Nyeh. I’m not really in the mood to talk much about life right now. It’d be too emo & dramatic, so I’ll spare ya. But with things I’ve been doing… pretty much nothing. I need to get the new J. Simpson CD soon so I can listen to & review it. Lol.

Anyways, more movie reviews below. I’m thinking of making a page just for reviews. Hmm. I think I’ll get on that right now. :tongue:

^^ Done. Movie Reviews


All movies are available on DVD
Rating system: Rating - sucked — Rating awesome… see it or die. :biggrin:

  1. The Usual SuspectsRating (1995) - This is really a recommended movie. At first, the police are trying to get to the bottom of a crime, but ends up grilling this guy for all the answers. The thing is, I want to tell more about the plot, but I’m afraid I’ll ruin it for y’all. But the main point is that five men are brought into the station because they’re the ‘usual suspects’ when a crime is committed and from there, their story unfolds. It’s a trippy movie and totally throws you off in the end.
  2. Big Girls Don’t CryRating (2002) (Language: German) - It’s definitely a good movie to see. You get a chance to see the character development and how these two best friends grow apart then back together again. There’s definitely a strong contrast between the two lives, but the only thing that keeps them together is their long friendship. There are plot twists along the way to keep the movie interesting, so you’ll be on your seats.
  3. Original SinRating (2001) - starring Antonio Banderas & Angelina Jolie. Wow. That’s a lot of different twists, lies, and deception. Just when you think something is going to happen, it doesn’t & something else more shocking does. This man, Antonio, needs a wife, so he gets one from America, Jolie. From there, their story begins and I must say it’s quite an exciting, thrilling, and passionate story. Oh wait, parental guidance is suggested (nudity). Okay, now go watch!
  4. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless MindRating (2004) - starring Jim Carrey & Kate Winslet. Oh my god. So confusing! Okay, so Jim’s character & Kate’s character date. But Kate’s decides to get her “memory erased” of Jim’s. Jim’s finds out, so Jim’s tries to do it too, but realizes that Jim’s is still in love with Kate’s. But see… that’s just the simplified version. The whole thing is just a swarming mess that barely makes sense in the head, but still leaves you with a good feeling. ^_^”
  5. Me and You and Everyone We KnowRating (2005) - starring John Hawkes & Miranda July. I didn’t like this movie. Cute at some points, but never really made me smile or laugh. It made me disgusted and I raised my eyebrows a lot. So this woman who’s a bit quirky and talkative meets this now-separated father who’s a shoe salesmen. From there… you see tidbits of how their relationship starts, but you get a bunch of other stories as well. I dunno. I didn’t like how even though these people were connected to one another… their stories were just too odd for me to handle.
  6. TransamericaRating (2005) - starring Felicity Huffman & Kevin Zegers. Story about a transsexual who finds out that she has a son. She and her son go on a road trip from NY to CA as they meet old friends, odd friends, and family along the way. Secrets are hidden left and right, but somehow, they build a bond together. It’s interesting to see the relationship grow and mature as you watch the entire movie.

    You totally should start a movie reviews page. In fact, you might want to consider joining TS and running our movie reviews subsite haha. Anyway though, I like movies with complicated plots, so I like reading your reviews of good ones to watch. Thanks for sharing :smile:

    HEYYY how funnnyyy i got you for despair! Although they didn’t need to assign you to me for me to come on this site :smile:

    Anyhow, dude, emo & dramatic is totally normal, nothing wrong with ranting about it. Haha, for example - i tend to do it a lot. It helps me :tongue:

    Hmm my sister watched Transamerica. It looked quite interesting, to say the least! So, how do you rate all of these movies?? Do you just watch all of them?? Cuz that’s a LOT of movies :shock:

    I think I’m gonna watch a movie tonight. It’s kinda weird.. like, Manhattan something is the name. It’s like 2 kids, 11-yr-olds, fall in love. Lol. We’ll see how that turns out. hahaha. :upsidedown:

    Hay thanks for the comment! LOL the problem is that they DONT sleep at night! They sometimes stay up all night playing and talking about Naruto. It prevents me from sleeping..

    Lol sometimes I rant “emo and dramatic” blogs on my website, it’s nice to let it all out and even get sympathy for it xD

    Take care!

    I used to do the ‘emo & dramatic’ posts in my blog, but I try to avoid those as you do :smile:

    I totally agree with your review on the Original Sin movie.. :smile: I’ve watched it myself and it’s pretty interesting in my opinion. I was young back then so I can’t understand the movie well. lol. But my parents loved it. :cute:
