Loukoumades me meli (2005)
A man's quest for stopping a paedophile from doing further harm, using a trained pig
Very enjoyable movie - funny but true - about the very grave subject of a paedophile abusing young boys in a small Greek town. Even though the movie is about such a terrible thing, is full of very funny moments and entertains better than average! The main character finds himself training a pig to find beignets (loukoumades) wherever they may be - the paedophile's bait for his victims - so as to catch him out, and he works with a partner in crime - a very sexy girl that works in a funeral home (indeed!!!). If you enjoy Greek movies, this is definitely one to catch, but everybody else that loves not quite realistic funny movies should give it a try too.
Keeping the Faith (2000)
Sit back and relax
This is one of those movies that makes you sit back and relax: bring popcorn and lemonade! An interesting story about the problems that one normally would not think of these days: those concerning the celibacy of the Catholic priest and those concerning what the people expect of the Jewish rabbi. Makes you think! And for those who don't like to think too much: there's plenty of good fun too! A definite thumbs up.
Dead Funny (1994)
if you can stand all the mistakes...
I am sure there are many people out there that would like this movie, but I just could not stand watching it through to the end; in every second shot the microphone would be visible in the top of the screen and once you notice, you will keep on seeing it, taking your mind completely off the story.
I'm sure these people intended to make a great movie, but just didn't want to spend too much money on hiring a good film crew.
Bummer.
The Big Easy (1986)
The true feeling of New Orleans
This movie breathes the steamy atmosphere of New Orleans the way I experienced it myself and I just can't see it often enough!
Pretty in Pink (1986)
Lovely movie
For me, this movie just can't get boring - even after seeing it over ten times... It's just that perfect love story that you want but sadly tend to never have yourself.
