    After Porn Ends - Netflix Instant

    Watchd the gawd awful Zoom on DVD the other day. Saw it for four bucks at Wal-Mart the other night...and felt robbed when it was over. It was an interestin' idea, but the muggin' for the camera from Chevy Chase, Courtney Cox's pratfalls, and the general "screw this" Tim Allen just oozes throughout the movie...plus, the kids castin' sucked and why was there a Wendy's commercial right in the middle of it?

    Went to see The Hobbit in 2D the other day. I enjoyed it, especially since Ian McKellan got to kick some ass as Gandalf. I'll be goin' to see it in 3D and the HFR soon, too, since I can get into 'em for free.

    Took three tries, but I finally got through #Slevin on DVD. Great cast, but not a great movie.

    Hitchcock was an alright movie about the makin' of Psycho. Still think there could have been more to tell about that movie & its production, that this movie just hits the highlights without really talkin' about it, or informin' the audience about anything they wouldn't already know.

    And, finally, the documentary After Porn Ends, which takes a look at different porn stars, how they got into the industry, what they did while there, and what they are doin' now that they aren't porn stars. Watched it on Netflix last night after work.

    Did y'all know Asia Carrerra is in Mensa?

    Another of Steven Spielberg's early straight dramas, starring a young Christian Bale (as well as John Malkovich, in a rare non-crazy role, and Miranda Richardson) as a British schoolboy trying to survive in Shanghai following the Japanese invasion in World War II. As one would expect from Spielberg, it's technically excellent, and features a great performance from Bale, displaying all the potential he would go on to fulfill in his later career (a rare male child actor to become an adult star).

    144. This Is 40 (B+)

    Judd Apatow has directed only four movies, but I suspect casual moviegoers would probably guess he's done a lot more, given how widespread his influence on the comedy genre has been, thanks to his many writing and producing gigs, and the proliferation of his disciples (including, recently, Lena Dunham, who cameos here, alongside expected figures like Jason Segel and Bridesmaids' Chris O'Dowd).

    This is a "sort of" sequel to Knocked Up, focusing on Katherine Heigl's character's sister and brother-in-law (Leslie Mann and Paul Rudd), but I think they'd honestly have been better-off without that connection, because it really raises more questions than it answers, both in terms of where Heigl and Rogen are despite this movie centering on a big family gathering (Heigl, obviously, was unlikely to return; perhaps as a consequence, Rogen misses an Apatow movie for the first time), and because this movie's Pete and Debbie don't really remind me of what I remember of the earlier movie's couple at all.

    That said, it's a fun comedy. Apatow's movies are generally criticized for being overlong, and certainly I could edit this down further fairly easily (excising the stuff with Debbie's employees would be the easiest subplot to ditch), but I didn't think the runtime was a big issue. The movie as a whole is generally observational in style, so it doesn't have a strong plot to begin with. Rudd and Mann are both in top form, and the expansive supporting cast (enabled by the aforementioned runtime) provides for plenty of good moments. The most emotionally affecting work is done by Albert Brooks and John Lithgow as their fathers.

    It was too kid friendly for my tastes, but it does have heart and I like the concept, story and casting enough to want to get it when I can.

    352. Supergirl (✩✩✩) - DVD - I recently purchased this one on DVD. It's a shame that it wasn't included in the Superman movie set or even released on blu-ray, but hopefully someday it will be. I'm reviewing this because I got the version with the extra 10 minutes, bringing the runtime to 124 minutes. I hope to get the longest version at some point just to have, but what I saw was adequate. I like Helen Slater as Supergirl and I liked Faye Dunaway as the wannabe sorceress. It's a decent story and an underrated movie if you get past the Salkind-style camp.

    The intro is kind of catchy…

    Can't believe it cost $1 milion to make.

    353. Finding Mrs. Claus (✩✩½) - Live TV - Mrs. Claus travels to Las vegas to help a woman in need, and following along is Santa himself to find out what she's up to. Stars Mira Sorvino and Will Sasso. Due to some magic that allows them to blend into society, the actors spend much of the movie looking like themselves. Not a great movie, but not bad either.

