Power: Who You Are and Who You Want to Be (2015)
always a good watch but
How is it that when Tash and the driver go to a shooting range, they wear headgear over their ears to block out the sound of the shots, but then Tash talks to driver with headgear on BOTH of their heads and they BOTH have a conversation? Is this a type of telepathy that the series didn't decide to reveal? VERY disappointing to treat viewers as idiots!
The Human Stain (2003)
Well give me a break
Like so many artsy fartsy I want you to watch this for it's slow paced crap movie, this film subscribes to the idea that any old bs that you feed up to a pseudo intellectual audience will be absorbed in the same way that any action crap flick that you feed to the opposite dimension will work. This film is DULL. DULL DULL DULL. Anthony Hopkins and Nicole Kidman can't save this yawn and ED Harris delivers a stereotype of a Mr Criminal ex-lover/bf/husband despite labouring the opposite. This is rubbish disguised thinly as art. Thank god for Twin Peaks!
Into the Wild (2007)
Have a thermos of coffee close by you as you watch this tiresome trash
What a load of crap! An irritable middle class American throws away his life by destroying all contacts with civilisation as his midget mind tells him, takes a gun into the wilderness (oh yes primitive man had guns apparently)and shows how dumb pig ignorance can masquerade as art if your cinematographer is good enough (and the cinematographer IS really good). This film is self indulgent garbage of a high order and makes one long for another viewing of the amazing "Mosquito Coast" of decades before. If this is the best movie that an ageing William Hurt can get, then maybe he needs to return to the safety of the bottle. Even the music score is tiresome and old, rendering the total boredom of the picture complete.
Once Upon a Time in Cabramatta: Episode #1.1 (2012)
Rubbish
You can only watch rubbish for so long and this pile of sensationalist, racist nonsense is like the Underbelly of stupidity! I met John Newman. I have known Vietnamese educated people who see that the worst elements of the Vitenamese society as well as the worst were admitted and that the sort of smarmy, upper class snobs who make rubbish like this, have NO understanding nor do the necessary research to make good documentary if this is an example. A classic example is the way that they portray Malcolm Fraser as agonising over whether to admit Vietnamese refugees to Australia when the reality as all educated people know is that we are party to a United Nations Refugee agreement which IMPELS us to admit refugees. There was No choice (thank god). We admitted refugees and the Prime Minister had NO right to refuse. Did the documentary...ry makers not know this? I have a Master's degree in researching this period in Cabramatta's history. The filmmakers quote again and again a dubious professor as an icon of immigration history (where was Stephen Castke?) who speaks as an authority without any explanation of such authority. The whole DVD smells more like propaganda than documentary to advance a sensationalist and overblown account and to inflame racial hatred of the Vietnamese Cabramatta experience while disgustingly and vilely pretending to be diffusing prejudice. This is a pathetic and poorly produced DVD which is clearly designed to produce a racist divide while mendaciously expressing the opposite.
