3DD!3

Wonder Woman as a doll at the premiere of the new Scorsese? Great. Damon and Bono as check chasers for hungry kids? Great series.

The somber tone is fitting for the series. Vinny without work is like a mill without water and when there is work it goes from ten to five. Excellent cameos and the last one from Marty is like a balm for the soul.

A flimsy screenplay combined with idiotic heroes makes this pretty hard to watch. Without first reading the synopsis, it’s unclear for a long time what’s happening and why, and the separate scenes fit together really badly. From the formalistic point of view, however, Michálek handles the directing well, but here he wasted his skills on a film about nothing. Weirdly, for a comedy, humor is completely missing. A waste of money.

A well-made story from everyday life about an elderly woman, her two dumb sons and new love springing from ice-cold water. The unusual story shunts along smoothly. Sláma has no problem with handling both the comedic offerings and more serious topics. The duo of Nový/Vízek and Adéla lead the whole film towards an unexpected outcome, which is a middle finger raised against family values and all happy endings. Very good.

An extremely important film, because nobody else will make anything like it and therefore I give it slightly higher marks. It is already an artifact, which you realize during the last sentences that Thomas Jane says to the rookie cop who just survived a hellish night. The string of police raids (brilliantly, but in no way originally delivered) shows the dark side of our world, which isn’t gray, but remains black and white; just a lot of work is put into making speaking about it a punishable offense. Did you read 1984 at school?

An indie series that carries the promise of Cannes and the uncertainty of the next film. Great cameos by Anna Farris, Sid Pollack an Kanye West. The 4th season keeps the quality.

An average kids’ movie with a high standard of special effects. I can’t understand why Downey decided to make a film like this. He isn’t suited to such acting malarkey and the only thing that could explain it would be that his kids are huge Dolittle fans. However, there are a lot of WTF scenes that make it worth watching. One of the weirdest such scenes is the one where they pull bagpipes out of a dragon’s ass.

A topic with great potential and excellent actors in the main roles. Outstanding camerawork and production design. But the end product flounders. The dad who wants to kill the three bastards that raped and killed his daughter doesn’t hesitate to pay big money for peace of mind. Understandably. Surprisingly, it’s like several key scenes that events seem to be heading toward are missing; it’s like they’ve been cut. In this respect, I don’t understand the director’s aim. A couple of lapses in logic remain, which seems to indicate that scenes were cut.  Ondruš has the technical know-how, but has to grow in terms of storytelling. However, for a Czech movie, this is absolutely awesome, on a level with overseas films.

A wonderful documentary that came out just as I was stopping watching MotoGP. Rossi’s era was slowly coming to a close and younger predators were vying for his position. Neale sums up the most important aspects, not forgetting to show behind the scenes friction (but still very tastefully cut) that occurred with the arrival of that lunatic Marquez. The central emotional gel is Sic’s death and respect for his legacy. Great shots and every accident hurts. Very nostalgic. Narrated by Tyler Durden, who tells of the metamorphosis of fire into speed.

In real life, the idea involving vacations would mean constructing a holiday resort in the Hundred Acre Wood, where the rich could go to escape the bustle of the city and take photos of talking plush toys. This is a bizarre film that my heart won’t allow me to give a bad review to. Winnie the Pooh is simply a nice bear and you find yourself crossing your fingers for McGregor to decide to give up on the big corporation and begin reading children’s stories to his daughter. Despite the fact that the plush toys are a little eerily threadbare, the story doesn’t make sense in places and it is rather depressing for a kids’ story, there must be something for everyone in this movie. As I read somewhere here, it’s a film with a small brain but a big heart.
