21 Jump Street

See this movie
So damn funny.
One of the best action comedies in a long time.

Pitch Black. I liked it, decent action movie. I hear The Chronicles of Riddick is better.

Hopefully it doesn't stay with, the same way A Dangerous Method does.

I won't be able to see Knightly in any role without her squirm-worthy Russian butchery, jaw-thrusting its intrusion into my cinematic escape. I've never seen over-acting to such a degree, requiring me to believe that her character in fact was acting the entire childhood trauma like a stubborn crackhead playing the motions of a forced rehab session. It's that bad.

The cinematography is great though, and Vigo as Freud makes me chuckle. Any depiction of Freud makes me chuckle. It's as if Cronenberg went with the idea of portraying archetypes for each character and drawing artistic merit from this cigar-every-scene idea. From the opening scene with Jung and his wife, the discontent is pushed too much and becomes an unfortunate source of supplementary melodrama. ugggggh

I love Cronenberg, and I have yet to see his earlier films such as Videodrome and Existenz but I prefer to pretend that they were all on the rye when putting this psychologists' self-pet movie premise to lens, to hard drive, to theatre and finally to my marketing-sensitive unfortunate brain.

It was quite similar to that Coco Chanel movie of recent, where the draw is spousal misadventure with the grand finale of depressing, predictable belief in the sole-inity of human experience.

I want to see Shame.

Moneyball. I really liked it. I love baseball. shit

Let the Bullets Fly - was supposed to be the best Chinese action film of the year. Didn't make it through. Probably lost the 'comedy' point through awful translation.

Hugo
Twas alright.

Burn After Reading
Twas ok. I liked it.

Four Lions
Quite funny, and quite sad. Also has Benedict Cumberbatch looking very Ethan Hawkeish.

Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs
Way way way better than I thought it was going to be. Loved it!

Thor.

Uhmm.... what? I don't think I got it. I'll give it a 6.5. And 1.5 of that is for Nathalie Portman.

What didn't you get? I thought it was a really great movie. Actually bought that one on blu-ray.

It was a weird story about 2 brothers fighting a battle on Earth. Nothing spectecular... not as a SF movie, not as an action hero movie. Just Nathalie Portman who saved the movie with her cute face.

But I'm not a comic fan, to me these heroes seem 80% silly.

Those characters are taken from actual mythology......

They're inspired by actual mythology. Based on if you want. I wouldn't say they're "taken" from that mythology. Either way, that doesn't affect the inherent silliness.

Adaptation

Both Chris Cooper and Nic Cage were great in this movie, though the ending was kind of fucked up.

The Chronicles of Riddick. 6.5/10
I once heard it was better than Pitch Black. They were wrong. It tried hard to be bigger and better, but it didn't have the same impact as the first movie.

21 8/10
Awesome movie. I know nothing of Blackjack, but I don't think that made this movie any worse. If only I could make lots of money with any of my skills.

Contagion 7/10
I liked Outbreak better. Some of the roles were pretty boring (Matt Damon). It wasn't quite as close to the actual drama as I think would have worked best.
Oh and I can't help but think this movie was based on the web game Pandemic.

In Time 7/10
Nice concept, but the movie was too full of clichés. Also, the ghetto in the French futuristic movie Banlieu 13 Ultimatum is so much better! Go watch that movie by the way, it has everything you like.

(I needed a break from Starcraft 2 so I watched lots of movies last week. )

Snow White and the Huntsmen
6/10

The plot was decent. Chris Hemsworth was the star of the film. I don't like Kirsten Stewart as an actress.. she always seems confused and lost. Theron is an awesome villain, though a bit over the top at times.

Really dug the music and some beautiful backdrops
