I'm seeing Casablanca tonight on the big screen for the first time. I have seen it countless times on DVD, but never in a theater.

Hunger Games~
I have mixed feelings about this movie. The plot was your typical afteradisasterthegovernmentgetsstupid kind-of-plot and it held my attention..until the end which was very anti-climatic and you can tell they want/will do a sequel. Very good teen movie but it could have used a lot more..better dialogue, character development, suspense, etc. But overall on a scale of 1-10 i'd give it a solid 5.

I saw The Shore this weekend. The Shore won the Oscar for life-action short film at last month's awards. What makes it absolutely beautiful to watch is the cinematography and fantastic acting by Ciarán Hinds:

The Hunger Games
Yes, I was one of the ones who helped this movie surpass all of the "Twilight" openings. And, I enjoyed the movie.
But, the shaky camera motion is something I abhor in a movie. It makes me motion sick and I leave the theater (every time) with a massive, nauseated headache. So, I decided to find out a bit about the reason it was shot this way... Director Gary Ross talked about The Hunger Games in a recent interview with Vulture. Vulture - "Let’s talk about the look of this movie. You employed a lot of shaky handheld, and there aren’t a lot of wide shots. How did you come up with that approach?" Gary Ross - "Well, I mean, I tried to do what the book did." Well alright then! THAT explains everything. So, to anyone who plans to go see it-if you are like me, easily sickened by shaky camera action (think "The Blair Witch Project" or "Paranormal Activity" you may want to wait this one until the DVD comes out. If you are watching it at home, you can press pause and come back to it. Personally, I did not want to miss any of the movie so I stuck it out.

Watched a two part series/ drama on Netflix called The Painted Lady. It is a Brit film with one of my fav actresses, Helen Mirrin. Well made, intriguing mystery and the songs performed by Jenny Darren are wonderful soulful jazz numbers. I may have to buy the soundtrack. It is download only.

We went to the midnight release of The Hunger Games last week.... it was ok, but I wasn't blown away. And the whole kids killing kids thing kinda bothered me.

Hugo - and am now fascinated by Maillardet's Automaton. I also loved the weaving of history with fiction. Lovely and touching story line.

I saw the "Hunger Games" film yesterday, I needed a couple hours of escapism.
It looked good, the art direction and cinematography were solid but overall I found the film adaptation soulless. So much is removed from the story, so that the screenplay flows from one action sequence to another, that none of the characters (or relationships between characters) are developed beyond surface level. And sadly it sets up "Catching Fire" and "Mockingjay" to be the same. I thought it was well visioned but hollow; and that is a shame because they had good material to work with.

Kill the Irishman.
Based on a true story of organized crime in Ohio. The filmmakers added in real footage about the Irishman from the 60s and 70s and the fight over territory betweem the Italians and the Irish. A great cast including Paul Sorvino, Val Kilmer and Christopher Walken. |

I agree, it was mediocre with no reason for me to become interested in the characters. I would have been pretty angry if I had paid to see this flick.

"Kill the Irishman".
"Based on a true story of organized crime in Ohio. The filmmakers added in real footage about the Irishman from the 60s and 70s and the fight over territory betweem the Italians and the Irish. A great cast including Paul Sorvino, Val Kilmer and Christopher Walken". I seen this movie when it first ran in the theater and then again on HBO a short time ago! I love any movie based on organized crime and when they add in real footage based on events that actually took place, even better! |

the hunger games! i went to the movie theater on wednesday for the first time in years to see it with a friend. i was pleasantly surprised, but i agree w/the critiques - it fails to capture the character development and depth of relationships in the books. i can't imagine watching the film without having read the books...it would have felt much flatter.

The last movie I saw with a friend of mine was The Vow starring Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams. Tatum and McAdams play a married couple who are in a car accident; she loses her short term memory and cannot remember a thing about their marriage. He tries everything he can think of to jog her memory and it doesn't work so they lose touch for awhile, but in the end they begin to rekindle the marriage that they had lost. Its a beautiful story about love, struggle and the promise to love the one your with no matter WHAT may happen in life
