Most recently watched movie
Vicky Christina Barcelona 7/10
Woody Allen in Spain, fantastic acting from Penelope Cruz and a soundtrack of gorgeous-ness
didn't liked it so much, too many stereotypes of beautiful Spain and Latin lovers: 6,40/10 (but Cruz & Johansson of course are the highlights... )
"Anything Else" I liked more 7.39/10
Hmmm I suppose there were some stereotypes there, but still enjoyable, I'll have to give that other woody allen a look since I like his work (well alot of it anyway).
Continuing in the Spanish theme for now
Pan's labyrinth (2001)
I really liked this film (actually I like Guillermo Del Toro as a director), weird fairy tale almost horror and blurring of fantasy and reality set against the backdrop of the Spanish civil war. 8/10
continuing with kind of horror films....
just saw "the mist" last night. 7.5/10
plot: Although a monster movie, the central theme is what ordinary people will be driven to do under extraordinary circumstances.
or by guillermo del toro (proud to say he's Mexican ) "the orphanage" is also good.
ek ruka hua faisla - hindi (original is 12 angry men)
my rating 9/10
