well, yeh... someone very close to me said it was quote "the best movie ever" or something like that... and all i can say to that was WHY? it was sooooo annoying. i felt like such a grinch in that cinema!! everyone was laughing around me ... even the fucking hyena behind me. anyways, so, it was full of PD and it had hottie gael garcia bernal... but that wasnt enough to save it from the script. full of dumb immature (in a bad way) jokes and just bad dialogue it really got up my goat! the main dude cant tell what is dream and what is real life so he has trouble getting the girl he loves/likes even though he acts like a complete jerk to her... i dunno... im sorry sarah IMAX but this movie really did nothing for me. even all the cute stop-motion animation and all that jazz got tiresome after a while... and, its a shame because he did so well with eternal sunshine of the spotless mindhalf nelson
well... after all the rave reviews for ryan goslings performance, i thought i should check it out and see what all the fuss was about. and again, i was let down. it wasnt brilliant.. it wasnt outstanding.. it was just ... it just was. although, that said... shareeka epps, who plays the student was pretty good... i thought she was infact better! anwyays ... the story goes teacher=druggie + student=catching him = relationship drama... it was a good portrayal of a teacher who actually cares about his students... just not about his own life. it didnt take the usual temptation of going down the sexual relationship aisle... basically it was a nice relationship thing that had its problems. nothing MAJOR happens in this film and the ending is also nothing exciting either. the movie had some good moments, the camera work i enjoyed and it had some gritty PD to make it feel at home. im not sure he really deserved an oscar nom for this one... but he certainly is one talent to look out for in the future.
