Restless (2011)
Sad story , yet beautiful movie..
Well,the movie its self deals with a very serious burden,a fatal illness.Every movie from now and then has a similar topic like this, so it's up to the point of the script and the director to show every aspect of the situation.Luckily,this film without being offensive reveals a clever way of coping with all the misfortunes of life.The road of "acceptance" and "moving on"..even by the person who is going to die.The title of the movie "Restless" gives away the key to this movie,and personally i would say the key to everything.Be happy and never "let go" until it's time to do so,when it no longer depends on you and your perspective towards life.
The characters of the movie played by Mia Wasikowska(Annabel)and Henry Hopper(Enoch)seem special in a unique way and sometimes out of the ordinary,without this being a disadvantage of them.Even the "ghost"Ryo Kase,presented in the movie as Hiroshi is very sympathetic and helpful,full of emotions.
The score was absolutely amazing,i got "enchanted" by every single song in the film.
Overall,this is a very sweet movie although dramatic.I felt like i was there with them,rather than watching just a film..I definitely recommend it :)
The Last Exorcism (2010)
IF you respect horror movies,DO NOT WATCH IT
My review will be small but yet totally comprehensive..
1)IF you don't like movies with an unstable camera, DO NOT WATCH IT..-this thing with the moving camera,gets really annoying at some point of the movie-
2)IF you want to watch a horror movie, DO NOT WATCH IT..-i would say that this movie did not have any single scary thing in it-
3)IF you are planning to see a "real"(like in a movie)exorcism, DO NOT WATCH IT..-although the movie is called "the last exorcism",we do not see any of it,except from the two childish tries of the priest(plus,the first one is fake!)-
4)IF you usually feel sympathy towards the leading actors or like to identify with them at some point, DO NOT WATCH IT..-everybody in this movie is antipathetic,seriously!!
5)IF you like the mysterious atmosphere of a horror movie,and then an explanation about all the odd things that happen throughout the film at the end, DO NOT WATCH IT..-nothing is explained,yes you can make guesses but that's only it!guesses!
6)IF you actually want to spend 2 hours of your life, WATCH IT..!!
Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003)
it is as i have never watched it...it didn't end up any where...
Τhe truth is that every single time i watch a movie i read a couple of the summaries here..I must confess that i was really excited about this film at the begging.. So,as i've seen the first 25 minutes,i was quite sure that this movie had many things to give in the next scenes..I waited patiently..But how wrong was i?Without trying to be absolute or anything i believe that this film is boring.
I must admit that there was a mysterious thing throughout the film that always kept me waiting and wanting for more.It didn't make sense in the end..So it's either i had not paid that much attention or it's actually misleading!The one thing i can say with certainty is that it finished just like it started,very suddenly..not leading anywhere..nothing has gone any further,neither the plot,nor the general idea..Everything stays the same.
It's still a nice film though,i liked the acting of both Colin Firth and Scarlett Johansson as well as the score.Maybe you'll just have to watch it yourself and discover its own "PEARL" :)
Silk (2007)
i'm not in the mood of narrating the summary..
OK...personally i think that this movie was a bit boring..i admit that there was a beautiful scenery , a well made music score ..but are those 2 factors the key to success? well i think not.. the acting from the leading actor was horrible..i don't know if it was him or his acting that made me feel an apathy towards the character that he was representing... another disadvantage was the countless dialogs in Japanese..there were no subtitles for us to read..so what are we supposed to do on those scenes? just listen and try to guess what are they saying?No... and what i think about the mysterious love of the leading actor and the Japanese girl? well..i have a question about that..how did those 2 people fell in love without having spoken to each other in the entire movie? overall ..i'm not very satisfied with this movie at all..there are loads of masterpieces out in the market...so why should we watch this movie?? anyway..i will not prevent anyone from watching this because i think that it's not right..i believe that everyone is capable of creating a different opinion...and after all that is the magic of every single movie..everyone perceives it in his/her own unique way !!
