Goodbye Solo

The Carousel
Good
I was looking for a heart-warming-what a great world Drama. What I got instead was a meandering story without a begining or an end. Every question it askes was left unanswered. It was if we saw a few weeks of these people's lives and then left without finding out about them. I'm not really angry with this movie, except I don't think it was effective. Good job trying something new, but borring is still borring, and unreseolved leaves you, unresolved. The cool part was that it was set in Winston Salem! Always cool to see some local landmarks, however if you don't care about such things, don't bother.

1/2/2009 The Grand Theater Good Why was it called 7 pounds. This movie could have been excellent. It had great acting. The storytelling was the problem. It's annoying because you don't find out the whole story until the very end. That's ok if what we find at the end is something amazing, or shocking. Something like "Seven" "Fight Club" "Sixth Sense" They had shocking ending which made not knowing what's going on worth it. 7 pounds wasn't worth it.

If they were somehow connected, then maybe it would have been better. If maybe there were no clues given it wouldhave worked better. The clues were given throughout the film, and you can piece it together yourself. The problem is you're not surprised by the ending you've been waiting for, yo...

Green Book

Green Book AMC High Point 8 Superior This was a great movie. It made you laugh, it made you cry. It was a really interesting look at a topic that's been looked in to many times. Even though the theme was the same, this movie felt fresh and original. I can fully support this movie for Best Picture.

The Reader

2/16/2009 The Grand Theater Excellent Where is the press on this one? What a great movie. Very sensual, if you're uncomfortable with naked people, this one isn't for you. There's a lot of naked. There was so much involved in WWII it's amazing how many stories can come from it on all sides. Great acting, go see it!
