As my body returns to its original condition, blood and pus from my wounds will fall as dew from the night sky. After all, I exist nowhere in the universe. But in the universe there is nothing which is not me.

I really apologize, I don't understand the raging hard-on people had for this movie.

This had zero comedic timing.

Makes me cry whenever I see it. Longing for something so basic like growing up with your complete family.. every kid should have that. It feels so close but it is so far because of the situation handed. And then a beautiful world of magic and nature that is always your healing friend.

Also am I the only one who thought of Scorpio Rising?

Don't read anything about it or watch the trailer, just go see it without any expectations. To go with that I'll just say a few things: I liked how it felt like a fairytale dressed in 80's ~ 90's L.A. noir. The car scenes are pretty amazing and creative. My only little wish is that they made better use of Christina Hendricks. Overall quite the breath of fresh air for me!

I hate Woody Allen but this movie was sort of cute and funny. Some parts painful but laughable. I liked Adrien Brody's bit.

Jack Cardiff at his best. Some of the most incredibly passionate and illuminating colours & lighting ever, ever.

It was interesting to me how the movie felt very rhythmic in a biological and emotional sense. Whenever a character said/did something hurtful to themselves or others, the camera would show a reaction as I felt a pang of sadness. Sometimes it felt like a blindly suffering living-thing. No depthy characters but I think it's supposed to feel like a deluded electric dollhouse. Also, nice, newer way of using CG.

I liked how despite the overflowing, rotten hate feeding itself from everywhere, the characters and tension built from their actions and thoughts are pure and innocent. The ending was really perfect and Kassovitz's cameo is hands-down the best director-cameo I've seen. I thought it was amazing he could give such an intimate view to an issue that is often deluded by certain horrible scales...

KIKUCHIYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The scene where the Duke kisses Princess Sophia and then tells her to punish him with his horse whip is one of the sexiest scenes I've ever seen.

I thought this was a satisfying, well-made action movie. A fun revengeish movie is therapeutic sometimes! There were some really good laughs too. Sound effects guy needed to calm down a bit with some of the fight scenes, heh. And uh, Won Bin... hmm, yeah I don't need to get into that here. :]

Derek Jacobi is pretty much always great. I thought this was actually a pretty good biopicish movie. Also, Daniel Craig is very good at being a pauvre gay boy toy. I like how they captured the pendulum-rhythm, fleshy yet caged, trance-like quality of Bacon's paintings.

Some of the visuals were nice and neat details in the city but that's not enough for me in an animation. I didn't really find this one to be that unique; felt like stuff I'd seen before but mangled into another form. Also, the younger brother's voice was so annoying, I couldn't think. :\

He has such a terribly hard time writing female characters.

I didn't find anything to like in this thing.

I feel like Little Nemo should be added too... the short animation is soaked in Mccay's incredible sense of dimension, rendering, imagination and sweetness.

"Are you righteous? Kind? Does your confidence lie in this? Are you loved by all? Know that I was, too. Do you imagine your suffering will be any less because you loved goodness and truth?"

So overwhelmingly voluptuous and dangerously playful with power. I cannot explain to you the waves of shivers I get every time I watch the scene during a rest on the journey to the Russian palace where Alexei kisses the innocent Sophia and hands her his whip, demanding punishment (read: reward!). It is one of the most delicious moments in film for me.

Pretty colours, lighting and soundtrack. Kind of feels like an alternative world's Amelie (even though this was made before that..). Overall I didn't really have patience for the self-absorbed feeling of this movie.

The ideal man is a spirit.

I feel like there were parts of this movie that didn't quite do it for me in believability (I know that it is based on a true story though). It is very heartbreaking regardless. I think I remember crying at the scene in the very everyday cafe in Tokyo where Akira and his mother are wearing very typical clothes...they don't look any different than anyone else in Tokyo really... then Akira asks his mother so purely and innocently why he can't go to school.

I still remember how my brother watched this before I did and him boasting about how I wouldn't be able to guess the twist. I guessed it in the first few minutes.

There are some pretty and imaginative images like the dark faces in the Queen of the Night's aria and Tamino and Pamina's test through a hellish realm... but I have to say the singers kind of suck (except Papageno and maybe Sarastro) even if their faces match the parts nicely.

I feel like I went half insane by the middle of this one! Too many raccoon nut-sacks.

I like some of the aesthetics in this movie and I used to really like the movie four or something years ago but somehow I can't seem to care that much about it now. I guess it shows artifice very accurately.

I just want to see this because it looks fun and I LOOOOOVE the Morricone soundtrack...!

I hate to make silly comments like since Gschlacht very obviously has an amazing original, elegant and lucid style but he is like this film generation's Sven Nykvist and much much more. I look forward to see more and more of this cinematographer's work. The breadth of movement, colours, details in nature and humans he shows is so clear but always has graceful subtlety as well.

I really want to watch "Chi to Hone" but at the same time it's one of the films I most fear to see.
