Lacrimi de iubire (2005)
Bad, followed by awful, and finally pathetic
As a Romanian living abroad, I don't often get to see Romanian films, apart from the old pre-communism films they show on SBS or some comedies with actors of old, occasionally I come across a Romanian film on Mininova, however they are few and far apart. Imagine my surprise when I came across this title, which promised so much, but delivered so little.
From the very beginning I was wondering what is going on here? The plot wasn't evident until about half way, and the end was very predictable. It was only after watching the film that I found out it was a movie version of soap opera. It seems to be missing something from the beginning, which obviously requires the viewer to have watched the soap opera to have an idea of who is who and what is going on. Imagine Days of our lives the movie?
With better script writing, some better introductions of who the characters are and some better acting, this film could have been much better than it was What ruined it for me was the lack luster acting by most characters, all the actors were pretty, and if it wasn't for that, I would have stopped watching it after the first 15 minutes. After seeing so many other romantic movies made by Hollywood or Bollywood, this film is "B" grade at best.
I gave it 2 out of ten because of the pretty actors and the fact I got to see some of the Romanian country side. If you have nothing better to do, and the paint is already dry on your walls, then I recommend watching this movie.

The Incredible Hulk (2008)
The BEST ever version of the HULK
Growing up I used to watch the Hulk on TV as a series. I think through the years there were a few attempts at the movie, and then in 2003 Erica Bana starred as the hulk. At the time it was a great movie, and the action and graphics were great.
Today I had two and a half hours to kill and I happened to be in a shopping complex that had a cinema. The only films to be starting during this time was The Incredible Hulk and some chick flick. I chose the Incredible Hulk, not expecting much, with mixed memories of Spider man 3, I wasn't really expecting anything great. Gee was I in shock once the action started. I cant recall seeing another comic book come film ever being so good.
The graphics are awesome and are all believable, the action/fight scenes are unbelievably great, and awesome, and the film doesn't detract from the action. There is a great storyline which is followed, all blended in with sub plots and a twist. Ed Norton and Liv Tyler deliver excellent performances.
Make sure you go to the toilet before you watch this film, as you don't want to miss any of the action.
This is a great film if you want jaw dropping action and fight scenes. There are some funny moments thrown in and at the end, you are left wanting more....you don't realize that two hours have just passed.
If you want a feel good action movie, then this is for you.
