Avatar: Best Picture

The Golden Globes have come and gone, and despite a few rightful wins (Cristoph Waltz), the Hollywood Foreign Press Association must've been hairsexed by the Na'vi, because Avatar had quite the sweep tonight.

James Cameron won best director, Avatar won Best Motion Picture - Drama. And Ahnuld mentioned some film called 'Abuhduh'.

I can't imagine myself in former Cameron spouse Katherine Bigelow's position though, must've hurt a bit, but not too much. I haven't really seen the Hurt Locker, but I think it's much more deserving than Avatar. So maybe Cameron can win the director award (I mean, the movie was a giant risk for the 10+ years it was in production), but I can just imagine something else winning Best Film. Just not Avatar.

In a nutshell: The film definitely creeped me out, but not in that atypical paranormal sense (because it's obviously a Western thriller). Superior acting and technical polish will especially suck you in, though I never really got that ending (it's not much of a bad thing, though).

Ah, the Coens. I've heard of them. And this is pretty much the first film (made by them) that I've ever seen, but I feel pretty compelled to hunt for their work. Why? It's pretty obvious, no? But I'll elaborate anyway.

It all starts with a man named Llewelyn (Josh Brolin) who goes to a part of the desert just to see the aftermath of a drug deal gone awry. He looks at the crime scene, and then sees the suitcase of a dead Mexican dude that contains 2 million dollars. He would bring the satchel home and well, pretty much set to motion a series of cat and mouse races for his life. A sheriff (Tommy Lee Jones) would also try to help him, but this psycopathic killer (Javier Bardem) is unlike any other, though he kind of knows what his next move is in a sort of philosophical manner.

OK, vague description, but that's because I wouldn't want to spoil anything about this movie. All I can say about it though, is that it definitely, successfully maintains that level of fear throughout the entire movie, even in those parts where you don't have to, because you just feel that Anton (Bardem's character) would sort of just appear and shoot everybody. And those times are just so unpredictable to boot! Plus, the cat and mouse chases between Llewelyn and Anton equally thrilling and scary, so much that it will put you at the edge of your seat (luckily I was on a bed, so yeah, that screams BOOTLEG! PIRATED! DVD!). And my mother, who would normally sleep in the middle of a movie, was definitely awake here. So I'm not exactly alone.

Speaking of DVD, it just seems a fact that genres like these, whether the movie in general is bad or not, is definitely more effective in the theater. So if you can just imagine what I felt during the screening of this movie in the comfort of home, who knows what would happen if you (and I for that matter) were to view this in a theater!

Joel and Ethan Coen definitely make a terrific job in the screenplay and direction, because they execute the near-impossible with perfect ease, and makes you feel like a character even. I can't pick out the words as to how I can tell this to you in detail, but yesterday's (March 1, 08) Inquirer review pretty much said it for me.

And as a bonus, you get to witness Javier Bardem at all his sinister glory, as he kind of almost steals Brolin's presence on-screen. But in case you're wondering whether he is the very loud type of cackling villain you'd stereotypically expect, he's not. He didn't really need to act all over-the-top and all that, and was actually the contrary. Ahh, silence is indeed more evil... and scarier than the screen villains I've seen for a decade.

Oh but good things come to an end, and its ending is pretty strange in the sense that it will make you think to the point that you have to re-view it a second time. But then again, it was already 1 in the morning when we finished. And I was hella tired. But I couldn't sleep though, Anton Chigurh was still etched in my mind, looking for me, wanting to kill me. (-shiver-)

You should definitely watch this gem, though. No, really. Watch THIS. It is indeed the definitive movie of the year of 2007 for me.

Rating: 9.8/10 (My 2007 movie of the year has finally arrived.)

