    On the same random visit to FutureShop that led to me buying Saturday Night Fever, they had the Blu-ray/DVD combo of The Tree of Life for $9.99. I wasn't planning to buy it, but at that price, why not?

    I rated this a B+ last time, saying that there was a much better, smaller film buried in there. A lot of my complaints still stand (the attempts to tie this all in to the origins of the universe and all the Sean Penn stuff just don't feel like they truly belong), but I decided the underlying strength of the core of the film warranted an A-.

    First new movie of the day!

    A dirty cop in Los Angeles drama with a great cast, except Keanu. No matter what is happenin' to this guy, his voice never changes. Everyone else, includin' Hugh Laurie, Chris Evans, Common, Forest Whitaker, Cedric the Entertainer, Jay Mohr, and so on, bring a reality to their characters...and there's this dead weight at the center of it all, draggin' 'em down.

    Ah, well...

    I've got the day off, and today is new release day! WOO!!!

    82. The Hunger Games (✩✩✩✩) - Theatre
    83. Like Crazy: (✩✩✩✩) - On Demand - A couple's relationship is strained when the girl, who's been studying on a student visa, finds that she can't get beck into the U.S. Anotn Yelchin and Felicity Jones star. I got this movie after seeing The Hunger Games because I wanted to see something else with Jennifer Lawrence in it, but her part was small. I did get to discover Felicity Jones though. Anyway, good movie. It's raw and real.

    84. Newlyweds: (✩✩✩½) - On Demand - Ed Burns' docudrama about married life. Realistic tone, good watch that gets better as it progresses.

    85. Dear John: (✩✩✩) - TV - A military man is placed overseas and this puts a strain on his relationship with a girl he met. Stars Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried.

    86. Carriers: (✩✩½) - TV - Post apocalyptic movie where four 20-somethings are on the road after the population has been wiped out by a plague. Not the best, but it's watchable. Chis Pine really shines though. Apparently this one was shot in 2006 but sat on the shelf for a few years.

    87. The Karate Kid: (✩✩✩✩) - DVD - Despite all the talk of remakes, Jaden Smith or nepotism, I found this movie to be quite good. It's very well shot and epic in scale. It's a good looking movie, and Jackie Chan was spectacular as Mr. Han, the "Mr. Miyagi" equivalent. My only real gripe is the title. Jaden Smith's character is learning kung fu, not karate. I can understand them wanting to capitalize on a popular movie's title though, so I can sort of let it go, but it's still a stretch.

    88. Vertical Limit: (✩✩✩) - DVD - Chris O'Donnell is on a quest to rescue his sister and a billionaire who are trapped in a crevice on K2. Not a great movie, but it has some good tension.

    89. Killers: (✩✩½) - DVD - A woman (Katherine Heigl) meets a guy (Ashotn Kutcher) and they get married. Then one day, people show up trying to kill her husband and he has to confess that he used to be an assassin for the government. Not a good movie or romantic comedy, but I don't care. I only got it to see Katherine Heigl.

    90. Cyberbully: (✩✩½) - On Demand - Girl is bullied by false rumors online and is almost driven to suicide as a result. Typical TV movie fare, but it holds your attention.

    91. The Change-Up: (✩✩✩) - On Demand - Ryan Reynolds, a womanizer and Jason Bateman, an overworked family man make a wish over a fountain and end up switching bodies. Hilarity ensues. It was enjoyable, but it's nothing to write home about. Olivia Wilde was probably at her hottest in this one though. She played a very attractive and sexual character.

    92. 50/50: (✩✩✩✩½) - On Demand - A 27 year old guy discovers he has cancer and this movie takes us through his struggle with poignance and humor. It's one of the best and deepest comedies I've ever seen. Seth Rogen does his usual shtick, but I like it. Lots of recognizable american and canadian actors are involved as well. Great movie. Check it out.

    46. Attenberg (B)

    Attenberg: This Greek film from 2010 is just now making it to the United States. It's only the second feature film to be written and directed by Athina Rachel Tsangari, but you almost wouldn't know it. Outside of some issues of pacing (I could cut out 5 minutes without removing any content) it's a very assured work, with a camera that is at times fluid and at other times content to remain perfectly still, in both cases often featuring very long takes. Where the film is a little clumsy, I think, is in the writing. It's essentially about two things: Marina's sexual awakening and her relationship with her dying father. Only the through-line with her father makes it to the end of the film; Marina's early experiences with sex (which seem to be the main story early on) fade more and more into the background as the film goes on, leaving a bit of a disjointed feel. No matter, though. The films is at times very funny, and cute, and the three main performances (Marina is played by a first time actress) are all terrific.

