“The Terminal.”

Not usually the kind of movie I go for, but this is one rare exception. It’s pretty funny at times; even the premise of a man trapped in an airport for months on end is quite amusing. It’s heartwarming at times, watching the character make new friends (and even enemies). It’s intense in one or two key scenes. But overall, it’s quite an eventful lighthearted flick.

The story’s original and filled with great characters. The film manages to fill up its runtime with enough progression, conflict, and depth to maintain proper pacing and make the film feel like a full experience overall. Underneath it all, I felt the film provides some interesting existential themes as the characters remain trapped in the airport and wonder what they’re waiting for all their lives. I’m starting to think that the airport is an allegory to life itself.

Coming from Stephen Spielberg, you know this film looks good. Yep, the photography’s great, the acting’s spot-on, the writing’s good, the production value is high, and the music’s alright.

4/5 (entertainment: 4/5, story: 4/5, film: 4.5/5, intellectual impact: 2.5/5)

Recommendation: Yep.

If they Blu-Ray it, I will buy it.

[Al_The_Strange]

I sold a bunch of really good movies at a garage sale today. So then I went to somebody else’s sale and picked up some really bad ones.

Next greatest blind-buy: “Howard the Duck.”

Why the f*** did George Lucas produce this?!

This is a movie that drips very heavily with 1980s cheese. Old-school SFX, outmodish hairstyles and outfits, 80s rock music, etc; but like most other cheesy 80s flicks, the movie doesn’t take itself seriously, and carries a comedic and adventurous spirit that make these kinds of films fun. The film has good pacing, plenty of action, and plenty of funny moments (intentional or unintentional, I did laugh pretty good in some parts).

But let’s face it, this is a movie about a talking duck from space who beats ups some punks before fighting some evil overlord of the universe. Yeah, it’s pretty dumb, and I could see why filmmakers, critics, and filmgoers would be embarrassed to watch this silly nonsense.

For what it’s worth though, the film has solid photography. Acting is deliciously zany and over-the-top; Tim Robbins and Jeffrey Jones are especially hilarious in their roles. Writing is pretty bad; dialogue ridiculous in both a good and bad sense. Production value shows various strengths and weaknesses; I think most practical special effects are quite strong, while the animated effects are dated. Otherwise, most sets, props, and costumes are serviceable. Music is average at best.

Seems about as good or as bad of a movie as the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” live-action films. I think I’ll keep it. It was worth the $1.00.

3/5 (entertainment: 4/5, story: 0.5/5, film: 3.5/5)

Recommendation: No. I don’t expect normal people to really care for this.

I just watched the theatrical trailer for The Terminal. I need to see this sometime. Not quite sure why I missed it 7 years ago, but that'll change eventually. Kinda surprised it has never gotten a Blu-ray release yet.

The Godfather: Part III

163 minutes

Year: 1990
Director: Francis Ford Coppola
Starring: Al Pacino, Diane Keaton, Andy Garcia, and Sofia Coppola

wow. Sofia Coppola is a BAD actress. at times, downright terrible.

i have a lot of respect for Francis Ford Coppola for what he's done in film, but giving his daughter the lead role as Michael's daughter is bush league. now, i say "giving" because unless everyone else who auditioned ABSOLUTELY SUCKED, there's no reasonable logic as to how else she landed the role. luckily she doesn't play a huge role, but she does tend to derail her scenes with an inexperience and an odd ability to pronounce her lines of dialogue with absolutely zero skill and feeling. ugh. even her last line of dialogue and expression in the film is bad. amazing.

luckily, and thankfully, she got out of acting and into directing which she is much better at.

now. on to the film!

i pretty much enjoyed all aspects of The Godfather: Part III, even though in a sense, it has nothing to do with the first two films. there is very little here to get excited about mafia / gangster wise, which makes sense with how the second film told us that times were a changin' and in 1979 (when the film takes place) the mafia wasn't what it used to be. so it is real, although very tame in the bloody, cruel violence one witnessed in the first film, and large doses of the second.

Pacino was great as an older, wiser man who is passed his prime and understands (to an extend) what is happening to his family, the business and how to make money.

Andy Garcia was terrific and grew on me as the film continued on. he did a great job holding his own with the likes of heavy hitters such as Pacino and Keaton. unlike a certain young female actress...

the last act (30 mins or so) are 4.5 - 5 star good. reminded me a lot of The Godfather and had a real good, "old school" feel from the first two films. also, maybe it's because i knew what to expect, but the third film, while being the shortest, also passed the fastest. i was able to watch it in one quick sitting, unlike the first two films. i also love how all the films, while very different, stay together very well and form a great trilogy. most trilogies have a film (or two) where it falls out of sync with the atmosphere of the other one(s), but all three Godfather films are all solidly made and hold together incredibly well

i was also absolutely stunned when

[Show spoiler]Mary gets shot

my jaw literally dropped. i did not see that at all. very well done. and the last few closing shots of

[Show spoiler]Michael and Kay dancing at different points in their lives over the course of the three films

was very touching / moving and wrapped up this trilogy incredibly well and spoke volumes about these characters and what they've been through.

i imagine the next time i watch The Godfather and The Godfather: Part II that i will like them even more than i did their first times. this trilogy seems like a real grower for me. and as for Part III? it gets...

3.5/5

3.5/5

Her acting is very off-putting and takes you out of the film. I agree it's a solid film despite its flaws. Al Pacino does such a stellar job (as always).

[Show spoiler]The scene when his daughter dies is particularly resonant.

yeah, that scene felt very Shakespeare-esque to me and was a great way to close out the films

[Show spoiler]even though there is another short scene after that

.

i'm interested to hear Coppola's commentary to see what he says about his daughter being in the role.

It's a shame it isn't out on blu-ray yet. Being that it is a Spielberg film, I'm sure it'll be along at some point though.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

Not a real review, just some ramblings.

I used to rank each of the films at a 4.5/5, but this time around the movie was a lot less enjoyable for me for some reason.

The romance with Will and Elizabeth becomes a central story in this and the next film...which is something I was never a big fan of. I'm very glad they won't be back for On Stranger Tides.

Nighy's Davy Jones is great, but like I said in my review of Curse of the Black Pearl, Barbosa is by far the best counter for Jack Sparrow.

The returning actors do roughly the same quality of work here as in the first film. Except for Orlando Bloom who is worse in both sequels.

I do still enjoy the film, but not as much as I once did.

Rating - 4/5

This is a great horror film from the late 90's. It's well worth it to import or if you find it grab it.

Waltz with Bashir

83 minutes

Year: 2008
Director: Ari Folman
Starring: Ari Folman, Ron Ben-Yishai and Ronny Dayag

Waltz with Bashir is an absolute must see film. pay no mind that it's an animated film. this is a serious, adult, frightening true life look at the lives of a few soldiers during the Lebanese war in 1982.

unique, moving, haunting and incredibly thoughtful and articulate, Waltz with Bashir is a fantastic film and is a great addition to my collection. very glad i finally picked it up (when it was $14.49, no idea if it still is) and i thank Squid and Steve46 for the recommendation on it

the film is told through a series of interviews with different soldiers taking place at different moments at the start of the war told with voice overs and of course, via flashbacks to help the narrator recount memories of what happened during the war because he's having terrible recurring nightmares.

i love the color palette, the incredibly atmosphere and the haunting, mesmerizing score. i could listen to the score all day every day. it's so damn good. i'm really, really tempted to buy it right now. it's not anything super loud or in your face, but it really sets the mood and ambiance of the moments of death, dread, confusion, loneliness and sorrow.

truly an absolutely beautiful film, but very dark in nature and story. highly recommended, but certainly not made for everyone. virtually no cheery upside, no happy ending, few (if any) moments of humor. yes, it's animated, but far from a film you can watch with your family.

comes with a 5.1 Hebrew soundtrack and also a 5.1 English soundtrack. i sampled the English soundtrack after watching it / listening in Hebrew and i was surprised at how good the English track was. a lot better than the generic voice over work you get on most foreign animated films. however, i like to watch a film as it is presented originally, so i will likely go with the Hebrew track for all future viewings as well.

