The Fountain

Apr 12 2007

Aro­nofsky has done it again, with Hugh Jack­man and Rachel Weisz; this time pulling off a mag­na­ni­mous beauty — a love story span­ning a thou­sand years with a qui­ve­ring of death’s mea­ning. Clint Man­sell with the Kro­nos Quar­tet once again pro­vi­des another epic sound­track to match their pre­vious work made for Aronofsky’s Requiem for a Dream. Foun­tain is mag­ni­fi­cent to watch and feel, a mar­vel. Just look. 

Dumplings

Apr 10 2007

A pretty strange and mes­sed up Chi­nese film about kee­ping your youth at all costs. Don’t make the same mis­take I did and try and eat food during this movie.

Pure slow motion testosterone, 300

Mar 31 2007


300. No more, no less. Nothing more, nothing less. It’s a fea­ture length trai­ler of epic pro­por­tions by a direc­tor “with a machine gun for a dick”.

Hard Candy

Mar 29 2007

Saw this a cou­ple of nights ago. Pretty hard to watch if you are a guy. I’ve heard peo­ple state that this sti­mu­la­tes all sorts of deba­tes about pae­dophi­lia and vigi­lan­tism; per­so­nally it seems like this extreme set­ting is merely jus­ti­fi­ca­tion for a graphic tor­ture film (so is the Lion’s gate way) invol­ving some crazy bitch attac­king some pro­po­sed kiddie-lover. The true menace to society would be illus­tra­ted in a sic­ke­ning role rever­sal, honestly I believe this film achie­ves little more than some light (albeit gritty) enter­tain­ment. Plus I pre­fer soft gums.

Tideland

Mar 20 2007

Terry Gilliam back on form with a stun­ning per­for­mance by Jode­lle Fer­land. I feel like a per­son of few words today so I shall just say that I really loved this film and then show you some beau­ti­ful pictures:
