Body: I rented "Big Trouble in Little China" the other day on recommendation from some friends who claimed that it was "awesomely bad." I'm "ashamed" (read "not at all ashamed") to say that I really really liked it. Despite the fact that the script is completely awful (Kim Cattrall's character basically exists to spout exposition, and the thing is more chock-full of stereotypes than a fortune cookie at a Wok and Roll restaurant). It's the kind of weird adventure flick I could see myself loving as a little kid--aside from the numerous rotting corpses and colorful language, of course ; )

Body: Gabe over at Videogum has been doing a series for a little over a year now called "Hunt for the Worst Movie of All Time" that is pretty stinking great. He takes suggestions from the readers and gives hilarious in-depth commentary on what he sees, complete with film clips and animated GIFs. While I'd argue with some of his picks ("Rachel Getting Married" is on the coming soon list), sometimes it's just fun to read his ranting. Has anyone else been reading this? Thoughts?

Body: [quote user="Risselada"] Good to see you back here Abby!!! I have no idea what the context is for Coraline, and now I'm really interested. What is this all about? [/quote] I'm only too happy to fill you in! "Coraline" is a chilling little Grimm-caliber fable about a girl (named Coraline) who doesn't get much attention from her busy parents. Her family moves to a new apartment building filled with weird characters. One day, while exploring the house, she discovers a doorway to an alternate world where everything is just like it is back home, but better. Her house is prettier, the food is better, the garden is lovlier and, most importantly, her "other parents" in the mirror-world are attentive to her every need. The only unnerving thing is that everyone in this alternate world has buttons for eyes. Coraline's other parents want her to stay there forever, but to do so, she would also have to replace her eyes with buttons, which she obviously doesn't want to do. When Coraline goes home, she discovers that her real parents have been kidnapped by the Other Mother, who is really a horrible monster. Now Coraline has to face down the Other Mother in order to get her parents back. That's it! Sorry it was a tad long, but I wanted to be a little juicy in my synopsis.

Body: I had the great opportunity while in Scotland this last month to check out "Pontypool" at the Edinburgh film festival. I know this movie only just opened in the states, and I'm pretty sure its release is fairly limited, but I wanted to know if anyone had seen this yet, or wants to, or has any thoughts about it. I, for one, enjoyed the hell out of this movie and think everyone should go check it out. I think it's a really refreshing take on the conventions of the zombie genre, and probably my favorite new zombie movie (that I've seen) since "28 Days Later." Here's a link to the trailer

I thought this was a wonderfully whimsical, funny, and surprisingly poignant film. I don't know about you guys, but there were a couple of times where it got pretty dusty in the theater for me (read: tears running down my cheeks as I tried to keep from showing my emotion).

Who cares about digital FX, protect the kids! [/quote] You bring up a good point, CaPeach! Definitely something we should address. Here's my take: Neil Gaiman has been quoted in interviews as saying that adults are way more creeped out by the content of the book (and the movie) than children are. I think I'd be inclined to agree. Granted, I was 13 or 14 when I read the book for the first time, but it never gave me nightmares. Still, I wouldn't recommend the movie to children under the age of about eight, for sure. I think you have to give kids credit for being a bit stronger than we like to think. I mean, my generation grew up watching "The Goonies," (which is a pretty harrowing movie when you think about it) and "Nightmare Before Christmas" (Again, pretty creepy) and we turned out okay...right?

Body: Hooray! Aussie films have formed the background of my early film education...and they continue to rank among my faves. Here are the ones I love: Breaker Morant (about Australian soldiers in the Boer War) The Last Wave Picnic at Hanging Rock (Combine with "The Last Wave" for a surreal Peter Weir double feature!) The Man from Snowy River (based on an epic poem by Aussie poet Banjo Patterson, who also wrote "Mulga Bill's Bicycle," a favorite book of mine as a kid) My Brilliant Career (Jane Austen meets Louisa May Alcott in the Outback...and it's a true story!) Rabbit-Proof Fence (error kept me from getting the link. Gross.) And, of course, no list would be complete without Mad Max.

Body: [quote user="seely"] I just saw a trailer for Coraline the other night and was pretty intrigued. I believe they said it was "hand drawn digital animation"--almost seems like a contradiction of terms but intriguing none-the-less. Anyone heard much about this or seen it? I'm hoping its not just another "visual masterpeice" with little or no substance beyond some snazzy animation. [/quote] Well, I saw the movie a couple of weeks ago, and I liked it, but I wasn't blown away. I loved the book back in high school, and I feel like a lot of what made it so effective was lost here. I'd have loved to see some of Dave McKean's influence (his illustrations are a big part of what made that book), and I feel like the animation, although it's obviously state-of-the-art, was too smooth. Part of the issue might have been the fact that I didn't see it in 3-D, so things might have looked a little flat. The reason I love stop-motion, and Henry Selick's older movies, is the evidence of human interference: slightly stilted movements, fingerprints, stuff like that. "James and the Giant Peach" remains one of my favorite movies to this day largely because of stuff like that. It looked scratchy, a tad creepy and off-kilter and wonderful. This movie had none of that. If you're going to make a stop-motion movie, make it look like a stop-motion movie. Otherwise, just go ahead and computer animate everything. That's my rant. Otherwise, I thought it was a good movie, worth seeing, and probably a better credit to Neil Gaiman's body of work than was "Stardust," although I gotta admit I did like that one.