PQ: 5/5 - terrific visuals. the animation reminded me a bit of Paper Mario and A Scanner Darkly. very different, very unique and very awesome.
AQ: 4/5 - dialogue heavy, and some moments are quiet, but sound is full and i never had to quick turn up or turn down the volume.

4.5/5

Goemon

Japan 2009
Directed by Kazuaki Kiriya
With Yosuke Eguchi, Takao Osawa, Ryōko Hirosue
Format: Blu-ray

So what is a Goemon? Ishikawa Goemon was a a semi-legendary Japanese bandit hero who stole gold and valuables and gave them to the poor, a sort of Robin Hood of the 16th century. The feel of the movie is a bit like 300, lot's of green screens and lot's of things that do not fit in the historical moment the movie is set in. There is plenty of action but some story as well. Expect to fine the moments in between the action scene to be a bit slow and more character driven then the same type of movie done American style. The warning is pretty easy on this one, if you did not like 300, if you don't enjoy over the top martial arts movie, then don't bother with this one, you will not enjoy it one bit.

Here's my latest blog entry:

The Hustler (drama, romance, sport)
Directed by Robert Rossen
Starring Paul Newman, Jackie Gleason, Piper Laurie and George C. Scott

20th Century Fox | 1961 | 134 min | Rated R | Released May 17, 2011

Video:
Video codec: MPEG-4 AVC
Video resolution: 1080p
Aspect ratio: 2.34:1

Disc:
Single 50GB Blu-ray Disc (digibook)

The Hustler was nominated for nine Oscars, winning for cinematography and art direction for a black and white film. The four main actors deservedly received nominations, although George C. Scott refused his. It was the second nomination for Newman, the first of three for Piper Laurie and Jackie Gleason’s only nomination. The film deserved the recognition, but West Side Story ended up with 10 Oscars that year. Newman received an honorary Oscar in 1986 and won a best supporting actor Oscar a year later when he reprised the role of Eddie Felson in The Color of Money.

The film is quite complex. Although a sports movie on the surface, there’s a strong romantic element. The story is essentially about strength of character. What would you do to get what you want in life? What if it means hurting people close to you? Is the goal worth the sacrifices? And, most important of all, how do we define success?

Newman was an emerging force in 1961, but his popularity hadn’t reached its peak. His portrayal of Eddie Felson was convincing. He only took the role because another movie he had committed to fell through.

Felson begins the story as a pool player who is building his reputation. He wants to take on the best and prove that he’s the better player. There are definite similarities between Felson’s place in the pool world and Newman’s status in the acting world at the time. Both were looking to make a name for themselves.

We learn in the opening scenes that Felson is a hustler. While playing a game with Charlie, his manager, he deliberately misses shots he could make. He also pretends to be drunk. The people watching are fooled and he wins $105 by betting that he can make a difficult shot and pulling it off. Then he leaves with Charlie and they look for victims in another town. This is Felson’s life. He makes a living conning people who don’t know that he has real ability.

Felson isn’t satisfied and dreams of making $10,000 in one night. In order to reach his lofty goal, he plans to play the best pool player in the country, Minnesota Fats (Gleason). Fats hasn’t lost a game for 15 years and has heard of Felson. He agrees to the game.

The stakes begin at $200 and quickly build to $1,000 per game. Felson is cocky and talks a good game, but also backs it up with good play. He’s soon ahead by over $11,000 and Charlie wants him to quit, but Felson says he’ll play until Fats says the game is over. He doesn’t just want to win, he’s looking to humiliate Fats and break his spirit. After 12 hours, Felson is ahead $18,000, but still insists on continuing the game.