Golden Globe/Oscar nominee review #4: Atonement

ATONEMENT

Directed by: Joe Wright

Released by: Universal Pictures, Working Title Productions, Focus Features

Noms: Oscar Best Supporting Actress, Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Costume Design, Best Original Score, Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, Globes Best Picture - Drama, Best Actress - Drama, Best Actor - Drama, Best Supporting Actress - Drama, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Original Score

Wins: Globes Best Picture - Drama, Best Original Score

Tomatometer: 82%

In a nutshell: It's a successful adaptation of Ian McEwan's widely lauded tale of war, lies and romance in World War II. The actors, especially newcomer Saoirse Ronan, give the film good performances that match the art direction and wondrous cinematography. And I fell in love with the score, by the way.

Back from re-creating Jane Austen's arguably most famous novel Pride and Prejudice does Joe Wright adapt yet another one, this time from Ian McEwan's acclaimed Atonement. It has become one of the books that belong to the "best books of all-time" lists of many, so it's no surprise that expectations are pretty high.

The director faces the challenge, and creates a piece of art that not only gets the scattered sequencing right, but also lets the viewer feel the guilt that rages inside Briony Tallis, the main character. OK, so why is she guilty again?

It all starts with a letter. Robbie (James McAvoy) writes this as an apology for his bad behavior towards Cecilia (a VERY thin Keira Knightley) in an earlier scene and gets Briony to give it to her. But when he realizes that he has put the wrong letter in the envelope, his eyes widen in outrage and Briony reads it. She then misinterprets him for a maniac and when her cousins get lost, hell breaks loose and Robbie is wrongly accused of a crime he definitely did not commit. World War II rages, the family breaks and mistrusts the maid and her son, Cecilia runs away, and Briony finally grows up. Knowing the damage she has done to the lives of everyone concerned, she is determined to atone for that particular deed. The rest, as they say, is history.So much for that summary (which I re-wrote 3 times). Anyway, the first thing I've fallen in love with is the score which gives the film a new layer and light. Each score that plays fit the character or scene, and it just makes everything so much better. (THANK YOU, DARIO MARINELLI.) I also love newcomer Saoirse Ronan's performance as the 8 year old Briony Tallis. Yeah, the character is played by 3 different actors to represent different age groups, but Ronan's part weighs a lot heavier than the others and is therefore commendably believable.

As for the other actors, they also portray each others' characters satisfactorily. The fury that spews out of Robbie when he sees the 18-year old Briony again, the disappointment that Cecilia feels when she learns of Robbie's arrest- these are just some of the best moments you'll see and feel with the characters.
Plus, even with the fact that my eyes are more hypnotized with Sweeney Todd's art direction, the art direction you'll see in this film is nonetheless wonderful, and the cinematography is equally wonderful. And I'm not just saying that for the fact that the film's nominated for those aspects.
As a whole, Atonement is adapted with much success and the Dario Marianelli's score is just torrent-worthily hypnotizing. If you want something worthwhile, and not to mention wonderfully dark, watch this. Who knows? You might not even dare lie again.

Golden Globe/Oscar nominee review #3: Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

SWEENEY TODD: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Directed by: Tim Burton

Released by: Dreamworks SKG, Warner Bros. Pictures

Noms: Oscar Best Actor, Best Art Direction, Best Costume Design (parang puro Tim Burton film may Costume Design or Make-up nom... LOL), Globes Best Picture - Musical or Comedy, Best Actress - Musical or Comedy, Best Actor - Musical or Comedy, Best Director

Wins: Globes Best Picture- Musical or Comedy, Best Actor - Musical or Comedy

Tomatometer: 87%

In a nutshell: It's a magnificently vicious gorefest that's perfectly directed, greatly acted, surprisingly well-sung and just wonderfully made! One gripe though, the last 4 minutes lack a bit of sentimental punch!

OK, so maybe I shouldn't have put the damn subtitle on the title (even the opening credits don't), but hey, there has already been a few movies based on the same musical that also have the subtitle as its title. OK, I'm babbling now, and I'm not sure this introduction is even decent anymore, so moving on...

