(2008)

Inhabited Island

This is not a movie.


Well, and this is another Russian blockbuster, which ran headlong mass. Frankly, I was very disappointing the many positive reviews. When I got home after the session, did not think I would see so many possessing the movie reviews (calms the only film score). [...]

Guardian, The (2006)

Lifesaver


An interesting film about the difficult life of marine rescue. I was very surprised at the quality photography, scenery and excellent actors. Timing of the movie is little more than two hours, but this seems little that is surprising. The plot is very interesting and most importantly a topic to see me in a novelty. Tape is divided into several parts the life of one of the protagonist – Ben Randell (Kevin Costner), a real hero and immortal rescue people from water. After a failed mission, he loses friends, and he almost dies, to return to the form it is sent to school for training lifeguards, where we see the second main character – Jake Fischer (Ashton Kutcher), which beats all records Randell. Schooling in rescue very, very severely, and of course, more than half are eliminated. It is realistic to show all the tactics and training in the water. [...]

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007)

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World


I looked yesterday, the third Pirates … УЖОС. Such Hollywood garbage I have not seen for a long time. And this despite the fact that I'm quite normal digest films of a similar genre. Recently, for example here, the third part of the spider looked and she was quite pleased. But it is … Even at 30 minutes of this insanity I'm all flushed am overflowing with rage, because fully aware that the creators of "works" absolutely did not think about the audience, but only on the number of attendants that they cut down with them. How came to our screens this miscarriage of Hollywood, is not difficult to guess. Similarly, in America, I beg your pardon, fed cattle at the slaughterhouse. He was initially fed with different artificial chemicals and food additives, and then allowed to mince. The same principle, I'm sorry and here. [...]

Pusher (1996)

Bandyugany

It `s fucking sick, man.


Vic: What are you watching?

Frank: Just some stupid movie with Johnny Depp.

Vic: Who `s that?

Danish "drug dealer" (aka "Pusher") was pretty powerful crime films and a handful of small bonuses, which are slightly lower. The plot, if not go into details, is quite simple. Over 105 minutes of the movie hid an entire week of life as a drug dealer Frank: Monday us in a rather casual manner about the main characters, as early as Friday in the life gopovatogo toughs in a sports suit the present apocalypse. Frank, at the same time like a young Tony Soprano, and actor Sergei Veksler, first goes to her grandmother, then goes to grandmother more. From this situation, he tries to escape by all means, but the law of criminal life easy arranges everything in its place. To climb even on a small throne you hardly anyone will help, but as soon fall back, then give you a noble creature, and the acceleration will meet friends from all around. Reminiscent of a brilliant "The Long Good Friday" (of which necessarily in the coming days), but only at the level pusher. [...]

Traffic Warden (2004)

Traffic warden

Love and fishes.


In England, can not stand the valet parking, you certainly know it.

And I started to watch this short film in anticipation of what is now on the miserable Inspector mock all the heroes who have time for 10 minutes of the film.

Fortunately, my expectations have deceived me. When you are thinking to see this movie, you wait for 10 minutes of laughter.

It starts normally: Regular job customary morning inspector. But then he notices a beautiful girl in the window, and away we go …

She leaves the house, holding a fish aquarium, and accidentally loses her handkerchief. Inspector that handkerchief selects and decides that it is a good chance to get acquainted with its owner. But she had already gone, and he has no choice but to run after. But then he was not without podlyanki from bus conductor, who, with insolent grin watching Inspector attempts to overtake the bus, which left the girl.

And then start touring madness … inspectors were still catching the bus, and, bending in half from shortness of breath, stretching girl filthy handkerchief. [...]

(500) Days of Summer (2009)

500 Days of Summer

This is a story about a guy and a girl, but not a love story.


There are romantic comedies, where you sit with a sad expression on his face, a couple of times you smile at the folly of the movie and get out of the theater with a sense of wasted time.

