Can you tell I have a kid? All I ever see is kids movies now.

Girl Walks Into a Bar (2011) - a sketchy attempt at interlocking storylines, but the cast made the film fun to watch. I'd have liked more of Rosario though.

ps. as stated on the poster, the movie was made to be shown online for free and can be screened on youtube.

I'm going to summarize this one in more than the usual one liner I give reviews:

A French art dealer meets a British writer in Tuscany to talk about his book that argues that reproductions of art pieces can have just as much value as originals. Over the course of one afternoon, the two fabricate a past relationship together with appropriate arguments and emotions. Is what they are feeling real? Is their past relationship real and the initial premise of them meeting as strangers the fabrication?

I liked the way it was filmed with long close ups of the actors' faces and interesting framing of other scenes. I'd definitely watch it again. It's extremely dialogue heavy naturally so if you get bored easily with talky films then this isn't for you.

my mom said she wanted to watch it. i think she's gonna be trying to steal my xtina cds. she was blown away by her singing in this. loved it

1/2 out of 5

Very funny, interesting characters, slightly predictable but gripping story. And holy shit, some of the best and most gorgeous animation I've ever seen.

2 out of 5 stars.

I liked the concept of the movie, the execution could have been alot better. Also, there's this camera affect that was repeated throughout the movie to show the passage of time. Watching it actually made me dizzy and nauseated. Did this happen to anybody else?

1/2

I went to the library yesterday and picked up "The Lovely Bones". I wasn't expecting to like it, but I really thought it was quite beautiful and well done.

It's pretty similar in look and storyline to "What Dreams May Come"

oh, how I love Juliette Binoche!!

Pan's Labyrinth 4.5 out of 5

Very good movie, I loved the ending. But I do have to say there was a good reason I was reluctant to watch this. I just don't really want to watch brutal assholes killing innocent people, even if they get their faces cut up and have to sew them back together themselves without any anaesthesia!

Guillermo Del Toro sure does love putting little kids through the wringer.

Normally, I'd wait and watch it again in its entirety, but from what we saw that one night, it looked kind of dumb. I'd settle for just a plot summary.

no, the one in the front has sex with the main guy while wearing ugly shoes and they punch each other to bloody pulps in the MIDDLE of the movie, at that point we stopped watching

the end you are suggesting is kind of wussy in comparison

I found this review

What's it about?- Naboer is about women, and how crazy they all seem to be. Poor John is an average guy that gets dumped by his girlfriend; but not only did she leave him, she tells everyone about his intimate problems, not respecting his feelings at all! Also, she took all of the A-ha records, which is just low in my book.

"Put down the A-ha CD's or you're going to have to take on me!"
Soon after the shrew leaves him, he meets two odd-yet-hot sluts that live next door, and quickly gets sucked into a world of fight club-sex and fear. I'm not sure, but I think the guy gets raped. I can't say too much more about the plot or else I risk giving too much away, but suffice it to say that this movie made me feel dirty in a few different ways.

She is dirty in her own special way.

The Good- At only 72 minutes, this movie was lean and tight, and kept me intrigued the whole time. Mix some Hitchcock with some David Lynch, and add a bit of Session 9 and you have the makings of a well executed psycho-sexual study in paranoia which is this film.

The tension in this one is palpable from start to finish, even when you think you've got the movie all figured out. The sex scene is a good example of this; both alluring and profoundly disturbing at the same time, you find that you can't look away even though you really should.


The Bad- Helping people is overrated, and especially helping hot chicks. Are they ever worth the trouble? I don't know; the short term can be rewarding, but in the end you're going to pay the price and be left holding the bag. By that I mean holding your own bag. That's a sexual innuendo.

The Downright Horrendous- I don't ever condone a man hitting a woman; unless it's to actually save your life, it's just wrong. That being said, some of the bitches in this movie deserved a good crack in the mouth.

The smile is a lie.

The Gory- There's not much gore in this one, but we do get some disturbing visuals, and a rather bloody sex scene.

The Naked- This movie is dirtier than Lindsay Lohan's hamper; nasty sex, filthy talk, and some good of T&A.

I have nothing to say about this.

Best Line- "Ssh. Ssh... Ssh." or "Different strokes for different folks."

What did we learn?- I think at this point it's safe to say that women can't be trusted. Also, women don't wear bra's in Norway.

Rating- B+ (8.5/10) This little movie just knocked my socks off. It's tight, terse, disturbing, well shot and has a nice and quick pace. Check it out if you can find the DVD; though this movie is a few years old, Norway is turning out some pretty decent horror flicks of late.

Final Thoughts- It's not worth it! Or maybe it is. Ok, it is.