    354. Naughty or Nice (✩✩✩✩) - Live TV - A career woman named Krissy Kringle was just fired from her job and accidentally gets Santa's Naughty or Nice list (in the form of a book) mailed to her. The book is magic and contains everyone's secrets which she uses to her advantage. Krissy's parents were played by Michael Gross and Meredith Baxter of Family Ties fame. I thought that was a nice touch. I tuned in expecting your usual lame Hallmark TV movie, but this one was actually really good. A little more effort was put into crafting a story more complex than your usual TV movie fare. This would have made a pretty good big budget picture. I plan to get this on DVD. I like Christmas movies and this one is worthy of my collection.

    Akira Kurosawa's first big international success, which introduced a whole new style of storytelling. It holds up exceptionally well. The 50s style of Japanese acting featured in Kurosawa's films can take a bit of getting used to, but once you do the calibre of the work is easy to appreciate. Machiko Kyo is the real star of this one, aided by the fact that her character changes the most pronouncedly between the tellings. It's also an interesting movie to watch from the perspective of a law student.

    146. Three Kings (A)

    This is, in my estimation, the best film made about the Gulf War, but I can only think of three (this, Courage Under Fire, and Jarhead), so perhaps that's not that big a distinction. That said, still a terrific movie -- a more dramatic Kelly's Heroes for the 1990s (or maybe a grittier precursor to George Clooney's Ocean's 11). Much like David O. Russell's later The Fighter (and Silver Linings Playbook, if the reviews are to believed), it takes a pretty standard story arc ("guys engaged in immoral/self-interested conduct suddenly get a crash course in empathy and become real heroes"), but delivers it in a fresh, engaging way. It also functions as an interesting time capsule, given what happened later.

    145. Rashomon (A+)
    146. Three Kings (A)
    147. Les Miserables (A)

    Tom Hooper's followup to The King's Speech has proved critically divisive (though audiences seem to approve so far), for a variety of reasons. To an extent, the knives have been out for him since he had the temerity to beat David Fincher in 2010; the musical genre itself has detractors (and this one in particular); and Hooper makes some bold stylistic choices that will understandably attract supporters and critics. I think the style choices work, emphasizing the confined circumstances the characters always find themselves in (despite Les Miserables generally being thought of as an epic, it's really only epic in toto, rather than scene-to-scene).

    Among the actors, Jackman, Hathaway, Barks, and Redmayne are the top tier (as well a superb cameo by the original Jean Valjean, Colm Wilkinson). I also thought Seyfried was quite good, in a part that is rather thankless (the actress who originated her jokingly described her as "the most boring soprano ever in an 80s musical"). Baron Cohen is, weirdly, doing a French accent despite everyone else doing English ones. Crowe isn't a great singer, but he serves well enough, I think. The immediacy of the live-singing really works, and there are a number of changes made that on the whole work well (as well as reincorporating various parts of the novel that weren't in the musical); there's one addition at the end that works wonders.

    I saw this in Sydney, Cape Breton, on Christmas Day with my cousin Maggie, who had no knowledge of either the musical or the book, and she also loved it. It has flaws as a film, but as populist entertainment to invoke big emotions, it's a huge success, and I loved it.

    148. Django Unchained (A)

    The following day, after driving home to Charlottetown (which took about seven hours) to attend a family Boxing Day event, I went to the late showing of Tarantino's latest. Tarantino's filmography might be broken down into tree parts: the 1990s crime films (Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown), the early 2000s era of 1970s cinema homages (Kill Bill 1 & 2, Death Proof), and now the historical epics (which also have homage elements, of course). This is another historical revenge fantasy (albeit without the heavy historical revisionist elements; perhaps we'll get a sequel where Django takes down Nathan Bedford Forrest).

    The cast is uniformly strong, beginning with Christoph Waltz, who once again shows his effortless command of Tarantino's language (whilst playing a character the audience doesn't have to feel conflicted about liking). Jamie Foxx, in the title role, is much more subdued than most of the other actors (he's supposed to be the man of few words), but he's strong, and sells all the key moments. As the main bad guys, Leonardo DiCaprio and Samuel L. Jackson both deliver the goods. The latter delivers on one of my main hopes for the film, that Tarantino could get something new out of Jackson, who has been phoning it in for years; count on Quentin, I guess, since it was his Pulp Fiction that established his persona to begin with. Kerry Washington is fine, but the role is rather underwritten for the main female in a Tarantino film.