There are romantic comedies that are very, very cute, sweet and sickly, with a very nice guy, playing for some reason, a loser in the end must remain with a very pretty girl who is not really a bitch, but simply "the dream of any mother." And out of the theater you go out in principle with the upbeat mood, but you do not leave the thought: "Well, do not happen?".

And there are such romantic comedies as "500 Days of Summer". There's no happy ending End, but then walking down the street and think that after all life is a success.

"This is a story about a guy and a girl, but not a love story," says the very beginning of the movie, and it is true. Each of them has a screw loose: He's an incurable romantic and believes in love (strange, right?), But she did not bother about the relationship and just does what he wants. The usual Hollywood plot suggests that sooner or later, her heart melt and it all ends with a kiss on the magnificent sunset and stuff blah blah blah, but here it's different, such as vital and real.

Equilibrium (2002)

Equilibrium

I feel …


Just confess, very long time to watch this movie. Moreover, began about five times and stretched no more than fifteen minutes. It seemed to me that the movie is boring for its "military" nature, which takes place almost in the second minute films. And no one knows how much so extended, if not "His Majesty Case. And now I'm glad that show did take place. After all, as it turned out the film very moving, profound, and, of course, interesting. It addresses one of the most important spheres of human life, namely spiritual.

The authors attempt to show obezdushennyh people, in my opinion, was very successful. Faceless streets, faceless crowd, deprived of the slightest contrast, people struck voices, talking only about the great mission …

Equilibrium – a film about how important it is to feel, understand and feel the importance of the events, moments, sounds and colors and on what will be a life without all this. [...]

A Love Song for Bobby Long (2004)

Treasure

Can we read too many books?


Chapter One → Our History

A love song for Bobby Long – a story about how to lose and find, to forgive and try to understand, do not be afraid to say publicly what on his mind and be tolerant, love and happiness, loneliness and self-discovery and meaning of life on attachment and a lie, the sincerity and hypocrisy, the fear of being themselves and finally about the life and death.

I like to tell the story, not the movie. Our story about a man, having tasted the loneliness in full. Days, weeks spent with a glass in one hand and a small volume of Moliere in the other. Intelligent conversations and drunken delirium – that's the whole routine life Bobby Long in New Orleans. Bobby was a log, which sailed with the tide, without desires, aspirations and goals. [...]

Kick-Ass (2010)

Pipets

"They are taking revenge on briskly, cheerfully tasteful"


Superhero Movie will never be the same. Robert Rodriguez proved it into a movie "Sin City", the best and perhaps the only film-comics, which is on the screen remains the same comic book, not losing, during the transformation to the screen, not an ounce of its richness, but rather to complement and enrich the universe of sin city This unique and benchmark project of its kind. And like all unique, the city could not serve as a model for imitation, the best of which have become cynical "Keepers" Zack Snyder, who openly mocked the noble heroism, burrowing deeper into the grave by not only worn cliches, but the heroic genre films in general. So the arrival of "Peptsa" after the Guardians, was not that predictable, it was simply inevitable.

It is pleasant when the heap of modern cinematic trash come across really delicious movies and Pipets it is – crazy parody bordering on "Shoot 'em" and "Grindhouse" is itself one big punch, but played with the most brutal way, take that literally – bad health, especially those who did not hesitate and simply not knowing what the film is against violence, cruelty, immorality, and immorality on screen.

If you are free from stereotypes. Ready to relax (and pipets is primarily a holiday) of insipid, banal and boring, stamped heroic shooters, then Pipets you go with a bang, and will be welcomed as a breath of fresh air, charging the cheerfulness and positive.

If we talk about the movie itself, the story it is child's play, contrast, encircled with broad strokes on the background of contemporary reality. The main character Ubivashka, along with Daddy are completely sadistic game with the underworld, ruthlessly as to the victims as well and the audience, taking revenge for Mama (the result would be a cool character), be heard by lynching, while the nerd – a failure PIPETS after schematic voiceover monologue disguised in a diving suit and stand on the protection of the law and justice, in this case and continuing to remain fully Lohoma, as in life, and on the heroic endeavors.
