Movies I have watched this summer

I have seen some movies over the past couple of summer months.

War of the worlds, this was entertaining, I thought Tom Cruise did a good job. the best part of the movie was the calling horns of the machines. Overall a B+ or its worth matinee prices. I probably wont by the DVD.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, This was better then the commercials by far. Gene Wilders performance in the original cannot be beat and I think Depp knew that and just went off the deep end. He at times came off as a jackson robot but other times he touched on Genius. the umpa's were not half bad either save the horrible last song. What in the world. I will buy this one on DVD.

Batman Begins I paid full price and may watch this one more time in the theatre I will also buy the directors cut and the theatrical release on DVD and I dont even like batman. This was a great movie. I'm sick of batman and this was a great movie Go see it.

Un Chein Andalou
This was an interesting movie it reminded me of a nightmare and a dream and I like that. I will watch this again before the week is out.

Masculine Feminine
in a word inspirational. I saw this in the theatre and will by the DVD

Finally ladies and Gentleman I have seen

Donnie Darko
wow what a great movie. everyone said I would love it and well I do!

AFI the Directors Terry Gilliam
This was ok I love Terry's work and it was more about his work then it was about him or how he shoots if there is a method behind someones madness they did not show it. You have a directors mind the director puts his mind on screen and I want to know the method Terry uses this does not show that. Before you get upset it can be done go out and buy or rent the secretary James spader and Maggie Gyllenhall. Listen to the directors commentary this is great commentary for any film maker.

I know I probably spelled names wrong I will fix it in the mix. So those are some movies I have seen this summer. I just received The Blue, White and Red trilogy in the mail and I'm looking forward to diving into those when I have a second.
