Re:Episode 3: KEY WITNESS
By patches in Butterknife
"I laughed out loud at that scene... woke the cat up, spilled my tea. It was funny, not sadistic. How could you NOT take a picture? That scene made me finally like this series. I was unsure of whether or not I would give Buitterknife more of my time, but now I'm hooked. That sort of stuff happens, she wasn't in any real danger, she wasn't saying "please" or "it hurts, help me"... no harm.If it turns out to be a sadistic, if that was the intent, then please don't come to my house. Their relationship is real, it's funny, it's healthy. If you can't laugh about all that kind of crazy shit that happens, then you might as well just stop watching (and make that therapy session every two weeks instead of every four). " [More]

 "I know it's really late at night... I mean early in the morning (yipes), but that was fun. I might hate it in the daylight, but for right now it was quite a silly romp. I'm going to have to admit that I loved the punch-dance sequence patterned after Kevin Bacon's scene in Footloose. Priceless. I'm a big fan of people on fire, so yeah.It's also great that he's trying to raise money to pay for his step father's heart transplant, so he can get better, so that he can fight him, and earn his respect. The younger brother kinda looks like Bud Court circa Harold and Maude era too. " [More]

 "I saw SuperBad on Friday with the Spout crew at Celebration Village. It was really hilarious. I couldn't help myself from clapping during parts, and nudging Victor with my elbow every other joke.I really like Michael Cera as Evan in this, he's so sensitive and tender in parts. I loved him as George Michael in Arrested Development... So nervous and jumpy...The whole McLovin story arc was absolutely priceless...The Spout Mobile part was fun too! " [More]

 "I liked watching this. In fact I'm still watching the credits right now, as I write. I liked the meta stories, the time lapses and the narration. Parts of it were quite funny, parts were frightening. I like that it took place during one goose hunt, but spanned hundreds of years. It made me feel close to the people in the stories, and new that they are still living outside of the movie too.There are only a few movies, books, stories that can support the characters enough that you can imagine them outside of the time in which their lives were captured. This is one of those films.Thank you Palm Pictures! " [More]

 "I just finished this movie, "The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things" and I'm thinking it was... interesting. I'm not a fan of watching movies about unfit mothers, child abuse, drug addicts or meth labs, but I can only imagine that it was even more unpleasant for Jeremy to actually experience.The camera-work was very interesting during the drug trip sequences, that's something positive I can say...The stop-motion animation was very creative. Asia Argneto makes for a brilliant unfit, unstable, unwed mother. I can't imagine what was going through little Jeremy's head, it's a miracle that he made it out alive, and can take care of himself, let alone write a book about the experience. If you liked Tideland, by Terry Gilliam, (god help you) you'll like this one. " [More]

Could have been a lot stronger

 "Clean could have been a lot stronger.It was if there were amazing things happening, but the camera wasn't able to capture them properly. It was as though each shot was catching the actors on a bad take...I did, however, like the idea of each character, and was anticipating their fall from grace, or lift from the dust. Each individual didn't live up to their glowing introduction however. Maggie Cheung gave several scenes her best try, but wasn't entirely there for most of the movie, she didn't seem present.Where I think she did excel is in the final scenes with her young son Jay. She is trying to relate to him, but he's resisting at each interaction. She is able to read him though, and he can see through her easily. He wants the truth, and he can smell her bullshit, even athis tender age.There were several moments that were closer to hittng the mark, but all and all it felt flat, played and unfortunate. " [More]
