Hitchcock :bowdown:

i just re-watched burn after reading and it was exactly as i remembered.

really uneven film. the coens tried to get the actors to appear almost slapstick. it mostly annoyed me(pitt pulled it off well). there are a few great scenes, and handfuls of mediocre ones. the script is passable.

i really hope the coens do more comedies in the future. and i would hope they would take some lessons from how this turned out. it could've been special with the cast they assembled.

Last thing I saw was Jackass 3d probaly one of the most disgusting movies made so far. I think they tried to hard to be funny in this one. But they did have so funny stuff in it.

It was okay. The title is very misleading it should be "through the looking glass." I guess not very much people are aware that there is a sequel or something so this would appeal more?

Decided to have a double feature. This is arguabally the most ****ed up movie I've ever seen.

If you think that's good, find a way of watching this and prepare to be amazed ;)

^ Not bad, but not that spectacular either. On the plus the, the initial premise is intriguing, I loved the look and feel of the misty trench settings, most of the actors did pretty good jobs and it was a pleasure to see Kris Marshall cop it. Too many plotholes and inadequately explained resolutions though and, for what's supposed to be a horror movie, it really wasn't very unsettling at all. Not to me anyway.

^ And I just thought I'd revisit this ol' chestnut as well. It's about the 10th time I've watched this, and I'm still not bored of it in the slightest - definitely in my top 10 of all time.

Perhaps I watched it and didn't think it was interesting.

The French Connection (1971)
I had been really looking forward to this movie but I have to say I was somewhat disappointed by it. It had some great moments and the soundtrack was terrific but overall it left me kind of cold.

This is the first time you have seen it?

It is certainly not an absolute classic as some would lead you to believe but it's still a fantastic film and that ending is quite simply superb. I thought Scheider and Hackman make a great team and prove what underrated actors they are.

I have never read any Bukowski on which this film is loosely based upon via his fictional characters and just like the main character (played with aplomb by Dillon) it lacks focus and becomes a little too repetitive in it's themes. Yes you drink, you write, you meander through life- what's new?

It lacks an insight-fullness of say American Splendor that at least had a sly humour behind it's depiction of everyday drudgery.

Maybe if I was familiar with Bukowski's writing then I could maybe appreciate it more.
