Wheels (2014)
Shot like a classic. Great Film!
Came across this on Prime and thought I would give it a go. What a really great film this was!
Reminds me of the older 80's movies that are classics now. The pacing felt a little slow at first and I couldn't understand why, then I got it. They shot it like an older film. There are long takes and lot's of long shots. There also is no cell phones in the film, which I thought was interesting. Like an homage to older films.
The story also was shot against traditional. There is no main bad guy, no main goal that I could see. Just a couple of guys trying to figure it out. And it was refreshing to see something different.
Great film!
Kako los son (2003)
Two stories unites as one...
Like a bad dream is a merge of two dramatically diverse stories that fate will unite them.
The conflict in former Yugoslavia summons solder Sheitan to the front. Seven long years will pass before Bezania sees her lover, once again, their lives reunited in those very same places that had once been. But time and war changes everything and nothing is the same... Shaitan, as cited by the poet, is one of the Devil's many names."
Main while, somewhere in a western European city, a young Macedonian student discovers the corrupted soul of Europa, learning the lessons that will eventually lead him to adulthood. Like a bad dream is a cross-way of lost souls and restless anguish.
Many people said that "Like a Bad Dream" is a hard film, but with great direction, photography and poetry in the image, as well as fantastically incorporated music of the band "Anastasija". Robert Englund and IskraVeterova are fantastic in their roles, with passion, pain and drama which bear the risk.
Black Ruby (2017)
Rome Film Awards Louis and his soundtrack
Cheers to the soundtrack for Black Ruby it makes the movie. From researching Ave Fenix Pictures they used Europeans for their last three films, cheers again. The La Raza movement, and I'm still not sure what that is or what it means, nonetheless is doing something very right - Music combined with the images, they're on my top list of independent film companies that do what they want.
The story follows two friends, Jules Mandel a fat and now comfortable womanizer who is inheriting a furniture corporation through his fiancée's father and Louis Katz played by the talented Zachary Laoutides, always transforming on screen even when he doesn't need to be. Both men fall for a Black Latina prostitute and their friendship goes south. The untalented Jules tries to use his father's last name to be a Jazz superstar, but uses the valid talent of Louis to write his songs and further his career, even though Louis is troubled by his past and on medications. Critically in genuineness Laoutides is doing this in the film with his co-stars. Louis Katz is the only character with depth.
In an noteworthy twist Jules uses Louis to fight in backyard street fights, comically the film is narrated by a black hoodlum Quazy who knows the men too well, all being hustlers. Like I said before Laoutides saves the day with his performance and is really the only character I care about in the film, watching an actors-actor is all gratifying with good music in the background.
Nobody's Perfect (2016)
Best movie of the year!!!
I just watched Nobody's Perfect and on a scale from 1 through 10 with 10 the greatest rating, I would give it an 8 because of some of the production values had flaws. I would love to see what this film would have looked like on a much bigger budget. Not a knock on the cast. It was well-acted, and had a great well developed story. The transition of the character Morgan changing from good to crazy showed range and acting chops. Sasha was so HOT looking and gave a nice performance. One of the most significant aspects of this movie was the messages and signs of domestic violence. You actual learn something while being entertained. We need more films like this. It's close to being a brilliant cinematic masterpiece.
Adios Vaya Con Dios (2014)
Are you ready!
"Are you ready!" The young gangster Bones, played by Emmanuel Isaac, who lives and dies Olmec gang banger philosophies, yells to his Santa Muerte face painted crew before he puts the hit on Eloy Rosales, played by Albertho Garcia. It's a retribution killing after Eloy stomped to death Tiger De'Leon, played by European actor Marius Iliescu, the merciless sexual predator.
All the actors in the film have their moments and have memorable one-liners, courtesy of lead actor and screenplay writer Zachary Laoutides who plays Rory King a half Mexican and white Olmec gang member trying to navigate his way out of a life of criminality. Laoutides invests all his larger then life characters inside an urban odyssey, they are individual social adventures getting us closer to Rory's goal of leaving town, but in actuality they push him further from his goal.
The subtle performances that seem to analyze and survive every situation they're in belong to Laoutides and Garcia, best friends for life and a bond that forces Rory to treat Eloy with special gloves resulting in them becoming deep into misfortune with the Olmec Jefe's, aka the bosses. From the opening of the movie the scene unseals intensity from Rory and Eloy and the ending closes the film with the same nerve-wracking sentiment from these two fine performances.
The World's Most Relaxing Film (2015)
This was pleasant and wonderful pictures that can refresh the mind with inner peace.
Waking up after a restless night, I wanted to begin my day well. First thing, lying on my bed I did, opened my laptop for getting close to the tranquility of nature.
I searched on YouTube for the most relaxing film to enjoy and I found "'The World's Most Relaxing Film". There remains a place of peace and tranquility within all of us. I find the video is an attempt to bring us there. The seven minute video starts with soft music to depict natural scenes from deep-wooded forests to waves beside the shore.
