Pasadena (2001)
I want more!
I have just finished watching Pasadena and I definitely want more. The haunting narrative and creepy atmosphere keep you on the edge of your seat. The story begins with a teenager recalling the events that will lead up to her rich family's demise. As the story slowly unfolds and you see the main character, Lily, coming to terms with the fact her family is not what it appears, one is left wondering what could possibly be in store for Lily next. I am curious how the writers will give us enough information to sustain our interest, but keep enough mystery to have us wondering what is to come. If the first episode gives us any indication as to what's to come then the series will continue to be solid and intense. I for one will be setting up my VCR to catch the next episode and I would recommend you do the same.
Killing Priscilla (2000)
I appreciate Eye of the Beholder so much more now!
After viewing this documentary I like Eye of the Beholder so much better. Although I am not a film student or film critic I thought the process that went into making EYE was interesting. I thought it's director had an interesting approach and a clever wit to how he handled his problems. Even when he is a bit pessimistic about his film's future he still plugs on with grace and charm. I bet if more hollywood types were like him then better films would be made.
The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)
This movie was just plain awful!
All I know is that I could hardly sit through the whole film. I thought it moved slow and was just quite boring to tell you the truth. I didn't particularly care for any of the characters because if they weren't just plain mean, they were irritating! Don't get me wrong I usually like a good mystery, thriller but nothing about this movie was mysterious or thrilling. I would recommend passing on this movie if you were thinking of renting it. It would be a waste of money and time!
