Up (2009)
Pixar's Up let me DOWN
Finally watched UP. But it let me DOWN.
Nothing what I expected. It was well below than other Pixar films. not even in the same league as Ice Age.
I was confused int he first few minutes of the film. Then there was tragedy :( I don't think anyone expect a sad tragedy film in a animated movie. :S The first part of the movie is very sad and I was wondering why am i watching this. Cos when I sat for the movie, I was expecting humor as Ice age .
The Only part I liked was when that giant Birdy came to the action :D It was so hilarious and I got a bit what I expected, humor and comedy.
The last part of the movie was Sci-fi plus Adventure... Which neither like Incredibles nor Spider Man.
I guess this film was only aimed at the very young crowed (kids) cos, I think an adult cant enjoy this film much as he/she would have enjoyed Ice Age or Incredibles.
But, I was surprised when I saw that this film was rated PG for some "peril and action". :o
So who the hell is the targeted audience? anyway, I should say this is not merely up to the Pixar standards :(
Machan (2008)
Machan, A film to watch
I just watched this Movie. And thought of it deserved a review.
Although the quality of the Theater sucks and my film buddy is nagging about something else, The one thing Got me in the seat was the story the movie.
Although it categorized as a Comedy, It shows the bitter truth of the Sri Lankan (and perhaps all third world countries) youth's tragedy. If they wanna go abroad, they should go as refugees (and another way, say their homeland is not good for living). But if they wanna stand on their own feet and help themselves and the country, they got no chance.
The Film is a definite must watch. The story, laughter and the way the tiny things captured by the director is awesome.
I think This film needed to be treated more seriously and advertised more in Sri Lanka. It deserves more crowd.
Cloverfield (2008)
Unique idea, but camera angles suck
The directors have thought of something new, that is the whole film is viewed in a amateur cameraman's point of view.
But all the time picture is shaking and we can't see what is going through clearly. Hence the film suck mainly cos of the camera style.
You'll stay guessing and trying to understand WTF is going on. It is very, very unclear camera style and i hate it.
It should have been less armature footage and more movie like recording.
after the film you'll come out of the cinema having the feeling you have watched a unclear real footage of a real life scenario. But you are not sure what was it
