Mini-Review: Love versus vampires round one, total blowout, no submission. Spoiler alert! Wait for it, nah just kidding, there is nothing to reveal that you don't know or can't guess. Be warned of psychological trap of 'this can be me!' for girls and 'how did i end up watching this?' for guys. Story, dialogs, complexity, ideas, you name it - no brainer. I was really surprised once, that's when i heard Muse playing during baseball scene - that i did like. But sadly the scene was short while the movie was not.

Mini-Review: More a poem than a movie. Slow and reiterated at first it blossoms and becomes full and absolute, one thing leading to the other. Its passion is hidden in neverending repeated dialogues and monologues and the way it was shot is captivating. So many strong ideas and scenes and yet somehow you're not overwhelmed by them for the most important parts shine through. Glad i've seen and even though it is too subtle for my taste to be perfect i can't neglect it, this movie is outstanding.

Mini-Review: Comparing this picture to the first, one notices that it has improved in some ways and worsened in other. It is still a simple story retelling, but making children talk less and show emotions more is a plus, except for Radcliffe. He ain't the sharpest tool. There's a mix of magic and absurd (e.g. finding a sword in a hat - magic, killing a basilisk with it on slippery stones right through its head - absurd.) I'm not sure if director feels the difference. All in all it is pretty much the same.

Mini-Review: You cussing with me? This animation is different in looks, nonetheless free and and beautiful, intelligent - how 'bout theme from 'A Few Dollars More' - witty dialogs, superb voice acting - every character counts, fitting music, you name it. But there is more: fast paced action but not lost in it, Clooney as Mr. Fox, that's just so his role, and Streep as Mrs. Fox - even better. I just wished it had a slightly different ending and more of 'Who am I, Kylie' (LotR, huh) scenes. Cussing good!

Mini-Review: To all the Star Trek fans I bring a message: ha ha ha ha! It is just like Star Wars just dressed off interesting and funny things Star Wars had and put in a shiny new clothes. It is so full of stupidity one cannot imagine it is possible to put that much in one movie. You have to give credit for that! Now imagine the franchise that is more than 40 years old - you would expect something from that, and now all good you get is references and Quinto. And there was time travelling. Didn't help though.