Body: I'll get this out of the way right now: You probably aren't going to see "The Village Barbershop" on any shortlists for Film of the Year. It's not a terribly important movie. It doesn't make any statements and relies on a lot of cliches and "hollywood-ending" plot points. But (and I know this is gonna sound silly) it's got an awful lot of heart, and, in the words of Mark Kermode, "does what it says on the tin." It's a sweet, poignant comedy that delivers decent performances and a mild amount of entertainment. The movie tells the story of Gloria (Shelly Cole) and Art (John Ratzenberger of Pixar fame). Art runs a men's barbershop in Reno. His wife has died, he's lonely, he's kind of a curmudgeon. At the start of the movie, his longtime business partner dies unexpectedly (and inexplicably. It just sort of happens without any kind of announcement). Now, Art is in debt, behind on his rent and needs an extra barber to help run the place. He originally hires the spirited, pregnant Gloria to do the books, but realizes she's got the skills to trim hair. As the movie progresses, wouldn't you know it, Gloria ends up opening Art's mind and heart and turning the business into a success. Like I said, "The Village Barbershop" is far from unique. It also suffers from weak writing in several places, and overacting in others (watch for the judge at Art's hearing about 3/4 of the way through the movie). But Ratzenberger and Cole bring the goods in both their scenes together and apart. Both actors turn in real, grounded performances that only serve to point out how silly everyone else looks. The other characters are cariactures. Art and Gloria are characters. If you're looking for the next indie darling, the next "Waitress" or "Juno," "The Village Barbershop" ain't it. But if you're looking for a sweet, undemanding movie to watch on a Friday or Saturday night, it's a pretty good candidate. Recommendations: "Waitress"- More pregnancy, more pie, less hair. "Juno"- More wit, better music "Steel Magnolias"- More women, more drama

Body: It's hard to think of the accurate words to describe "The Guitar." "Ridiculous," "overdramatic" and "Oxygen channel after dark" are all words and phrases that spring to mind. But mostly, it's just bad. Basically, the plot is this: Saffron Burrows is sick. She has cancer. Dr. Janeane Garofalo gives her one or two months to live. In addition to this, she gets laid off from her job and ends a relationship with a man she's apparently dating (I gathered...I wasn't entirely sure what was going on) to add up to pretty much the worst day ever. Saffron Burrows almost kills herself, but notices an ad for short-term loft apartment rentals and goes for it, completely abandoning her apartment and all the stuff in it (Saffron isn't much of one for moving her stuff with her, it turns out). What follows is a kind of bisexual, white New York City "Last Holiday." Saffron starts spending money left and right, buying all kinds of swanky clothes and furniture for her apartment. She also buys a guitar, and a bunch of amps she doesn't really need (it looks like she's getting ready to host a rock concert in her loft) because of some childhood dream of owning a guitar that never got fulfilled. Oh! and before I forget, there's that bisexual thing: Saffron has sex with the guy who keeps delivering all her packages (Isaach De Bankole) and the gal who keeps delivering all her pizzas (Paz de la Huerta). All this without ever leaving the apartment! Things keep getting more and more implausible, to the point of utter laughability. All the characters, including the female lead, are totally two-dimensional, barely explained, and chock-full of stereotype fulfillment. Here's an example: the pizza delivery girl is both a) Italian and b) getting married to an abusive boyfriend with mob connections. Other characters, such as Saffron's boyfriend who breaks up with her in the first ten minutes of the movie, should seem more important than they appear (and they appear very little, mostly as incidental plot devices). Finally the whole plot structure collapses and the movie just goes flat, at which point it has the good sense to end. The thing that gets me the most about this movie isn't the terribly goofy plot, nor the more-intimate-than-necessary sex scenes. It's the message that materialism will heal you, and that an object can give you meaning and something to live for. "The Guitar" is more or less a female-empowered antithesis to "Fight Club." Where Edward Norton found emptiness and confusion in endless catalog shopping, Saffron Burrows seems to have found happiness. "The Guitar" tells us that shopping cures all ills, even, it turns out (spoiler alert) cancer. Reccommended movies: Fight Club: searching for meaning and masculinity in a comercially dominated culture. Last Holiday: At least it's supposed to be funny. Wit: A movie about cancer that's far more interesting and believable.
