Movie Poster 1951

I liked Keanu Reeves interpretation of Klaatu. This is an update, and updates invite comparisons. I liked it overall, however I did not like the part of the Kid. He was the Brat From Hell. Jaden Smith, Son of Will Smith Plays the kid. He plays the part so well you keep wishing Jennifer Connelly would give him a swat across the rear. Jennifer Connelly was excellent. This movie is cerebral just as the original. Not a lot of flash or whiz bangs, but enough to keep it interesting. I rented it in Blue Ray, which also makes it a bit more interesting. I recommend it.

Ernie Dingo & Cate Blanchett

Burned Bridge is a brave and confronting 13-part series about the mysterious death of an Aboriginal girl in (Brooklyn Waters) a small coastal town. Burned Bridge is a love story involving two people convinced of the innocence of the prime suspect. Cate Blanchett, & Ernie Dingo are the lovers, this was very controversial when this film was made. Ernie Dingo heads a fine cast in Burned Bridge. He plays Vincent Burunga, the Aboriginal Liaison Officer at Brooklyn Waters who lives on the razor’s edge between loyalty to his people and and his official Government job as Liaison Officer. Cate Blanchett plays Beth Ashton, while recovering from divorce she inherits her grandfather’s estate in Brooklyn Waters. She arrives as an outsider but discovers more about her grandfather’s life. She finds out that her grandfather has had several children by Aboriginal women. Beth is now a blood relative of several inhabitants of Brooklyn Waters. The growing relationship between Burunga and Ashton is put to the test, having to survive the hostility between the Aboriginal and white communities as well as the obstacles of their very different backgrounds, attitudes and cultures. Cate Blanchett gets a challenging and confronting insight into his background when she travels with him to his home in outback Western Australia where traditional law is still strong within the community. Ernie Dingo must deal with her urban white environment when they pursue the accused youths case in Sydney. The third piece of the mini-series concerns the people of the Binbilla Aboriginal community just outside of Brooklyn Waters and its battle to reconstruct their community in their own way and restore their self-esteem. This is a strong and very satisfying series, Cate Blanchett before she was Cate Blanchett. She later Starred in Elizabeth, and the rest is history, as they say. I highly recommend it. well worth renting.

ANNE HATHAWAY

Rachel Getting Married is a tense look at a dysfunctional family coming together around a wedding. This is a Anne Hathaway Showcase. It is certainly an award winning performance of a woman tormented by the past, and daily fighting the daemon alcohol and the daemon drug. Kym out of rehab for the weekend to go to her sisters’ wedding must face every one of her daemons. It is a heart-tugging watch, not a tearjerker but exhausting, also because it is a wedding it is a celebration, and it is beautiful to watch. I loved this movie and I highly recommend it.

Rachida Brakni

CHAOS. The best movie I have seen all year!!!, and last year as well. This is why I love movies, why I rent movies, because every now and then you come across a gem. This movie reminds me of “DIVA”, but it is ten times better the DIVA. It starts with a bang when an Algerian prostitute named Noemie begs for a ride from Paul and his wife Helene as they drive by the scene of her merciless beating at the hands of three pimps. Paul locks the doors and, after the pimps have gone, leaving Noemie unconscious, Paul gets out of the car only to wipe Noemie’s blood off the windshield. The story is about Noemie and the the other female characters’ struggles to find individuality and freedom from under the thumb of the men in their lives. But the film doesn’t stop there – it also makes observations (and hence, commentary) about French society, Muslim cultures, and a variety of other aspects of modern life. The movie starts off fast and it does not slow down a bit. I loved this movie, it is CHAOS. A GEM. THE BEST MOVIE I HAVE SEEN THIS YEAR.

CHAOS POSTER

SCARLETT JOHANNSON

Scarlett Johannson perfectly embodies the great melting pot nature of New York City – her father is a Danish architect and her mother an Ashkenazi Jew from the Bronx. They grew up with very little money, and her mother’s love for film served as a common point that they could rally around. Scarlett attended the prestigious Professional Childrens’ School and began acting in childhood. We first sat up and took notice with her role in the graphic novel adaptation Ghost World, but her real breakthrough came with 2003’s Lost In Translation, where she kept up with Bill Murray without breaking a sweat. Many more roles followed, as the Rubenesque beauty brought her creamy, milk-white skin and gorgeous body to the screen in films as diverse as Michael Bay’s The Island and Woody Allen’s Match Point. Throw in a music career and a ton of charity work and you have one class act who’s easy on the eyes.

Mavis played by Mere Boyton

Beth Heke Played by Rena Owen: quote: “Our people once were warriors. But unlike you, Jake, they were people with mana, pride; people with spirit. If my spirit can survive living with you for eighteen years, then I can survive anything.” (Thus spoke Beth). This is a powerful and deeply troubling story of a Maori family in New Zealand. Jake, the husband Played by Temuera Morrison is Alcoholic to the max. Alcoholism is tearing this family apart, from stem to stern but you will see no recognition of alcohol being a problem. You will witness its devastation, the wreckage and the pain, you will see Jake unable to get in touch with his humanity in order to save his family and save himself , he is so beaten down by the alcohol.. I liked this film, even though it is hard to watch. The brutality of Jake the husband and father rings true because he does not even realize the effects of his brutality on the family. The character of the family friend Mavis Played by (Mere Boyton) has a very beautiful voice, she sings and sounds like a beautiful bird, and she is really, really attractive. The DVD has some good extras, photo galleries, interviews with the cast and director etc. Just as “Whale Rider” was beautiful and uplifting, “Once Were Warriors” takes you to the dark side…….. I’m left with the memory of after the house party there was blood on the walls, literally, blood on the walls. This is a Strong movie, not for the Squeamish. A 5*****Star Movie.

Robert Redford is Condor

THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR: The Movie that asks the question “Do we have plans to invade the Middle East over oil?” Robert Redford , CIA codename “Condor” has uncovered such a plan. Robert Redford Quote: “Listen. I work for the CIA. I am not a spy. I just read books! We read everything that’s published in the world. And we… we feed the plots – dirty tricks, codes – into a computer, and the computer checks against actual CIA plans and operations. I look for leaks, I look for new ideas… We read adventures and novels and journals. I… I… Who’d invent a job like that.” This was Robert Redford trying to explain to Fay Dunaway his reasons for kidnapping her as she was leaving a shop on the upper west side. This is a prophetic movie, a movie 30 years before its time. An entire CIA subdivision is murdered, wiped out because of the plan to invade the Middle East is uncovered. Max Von Sydow plays the icy master assassin, Cliff Roberts is here playing the Wily CIA New York Center Deputy Director. This movie is important, it gives context to the political situation in the Middle East. This is a movie guaranteed to make you think. A solid script, plot. This is a fine cast and an excellent movie. This is a movie that makes you glad there is such a thing as movies. This is a 5*****Star Movie.
