Miami Vice (2006)
simply dreadful
man, oh man... I just wanted to view this flick because it was shot partly in my native Uruguay, and didn't expect much out of it, but...
jeez... I still can't believe that a director of the stature of Michael Mann could end up concocting such a pitiful, half-a---d, dreadful movie...
from the continuous continuity goofs (colin's mustache grew at least thrice back and forth,so that you were led to believe the poor fellow had to trim it daily about 1/2"...), to the utterly incomprehensible script of it all, you should skip it at all costs and even for the life of you...
there..you have been warned... watch it at your own risk (of having the urge of throwing an ashtray into the screen)
Sodomites (1998)
subliminal and not so subliminal propaganda?
This piece struck me as a blatant propaganda for a condom and related sexual items, the second time I saw it. Indeed, I saw it twice because I could not make head or tail out of it. Since most of its scenes last one or two frames (after the sodomizing begins), I advanced it frame by frame, counting not less than 5 times the (supposedly) brand Nf.
I surmise this is no coincidence, and I'm happy to have discovered it, or else my image of gaspar noe would be very devalued by now.
And, I do not think it is a minotaur as other commenter suggested: the ridiculous mask he uses is more like a wolf's head, but the close up in his hands when he unwraps the condom, reveals neatly manicured office-type nails, which do not live up to the expectations. All in all, you could skip this short altogether.
