Dorothy Mills (2008)
Brilliant!
Just when you think you know what this movie is about it surprises you. It's a mystery wrapped in an enigma. Great script, spot on direction. Wonderful acting by all. Carice van Houten plays it just perfectly as the doctor. Jenn Murray, is simply brilliant with a performance which must be seen.
It's hard to tell you what the story really is about without giving it away, but need to say it's a wonderful journey. From the setting on Hope this little film gets the distribution it deserves. It's just wonderful and I strongly recommend this movie.
Hope it gets some distribution in the US, as I think there is an audience for it. Nice to see what can be made for under a million dollars, a good script and a talented director.
Evan Almighty (2007)
Almost Awful
Funny premise. Bill Cosby did a very funny routine about this many years ago. Unfortunately, the premise is the only thing that's funny in this so predictable, so unfunny, boring movie. No comedy, no drama, no nothing.
Who ever thought of making him a congressman, should be fired. There's nothing funny about it...at least these days.
Let's talk about special effects. A lama holding a hammer. A flood that looks like a cartoon.
Don't waste your money on this. It's not really worth a buck to rent, either.
This franchise is dead and gone.
Next (2007)
Barely Average
Comparisons to Deja Vu are sure to be made. It would have been nice if the director actually saw Deja Vu...at least to see and perhaps learn how a great director, directs. It also had Denzel and a good script where you actually cared about the characters. Tony Scott knows how to put a film together.
NEXT looks just like a money job for everyone involved and another rape of a Phillip K. Dick book. It's barely entertaining if you turn your brain off and don't expect much from an awful script directed like an episode of TV. Jessica Biel was stiff and unconvincing in The Illusionist and she was just as bad in this Movie. She's not that great looking, can't act, so I wonder why producers and directors keep using her. I kept hoping there would be at least one unexpected turn, SOME twist or surprise, but nope it was not to be.
