One of those thing: WINTER SLEEP
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2014/11/winter-sleep.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Monday, November 24, 2014. Haluk Bilginer, Melisa Sözen, Demet Akbag. Three-hour-chamber epic that does not makes you yawn at all. Only few directors manages to pull this magic, including Nuri Bilge Ceylan. Winter Sleep i. This is laos rich in other themes such as moral ambiguity, social class, ethics,religion and hypocrisy. In one scene Aydin seems irritated by the local imam about some trivial matter (it is of importance to the imam but not to Aydin), ...

One of those thing: THE AVENGERS
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2012/05/avengers.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Tuesday, May 08, 2012. Out of the ordinary I am reviewing a summer movie. Not that I rarely seen blockbuster movies but I think it is quite a strain to review it since I know, popcorn movies that can reduce your logical thinking 50% are usually not my cup of coffee. I did watch Transformers 3. Which I think as a waste of time and money, I ron Man. Are fun but nothing more than that and Thor. Is enjoyable. So far, minus The Avengers. The jokes are fresh and w...

One of those thing: BIRDMAN
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2015/02/birdman.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Monday, February 23, 2015. Michael Keaton, Zach Galifianakis, Edward Norton, Andrea Riseborough, Amy Ryan, Emma Stone and Naomi Watts. Alejandro G. Iñárritu. Actors, who are they? Just a bunch of self centered people getting overly paid for being douche bag? Technically this film is emotional, intimate and a bittersweet satire on how one person struggle to keep existing in this mad world that keeps changing. Riggan's bantering with his daughter shows tha...

One of those thing: BEFORE MIDNIGHT
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2013/08/before-midnight.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Tuesday, August 13, 2013. Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy. Seldom that the third film in a trilogy manages to equalize, or even surpass the second and the first. But that is not the case with the third film of Before Sunrise. Trilogy. The last time we met Celine and Jesse, they were not a couple and it was 2004 in Before Sunset. Jesse was still married to his wife and accidentally bumps into Celine in Paris. Loyal to the strength of the dialogue, Midnight. Ketika s...

One of those thing: END OF WATCH
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2012/11/end-of-watch.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Monday, November 19, 2012. Jake Gyllenhaal, Michael Peña and Anna Kendrick. If you remember the reality show Cops, then this movie is not much different. Breathing fresh air to the found footage genre (fuck you Paranormal Activity. Why not), David Ayer manages to bring a gut wrenching police story into the screen. This is Ayer's second credit as a writer-director, after Harsh Times. 2005) He also wrote Denzel Washington's Oscar-winning Training Day. The drug...

One of those thing: DALLAS BUYERS CLUB
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2014/02/dallas-buyers-club.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Jared Leto. I used to undermine Matthew McConaughey since he was once famous starring in romantic comedies such as The Wedding Planner. 2001), How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. 2003), Failure to Launch. 2006) and Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. 2009) I think there are no big challenges as an actor to act in rom coms, but when this Texan actor takes a U turn with The Lincoln Lawyer. Replaced by a suave...

One of those thing: INTERSTELLAR
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2014/11/interstellar.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Friday, November 07, 2014. Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Casey Affleck, Topher Grace, Michael Caine, Wes Bentley, John Lithgow, Ellen Burstyn, Matt Damon. It is colossal but also personal. It also redeem the "disappointing" The Dark Knight Rises. From Nolan and reminds me of Inception. S originality. Some might want to take reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey. But in my personal opinion it has elements from Contact. Full with physical ...

One of those thing: THE ACT OF KILLING
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-act-of-killing.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Monday, August 12, 2013. THE ACT OF KILLING. Anonymous, Christine Cynn, Joshua Oppenheimer. Why is it related to us now? What happened to the idea that a nation belongs to everyone without marginalization regardless of so many thing? As a documentary The Act of Killing. After seeing this, you just realized that what Congo had done is just a tiny pixel in a big picture from Indonesia's troubling (and bloody) past. One cannot stop wondering what sort of pi...

One of those thing: SOURCE CODE
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2011/05/source-code.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Wednesday, May 18, 2011. The 'what if' question is getting a science fiction (and repetition) in the second film of Duncan Jones. His first movie, Moon. Is amazing, so I have a bit of expectation for him. Bringing science fiction to the table with not so glittering special effect requires a solid story and in this field Jones did it well. Is it a time travel? A new universe from the 'after glow' of people who had just died or just an illusion? As for me, I l...

One of those thing: BOYHOOD
http://movieaddict101.blogspot.com/2014/11/boyhood.html
One of those thing. My very own movie reviews. Monday, November 17, 2014. Ellar Coltrane, Patricia Arquette, Ethan Hawke, Lorelei Linklater. We have seen people grow in Harry Potter series, but Boyhood. Is another kind of growing up. Shot in 12 years with the same cast, we got to see how time flies, child grows and the adults, grow older. At the center of this story is Mason, Jr. (Ellar Coltrane). Can someone have free will? And how to raise a child. As the film progresses, not only Mason "learns" ho...
