Indiana Jones 4
Yup, pretty positive feedback here. It was funny but not over the top with it, a good "adventure" and a throwback to the "fantastic" kind of adventure films of old. And, in my opinion one of the best fights of an Indy film yet. Fans of the series, I do not think this will disappoint, I mean hey it's better'n temple. What about Bob The chick hadn't seen it so I threw in the videotape I got super cheap. Still worth a chuckle, and an enjoyable film. I wanna see "the man who knew too little" again now. |

Doomsday,
While I was a little dissapointed, I didn't have the highest of hopes. I would have liked to have seen more origanality in the way of the survivors. Post apocalyptic punks and period costumes didn't thrill me that much. The soundtrack bugged me a little as well, but it was fun. 6/10 |
I'm Not There
Todd Haynes falls into that category of filmmakers whom I respect but don't always enjoy. I loved Superstar and enjoyed Poison. I found Safe to be too slow and Velvet Goldmine to be a weak take on a splendid era of music. Far From Heaven was a splendid homage to the films of Douglas Sirk and his latest, I'm Not There is a biopic about Dylan, but then again, it isn't. The concept is grand. Multiple actors protray Bob Dylan at different stages of his life to illustrate how a creative chameleon evolves. But Haynes also chooses to call each incarnation by a different name - some cultural touchstones (Woody Guthrie, Arthur Rimbaud, Billy the Kid) some obsure references (Jack Rollins) and some just seemingly out-of-the blue (Jude Quinn, Robbie Clark.) This disjointed story-telling is interesting, but devoid of connection. I felt nothing for any of these characters - I enjoyed watching the nuanced performances, but there was no emotrional connection to mr Dylan. You could argue that's the point - and given the title of the film, I'd agree, but it still felt like a hollow exercise nonetheless. I respect the effort and artistry, by remain unmoved and generally disinterested. 6/10 |
Mr. Death – An Erroll Morris documentary about a guy who makes execution equipment who puts himself in the middle of a Holocaust denial trial and ruins his life. Good stuff.
