I have been playing around with the idea of the Shrek saga and how it is ending and seeing as Shrek The Third was such a plunge … I just don’t know. Will they redeem themselves and bring it to its former glory of 1 & 2? I hope so… Tomorrow we will find out so I’ll let you know what I think..
Here is the trailer if u haven’t seen it on TV already (It’s everywhere)
Starring: Peter Saasgard and Carey Muligan
Origin: England
Director:Lone Scherfig
Screenplay: Nick Hornby
Stars: **** 4
This film captivated me from the DVD sleeve until it ended with her *spoiler* acceptance into Oxford University. This is coming of-age done right and it was simply charming!
Carey Muligan as Jenny is a bomb in the film she plays her part so so so well and makes it have so much depth I had to constantly open my mouth in awe. The clothing, the makeup, her features. This girl is fantastic.
England heads back to their cinematic roots with this film and the grasp of the subject shows with wild force. The film is well paced and the story has no plot holes that I could pin-point.
Peter Saasgard is the most charming Englishmen wanabe alive! ( He is American) As you ride through the film you cant help but feel inside the film as Jenny and you damn right fall in love with that older cultured man! He is gorgeous and charming who can say no to that? Well… with his outcome the shift from one thing to the real him was simply preposterous it was so vivid and real!
The film is a little predictable in its story line but it is crafted so well that you dont really care because you dont really know when it will unfold. Apart from the starters Alfred Molina is very good as well in the film. It is downright great. Well deserved good reviews.
I exhort you all to visit “The Nun Diaries” the life of Sister Lena Bianco of St. Judes School is now posted wide on wordpress.com indulge in the happenings of a 21st century nun and her peers.
Other than that here is my most anticipated film this year: Inception by director Christopher Nolan
I have been out because frankly it became a mouthful to try and keep this blog updated when I am being exposed to so many films lately. I have seen so much and I have equally liked them so yeah. I decided to pick something that inspired me. Kathryn Bigelow.
Director of “The Hurt Locker” and only woman nominee at the Golden Globes. She won the critics choice <3
I just think its really inspiring to see a female director being recognized it enhances my hopes on getting into NYU getting my stuff done and having a good chance at work. The movie in itself is beautifully portrayed. Perhaps the tactics and army references are a bit out of focus but the drama and overall suspense is terribly compelling. Scene after scene I kept getting reeled in it was simply great. Worthy of the oscar I might add but hey we all know Ol' Mighty Avatar is a front runner.. Which was a great artistic film but…Really?
Kathryn maybe hasn't done much but her vision and background as a painter clearly makes her movies delightful. Oh if your'e wondering she is alumni of the Columbia University Film Program. Big Tish competition haha
