and report his findings to his superior Orson, who appears only as a disembodied voice. Mork finds shelter and friendship with a Mork And Mindy - Series 2 Middle-earth woman, Mindy McConnell (Pam Dawber), which serves as a road puzzled some of her roommate more otherworldly behavior, such as talking to plants or drinking through his fingers.

Williams’ manic style is tailor made for his rainbow suspended, fish out of water character, and much of the charm of the series was born of their imitations eccentric and strange gestures. This collection includes every episode from the second installment of the program. Na-nu, na-nu!
