Fahrenheit 9/11

I’m sure you’ve already heard it. This is a film about George Bush, a scathing critique of the man, his presidency, his policy, his war, his family, his friends, business and political associates, his lies, stupidity, arrogance, irresolution, opportunism, and legitimacy. I’m sure I forgot a few. And its true, Moore exploits every opportunity at his disposal to challenge, accuse, or humiliate the President of the United States and those who surround him.

It gives the film a scattered effect, as though Moore is painting his portrait with a shotgun.

Don't Move

could tell you that the performances of this film are consummate, outstanding, subtle. I could tell you that the cinematography is stunning, innovative, affective, and decisively employed. I could tell you that the direction is sure-handed, natural, brilliant, etc., and I could think up all sorts of adjectives to describe the editing, the soundtrack, and all the films composite parts in turn. And it would all be pretty much true.
But that would be stupid. Go see the movie.

Inside man

Just because it is a quintessential Hollywood film doesn't automatically mean its crap. So what's it about? Four guys go into a New Yorker Bank and take hostages. The Police arrives and waits outside for them. A cat and mouse game begins and lots of twists happen from now on. Who wants to play for time? The police, the bank robber, or both?

Director, Spike Lee, mainly concentrates on crafting a story but also leaves space for developing characters.

Solo

Delve into the world of crime in Sydney – corrupt, crooked and disturbingly realistic. Meet Jack Barrett (Colin Friels), the protagonist, introduced in the opening scene as he carves up a cadaver, so expertly. He then drops it, piece by piece into the sea, finally vomiting. The job is done.

Jack has been entrenched in crime since his return from the Vietnam war, some 30 years ago.

Little Miss Sunshine

Wildly entertaining and side-splittingly hilarious, Little Miss Sunshine is a movie that celebrates the inner loser in us all. It isn’t an underdog story where the slow kid wins the race, or where the ugly ducking becomes the beautiful swan, or where the small kid gets the best of the bullies. The slow kid stays last, the ugly ducking stays ugly, and brother, you better believe that that small kid will get his underwear pulled right over his head.
