The Real Ratings: Before Sunrise
http://bartelmysrealratings.blogspot.com/2011/09/before-sunrise.html
Sunday, 4 September 2011. On a train in Europe, Jesse (Ethan Hawke), an American who is about to catch the plane from Vienna back to America the next day, and Celine (Julie Delpy), a Parisian who is returning home after visiting her grandmother, meet and begin talking. Celine's also a little more kooky than Jesse - she inspires a game where they each pretend to phone a friend to tell them about this strange person they met on a train.

The Real Ratings: A Very Long Engagement
http://bartelmysrealratings.blogspot.com/2011/09/very-long-engagement.html
Sunday, 4 September 2011. A Very Long Engagement. A Very Long Engagment is the story of Mathilde, who's fiance, Manech, died in World War I. Two years after the fact, she is informed that he was executed for self mutilation, along with four other men (each of them having destroyed one of his hands in order to be invalidated out of the army), by being thrown into the no-mans land between a French and a German trench. The only thing I can find wrong with this film is that some people may find it too emotio...

The Real Ratings: America's Sweethearts
http://bartelmysrealratings.blogspot.com/2011/09/americas-sweethearts.html
Sunday, 4 September 2011. Eddie Thomson and Gwen Harrison are America's Sweethearts. The world's best loved couple, on-screen and off-screen, every film they make is an automatic sell out. Except, maybe, for this one. The film shows what happens at the press junket for Eddie and Gwen's latest film. Unfortunately, it was on the set of said film that Gwen met her new partner, Hector, and she and Eddie split up. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Can't Cook, Will Wreck the Kitchen Anyway.

The Real Ratings: May 2010
http://bartelmysrealratings.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 5 May 2010. A Nightmare on Elm Street. A Nightmare on Elm Street. Why yes, I did see Nightmare on Elm Street twice. I had my reasons. Sunday, 2 May 2010. The Bechdel-Wallace test is - you know what? I'm just going to quote from TV Tropes. The Bechdel Test or the Bechdel-Wallace Test is a sort of litmus test for female presence in movies and TV. In order to pass, the film or show must meet the following criteria:. It includes at least two women,. Who have at least one conversation alone. I was ...

The Real Ratings: Boxing Helena
http://bartelmysrealratings.blogspot.com/2011/09/boxing-helena.html
Sunday, 4 September 2011. Surgeon, Nick Cavanaugh has been taught from a young age, that with hard work and persistence, he can have anything he desires. However, what, or rather, who, he desires is Helena, a model who does not return his affections. Helena toys with men, and often plays with fire, teasing and emasculating men physically stronger than her, in the sure knowledge that she is untouchable. In this assumption, she is clearly wrong. The use of the symbolic Venus De Milo throughout the film is ...

The Real Ratings: American Pie: Band Camp
http://bartelmysrealratings.blogspot.com/2011/09/american-pie-band-camp.html
Sunday, 4 September 2011. American Pie: Band Camp. To be honest, it seems like the American Pie franchise is being milked for all it's worth. The first one was a classic, the second one was good in it's own way, the third one was [i]really[/i] pushing it.yet, surprisingly, the fourth one is pretty good. All in all, it's a pretty good, swear and sex filled teen movie, but it doesn't even come close to the original film, or even the first sequel. Nonetheless, it's sweet, even if the female lead does re...

The Real Ratings: Before Sunset
http://bartelmysrealratings.blogspot.com/2011/09/before-sunset.html
Sunday, 4 September 2011. After their one night together, nine years before, Celine (Julie Delpy) and Jesse (Ethan Hawke) haven't seen each other. Until, that is, Jesse writes a book about their experience. Hearing about it, Celine tracks him down to his final book-signing, coincidentally at her favourite bookstore in Paris where she now lives. With time to kill until Jesse needs to catch his plane, the two decide to walk through Paris, as they did in Vienna almost a decade before. In short, once more, t...

The Real Ratings: March 2010

Thursday, 4 March 2010. I Love You Phillip Morris. Glenn Ficarra and John Requa. That's £13.50. Exactamundo, in other words. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Can't Cook, Will Wreck the Kitchen Anyway.

The Real Ratings: July 2010
http://bartelmysrealratings.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, 24 July 2010. 10 Things I Hate About You. A reprint of an old review. I wrote it before Ledger. S death, so it's quite weird re-reading it. This film is hilarious. Loosely based on Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew", 10 Things I Hate About You. And an equally youthful Julia Stiles. To be quite honest, the film's worth seeing just for the guidance counsellor and her trashy novel. In summary, this film is a must for anyone who likes romantic comedy. Or Heath Ledger. Monday, 12 July 2010.
