INTOLERABLE CRUELTY (2003). Smooth High profile Divorce Attorney (George Clooney who reminds Me very much of Cary Grant) locks wits with conniving Gold Digger (Catherine Zeta-Jones who also reminds Me of the old time actresses, especially Gene Tierney) and the various up and downs that go with it. Coen Brothers film starts on a high note, but gets timid towards the middle as many of their films seem to do, FARGO notwithstanding. IC should have gone for expected outrageousness and would have been more enjoyable. **1/2

Don't Tell a Soul 7/10
What an odd story. Almost doesn't make sense, but then again, maybe it does under the circumstances. Nice to see the boy playing Eddie in "It" picking this kind of movie and show he's actually a really good actor. |
Born a Champion 6/10
Young Indiana Jones as a pretty damn fit and skillful Jiu-jitsu fighter. But don't mistake it for a sports flick as it's mostly a drama, very well acted by especially Flanery, who's also co-writer of the movie. |

Found Footage 3D: About half a dozen people go out to make "the first ever found footage film in 3D" (How do I feel about 3D? Sure. Fine. Whatever.) with a real life divorcing couple making a film about a couple with marriage problems.
Douchy McDouche leads the production and hits on Lily The Intern with his wife within hearing and seeing distance. Lovely, right? Meanwhile, she flirts with The Nice Kid. Then there's the sound guy Zach Galifianakis (who comes across as the seen it all before type) and Adrian Edmondson comes across as the voice of reason (until he finally snaps too). Overall, I kinda liked it. It was self aware in a good way, partly because of some likable characters, even though I could not remember all their names. Also, in this one, I don't find the overdone snark that you see in a lot of other horror films. Feels like they wanted to add a layer of pastiche and they did that (kinda) well. Also, towards the end, it delivered a bit in the scares department. Especially with the final shot, which is predictable, but gets the job done. |
