"I am just going to post 1 film, but i will think of another 4 !!I just don't know why so many people loved that film Atonementfirst of all, things that I liked about it 1. CINEMATOGRAPHY It had very nice shoots, nice light shadow play and color desaturation2. PERIOD EXPLORATION Looks like they did they homework, All dresses, buildings, context was pretty accurate.3. MUSIC The typewriting thing match with the music was very clever, in general the score was good.--- THINGS I DIDNT LIKE1. AFTER THE FIRST TURNING POINT, NOTHING HAPPEN So, this girl gets raped, he is charged, she is in love with a woman and promises to come back, instead of jail goes to war, they both die. A writer turns up and said, it was a fiction and i am dying.I mean. It took so long to start, and once it started, nothing happen, we just see beautiful shoots of the 2d war.2. NO CHARACTER TRANSFORMATION3. POINTLESS SCENES Like the first 5 minutes with the girl writing a play... the story of the t ... " [More]

"Just finished watching Wong Kar Wai My Blueberry Nights . It was all the signatures of the director, subtle and not so subtle sexual analogies. The whole film is an allegory to attach and deattachment in relationships. In 2046, Days of Being Wild and In the mood for love he explored similar aspects of life, but this movie approaches love on a total different way, being his first English speaking film. It follows the story of a girl trying to forget about a love on a road trip, this journey starts on a Cafe where he is desperately looking for his ex-partner, but her search turns into a very curious friendly relationship with the Cafe owner, who seems to have his own theories about forgotten loves. During her trip she meets different characters that somehow are experiencing relationship problems and are desperately finding a way to cope with them, as she travels around the country she learns from them and grows with them, always writing postcards of her experiences to the Cafe owne ...

"1. Transformers !!! The trailer looked awesome, like there was gonna be a sort of a good story and less cheesy acting and plot. I remember watching the trailer i went like I HAVE to see this movie.2. The Village, this looked like a monster thriller movie that was gonnna be full of sick scenes like sixth sense and the 10 minute happy dancing sequence really made me think: They cheated me !3. Ocean's Twelve Well the traielr was just Colors, Text and good music. It just had a feeling that it was gonna be a great film, and the trailer itself was so good, like: Hey i am not showing any scene you have to wait and see. And well, I wait and see and ... ..

Un Chien Andalou

Definition of Art and Entertain ...
By tinokiev in Asian Art Cinema
"Once on film school I was suppose to give a presentation on " Un chien Andalu" by Luis Bunue, the topic of the presentation was "Made to shock ?". Some people argue that he made the movie just to shock people, and that it was that fact who made him famouse rather than the actual aestethics or imaginary behind the film. It was such a hard topic to discuss. On one side, like Dali, he put so many subtext on the art direction revealing aspects of his own psique, but in the other side, they were the new surrealist wave and in fact did wanted to shock people as well, for the sake of it, as an instrument of revolution I guess. The problem with art I pointed then, is that you can put an apple on an empty room, take a photograph, hang it of an art gallery and people will think "oh that is art", and everyone will find diferent meanings to it. But many people will think, that is just an apple, and it doesnt try to say anything. The ultimate truth about whatever something is art or not i thin ... " [More]

By tinokiev in Asian Art Cinema
"Personally I often find myself trying to classify or rate a film, specially asian ones and not finding a term or a category to put it on. It is like " a wong kar wai" film. Wong Kar Wai himself is a category of his own approach to aesthetics's, or you could said a "takashi mike" film and you know you are going to expect lots of blood. But still are hard to categorized. You cannot say "The postmen in the mountain" is a father-son movie only, or that "scent of the green papaya" is maturity. Etc. I think everyone is clear that there are just movies that do not fall into a genre and explore here and there into different categories that we recognize. And many of those movies ended up being referred to as "Art Film" or "Experimental". Anyway, I called this group "Asian Art Cinema" and while I was looking through some of the films I put in I found myself wondering. Is this and this film an "Asian art" film ?. And many people will probably argue and disagree with my concept or art. B ... " [More]

"I went to watch this film with my dad, I was 11 or 12 years old. I didnt actually cried until I met my dad after the film ( cinema was full and we had to sit in different chairs). This film showcase a series of injustices comited against an Irish man and his that who happened to be at the wrong time in the wrong spot. It features a very strong and difficult relationship between father and son ,without trying to be its primary objective. It is a very well made combination of politics, prision stories, family, social classes, love and discrimination. The main cast it is incredible and there are many particular characters all around the film. It has really strong scenes of torture that contrast with other beautiful scenes like the burning papers falling down the prision windows. It is a film worth to watch. " [More]

"Loser with stupid parents is in love with hot chick interested in muscles, finds himself a robot car who choses him to save the world from an invasion of evil robots, during the process he gets the girl and saves the world.So first you get a terrible cast, fix them into cliche stereotypes, then come up with a bunch of punch line jokes about sex, puberty and robots. Spend one hour and a half trying to discover the secret of where the mistery, why the robots want it, etc., and suddenly make a random team of secret agents come and explain everything in 5 minutes.Take the secondary characters that you involved while trying to explain the whole thing (blonde fake australian girl and big fat hacker) and dissapear them from the existence. Take the main girl and turn her into a super tech geek, Get the good soldier to come back out of nowhere and help the hero to save the earth.Spend millions of dollars in animating random fights that look real and are no longer than 5 minutes in total, an ...