    Structurally the movie is a bit undisciplined (and I imagine there's been stuff cut out; Amber and Russ Tamblyn appear in the opening scenes in the background, without any dialogue), and there's a moment that feels like the climax, but isn't (though I can see the story reason why). Nonetheless, it's a lovely canvas, and Tarantino's music choices are as good as ever (Jim Croce's "I Got A Name" being my favourite).

    Overall a well acted, written film just not perfect. I'd seen some commentary online where people said they had a hard time following the story as it jumps around as the investigation into the mole proceeds. I thought their were noticeable verbal queues and in some places musical queues to let you know from when we went from the "present('73)" and to the past.

    I do feel like the movie felt every bit it's running length. I good movie but no so good I'd want to own it. Doesn't have high re-watchability imo. Worth some awards for sure.

    The Sound of My Voice ✭✭✭½ - I watched it twice to see what I missed the first time. It's a very good movie that I never have noticed if it wasn't mentioned on here. I don't want to spoil anything about it. Go watch it.
    The Campaign ✭✭✭
    Snow White and the Huntsman ✭✭✭
    Despicable Me ✭✭½ - Aside from the minions and the youngest daughter's antics, this movie is kind of a bore
    House at the End of the Street ✭✭ - somebody at the core, there's a good movie dying to get out. Making it a scareless (literally) teen horror film was a mistake.

    This will be my final new theatrical experience for the year, based on what's scheduled to come in.

    Joe Wright's first two movies were brilliant, but he got tons of flack from people accusing him of being the return of James Ivory, which led to him straying off to prove them wrong by making The Soloist, which I didn't see (like most people), and Hanna, which was quite interesting; even now, returning to classic literature adaptation in an historical setting, he was motivated to throw out his plans for a traditional version in favour of this highly experimental staging. It...kind of works. I'd kind of like to see what the more traditional approach would have looked like. The deliberately stagey approach is interesting, and seems like a shoo-in for the Production Design Oscar, but it also calls attention to the artifice of the proceedings, so it's hard to care about the characters a lot of the time.

    Though regardless they would have to deal with the miscasting of Vronsky, which is, needless to say, a problem. Keira Knightley does very well as the title character, and there's a knockout supporting performance from Alicia Vikander (also in A Royal Affair this year, which I haven't seen yet but plan to), among many familiar faces Wright has recruited (including Knightley's Pride & Prejudice love interest Matthew Macfadyen, amusingly playing her brother here. Jude Law is also very strong, as Anna's jilted husband, who the movie plays as a sympathetic character (moreso than Anna, even), a decidedly unusual choice.

    355. Sorority Row (✩✩½) - DVD - Some girls pull a prank and one of them ends up dead. They then decide to cover it up. Months later, someone who knows what they did starts coming after them. It's Pretty Little Liars in a two-hour movie. It was a watchable thriller but it lacked a clever ending. The girls were hot though and I got to see Briana Evigan in a starring role. She's the daughter of Greg Evigan.

    356. Into the Wild (✩✩✩½) - DVD - The story of Chris McCandless, the guy who left the modern world behind to roam around in the woods. I heard about his story on Oprah a while back. Sean Penn, who produced this movie, wanted Leonardo DiCaprio but got Emile Hirsch instead. He did good and looked like the real McCandless. I was also surprised to see that this thing had a pretty substantial supporting cast that included Kristen Stewart, Vince Vaughn, Zach Galifianakis, Catherine Keener, Marcia Gay Harden and William Hurt. I don't remember seeing Galifianakis. As for the story itself, it starts slow but grabs you eventually.

    357. The Christmas Heart (✩✩½) - Live TV - Another Christmas TV movie. A boy needs a heart transplant and a lot of people and the right events come together to make it happen. It was alright.

    358. Arbitrage (✩✩✩½) - On Demand - Richard Gere plays a hedge fund billionaire who accidentally kills his mistress in a car accident and then tries to cover it up. This is on top of his troubles with some Madoff-style fraud that he's also trying to cover up. It's a good thriller. Some things unfolded a little too easily for the sake of expedience but the meat of the movie, which was about a rich man's power and his attempt to make his troubles go away was pretty decent. I also enjoyed seeing Laetitia Casta in an acting role for the first time. Then there's Brit Marling. This is the first time I've seen her in a mainstream role. It's good to see her realizing her goals of using her independent films to jumpstart a career in film.

