Re:Episode 4: BONGO BOARD

"So I've seen all four episodes, with number 1 being my favorite because of the word exchange between the detective and the man outside the apartment complex. I found that pretty amusing. Anyway, about relationships, it seems like the detective changes slightly when he gets home to be with his wife. The same might be true for her, but we don't see her work day. Theirs some give and take and thats always good. I'm not an expert on relationships so I can't comment further, but they seem happy.

The detective has got that. But I can't analyze anymore than that. I mean these shorts are very, very 'short." They should go a little longer perhaps?

If you have ever been or are interested in the languages of the world, and how they came about, you'll undoubtedly like this movie for those such attributes, if not anything else. This is a historicaly set movie, based in the 10 century, a time still in the remnants of the once great Roman Empire. We can definetly see this played out. For instance, theirs one scene early on in the movie where Ibn (Antonio Banderas) and his mentor (played by Omar Sharif) are in the main tent of the vikings, lead by Buliwyf (played by Vladimir Kulich, a hugely underworked actor in my opinion). Ibn and his mentor of ... " [More]
