I got the perfect movie to reply to this.


HedwigandtheAngryInchMoviePoster.jpg


Title:Hedwig and the Angry Inch
Year: 2001
Country of Origin: US
Director: John Cameron Mitchell

Story: A tale of an under appreciated transsexual rock n roller.

Review: Here it is, the strangest musical I've ever seen. No joke, watch the film and be amazed of how little large chunks of this film makes sense. The tale revolves Hedwig, an East German girly boy who suffered a botched sexual reassignment surgery in attempts to...yeah I'll spare you the details of the story. Anyways if your game to see one of the strangest musicals ever, you can do no better than this one.

Title: Equilibrium
Year: 2002
Country of Origin: US
Director: Kurt Wimmer

Story: Ray Bradbury would be rolling in his grave...if he were dead.

Review: A strange amalgamation of Fahrenheit 451, 1984 and The Matrix Unfortunately it's neither a good amalgamation or an entertaining one. The film goes through the motions without a shred of humor. I chalk this one up as a fatality of the post-Matrix cinematic landscape, where everyone wants to be like The Matrix...but just can't pull it off.

WALL-Eposter.jpg


Title: WALL-E
Year: 2008
Country of Origin: US
Director: Andrew Stanton & Lee Unkrich

Story:

WALL-E: "EVE?"
EVE: "WALL-E?"
WALL-E: "EVE!"
EVE: "WALL-E!"
WALL-E: "EVE"
EVE: "WALL-E"
Cockroach: ...

Review: Looks like all my years watching Pokemon has finally paid off, cus I can stand watching to the title character and his robotic companion talk to each other. This is a heartwarming story about the loneliest creature ever who finds a companion. Sure there is some "political" message in there about the environment, but it's really not a political film. Amazingly animated and well voice acted, this is a great entry from Pixar.

The Departed?

Departed234.jpg


Title: The Departed
Year: 2006
Country of Origin: US
Director: Martin Scorsese

Story: A serpentine tale of a cop who is undercover in the Irish mob and a mobster who is undercover in the police department.

Review: This movie is a remake of the 2002 Hong Kong cop drama Infernal Affairs, which I haven't seen...so I can't make comparisons. This one builds an complex web of intrigue with a lot of cheese on the side. What this film does well is to bring A-grade talent to a B-grade story and the combination works beautifully. Though I do have to say that this one should not have won the Oscar that year.

Uhf-1989.

UHFposter.jpg


Title: UHF
Year: 1989
Country of Origin: US
Director: Jay Levey

Story: Weird Al! The Movie!

Review: Likable, but muddled comedy about a fast food worker who receives a failing UHF TV station from his rich uncle. The jokes are hit or miss, a lot of the parodies are groan worthy, but overall pretty funny. Not the best of its kind...still though it's a good effort by Weird Al and company.

how about U-571?

U-571_movie.jpg


Title: U-571
Year: 2000
Country of Origin: US
Director: Jonathan Mostow

Story: A tale of a group of U.S sailors who board a Nazi U-boat in search for the elusive enigma coding device.

Review: I haven't seen this since it first came out and I can't remember enough to give a full review. Though I do remember that I didn't particularly like the film when when I saw it. So I'm going to withhold an actual review on this one, pending a 2nd viewing.

Title: Blood Simple
Year: 1985
Country of Origin: US
Director: Joel Coen

Story: "The world is full o' complainers. An' the fact is, nothin' comes with a guarantee. Now I don't care if you're the pope of Rome, President of the United States or Man of the Year; somethin' can all go wrong. Now go on ahead, y'know, complain, tell your problems to your neighbor, ask for help, 'n watch him fly. Now, in Russia, they got it mapped out so that everyone pulls for everyone else... that's the theory, anyway. But what I know about is Texas, an' down here... you're on your own."

Review: This is the Coen Brothers debut film and it's absolutely spectacular. This is neo-noir the way that it was ment to be. With scummy Private Investigators and a murder that goes terribly wrong in the most spectacular ways. It's wholehearted recommended by me.

Well now that youve reviewed most of the Pixar movies, ahem, cars, ahem, what about the other disney movies, you know, Lion king, little mermaid, alladin,and others, those are surel underappreciated now but were great when they came out. Just a suggestion but i know you got a full plate there sexy.