    And Dr. Bashir is in it! (Pretty mediocre movie, though)

    I still haven't seen that, but I would like to. It's worth point out that Seth Rogen is doing his usual shtick because he's playing a character based on himself (Will Reiser, the writer, had cancer and Rogen was his friend through it all).

    I saw that a few months ago. Very good movie; my father passed away from cancer early last year, so there was a bit of a personal connection to the subject.

    45. The Hunger Games

    It's a very well done adaption of the book. They let go of the first person narration of the book (which would have resulted in a lot of voice over), but replaced them with things like the two commentators during the Games, which fit great. The casting (and acting) was very good, as was the desing of the world (maybe District 13 didn't seem as poor as it was in the book, but that's always going to happen in films where you can't have all your actors and extras starve for several weeks just to look the part).
    If I had one complain, I'd be the camera work: I liked the shaky-cam during the fight scenes, but in some quieter moments it would have been nice not to shake and move the camera the whole time and insert a cut every second.

    The Alamo Drafthouse has brought back the Studio Ghibli retrospective with another collection of 35mm prints!

    This week's release is KDS, which was a cute movie about a witch havin' to set out on her own in a new town with just her mother's broom, her father's radio & her black cat Jiji.

    It was a cute movie, glad I went to see it.

    Tried to get into Mirror Mirror last night, but didn't have any luck, maybe next time...

    Will be goin' to see Wrath of the Titans 3D tomorrow night & have a plan to see Hunger Games on Wednesday.

    ^ I've been wanting to see Kiki's Delivery Serice for a while now.

    Interesting to know what kind of influence he had on the movie, because it's clear that there is some. At first, I thought he wrote the movie.

    Here are a few fun facts from the IMDb...

    - "During a roundtable discussion with the cast, screenwriter Will Reiser revealed that Bryce Dallas Howard came up with the title of the film. The crew was skeptical about it when she first suggested it to them on the set of the art gallery scene. When she found out that the title had been changed to the one she suggested, she was surprised."

    - "Seth Rogen says he was actually on the toilet when Will Reiser told him he had cancer. As funny as the two of them thought this was, it was deemed too disgusting for the film."

    Also...

    As I was watching, I got the impression that the scene in the bathroom where Adam was shaving his head had a lot of improvised dialog. Turns out I was right.

    "Joseph Gordon-Levitt actually shaved his head during filming. Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen were improvising in character while the cameras kept rolling since the scene was not in the script."

    Thomas Jane made his directorial debut with this film about a newly married couple drivin' across the dessert at night when they find a mysterious accident victim on the dark highway.

    Jane stars, and Ron Perlman has a small role as a sheriff.

    There's a mix of location shootin' in New Mexico and painfully obvious green screen. I thought it was a bit too stylized, not enough substance, and the twist doesn't make a whole lot of sense, really...

    I'd say its worth watchin'...ya can probably rent the Disney/American release somewhere. The prints the Drafthouse are showin' are restored originals, with the Japanese dialogue & english subtitles.

    93. The Seven Year Itch: (✩✩✩) - TV - A working man in New York spends the hot summer by himself while his wife and son spend the summer elsewhere. During this time, he entertains thoughts of having a fling and spends time with his hot blonde neighbor played by Marilyn Monroe. I wish this movie were more risque, but what can you expect from a movie made in the 50s. This movie is also a play and apparently the guy does cheat there, but it wasn't allowed in movies at the time.

    94. Confined: (✩✩✩½) - On Demand - TV movie starring Emma Caulfield, David James Elliott and Michael Hogan. A family that movies into a house in the 'burbs and the wife (Caulfield) suspects that their neighbor (Hogan) is keeping someone in the basement. It was pretty gripping for a TV movie.

    95. Love Happens: (✩✩✩) - TV - A self help guru, who's wife was killed a few years ealier, is in Seattle conducting a seminar that helps people deal with the loss of a loved one. While there, he falls for a woman and deals with his own pain. Stars Aaron Eckhart and Jennifer Aniston. Decent watch.

