Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
muons This is a film in which two seemingly unrelated stories run parallel. In one, we see an eleventh hour hearing where a psychiatrist tries to convince a judge to rescind a death penalty prior to the execution of a murderer. In the other, there are 11 people stranded in a highway motel in a stormy night and each one gets killed one after another in a mysterious and gory way. Considering the second story belongs to a very formulaic thriller which has been staged time and again, it would be naive to think that it makes up the core of the plot as the movie meanders along. There are enough number of twists and turns that will make your head spin. However, at the end you come to realize those twists are the essential elements of the plot and are not overly used as some viewers complain. There's also a very fine line between the annoying "everything was a dream" trick and psychoanalysis inside the murderer's mind. This causes polarized intelligent reviews that sway between love and hate. If you can see past "the dream" ploy you'll appreciate Identity as a well scripted, well directed and well acted movie which deserves the generally high marks it earns from the reviewers' ratings.
pollardm-45339 Not too often I see something this intriguing and intense that I think about it for days and days after! I missed this one first time around . Not sure why? All I can say is its amongst the very best I've seen in the psychological thriller/ mystery type film. Lots of twists and turns along the way; and be sure to follow the plot closely; as the thing wraps up in a very interesting way! First rate stuff!
Majikat Not a particularly well acted film, despite the big named cast, oh but there is something quite great about this film when watching for the first time. Certainly unique at its time of release.
undeaddt This movie jumped right away in my Top 50 movies list. I am a huge fan of mistery movies and psychological thrillers like this one that keep you awake throughout every second of the movie, without blinking. You are always trying to think one step ahead, guessing, trying to make a logical explanation about who might the killer really be, who is who, why is this here and why is this happening here. All of that work your brain did, just so you come to the end and see that it was all for nothing because there is a gigantic plot twist that changes the whole perspective of the movie. This ladies and gents, this is a piece of art. Oh and yes, I really love John Cusack's acting. He is a true talent.
