Are You Good or Evil? (User Poll by Boise_Lib)
Go See Hanna Instead of Cowboys & Aliens this Weekend (Blog Entry by dag)
Hanna was good but disappointing mostly of what Blankfist mentioned already. She takes out a whole base and suddenly shes scared of 3 guys and 1 woman in the finale? Ninja please.
Hanna with its fairytale bullshit was really weak as well. I was hoping it would have more of a Bourne Identity feel about it. Am not 5 give me complex storylines not rooted in fairytale bullshit. By the 3rd act all I wanted to do is fucking leave because the story started to fall apart and retcon everything they built up in act 1 and 2. Still good but it's not Leon or Nikita.
Overall this whole summer has been shit for movies.

Some Thoughts on the Ape Movie (Blog Entry by dag)
The closest I can think of as a completely positive spin on the future was 2010. Since it was all Cold War bullshit but the scientists worked together and that whole THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS EXPECT EUROPA ATTEMPT NO LANDING THERE.
Some Thoughts on the Ape Movie (Blog Entry by dag)
It's hard to create tension in a positive story. Like how do you market a hard Sci-fi movie about the colonization of say Mars? It would only work as a TV series but it would take an amazing creative behind it to make it work.

Anyone else see Malick's Tree of Life? (Cinema Talk Post)
But it's flawed and lacking in ambition.
I understand Malick was essentially channeling his childhood, his brother a guitar player went to Spain and committed suicide. Much of the shots of his childhood and mother are very influenced about how we remember events, the slight of hands, the lack of narrative for purely idealized scenes.
I think treating his parents in such clear cut lines diminishes the impact for me, the father is abusive but there is only one film to really show that. Some scenes of the kids succedding at school to then not being acknowledged by the father could have helped here. His mother is essentially an atypical angelic character which is just lazy.
I understand what he was trying to do, I understand the sincerity which alot of people mistook for prentious. But I don't think it builds up a very defined picture of the family, the lead child especially lacks any dimensionality, seems to be constantly brooding.
There are alot of unnecessary scenes as well. Whole sections dedicated to the kids playing that go on for too long. It felt like he shot much more and then cut around stuff so much feels disjointed. But this could be deliberate as well since this is like recollection of memories by Sean Penn. But it doesn't travel in time, so my weird assumption by the end is that everyone died at one point. I would have liked more time phases. But it looks like he focused specifically on time period.
The ending is the worst, where it just jumping into straight Judeo Christianic scenes. The dinosaurs?? Why? What did add? I wanted to laugh when I saw it.
Favourite moment, the child playing guitar with his father on the piano. Beautiful.
