Apollo 18

-
Point Blank
- Capture your attention from the very first shot
- Great twists and turns in the plot
- Only 84 minutes, a breeze from start to end
-
Pina
- Open up a whole new world of Tanztheater to me
- Tribute to the late choreographer Pina Bausch
- Actual footages of several dance performances which can only be seen most of time in Wuppertal, Germany, which is a nice and unique city as shown in the movie.
-
Pearl Jam 20
- Good remembrance (or introduction) to the golden era of Grunge
- Rare live footages
- Makes you wanna go to not only one, but all of their concerts asap
-
Midnight In Paris
- Woody Allen’s best work in years. More on the romance and message, less on the black humor.
- Know your 1920s writers and artists
- Paris is simply irresistible
-
One Day
- A combined, expanded and sad version of Before Sunrise and Before Sunset
- The makeups for 20-year before and after are incredible
- Love and cherish while you still can
-
The Help
- Know your history
- Affectionate acting
- Encouraging and thought-provoking
-
Colombiana
- Written and produced by Luc Besson
- Zoe Saldana is wonderful!
- A lot of cool actions
-
After Marnie Watson kills her abusive husband in self-defense, she is condemned to house arrest… only to discover that the house is possessed by the enraged and violent spirit of her dead husband.
- Better than Panic Room - the setting is in an ordinary house with no (well, maybe a little) special rooms or traps.
- Worse than Panic Room - you can actually see the ghost. I always think the scariest is the unseen.
- Famke Janssen’s performance is surprisingly solid. Her eyes are absorbing.
-
Suicide Room
Humiliated at school, a spoiled Warsaw teen seeks solace in a sinister virtual world, the “Suicide Room.”
- A surprisingly good Polish melodrama with emotional acting
- The music is effective
