The Passion of the Christ (2004)
Now that is a film!
This movie is exceptional! Yes, the brutality in the film can make one upset. Leave the children and the child-like at home. The subject matter is upsetting, the last days of Christ prior to, and including, the Resurrection. Bigots beware... nothing in the film to boost bigotry. Overly-sensitive types... nothing in the film to picket. History is what it is. The film is what it is... a brilliant work on a painful subject. Congratulations to Mr. Gibson on a work of genius. It is too bad that so much hype and so many obstacles to release came before this films opening. Kudos to him for making this film, his vision, a reality.
Starry Night (1999)
Repeated viewing may cause brain damage.
Let me assure you, this movie is not well-made, well-written, or well-acted. Van Gogh purists should stick to "Lust for Life" if they want to see a quality Vincent Van Gogh movie. "Starry Night" begins with Van Gogh drinking "potato potion"(vodka???) and being resurrected from the dead. Finding himself at a modern parade, he decides to get hit by a float. I kid you not. If you find that you crave a truly lousy, unintentionally funny movie... this is the one, a great movie to yuk it up with your friends about.
