Body: The other night, my wife and I watched Pursuit of Happyness. I had heard it was a good movie, but I wasn't nearly as interested in seeing it as my wife was. However, I have to give credit to Will Smith. I don't know why he continues to surprise me as an actor (probably because he was in those Bad Boys movies), but he does. His charm and charisma always shine through in his roles. He doesn't look like a movie star in this film, but he performance is sincere and heartwarming. Perhaps that has something to do with performing opposite his son. I don't think I would've gotten as much out of these movie if I wasn't a new father. His character's motives throughout the story are very clear: everything he does and decides is to make sure that his son has the best possible life. I love his character's confidence in himself, but also his vulnerability. This movie did make me feel a bit down in the dumps, and it doesn't hit the inspirational heights of Rocky-formula movies. In fact, it's a relief more than anything when Smith's character, Chris Gardner, inevitably comes through his trials. The Chris Gardner character works his tail off to do what he must and to get what he wants, but his belief in himself hardly wavers. He's like a guy climbing Everest, cycling in the Tour de France, or doing any other endeavour in which self-doubt can destroy you; the kind of man that makes me (and probably most people) feel incredibly lazy.

Body: I was teaching an EFL class of Korean middle-school girls when I first heard about Yeobgijeogin Geunyeo. It was the big teen hit of the year (the other big hit that year in Korea was Friend, which I still have not seen). At my students' prompting I promised them that I would see My Sassy Girl. I was so glad that I did. I fell completely in love with the Girl (Jeon Ji-hyeon). The movie is funny, cute, a little stupid, sweet, romantic, innocent, heart-breaking, heart-warming, adn an absolute joy from start to finish. Hollywood is remaking this movie, but it won't work at all. This movie is Korean through and through. I can't really explain how, but anyone who has spent any time in Korea, or with Korean girls, will recognize the naive bravado that they put on. They want so much to be grown-up, but their culture (by this I mean not only the remnants of traditional culture, but also the pressures of modern, Western-influenced pop/youth culture) dictates that they remain school girls. It is a combination that makes the Girl both representative and irresistible. Cha Tae-hyeon is perfectly cast as Kyun-woo, the lucky unfortunate sap who gets sucked into the GIrl's world. His comic timing is dead on, his facial expressions priceless, and his sweetness sincere. I don't think this movie is for everyone, but if you have a sweet-tooth, this is the film equivalent of pralines and soufflé.

Body: Thank goodness! The Prestige is a terrific movie and I thank great goodness for that. When the movie was released that fall it was on the top of my must-see lists. However, my new born son doesn't let me get out to the theatre as much as I used to, so I had to wait until it came out on DVD. We finally got around to having a free evening and the movie was at the videostore, so we rented. Ever since Memento, I've had very high expectations from Chris Nolan. As such, Insomnia ultimately disappointed, but Batman Begins blew me away. Now, The Prestige... so, so, so good. The two leads are terrific. Christian Bale just gets better and better. He smolders, he looks dangerous and angry, is tender, is funny, is smart. As for Hugh Jackman, there is no danger of him being typecast as Wolverine. In fact, the more I see of him, the less Wolverine I see (which means when I see Wolverine, I see only Wolverine and not some singing, dancing Aussie actor). Michael Caine, as with Children of Men, shows why he is one of the greatest movie star actors of all time. The movie looks fabulous and it full of atmosphere, interesting ideas, and surprises. The only real complain I have is with Scarlett Johansson. She really didn't add anything to this movie. In fact, I wish another actress had been cast so that I was distracted by the expectation of young Scarlett. But, that is trivial. Well done to Chris Nolan and everyone who was involved in the making of The Prestige.

Body: Iraq For Sale is an extremely disturbing documentary about, what I believe, is the true reason for the Iraq War. The government of the United States, led by the Bush Administration, have started and prolonged a conflict solely for making money. Only one conclusion can be taken from this film, and that is that corporations running the war are taking gross advantage of the Iraqi people, American soldiers, and the complacency of the American public. It is a very biased view, but not a bitter one, nor does it display the mockingly dressed up patriotism of Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11. Where that movie failed with schoolyard name-calling, this one suceeds in presenting its case with selective evidence. However, there is only one point of view in the documentary, though in the credit roll the filmmakers make it clear that they tried very hard to get statements from companies like Halliburton, Blackwater, et al. I think an excellent companion documentary to this is The Corporation.

Body: This afternoon I watched Jarhead. Hmph! Jarhead is not a bad movie, it just suffers from it's subject matter. It wants to be about something, it thinks the Gulf War was about something, but it wasn't. All that pseudo-philosophical rhetoric about a marine and his rifle and the desert and still being in the desert even after you come home and who else but a marine will see the stuff they saw in the Iraqi desert. It's the kind of writing that college kids write. It sounds really smart the first time you put it down, but later it shows up as shallow (kind of like my filmblog posts). The best part of this movie is the scene where the marines are watching Apocalypse Now. I was just as disappointed as them when it was abruptly switched off. This movie is not Apocalypse Now, it is not Full Metal Jacket, it is not Three Kings. It is a desert of a movie.

It wants to be about something, it thinks the Gulf War was about something, but it wasn't. All that pseudo-philosophical rhetoric about a marine and his rifle and the desert and still being in the desert even after you come home and who else but a marine will see the stuff they saw in the Iraqi desert. It's the kind of writing that college kids write. It sounds really smart the first time you put it down, but later it shows up as shallow (kind of like my filmblog posts). The best part of this movie is the scene where the marines are watching Apocalypse Now. I was just as disappointed as them when it was abruptly switched off. This movie is not Apocalypse Now, it is not Full Metal Jacket, it is not Three Kings. It is a desert of a movie.

It wants to be about something, it thinks the Gulf War was about something, but it wasn't. All that pseudo-philosophical rhetoric about a marine and his rifle and the desert and still being in the desert even after you come home and who else but a marine will see the stuff they saw in the Iraqi desert.

Body: I watched The Devil Wears Prada a few weekends ago with my wife. We both loved it. Meryl Streep was excellent and Anne Hathaway.... what a fox! I just loved her in this movie. She is totally the girl-next-door and the vixen from down the street rolled up in one. The plot of the movie is predictable, but, like Legally Blonde (one of my darling wife's favourites), it has an irresistable charm. Is this the best movie ever made about fashion? I only have the awful Prêt-à-Porter to compare it to, so I would say that it is. Plus, it has Anne Hathaway in it. Did I mention her yet? Anne Hathaway... I bet Shakespeare wishes he'd waited 600 years instead of settling for the first Anne Hathaway that came along. She's beautiful, talented, great big eyes, amazing smile... I'm embarrassing myself. I'll stop.

Body: I watched Scoop with my wife and her best friend at home the other weekend. I wasn't expecting much and got less than that. While Hugh Jackman was kind of charming and Miss Scarlett was gorgeous, the whole thing was souless and empty. Woody Allen has missed the mark before, but this was just the work of a man killing time in London, looking for an excuse to spend more time with his current favourite actress. Match Point was a return to form for Woody Allen. It was well-acted and had thought behind it. Scoop has neither of those things. There is also no sense of place in this movie. Perhaps Woody Allen should stop trying to entertain himself so much and try entertaining his loyal audience.
