A brief history of my January viewings
Monday, February 19, 2007
Match Point - a very different Woody Allen film. So very very tense, the perfect thriller?
3-Iron - A quiet and alluring love story, astounding work by Kim Ki-duk.
Oldboy - Another Korean film. I've been meaning to watch this for 6 months now. Having seen this I must now seek out the rest of Chan-wook Park's vengeance trilogy.
Lady in the Water - An interesting fairy tale but nothing to match Pan's Labyrinth. I also spent the whole movie trying to work out the twist.
Le Ballon Rouge - a short and sweet french film.
Ong Bak - A fun filled action packed romp (or just another OTT kung fu flick, though at least better than most - but they did make sure to show all the good bits twice... every big jump was shown from ten different angles).
Wait Until Dark - Another top thriller, although Hepburn's portrayal of a blind house wife isn't entirely convincing. This trailer is horrific.
Renaissance - The supermodel of movies - beauty without brains.
Miami Vice - Terrible.
Adrift - Terrible.
