The constant violation of the «one five - minute conversation would
end this
movie» rule would be forgivable if the production offered something interesting and non-story-related for these characters to do, but no
such luck.
Not to mention the niggling fact that, in the face of The Sweet Hereafter's sure - footed feel for tragic desolation, The Captive resolutely doles out not one, but two giddily happy
endings — both hug - laden reunions / endurance tests, shot in blandest TV -
movie fashion, as though even Egoyan couldn't care less about
such tidy resolution.
Movies with unclear
endings aren't hard to come by but films
such as this that make you want to discuss and evaluate its twists are hard to duplicate.
Such coincidences
end up forming the entire basis of the
movie's third act, as the three are reunited and a decision, apparently, must be made.
The
ending, however, is too abrupt and leaves the audience without the catharsis that
such an emotionally charged
movie needs.
The joke left to the
end of the video is that if you vote, Mark Ruffalo will do a nude scene in his next
movie (at which point Mark Ruffalo pretends to be surprised that he's expected to do
such a thing).
A wealth of other efforts — from TV comedies Married... with Children and The Simpsons to
movies such as The Royal Tenenbaums and Welcome to the Dollhouse — have all fared well, albeit from vastly varying
ends of the spectrum.
Bad
movies happen to good actors all the time, but it's hard to explain how so many stars
ended up in
such an inexplicable Christmas comedy.
In the tradition of
such end - of - class
movies, Superbad chronicles Hill and Cera's epic misadventures in securing alcohol for a raucous party where they hope to finally score with their respective crushes.
The title is a bit of a giveaway as to what happens in the
movie for the group of four men sent to do recon to find a major leader in the Taliban, but to its credit, the film does begin with a shot that takes place toward the
end that acknowledges as
such.
The quintessential sequel, the quintessential sci - fi actioner and one of the greatest films ever made, James Cameron's sequel to his breakthrough classic was
such a massive upgrade over its predecessor that it
ended up decimating the 1984 original in all filmmaking departments with effortless ease, and remains one of the most influential, entertaining and breathtaking action extravaganzas to ever grace our
movie screens.
In the shadow of
such tragedy, where innocent people saw their lives abruptly, senselessly
ended, one must ask: what are we doing here talking about
movies?
Home Alone marked the beginning of the
end of John Hughes as a creative force, who has spent the remainder of his career penning screenplays for
such movies as Dennis the Menace, Baby's Day Out, Beethoven, Flubber, and the two Home Alone sequels — almost all kid stuff.
Such comparisons may be unfair, but they were also inevitable, and although «The World's
End» isn't as likely to become an instant classic as its predecessors, the movie is an incredibly fitting end to the trilogy that's every bit as funny at times and still vastly better than a majority of Hollywood comedi
End» isn't as likely to become an instant classic as its predecessors, the
movie is an incredibly fitting
end to the trilogy that's every bit as funny at times and still vastly better than a majority of Hollywood comedi
end to the trilogy that's every bit as funny at times and still vastly better than a majority of Hollywood comedies.
On the other hand, British
movies often confuse the daylights out of me because they weave subplots together in
such a way that sometimes instead of finishing with... oh, say a nice cinematic cardigan, the
end result is more reminiscent of the dust bunnies under my sofa.
It's hard to imagine a big - ticket summer
movie in 2013
ending on either an out - of - season holiday greeting or
such a quiet, melancholy note.
I want to reiterate that these are NOT my
end of the year selections, as I have so many other
movies I am eager to catch up on
such as Ava DuVernay's «13th» and Theodore Melfi's «Hidden Figures,» as well as new films by Martin Scorsese, Robert Zemeckis and many others.
It is just the most amazing thing to watch: «The World's
End» becomes a totally different kind of
movie about halfway through — intense, paranoid, violent — yet maintains the dry, rapid - fire wit that made its earlier scenes
such a joy to watch.
However the
ending left me with
such a incomplete feeling, I felt that it would be my review to wait for the next
movie before seeing this.
And it is not hard to imagine
such pulse and respiratory data influencing the way directors and editors put together their films, much the way test - audience reactions can lead film - makers to drop certain scenes, or even to change a
movie's
ending entirely.
Even without taking under account the evident, constant battle between both characters» «little angels and demons,» there are indeed several religious images throughout «Changing Lanes» and my guess is that Michell tried to make a not so subtle parallel between both characters escalating wrong - doings and Christ's dying for our transgressions, not unlike the ones depicted here, only for them to
end the film by actually achieving a redemption of sorts similar to Christ's resurrection, which for both characters in the film seemed so elusive throughout this day, even in moments
such as the one when the
movie manages to casually place the character played by Affleck (a non-Catholic, I think) inside a confessional with a priest, no less.
Yet, the film pulls and tugs at the heartstrings in
such a stereotypical fashion — every pause and every beat hits the mark at the same point that every other tragedy does — and the contrivances built into the script (a white woman Oscar helps at the grocery store
ends up being the one taking the cell phone video) overload an already loaded
movie.
«Red» is
such a rich
movie full of intelligence and craft and a great
ending to Kieslowski's brilliant career.
Overbearing mothers in
movies are as plentiful as shells on the sand, but rare is the overbearing mother who's written with
such love and care that she
ends up being less defined by her obnoxiousness than by everything else.
This buddy
movie / cop comedy takes its cue from
such police - dog stories as «Turner and Hooch» — which it directly references — as well as the 1990 TV pilot «Poochinski,» in which the ghost of a murdered detective
ends up inhabiting a gassy English bulldog.
Midway through an 11 o'clock number set in a bar in «The Greatest Showman» — there are several
such numbers; this
movie musical's turned up to 11 all the time — Hugh Jackman, as impresario P.T. Barnum,
ends his song and departs.