You can see where the story is heading. Fats freshens up, washes his hands and puts powder on them. Felson teases him on how beautiful he looks. Fats starts winning and Felson keeps drinking. He eventually loses everything apart from $200. Who was hustling whom?

The pace of the film changes after the initial meeting with Fats. Felson doesn’t have the necessary stake money for another game. He meets Sarah Packard (Laurie) and eventually moves in with her. She has a limp from having polio as a child and enjoys drinking even more than Felson. The two are a good match and each has flaws.

Charlie visits and we learn that he has $1,500 which was his cut of Felson’s previous pool winnings. Felson is angry and decides to cut Charlie out of his life. Sarah wonders if she’s next. This part of the film moves a little slowly and some viewers may lose interest, but I felt it worked and was essential to give the film depth and additional meaning.

The pace picks up when Felson meets Bert Gordon (Scott) who is Fats’ manager and witnessed the first game between the two. Bert says that Fats was on the hook for the first time in 10 years, but Felson let him off. He calls Felson a born loser, but a loser with talent. He wants to be his manager and demands 75 percent of any winnings. He also issues a warning that Felson could get hurt if he wanders into the wrong pool hall and they realize that he’s hustling.

After learning a few life lessons, Felson takes Bert up on his offer. He takes Sarah for a meal and she comments that it’s the first time she’s seen him wear a tie. It’s a sign that he is willing to change. The two go on the road with Bert and Felson plays billiards for big stakes. Billiards isn’t his game of choice; he prefers pool. Felson loses initially, but something in his demeanor convinces Bert to continue staking him. He eventually wins enough for another showdown with Fats.

The final 10 minutes of the film show the second game between the two. Felson has changed since the first meeting and life has toughened him up. He’s still brash, but won’t take a drink while he’s playing. I won’t reveal who wins, but the film reflects on how we define winning and success in life.

The film has an authentic feel. The pool rooms are dark, seedy and potentially dangerous places. They match the gritty feel of the film. The pool scenes were shot in real pool halls rather than on a set. The only thing that wasn’t convincing is the way the actors held a cue in a few shots. A professional player wouldn’t have his head so far away from the cue and certainly wouldn’t wear a jacket in case it touched another ball and caused a foul shot. But the actors did a good job and both performed most of their shots. The remainder were performed by former billiards world champion Willie Mosconi.

Video Quality 4.5/5
The Hustler looks great in this 50th anniversary Blu-ray edition. There’s light grain throughout, but it’s never overwhelming. Much of the footage was shot in dark pool halls, but still looks good. The image is clean and free of dirt and print damage. There’s plenty of detail and the black and white image matches the mood of the film.

Audio Quality 4/5
The lossless English: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix isn’t perfect, but offers a considerable upgrade over previous releases. The balls enter the pockets with a resounding thump and the score sounds good. Where it loses a point is in the dialogue as it doesn’t sound completely natural. The original mix is also included as well as 5.1 mixes in four other languages.

Special Features 5/5

This package includes a number of features looking back on the film, as well as a couple of segments devoted to Newman's career. They are well worth a look.

26-page digibook

The digibook package looks beautiful and the pages contain high quality photographs. The only slight reservation I have is that the disc isn’t held in place by a spindle, it just slides into a slot.

The Hustler is a character-driven drama with a strong romantic element. It should appeal to a wide variety of people and is one of Newman’s best roles. He’s surrounded by a quality supporting cast. If you are a fan of Newman or character pieces in general, this 50th anniversary presentation is an essential purchase. If you like the film, check out The Color of Money (1986) to find out what the future holds for Felson.

Overall score 4.5/5

So did my family members who watched it with me.

I would rate these movies like this.

Godfather 3 - 4.5/5