Benjamin Barker (Johnny Depp) is a man who has a beautiful wife and a daughter named Johanna. But because Judge Turpin (Alan Rickman) wants his wife, he wrongly dumps Barker to Australia for 15 years in exile. But now that his sentence is over, he returns to London and changes his name to Sweeney Todd. He meets his former landlady Mrs. Lovett who owns a shop which sells "the worst pies in London". Now he knows that his wife is presumably dead from poison and Judge Turpin has taken Johanna into his care (and plans to marry her), he wants to take revenge, not only to him, but also to the other people who have helped ruin his life.In Tim Burton's sixth collaboration with Johnny Depp and fifth collaboration with his domestic partner Helena Bonham Corter (not including their other two "collaborations") and Depp and Carter's second (?) movie together, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street offers a powerhouse cast lead by Burton's two favorites (who are rightfully acclaimed for their performances). Right from Anthony, Toby to Beadle Bamford, they are all noteworthy and distinct and that's what I like about it.

Actually, in the first half of the movie, I asked myself why the hell it's even rated R, especially because there wasn't anything direly wrong about that first half anyway. I even thought that the movie should've been rated PG-13 or just PG! I mean, the only swear word you'll ever find is...
Sorry... but you get the point. (P. U.! I can even smell the picture!)

But in the second half, when Sweeney gets his first chance at murder, you get sort of a shock because you don't actually expect that much blood to come out of someone's throat (I'm talking too much already) and that image is still shocking everytime he does it. Still, even in its most gruesome glory, the art direction of the film still shines and rather eye-popping. (Damn, the poop is still showing in the damn blog editor!)
Even though Burton perfectly directs everyone and the risk he took with the actors have paid off (because they don't really sing), but even with the powerhouse performance of the whole cast, I think the last four minutes of the movie (I won't elaborate about that, of course) needs a bit more of a revelationary (if there was such a word) punch! I think it needed to be more dramatic, but then again, I'm not saying that the ending didn't convey its message wrongly.But even with that, this movie is my new favorite musical, and if Juno didn't exist, and if that ending had more punch, the movie would've earned my 2007 Unanimously Best Picture award and a perfect 10 respectively. I love the way it was helmed, the vision of Burton which blends in well with the story and the magnificent music of Sondheim, and everything. It's well-made and once again, I just love it.

Rating: 9.7/10 (It's almost perfect, but one thing just keeps the movie from hitting it. It's a visceral cinematic treat you should watch, especially in the theater if you can.)

Golden Globe/Oscar nominee review #2: Elizabeth: The Golden Age

ELIZABETH: The Golden Age

Directed by: Shekhar Kapur

Released by: Universal Pictures, Working Title

Noms: Oscar Best Actress, Costume Design; Globes Best Actress

Wins: N/A

Tomatometer: 34% (Loser.)

In a nutshell: Spell it with me! B-O-R-I-N-G. BORING! But what saves the history lesson from disaster is its lead star Cate Blanchett who gives a great performance, as usual.

Actually, even within the facade of the English-Spanish war, there is a romance story going on, and not only any ordinary affair. This Spanish pirate named Sir Walter Raleigh (Clive Owen) goes to our dear queen Elizabeth I (Cate Blanchett) when she tries to look for suitors so that she can produce an heir. The pressure of being queen sets in and because Raleigh is a Spaniard, she cannot love nor marry him. Of course, there is also the aforementioned war King Philip has waged against her for being Protestant that she has to take care of. So yeah, that's quite a lot of work.

Though the same director from the first movie (yeah, this one's a sequel) which got leading star Blanchett her first (of many) Best Actress Oscar, this one just doesn't match up. Why? Because for one, it's pretty boring and disappointing probably for those expecting more from this. But hey, the film's quite goodly shot, but Blanchett just looks like... a female drag queen. Yeah, there are the triangular love twists and such, but... they're not just very effectively presented as I would have wanted to expect... especially on a Cate Blanchett film!