    200. How to Kill Your Neighbor's Dog (B)

    Dave: Although slight, and with a premise that takes some machinations to swallow, this is a funny romantic comedy with larger, more adult aims than most of what the genre has produced in the past decade. Kevin Kline's work-for-all legislation might have been plausible as presidential policy in the early 1990s, but it would be denounced by the right and cable news as Stalinism today, which is depressing.

    Soylent Green: Parts of this movie are exceptional cinema -- Edward G. Robinson's final scene, the opening montage which appropriates the editing of Cuban cinema of the 60s, and the chaos of the long food lines which turn into riots. Parts of the movie are terrible cinema -- Heston's hilariously large New York apartment in a world where space is supposed to be at a premium, the clumsy staging of Heston's supposedly stealthy entrance into the Soylent factory, the awful 70s fashion raised to the limit (because this is the future!), and others I won't list. There's a great movie waiting to be found in this material, but the makers only foud an okay one in it.

    How to Kill your Neighbor's Dog: At times this verges on sentimentality, but most of the emotion feels earned, and the gleeful dickishness of Kenneth Branagh (apologies for the spelling) is amusing throughout. It nails Los Angeles, too, even though I am not convinced it was made there.

    I had originally planned to watch this before Christmas, but I was vacationing with relatives who turned out not to have a Blu-ray player (my cousin there has never seen this, either). But as a result it ended up being my 150th film of the year, which is a nice place to be. I've reviewed this in earlier years, so not much to say about it, really, other than it's obvious why it has endured for nearly 70 years.

    If there's any genre that is in desperate need of resuscitation right now, it's the romantic comedy, which has fallen far even from the 1990s.

Its principle problem is one of indecision - is this a movie about a son finding out about his father who he barely knew, or is it a movie about the Star Trek phenomenon that his father created? The movie never decides; it seems as if it began as one film and morphed into another during production, but that no one could choose which direction to ultimately take in editing.

    The result of this is a mixed bag. There are home videos and unedited interview clips that suggest a Gene Roddenberry the publicity machine could never allow. There are also a parade of talking heads praising Roddenberry's vision, even crediting him for the decisions of others (including the infamous interracial kiss during the original series' third year), as well as a parade of the wackiest of fans. These latter elements are really a distraction from Rod Roddenberry's attempt to understand his father, and, worse, old hat.

    Other elements are just missed opportunities; an interview with Majel Barrett before her death lets her be evasive and vague and an interview with George Lucas never seems to have a purpose or substance. Production values are top notch, but they can't provide this film with a focus.

    359. The Words (✩✩✩½) - On Demand - A struggling writer becomes famous after finding and publishing someone else's manuscript as if it were his own. Stars Bradley Cooper, Zoe Saldana, Jeremy Irons, Dennis Quaid and Olivia Wilde. The movie didn't get rave reviews, but I thought it was pretty good for the most part. In hindsight, parts of it do seem a bit half-baked though, so I can see where some of the criticism lies. Still, I recomend it. It's worth a look.

    360. Employee of the Month (✩✩✩½) - Live TV - Two employees who work at a Costco-style warehouse store compete for employee of the month as well as the affections of the hot new cashier. Stars Dax Shepard, Dane Cook and Jessica Simpson. I liked this movie. The comedic performances and wacky hijinks, especially from Dax, were pretty good. And Jessica Simpson played a genuine character. This is the kind of movie that's easy to dismiss at first glance, but I'm glad I saw it.

    This concludes my movie reviews for 2012.

    202. Men In Black 3 (B)
    203. A Bronx Tale (B-)

    Men In Black 3: After the first sequel, my expectations for this installment were pretty low, but it turned out to be pretty entertaining. Josh Brolin was an inspired casting choice for the role of young Agent K, and there are also nice supporting turns from Michael Stuhlbarg and Bill Hader. It is still lesser than the original, of course, but unlike the second film, worth a rental.

    A Bronx Tale: The first hour of this movie is awfully reminiscent of Goodfellas, but the second half goes off in a much more interesting direction that examines the relations between the Italian American community and the black community in the late 1960s. Unfortunately, the more interesting part is hampered by a couple of weak performances in key roles.
