Good to know. I am trying to decide what to see today. I'll wait for video. I'll go catch "Trouble in Paradise" instead.
I don't always love his films, but I keep coming back for more.
Disappointing for a Cronenberg film. He usually has a way of making the subject matter an extension of himself in his films, and Dangerous Method lacked that severely. Perhaps too much of a challenge for him to take on. Keira Knightly failed to capture Spielrein's spirit, and Fassbender could of used more direction as Jung. Viggo did a superb job as Freud, too bad he couldn't save the film.
Nice to see Julian Sands in something other than tv...even if he's mute.
I enjoyed the kids' Herschell Gordon Lewis type home movie more than the film itself.
Horrible movie, amazing cast. Looks like it could have been good. In the drug haze that is this film there can be found some amazing moments. Pity Hopper couldn't pull it together. Perhaps next time I'll get massively drunk and and pop pills to watch this. I'm seeing so many stars/positive reviews I must be missing something.
Watched Gimli Hospital: Reframed at Film Society Lincoln Center. Not to be missed if you are a Maddin fan.
Started off very strong but then got lost along the way. Seem like the director was struggling trying to finish the film.
A very straightforward film for Miike til the end. Another proof that he can tackle just about anything and still keep his style.
Thought it be more absurd, perverse humor...well...yeah that was in there, but what i didn't expect was Hitchock tension taking the lead.
Cheesy dialog, fun action sequences, I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.
Started off strong but ended with more focus on others rather than Burroughs himself. Could of done without some of the interviews. Too much repetition in what was being said. Felt they could of focused more on his work than his influence in music.
Recently rewatched and was completely blown away. Bogarde is amazing!
Interesting premise, but fell short.
Entertaining and cute? documentary. Could have benefit from more interviewees...anything to take away from John Landis screen time.
Loved the opening, wish the film could keep up with its own pace.
A good horror movie (in the old sense). I wish there was more Winona yelling and throwing stuff.
Almost gave it 3 stars because of Mathilda May and Patrick Stewart's smooch, but then came to my senses and realized its definitely a 2 at best.
I would stop being vegetarian for "Pissing Beef Balls"
I enjoyed the first half but the second half was awful. Not for the extreme violence but the story fell into shambles. Very disappointing. I'm giving it 3 stars just because Mylene.
Was it good? I'm not sure...I was too distracted by the girls in uniform holding guns.
If you have the dvd watch the extras. Hiroshi Harada is truly amazing!
Read the book! Pretty movie but incredibly overrated. I think we all fall in love with how pretty Valerie is.
So strange yet realistic? Women don't talk like that but they do think like that, and the mutant chickens..I heard stories about KFC...
