Good movies, poor movies

A poor movie is one in which people insist to solve things: person A tries to a thing, it doesn’t work, it insists, it works. In Frozen, there’s a race from wolves. They don’t succeed at escaping, but they insist, and they escape. They are ready to jump, they don’t quite make it, but they insist and they make it. This happens with other characters in the movies (they ran from a huge snowman, they insist, and it works, one old guy doesn’t get to dance with the queen, he insists, he makes it and the list continues): A good movie is one in which when there is a trouble, the main character finds a creative solution. In The Bourne Ultimatum, the main character (interpreted by Matt Damon) finds creative solutions for escaping situations (at one time, he goes beneath a platform, so that he won’t be seen). In Skyfall, the 007 Agent (Daniel Craig) shows lots of creativity for solving problmes (at one time he climbs a moving elevator): It’s easy to insist. Most problems, though, don’t get solved this way.

Sugestia mea ar fi să vedeți filmul și abia ulterior să reveniți să citiți cele de mai jos (deși nu sunt multe lucruri cele pe care le voi spune). De asemenea, nu vă sugerez să vedeți trailerul decât după ce vedeți, mai întâi, filmul.

Love Actually (2003)

Love Actually (2003)

I just watched Love Actually (2003). Quite a nice movie. Good watch. Some thoughts: Love is universal. I saw the movie and thought of different episodes in my life. It’s a difficult thing, not turning things into some cliché. Most of the things we do in love are embarrassing, to a degree. Actually, I’d go one step further and say that most things we do are embarrassing. It is a realistic movie. At times, porn-realistic. I also liked this song from the movie:
