You've Got Mail (1998)
Vehicle to socialism
I don't recall this movie well and that is all for the better. That woman was just a bitter commie. Tom plays the capitalist we learn to subconsciously hate. It's a blue pill and you wake up the next day feeling dirty. Oh my god. Hollywood has been going down hill for some time now. No one feels anything toward new Hollywood releases anymore. They go on strike and pick at each other the way free spirited commies do in community living. The Internet is portrayed as some sort of entertainment, and when it fails to bring quick joy the commie takes it out on others. She has a way of channeling the demons of the future of the Democrat party. Oh my god. Let us move away from this hard core commie flick and sober up. The good thing about the US is the US Constitution and the bad things are Hollywood and MSM and big government. Tom's character is picked straight out of a Batman episode. One dimensional and seemingly unable to adapt. We all know the know-it-all commies can't adapt to anything but cries and threaten with violence. The commie is shaping her plan of killing him of course, though this is understood and never hinted at. The ending they didn't go for was her taking him outside into the ally way and just gunning him down in cold blood. What a cook. I need to rid myself of the evil rising up through the layers of suppressed memories. The whole movie was inspired by the crazy shooter who shot Ronald Reagan. Oh my godness. I need to take a Nyquil and take aim for the bed at the end of the tunnel closing in on me. There are book nerds all around. All commies. They feel threatened when the public loses interest in the brainwashing they provide, so Hollywood stepped in and lent a hand with this movie.
Domino Masters (2022)
Show without self confidence
There is nothing wrong with a domino show, but the producer has made it convoluted and confusing and tiring to watch. The cuts a fast and frequent, no character development is taking place, and the viewer isn't allowed to follow the talk between team members. Instead there is non stop silliness from the fat host. When the race is on there isn't an overview shoot to let the viewer engage in the setup. While closeups of of technicalities should be shown, the fall back should be the same overview shoot.
The show lacks self confidence and tries to make itself be something that it isn't. The producer must be fired.
Hoarders (2009)
mental junk
The show is fairly well done considering they are dealing with reluctant and mentally ill people who can't declutter their own thought process. Lots of coaxing and helpful communication is edited out I think. The viewers get to see the absurdity of the hoards and the bizarre outbursts of the hoarders. It's clearly entertainment because so few normal people get to see these situations of neglect and escape from reality. Had the show been edited to show the ambivalence of the hoarders and the slow process of insight, the show would not be as popular. I think the show is more appreciated by people with hoarding tendencies who are struggling with accepting the futility about this behavior. I think there is less created or sought conflict between the hoarders and the crew than many viewers think. The hoarders are basically hopeless to work with and frustration boils over. Hoards are realizations, reflections of the cluttered minds of hoarders. They all seem nutty and just running in circles.
Poirot (1989)
fine series
The crimes are often convoluted in execution, impossible to solve for the viewer, but the acting is for the most part good and the apparels and settings feel old and authentic. The series goes down in quality a lot at the end when Hollywood-style production is introduced. Everything becomes close ups and sweeping cameras and unrealistic and overdone facial expressions and tones of voice. The liberals had to butcher this fine series too.
Kung Fu Panda (2008)
For the open minded
If you find yourself angered by the fact that a fat panda beats out several masters in kung fu, it is because you are hard on your self and not open minded. I had this reaction the first time I saw it. Ten years later I saw it again, and it touched my heart. Not because I've become senile, but because I've shed crud from my soul.
Out of Blue (2018)
Unlike most Hollywood garbage
If you want fake dialogue and unrealistic characters, stay with Hollywood. This is an attempt at realistic storytelling, being a detective is non eventful, boring work. While the movie moves slowly I feel the scenes are still rushed. Interaction between characters felt a bit rushed, dialogue cut down, made effective. That is the main weakness. There is nothing wrong with the story or the cast. The movie is not brooding, uncertain and dark enough. A missed opportunity.
Europa Report (2013)
Don't trust the glowing reviews
This movie is budget garbage. The glowing reviews are there to make you waste your time and money. Some people find joy in other's misery. Only after you see the movie will you laugh out loud when you read the 10 star reviews. I didn't waste much time but brought out my guitar and silently practiced finger movement on the fret board while watching. This is one nasty sleeping pill from leftwing Europe, detached from reality and common sense. So bad it felt like the work of a madman. I think the actors even thought, "WTF..."
The Hollow (2016)
OK
Static, slightly unrealistic screen play from most except the two investigating, from FBI. Better than most movies all in all.
Lars and the Real Girl (2007)
Half serious attempt at depicting mental illness
It is a low budget movie and I feel it originated from the idea of doing something strange for the hell of it. With more research and more seriousness to the approach, this could have been done so much better. But I think the attempt deserves respect anyway. I like odd movies if they have some truth to them, and this one does.
If you keep the preconception that it is not meant to be funny, you will enjoy the movie more. It's not fair or right to laugh about an ill person, is it? Where the movie becomes silly and funny, that is where the movie fails.
Out of the Furnace (2013)
Mass shooting, one at a time
There is a spreading sense of frustration and panic in the US, which comes from the notion of a deteriorating society. Some blame Wall Street, some blame drugs, some blame lost faith in God, and some, like myself, know it is because of big government. Jobs are drying up, the military is fighting confusing wars, drugs flooding the market carried in by illegals make people do stupid things, and the schools are not providing a good education any more. Mass shootings in despair happen more and more often as the collective mind is cornered and out of options, thinking the enemy is among itself. Though this movie is not about a mass shooting, it is set in that atmosphere. The hopelessness of a nation. The question, why. There will be more and more dark movies done like this one, as we as a country, allow big government to grow bigger and bigger and destroy us all. Obama and the Democrat party is the mastermind at pitting Americans against each other and racking up the national debt faster than people can shoot one another in the streets. The feeling of no future is on. Another movie in this genre that comes to mind is No country for old men.
Excellent acting and very disturbing. I rarely become this affected by a movie.
