5-min Review
I could not make enough time to make a full review on the films that I’m supposed to do here. So in stead of ‘not posting’ day after day, I thought about a possible way. That is- very brief reviews of the flicks I like to mention. Here goese 3 short reviews.
I’m a bit late to watch this oscar-winning movie. I started to watch it with high expectation and I must say that I got disappointed when I finished watching this movie, the same thing happened with “The Departed” last year. What happened? Is the oscar committee is not doing their job right or is it just me??
I liked the screenplay and visual style of the movie. But the rest is…. well couldn’t match my expectations probably. And the cocky acting of Bardem disappointed me big times. I liked very much what he did in “Mar Adentro“. 6/10
The Diving Bell and The ButterFly (2007)
Another Oscar-hyped film and another disappointment. The plot didn’t seem novel, cinematography couldbe better, far far better, scenes seemed ‘not associating’ with one another. I liked the performance of Mathieu Amalric and the opening scenes were extra-ordinary. It was so promising for the rest of the film which according to me, could not be maintainted. 7/10
Another oscar-nominated film, though not that much hyped. Another film with outstanding opening scenes….. another disappointment at last (is it really just me???).
Halfway through the film, I was so exited about this flick that I called one of my friend and recommended him to watch this movie as soon as possible. It was middle of the night.. then with the progress of the film, it slowly became a over-emotional, emotion-burdened snobby film, and I called that very film in the morning and told him not to watch the movie on my recommendation. “If you want to watch, then watch it on your own!” 6/10
