#014 Movie Challenge: February

afieryescape — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 07:47:28 GMT

01//016 ~ The Ugly Truth [2009] (3/5)
Your usual romcom, nothing special.

02//017 ~ Two Of Us - A Film about Mates Of State [2004] (4/5)
Cute documentation about the band, tad shakey but really shows you who they are as people.

03//018 ~ 7 Vírgenes [2005] (4/5)
Strong stuff.

04//019 ~ Lies my Mother told Me [2005] (1/5)
Ugh, horrible. Everyone's performance was less than convincing and absolutely everything about it made me wonder why I even downloaded this.

05//020 ~ Veronika Decides to Die [2009] (4/5)
Sarah Michelle Gellar does a great job here. Loved this.

06//021 ~ My Sister's Keeper [2009] (5/5)
I wasn't sure whether I could cope with this movie as it deals with a topic I'm more than touchy about, and yes there were plenty of tears, but it was so worth it. Really really moving and cleverly made.

07//022 ~ Julie & Julia [2009] (4/5)
Meryl Streep in this made me want to break things, but Amy Adams was adorable (though a little bit creepy with her Julia Child obsession).

08//023 ~ Serenity [2005] (5/5)
Yeah yeah after marathoning through the entire series I was a little biased and fangirly-blinded when I watched this, but point still stands: this is big. If I can admit that even after they killed [INSERT NAME], then that's gotta mean something.

09//024 ~ Hachiko - A Dog's Story [2009] (4/5)
Didn't wanna watch this at first because... Richard Gere? But it then turns out this really is a dog's story. Not much Richard Gere there! And it was pretty loveable (as corny as it was, who cares).

10//025 ~ Don't Come Knocking [2005] (3/5)
Slightly underwhemled by this. Have been wanting to watch this for quite a while but then when I did I didn't really see the point in it. Shame.

11//026 ~ Dark Water [2005] (3/5)
The menu on the DVD was the scariest thing about this movie. So many pointless and dodgy characters and background infos!

12//027 ~ The Vicious Kind [2009] (5/5)
I can't tell you why I loved this movie as much as I did, it was just... real. Great dialogues and one-liners as well as impressive "quiet" moments.

13//028 ~ Dorian Gray [2009] (2/5)
Oh blargh, this movie. Unimpressed with almost everyone that was in it, especially guy that played Dorian Gray. Just... blargh.

14//029 ~ Where the Wild Things Are [2009] (3/5)
This definitely did not live up to the hype every created around it. It was adorable at times, but all in all it was just a bit of a let-down.

15//030 ~ Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince [2009] (3/5)
This too let me down. I don't know why but after loving the shit out of the first 5 films this left me massively unimpressed and I don't know if that's the movie's fault or me actually not caring anymore.

16//031 ~ The Spiderwick Chronicles [2008] (4/5)
Cuter than I expected! Sure, it's Disney-ish but awww.

#013 Movie Challenge: January

afieryescape — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 20:23:43 GMT

01//001 ~ (500) Days Of Summer [2009] (5/5)
Today's High Fidelity. Absolutely wonderful. Zooey Deschanel is too sweet to be true.

02//002 ~ Post Grad [2009] (2/5)
Lame and kinda pointless. Not even Jane Lynch and J.K. Simmons could save this.

03//003 ~ The Final Destination [2009] (2/5)
Huge disappointment. Weakest part of the series.

04//004 ~ Samba in Mettmann [2004] (3/5)
Light fun for a lazy afternoon. Hape's enjoyable as ever.

05//005 ~ Sex and Breakfast [2007] (3/5)
Nice idea, yet sort of dismal.

06//006 ~ Zombieland [2009] (3/5)
Frankly I had difficulties paying much attention after I spent the first 30 minutes trying to figure out if they went for rubbish or if it had just gone wrong.

07//007 ~ The Bucket List [2007] (5/5)
Didn't expect to enjoy this as much as I did. Loved it!

08//008 ~ The Day The Earth Stood Still [2008] (1/5)
Time of waste. Such a waste of time.

09//009 ~ Up In The Air [2009] (5/5)
Favorite of the month. This movie deserves every nomination it got and more. Stunning work.

10//010 ~ Year One [2009] (2/5)
As a huge Jack Black and Michael Cera fan it pains me to say that this just didn't do it for me.

11//011 ~ The Time Traveler's Wife [2009] (4/5)
Cried a great deal during this movie. It's a total chick-flick, sure, but it's good for what it is.

12//012 ~ Earth [2007] (5/5)
Beautiful pictures. Sad I missed this on the big screen.

13//013 ~ Das Leben der Anderen [2007] (4/5)
Impressive piece.

14//014 ~ The Night Listener [2006] (2/5)
Incomprehensible. Had no idea how to feel about any of the characters, which is odd given strong actors like Robin Williams, Toni Collette and Sandra Oh.

15//015 ~ Sherlock Holmes [2009] (5/5)
Brilliant combination of sex, action and humor! Guy Ritchie deserves a pet on the back, RDJ impersonates the greatest version of Holmes imagineable. He and Jude Law as Watson work disgustingly well together.

Introduction

afieryescape — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 21:58:27 GMT

No idea where I'm gonna go with this journal. Most of it will probably be photos from concerts I've attended, or trips, or just stuff I feel like taking photos of. Maybe some other stuff too, I've not really made up my mind about any of this to be honest.

Anyway. Personal updates will be friends only. If you care to see those and aren't a total creep drop me a line here and I'll add you. Maybe.
