"Youth Without Youth"
Tim Roth is great as an elderly Romanian professor of languages who is struck by lightning and made young again. Francis Ford Coppola's first film in ten years is visually inventive, dense and demanding - so naturally almost no one went to see it. It's off the wall, over the top, confounding and camp. Also very beautiful. A shot in the arm from a genuine artist that's miles ahead of the phoney art movies that copped all the acclaim in Aught Seven. |

Semi Pro
70's basketball yarn, with the likes of Will Ferrel, Andre Benjamin and Woody Harrelson. Not quite as funny or consistent as Talledga Nights or Blades of glory, but some LOL moments are evident.
3/5 |

Documentary on a 4 year old who stunned the art world. Interesting commentaries on modern art, fame, the power of marketing, and parenting. Recommended |

My local on Jiaozhou Lu / Wuding Lu,I have built up a good relationship over the last year with the owners, they always inform me if a new release is a Hao or Bu copy or not. |

"Bonnie and Clyde"
I first saw "Bonnie and Clyde" in 1967, when I was fifteen. I left the theater and sat on the curb and tried to absorb what I had just seen. What struck me then as never before was that a movie is a thing that people make - in this case some very gifted and gutsy people. Who were these people? How did they do it? I dug in my pocket and counted my change and bought another ticket and went back in to see it again.
With the advent of home video, and later, dvd, I never opted to add "Bonnie and Clyde" to my large and comprehensive collection. I had seen it so many times that I could quote every line. I could watch it on the inside of my eyelids anytime I chose. But the release of the 40th anniversary edition triggered a twinge of nostalgia, and I thought, "Oh, what the hell. . ." It's never looked better, and it's just as great as ever. |

I just watched this movie called Funny Games U.S.
It's got Naomi Watts and Tim Roth (both British actors playing Americans) and they play the part of a rich couple and their young son going up to their cabin for a holiday.
Two young guys come to their house and all hell breaks loose.
The version I saw is the American version but directed by the original version's director.
The style of acting and direction is very unique - there are no cutaway shots and sexy cutting of one scene to another and the acting is almost dead-pan. No soundtrack apart from cd's intentionally played by the actors and the opening and closing song. No special effects apart from one scene in the middle which comes out of nowhere and is just plain freaky.
That said it's one of the most gripping and disturbing psychological thrillers I've seen in a long time. Highly watchable and highly recommended. |

We need a version 2.0 of this thread. Been through the first 25, and the last 25 pages of this thread for a review of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, nothing... |
