Opening 29th May / Prejudices without Pride

Last movies of May!!! (June looks good)

1. Henry Poole is Here: I don't know what my feelings are but I know they're not too good. Probably not seeing it.

2. Man on Wire: Oscar + Original Version= Seeing it.

3. Män som hatar Kvinnor (Los hombres que no amaban a las mujeres): The novel has been an editorial boom but I haven't read it. I don't know what to do. Probably not seeing it.

4. The Uninvited: I tend to hate horror movies because they scare me too much (I had trouble sleeping after Mullholand Dr., not to mention an actual terror movie). Not seeing it.

5. The Boat that Rocked: This looks good. I hope I like it. Seeing it.

Not a bad weekend after all...

They call me fate

After watching Il y a longtemps que je t'aime for the first time (la première fois) I learned that today is Kristin Scott Thomas's birthday. Joyeux anniversaire!!

By the way... what a performance.

Those sixty-minutes portions of time...


She bought the flowers herself.


She did not shift the flours herself.


She... She just did it herself.

Opening 22nd May / Prejudices without Pride

Films that opened yesterday in Zaragoza:

1. Good: WWII once again... Not seeing it.

2. Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian: This is very appealing for one single reason AMY ADAMS. Still, it looks terrible. Not seeing it.

3. Vratné lahve: What is this? I like lesser known movies to arrive here but I tend to like it more when I have heard about them. Not seeing it.

4. Pranzo di Ferragosto: Italian movie about what to do with old people on holidays. Is leaving them at a gas station demodé? Probably not seeing it.

Another boring weekend I'll spend watching Nine's trailer.

Opening 15th May / Prejudices without pride

The movies opening in Zaragoza today are:

1. Angels & Demons: Never saw The Da Vinci Code, but I read the book and it was entertaining crap. Crap nevertheless. Not seeing it.

2. Cosas insignificantes: Mexican-Spanish film I've heard nice things about. No butterflies in my stomach anyway. Probably not seeing it.

3. Salt of this sea: Some movie I never heard about. I have not an opinion. Probably not seeing it.

4. Fighting: This looks plainly embarrasing. Not seeing it.

Baaaaad weekend. I'll stay at home watching Nine's trailer over and over and over again.

Shame

What a moving (and disturbing) movie! I loved it. It won the top prize at Málaga and it could have some luck with the Goyas. Amazing performances, a great script, beautiful cinematography... The second great Spanish film of the year (last year none of which I saw were beyond 7.5/10). Really, really good.

Opening 8th May / Prejudices without Pride

Movies opening today in Zaragoza:

1. Genova: Michael Winterbottom's film with Colin Firth and Catherine Keener. I haven't made up my mind on my desires to see it. Probably not seeing it.

2. Hannah Montana: The Movie. With nearly 7000 votes it has an average of 2.7/10 on Imdb. It could have 10/10, I wouldm't be caught dead at a theatre watching it. Not seeing it.

3. Last chance Harvey. I've been wanting to see this ever since I learned it existed. Seeing it.

4. Séraphine. The Slumdog Millionare in France (7 César awards). Not very appealing anyway. Probably not seeing it.

5. Star Trek. Never in my life have I seen anything related to the Star Trek franchise. Will my avoidance continue? Who knows? Probably seeing it.

6. Fly me to the moon. Flies. In the moon. Animated film. And it's not Up. Not seeing it.

A mildly interesting weekend...

Volver a Volver

"Hoy me es remotamente imposible"

Like May Water (May)


Boredverine

X-Men Origins: Wolverine is actually in my Top 5 of movies of 2009. Did I mention I've only seen five movies? God, this was boring!!!! Hugh!! More The Fountain and less Wolverine!!
Really, if every slow motion scene had been at actual pace the movie would be three minutes long. The plot is boring, characters are boring, performers are either boring or bored (with the exception of Hugh, he looks like he had a great time shooting), dialogues are simply embarrasing...
The movie is bad and what's worse: boring!!!!!

Gran Torino sucks

I'm a bully!!


Let the right one in is a MASTERPIECE. Loved it.

Though the actor playing the old bully looks exactly and disturbingly like me. I haven't found any pics yet but if I do I'll give proof. Scary...
Both main actors are amazingly natural. Gifted kids.
Anyway the movie is great, great, great.