This was pleasant and wonderful pictures that can refresh the mind with inner peace.
Sunrise is a time when there is calm and quiet, the atmosphere is pure and fresh and there is no dust, no smoke, and no noise. A man who goes out for a long walk at sunrise beside the sea or river never falls ill. The tall grass and lake are a long way can remove from people's hectic day-to-day lives. This beautiful picture shows the sun going down over waters in Zealand, Denmark. After that gloomy night, sunrise brings new hopes and aspirations for me really.
Chez Upshaw (2013)
Great Comedy Movie!
It's refreshing to see a new comedy with fresh and unpredictable writing. I feel very happy to see this comedy movie. I am a great fan of writer-director Bruce Mason. His creation is very popular among all the category. This movie who played in any role he works very good of his/her own position. It is the mirror of original comedy film. It is the family comedy movie, every person in the family watch this movie together. In this movie illeana Douglas and kevin pollak are ahilarious couple who work is very appreciable. I think this movie is heart- warming and funny movie, but one thing I didn't support from a film about suicides! Overall all the subject and location, situation everything is very decorated. I hope every person see this movie with their own family and friends. I enjoy this movie very much.
Waterfall 1: No Words, No Sex, Just Relax (2014)
This is Outstanding & Natural
When I put this DVD in, I find myself taking some deep breaths and i can feel how my shoulders relax and my tension goes away. I work from home and my focus and creativity increases when I see and hear natural scenes from this DVD. I also don't feel as stressed, even when deadlines are coming. It really does take you away from the chaos that is life sometimes. Even just five minutes helped me to get my stress away. The waterfalls are beautiful. When I am busy I just put it the DVD on in the background and listen to the sounds of the Waterfall. The DVD is exactly what I wanted. The water sounds are very well recorded and the visuals are stunningly beautiful. You will enjoy this!
Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
This is one of the super movie
My idea of action is the classic fist fight between good guys and bad guys. But I always loved Start Trek and have seen the a lot of TV episodes of the original series and Next generation and much of the rest. They all had characters, personalities, drama and last minute solutions to problems that could destroy the universe. Into Darkness lacked all of that. Although I grant you it was Star Trek, it was written for teenagers that like things crashing and exploding and don't care about characters, personalities and dramas. Way too much of the movie was things crashing, exploding and all that stuff. There were the usual fights but they were also not that good. About 30 minutes of the movie was interesting. The rest of the movie was like any other Summer-Blockbuster-Explosion-Film with things crashing and explosions everywhere.
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)
I enjoy it and love this story.
Anchorman is a film that only comes around once every decade and it will set the standard for any comedies to follow. It is a film with very ridiculous comedy moments brought together in an intelligent way.
It's not something where the jokes are obvious, in fact some of the more funny jokes you can miss very easily. This film gives us a great blend of serious acting with very, very silly humor.
I'm not usually a fan of the silly comedy movies and I'm sure a lot of people will go away from it because it is just that. I would say give it a try, I really liked this movie. I enjoy it very much. Every body should to see this movie.
Hancock (2008)
Very Good, I Enjoy This Movie vary much.
This movie is very, very funny. How many other heroes do you know that get sued and arrested for all the damage they caused by fighting crime? Hancock does do a lot of damage, sometimes just for the fun. But the biggest difference is that Hancock has a background that is both unique and touching at the same time. Hancock is the superhero, but his friend Ray is heroic in his own way and that adds a style not usually found in movies of this type.
This is a very good movie, but very underrated by people. If you want a superhero movie that is not the normal type, you really should see this one. Trust me, you'll love it.
Billy Madison (1995)
Very Funny I Like this.
This is still one of my favorite Adam Sandler movies. See Adam Sandler before he became so well known. His comedy genius was already showing . Want to know why i like this movie so much ? Because of it's lack of script. This movie doesn't even try to create characters or a plot! All it is, is Adam Sandler acting so childish that you can't help but crack a smile or laugh. A lot of people think this movie is lame and a lot of other people think that the main jokes in the movie are the only funny ones, but I do not think so. Yea it has it moments where it could be better but every movie has that so that is no problem. If you want a movie to make you laugh see Billy Madison, I recommend this movie to everyone.
This Is the End (2013)
Not Bad I enjoy It.
I will say that you have to have a special and kinda dark kind of humor. Also if you do not religions humor you could be offender by this movie. BUT if you got that type of humor then you will love this movie! The actors play themselves which is something I really liked about this movie. It has an awesome cast, from side actors like Emma Watson or Rhianna to the main cast like Seth Rogen. You will definitely see some faces you like and/or know in some way. I really like this movie because it does not take it self to serious. The actors actually make fun of them self's. You can feel how everybody had fun in filming this movie. Me personally would say you should watch it immediately because you will have a good time !
