All in Romantic
Subhash Ghai's "KAANCHI"
Every now and then I find it enjoyable to see things done in bright colors and with well-drawn characters or personalities with motivations (good or bad) that are unmistakable.
Akiva Goldsman's WINTER'S TALE
I’m a sucker for well done but romantic time travel films. This one compares favorably to the romantic classic Somewhere In Time.
What an extraordinary film this is. Visually it’s a feast; colors and clever framing delight the eye. The plot twists and turns. And Penélope Cruz positively glows in scene after scene.
Park Chan Wook's THIRST
Plot summary:
* Devout priest volunteers for medical experiment
* Becomes lustful vampire as a result
* Sex/violence/building-hopping/tragedy/ensue
Ricky Gervais & Matthew Robinson's THE INVENTION OF LYING
What a subversive little film this is. And sweet. And funny. And unexpected.
Brian DePalma's “MISSION TO MARS”
I rented MISSION TO MARS expecting a camp classic, a howler, a real dud.
David Fincher's THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON
The special effects are the most impressive I’ve seen since Peter Jackson’s King Kong.
Kevin Lima's ENCHANTED
If you need something pleasant and friendly, you need look no further than Enchanted.
