I'm a big fan of Pixar films, but this new animated division of Disney, which crafted Moana, is superb. The quality of the art is clean and georgeous. The personal idiocyncristic movements that capture each character are reminiscent of the work of the great animator Hayao Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli (Spirited Away). This animated movie is a gem, must see movie. Beyond it's technical excellence, the story is full and unique. Disney gets a new princess (OK... Chief's daughter). Children get two new songs with which to drive their parents crazy and replace Frozen (on repeat). The Asian Pacific is brought to life. Both children and adults will love this picture. I'm a fan. I give it a 10 (spectacular) out of 10.
this movie made me a lesbian
This film can't live up to the original film trilogy - it's missing the complex psychology that was written by Stieg Larson and the multilayered, unique characterization and performance of Noomi Rapace. As a stand alone movie, it is almost a super-hero action movie (the petite Lisbeth seems to miraculously recover unbruised or unbroken from physical encounters with assailants twice her size and weight). It has a couple of profound moments and definitely a gut churning sinister vibe. Under that revised criteria, I give the film a 6.9 (average good) out of 10. [Action Adventure]. As an addition to the original series, I give it a 5 (disappointing) out of 10. [Psychological Thiller].
Caught this movie on Netflix one afternoon. Had no idea what it was about or never heard of it, but being a fan of Colin's I decided to give it a try. I was happy that I did. This is a beautiful movie. It's not a fast pace lots of action kind of flick. It's a take it's time, slow, stunning, in depth character building, kind of movie. Definitely a movie you should watch at least once in your life. I personally loved it!!
BEST MUSICAL EVER!!!!!!!!!
I simply can't believe the low rating of this amazing adaptation. Everything's spot -on: the acting, the music, the scenery...
Some might find it depressing, but I thought it was powerful, incredibly witty and altogether glorious. Cynthia Nixon was astonishing. I knew very little about Emily Dickinson going in, but now I'm clamouring to find out more.
AND there was a surprising amount of thwoorp action. #yaas