    96. La Jetée: (✩✩✩✩) - TV - This is a 30-minute scifi film made in France in 1962. It's the short movie that 12 Monkeys is based on and follows the same basic plot.

    ***Spoilers ahead, but no real surprises if you've already seen 12 Monkeys***

    A boy sees a man die at the airport, and as an adult, is haunted by that memory along with the image of a woman he saw. He lives underground after the world has been devastated by nuclear war. There, he becomes part of an experiment in time travel. He's sent to both the past and the fututre to find ways to help his world in the present. While in the past, he also meets the woman he saw as a child and spends time with her. Ultimately, when his job is done, he chooses to live in the past with this woman and ends up getting killed at the airport by someone from his own time. He's the man that his past counterpart, the boy, saw dying.

    This movie is made up entirely of black and white stills with a bit of music and a narrator telling the story. It's basically a slideshow. It may not sound very compelling, but you get into the story pretty quickly and it really does hold your attention. It's got more creative science fiction than 12 Monkeys and it's more tragic. If you liked 12 Monkeys, check this out to see where it's ideas came from.

    About the scifi element that I thought was more creative... It was the time travel, and I liked how it was handled. Our man didn't physically travel through time, he was blindfolded, drugged and "projected" into the past. At first, he'd see the past in dream-like images, then over time, he learned to see these images as full scenes until he was "awake" in the past in some sort of astral body, while his real body slept in the future/his present. The woman he met in the past referred to him as a "ghost" due to his appearing and disappearing from her life. While projecting himself into the future, he met people who had further mastered time travel and could apparently send people back, fully in the flesh. They helped him go back in the end for real.

    97. Some Like It Hot: (✩✩✩) - TV - Two musicians witness a mob killing and go on the run by disgusing themselves as women and joining a girl band. Jack Lemon, Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe star. Finally saw it and enjoyed it. Monroe's acting was much better here than is was in The Seven Year Itch. Something must have been going on with her while filming that one. So ends my Marilyn Monroe weekend. Reading up on her, I see that I'm almost exactly the same age now that she was when she died.

    I was really more disappointed with this than Ghost Rider. I mean, it's my own fault I guess. I didn't expect much out of GR so it fared well enough in the story department. The story here is clear enough to see what was on paper but it fell flat for me from a performance standpoint. I also wasn't buying the Perseus/Andromeda angle. It didn't feel organic or natural at all. The CGI was really well and the big action sequences didn't disappoint it was the story and the actors lack of selling it that was the disconnect. The story's focus for the characters was of Father/Son loyalty and love. The Perseus/Helios dynamic worked better than Perseus/Zeus and that was the one that should've excelled, imo.

    First new movie of April, saw it last night at the Village with my buddy Jeff...

    Not as bad as the first one, but still not a great movie. The 3D was put to good use, more or less, and I liked the cyclopses.

    If ya liked the remake, watch this one. If not, why would ya watch the sequel?

    21 Jump Street: It was amusing, but the funniest film of the year? Not a chance. A few days removed, and it's fading fast in my memory. The cameos were great, though, and displayed the original source material the respect it deserved (little). The critics are right about one thing, though. Channing Tatum should continue doing comedies like this and never look back. In most of his serious roles before this, he was already funny, anyways. Just not on purpose.

    Tonight's free movie was a documentary about Jiro Ono, an award winnin', world renowned sushi chef in Tokyo, with a ten-seat restaurant in a subway station...

    I guess I would have been more interested in it if I actually ate sushi, but there was some informative stuff to be found in the film, and it was interestin' to see the kind of work that goes into the preperation & all that.

    May go see Mirror, Mirror tomorrow, or maybe The Raid: Redemption before my shift...

    The Incredible Hulk Returns - DVD

    Went to see TRR yesterday afternoon befoe work.

    Pretty good Asian action movie about a SWAT raid against a criminal mastermind holed up in an apartment tower...when the police are discovered, the mastermind offers free rent for life to every criminal in the building who helps kill the intruders.

    The action/fight sequences are well choreographed, and easy to follow. And quite a few are bad ass.

    After work, I picked up the double feature DVD with two of the post-series Hulk movies. Watchin' ...Returns now.
