Date Movie (2006)
2/10
So bad?
26 May 2006
I enjoyed watching Scary Movie back in the days and thought that this one would be a similar emotion. Well, it only lasted 18 minutes before it was terminated by the mad knocking on my STOP remote control button!!! Not good, seriously. And what was that about beating the **** out of the drunk guy and being all happy about it? Yacks. The story made a weak reference to a bunch of funny movies and wasn't enjoyable at all. My big fat Greek wedding was such a nice, funny movie but the reference here was not good.

If you enjoy a silly (really silly) movie go for it, I am sure some people will find it funny.

Cheers!

Casanova (2005)
5/10
This is a comedy, not a biography attempt
24 January 2006
I just saw Casanova. I read most of the comments here before I went to see it and honestly I was on my way to give up on it. I had fun. I laughed and enjoyed it. One thing though: this is a comedy. If you are in search or a historical, accurate description of the famous Casanova then you are on the wrong path. Some people here said Jeremy Irons was... over-acting? Come on.. give him the merit he deserves as a great actor that he is. He was enjoying his role. I could almost see him laughing on the set after the director shouts out Cut! The only dramatic moment towards the end of the movie seemed to be there just to reinforce the comedy picture after it. Sienna Miller seemed a bit uneasy to me at the beginning with the speech in the University.. I loved the costumes and the settings. It definitely makes you think of buying a ticket to Venice. (Again!) Sensual? 10% Love story? 40% Comedy? The rest. So I say, if you are in the mood for something light, give it a chance and laugh :) And let us agree to disagree, shall we?
