Tim Watcher (2003)
is this a movie trailer?
I've seen this film several times in a variety of short-film festivals and it always causes me the impression that i have seen a movie trailer!
For a school-film is very well produced and directed, but the story... well it needed something else to be a bigger and interesting film. The character named Tim Watcher needed some in-dept approach. This is something that lacks in some Portuguese short films - the script is always superficial.
But still... i liked this movie...
Parabens! (congratulations!)
Duarte & C.a (1985)
funny stereotypes... The good guys are detectives always triyng to solve strange cases with the help of a automated european Citrõen 2Cv car !!!
Well, the first thing that i remember from this tv series are the characters... funny stereotypes !!! The good guys ( two of them and the lovely secretary) and the bad guys ( ANÍBAL and is crazy cook). The good guys are detectives always triyng to solve strange cases. They have the help of a automated european Citrôen 2Cv car. Anibal ( the bad guy) is always trying to destroy Duarte e Cª. No need to say that all is attempts are frustrated. Funny plots... great fun
Doctor Sleep (2002)
a film that clicks... a film that works!! (applause)
I saw this movie at the Oporto Fantastic Film Festival 2003(Fantasporto )and i really liked it. It is a good movie on it´s genre... a fantastic thriller. In this movie we have an hypnotherapist, a serial killer on the loose, a cop women anxious to catch him, and a little girl with the key to solve the mystery. You can say that : "i have already seen that !!", so do i... but, there is something different about this movie... It clicks!! It works!! The first initial scenes are outstanding and the development of the plot it´s interesting. Some of the shot´s are very poetic and the whole movie is very well directed. Congratulations for Nick Willing. (sorry for any grammar mistakes)
Cypher (2002)
a very stylistic treatment, a very well conceived narrative
In this film we have a very stylistic treatment on every shot taken, something that Vincenzo improved since is Cube. He explores the colors, the shadows, and makes a very good use on CGI.In an overall view i´d say that it´s a very well conceived narrative (of course it as it´s "clichés" but who doesn´t ?) The movie is well directed and the leading actor is just great. A good sci-fi/thriller movie. I´ve seen it in the Oporto Fantastic Film Festival (2003)and there were great expectations for this movie in particular... we were not disapointed
