The Celestine Prophecy

By Frank ⋅ April 22, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

This has to be the worst movie I ever saw. The dialog is so bad it’s hilarious, and the rest of the script isn’t any better. The acting is an abomination, and the set is made of plastic. I really hope this was a low-low-low-budget movie, because that would at least justify my half star [...]

Unfinished Sky

Beautiful little drama of Dutch origin set in the Ozzie outback. Nice flow of the story where bit by bit the two leading characters reveal their story. Good performance by William McInnes and Dutch actress Monic Hendrickx.

Pretty Persuasion

Moderate as a drama, moderate as a comedy. Evan Rachel Wood proves herself yet again to be a very talented actress. Although it’s hard to shake the image of the timid girl she played in Once and Again.

Pretty good actually.

My Blueberry Nights

Attempt at serious roadmovie/girl-learns-life-lessons film. But it’s just not very original, nor engaging. Despite the efforts of a top cast, with good acting debut by Jones.

Five Minutes of Heaven

By Frank ⋅ April 7, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Powerful to be taken on the journey when killer and witness meet again. The setting of the Northern Ireland conflict is chosen well and surprisingly topical. Film has all the right ingredients, story and topic are superb. Storytelling could have been better, Nesbitt is overacting a little which starts to annoy.
