Ilsa who?
Just kidding. I would never diss Ilsa. Ilsa is not in the same category as the two I mentioned. They pretend to be high concept but arent. Ilsa wasnt trying to be anything more than a film made to shock people. If I sounded cranky I apologize. See White Ribbon itll give you chills.

Brothers (2004). A tour de Force of acting, direction, editing, and camera work. No over the top gadgets need be implemented to unravel this wonderfully believable flick of a family whose chair is kicked out from underneath them. The story is about putting the pieces back together, that intangible glue that is either present or not, whose presence is a requisite salve for a familial rent. And just when things begin to heal, the unthinkable happens. As stated, every aspect of this flick comes together perfectly. From grandparents to the young children, the acting was top-notch. They must have a film school in kindergarten. The direction was more than competent. The editing: sublime. The camera work was busy and intense, with close-ups that divulged that which cannot be told. The score was always there for emotional support. A wonderful watch that is probably too much for Hollywood and its sheep-like audience. Merci beaucoup.

Toy Story 3 (3d)
Pointlessly 3d IMO, only maybe two small scenes actually felt like they used it...a flower, and some drops on a glass window...other than that I was most impressed by the actual titles. It was maybe better than the second one, not as good as the first. I don't see fans of the overall series getting let down. Decent way to end the series.

Finally saw this. Nasty is not a strong enough term. I had heard about this short for a while. It lives up to its reputation. I actually cringed. I was shocked and offended. I like this flick. Next more guinea pig.

The Wolfman 2010
Finally got this from NetFlix and I was a little disappointed. I liked it overall, just thought it could have been done better as far as the story.
Not that I wanted a direct copy of the 1941 classic, but I thought, at times, this one veered too far away from the original. I thought the CGI was over the top as well. Certain parts looked too cartoony. Maybe I'm being to picky, I don't know. Anyway, the wife and I liked it, I think I was just expecting too much from it. |

Clash of the Titans (2010); Enjoyed this, loved the CGI, but couldn't help thinking it took itself too seriously. Remembering the first one (i did like the homaage to it in this film), I found myself missing the quirkiness of the original. How can a film that f***s up mythology so badly try to be dark, brooding and serious. Did think Fines was cool as Hades, Neeson was weak and there was a distinct lack of other Gods. Demi-god Io was so bloody smug, I just wanted to swing for her everytimme she appeared on screen.
It was OK to watch once but get the bloody facts right! IT WAS BELLEROPHON-OK Hollywood!