Still, the fact that Cate reprises her role here (and still does it with fiery passion!) is the film's very saving grace as she effectively knows how to carry a sinking history movie such as this. Heck, it's no surprise that she's being nominated again!

But as for the movie itself... well, maybe you can stick to watching the first one (and I'm just saying sheerly for the fact that the first movie's 79% on RT). It's a pretty boring history lesson (as I have said for like, what? 3 or 4 times already?) and something I almost slept in! That is, if it weren't for Cate!

Rating: 6/10 (Zzzzz...., this one was supposed to be a 5! I like Cate's performance, though, so what the hell.)

Golden Globe/Oscar nominee review #1: Juno

You know what? Instead of a post full of movie reviews, why not divide them one by one into bite sized bits? And better way to start the series off with...

JUNO
Directed by: Jason Reitman (Thank You For Smoking)

Released by: Fox Searchlight Pictures

Noms: Oscar for Best Actress, Best Direction, Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay; Globes for Best Picture - Musical or Comedy, Best Actress, Best Screenplay

Wins: N/A

Tomatometer: 92%

In a nutshell: It's a whip-smart, funny and affecting take on teen pregnancy. An easily recommendable comedy that belongs in a class of its own.

I guess there's no such thing a sophomore curse.

Though I have yet to watch Jason Reitman's acclaimed debut film Thank You For Smoking, his top-notch direction in his newest film Juno definitely deserves its due. Then again, first-time screenwriter and ex-stripper Diablo Cody is where the real credit is due as she provides us a whip-smart, funny and affectingly compelling take on teen pregnancy.

I actually didn't like Little Miss Sunshine much when I watched it, and though this movie is of the same vein, the movie delivers more laughs and character development. Plus, it makes you feel good in a weird way.

So how does it go? Well, Juno gets a bit "bored" and has a one night's stand with her best friend Paulie Bleeker after booze. And judging from the poster, someone didn't buy any condoms. But now that the damage has been done, she has to grow up a little bit faster and instead of abortion, she finds adoptive parents at the Pennysaver and sees the perfect couple... at least on the surface. No, they're fortunately not the type of stepparents that are generically like the devil, but they are also real people, who are good but are married too long to the extent that the love isn't present anymore. But hey, Juno likes them (and doesn't know about this until the latter part of the movie) and she consents to making them the baby's parents. She goes through the paces of pregnancy, all the while confronting the genetic father, her own parents and the revelations that come. Thankfully, everything that happens are expertly balanced and superbly acted.

I can't imagine anybody else perfect for the roles of every person in this solid cast. Ellen Page gives you a show of what she can do and nails her role perfectly and delivers her lines naturally while for the first time does Michael Cera, star of Knocked Up and Superbad, doesn't say a swear word for the first time! And I also love the fact that, though it is predictable that the parents will express shock and a bit of anger, they definitely understand, not to mention respect, their daughter's decisions, thus making a few other cliches I can spot in the heart-to-heart talk (with Juno and her dad talking about loving forever and stuff), quite affecting and so... un-cliche.

You know what? The movie would also be the thinking man's comedy because they utter comedic lines naturally. And if you don't pay attention, you won't definitely laugh. OK, if you want to test your attention span, try finding the line that says, "the pink plus sign is so unholy!". If you don't find this one, then... good luck appreciating it.

Adding even more to the movie is its perfect soundtrack. Most of them are indies, some of them are obscure, but they're fitting for the mood and atmosphere of the scenes. I mean, the somewhat moody cover of The Carpenter's Superstar is already stuck in my head. Sometimes, I would catch myself singing the thing!

This movie is definitely relevant for many audiences and it's quite easy to recommend. It's genuinely funny, intelligent and wonderful. One minor quirk, though, she kinda dresses funny. But you know what? I think I'll be watching it again now...

Rating: 9.2/10 (Superb, yet simple)

Next in the series: Elizabeth: The Golden Age (Thursday), Sweeney Todd (Friday)
