Who Is America? (2018)

Genius

[10/10 · 22 July 2018]

Sacha Baron Cohen does it again! This is an absolutely amazing example of... everything! Spot on in his characters they bring out the best and worst of the people around them. Now an expert in the field the replies and reactions comes organic to the character and the quick though of Cohen is impressive. While making us laugh and enjoy the show, at the same time he exposes the fascistic views, the racism, the bigotry and the ruthless greed of politicians and lawmakers. The freakshow circus that is USA gets thrown belly up and spill's its guts over the viewer. And how gay is the husband of Jane Page Thomson? He needs to get out of the closet lol. Poor dude.

So if you have not watch this yet, congratulations! You are about to get your mind blown. It's a lot of fun but kind of leaves a sad aftertaste. While still feeling like a positive thing overall, a kind of wake up for some call I suppose, it is sad to see people joke about rape and killing. What a world... Enjoy!

Columbus Day (2008)

Yawn, Not the best Val Kilmer movie I've seen.

[5/10 · 4 May 2008]

Val Kilmer runs around in a park for a whole day. Sorry I just told you the whole movie.

Not the best I've seen but not even close to the worst. There is really nothing wrong with the acting. The story is just so boring. Endless phonecalls here and there to persons that are not introduced so you have to guess who it may be and that just makes it more confusing. Sudden laps in time back and forward but without indication on whats past and what is present.

The filming is very nice but would fit better to a romantic comedy. Endless panoramics over the park and closeups on people doing parkthings is nice for so many seconds but not througe a whole movie.

Sorry to say I couldn't watch it to the end. Still I give it a 5 because the movie makers has potential to become better. I hope this was low budget because it would explain a lot.

See the movie for yourselves and remember taste is different. You might love it who knows.
