The Ghost Writer

Filmul in esenta lui este fain , dar parca actiunea se desfasoara prea sec , peisajul ala trist parca dezvolta ideea asta , actorii sunt ok, unii din ei destul de cunoscuti. Filmul are un fir lent care din a doua jumatate se dezvolta incredibil de rapid si de complicat , valtoarea actiunii incurcandu-te in cazul in care nu esti foarte atent la ceea ce se desfasoara, e destul de imbarligata treaba fiind multe persoane implicate. Finalul e unul la care sincer nu ma asteptam si nu referitor la ce gaseste el in 'carte' ci chiar ultima scena , n-am mai vazut rostul pentru care s-a intamplat. Oricum , e un film tipic genului Polanski

Nota: 9/10

The Ghost Writer - traducere foarte tampita pe IMDB

An unremarkable ghost-writer has landed a lucrative contract to redact the memoirs of Adam Lang, the former UK Prime Minister. After dominating British politics for years, Lang has retired with his wife to the USA. He lives on an island, in luxurious, isolated premises complete with a security detail and a secretarial staff. Soon, Adam Lang gets embroiled in a major scandal with international ramifications that reveals how far he was ready to go in order to nurture UK's "special relationship" with the USA. But before this controversy has started, before even he has closed the deal with the publisher, the ghost-writer gets unmistakable signs that the turgid draft he is tasked to put into shape inexplicably constitutes highly sensitive material.

The Fighter

Bun si filmul asta , daca ar fi sa-l compar cu Warrior , e putin mai inferior , insa ideea se mentine pe acelasi fir , un om cu povestea sa , aici urmas al fratelui care vrea sa aiba si el o cariera in sport si incearca din toate puterile , fiind inspirat dupa un caz real ii sporeste ratingul :D L-am cotat mai putin bun decat Warrior pentru ca aici se mentine prea mult frecusul familiei , ba ala , ba celalalt , ba fratele si tot asa (vedeti voi in film).

Nota: 9/10

The Fighter

The Fighter is a drama about boxer "Irish" Micky Ward's unlikely road to the world light welterweight title. His Rocky-like rise was shepherded by half-brother Dicky, a boxer-turned-trainer on the verge of being KO'd by drugs and crime.

Warrior

Filmul asta e o poveste de viata , una emotionanta. Ce mi-a placut cel mai mult e cum se dezvolta povestea , nu e genul de film doar cu bataie , pornesti o bataie , castigi 2-3 participi si castigi. Totul are la baza un storyline bine pus la punct , actorii foarte buni , chit ca mie nu mi-a placut Nick Nolte mai deloc niciodata. Ma asteptam la un final ca asta , dar deznodamantul luptei avea mai multe idei in capul meu , deci il face placut la urmarit :D.

Warrior

Two brothers face the fight of a lifetime - and the wreckage of their broken family - within the brutal, high-stakes world of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighting in Lionsgate's action/drama, WARRIOR. An ex-Marine haunted by a tragic past, Tommy Riordan returns to his hometown of Pittsburgh and enlists his father, a recovered alcoholic and his former coach, to train him for an MMA tournament awarding the biggest purse in the history of the sport. As Tommy blazes a violent path towards the title prize, his brother, Brendan, a former MMA fighter unable to make ends meet as a public school teacher, returns to the amateur ring to provide for his family. Even though years have passed, recriminations and past betrayals keep Brendan bitterly estranged from both Tommy and his father. But when Brendan's unlikely rise as an underdog sets him on a collision course with Tommy, the two brothers must finally confront the forces that tore them apart...

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Genul de film care pe mine ma impresioneaza , genul de film care ar trebui sa faca reclama unei tari , in cazul respectiv India , o tara plina de mister , plina de locuri frumoase(orice tara are asa ceva) , plina de povesti. E genul de film ce se aseamana cu Cairo Time , unde vin un grup de batrani , fiecare cu povestea lui si ajung sa lege prietenii frumoase si care schimba anumiti factori ai povestirii. Sonny , actorul indian e pur si simplu genial :)))) are o energie debordanta si se potriveste de minune rapiditatea lui cu umorul englezesc al turistilor.  Pustietatea locului creat de el va ajunge in final sa fie o oaza de fericire ptr cei ce vor trece pragul locului :D. Alt lucru pe care l-am admirat in film a fost faptul ca n-au exagerat cu muzica lor "populara" ci au folosit un soundtrack potrivit. Bill Nighy joaca si el in film , el fiind unul din actorii mei preferati, scena din final de pe scuter facand toti banii :))

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

British retirees travel to India to take up residence in what they believe is a newly restored hotel. Less luxurious than its advertisements, the Marigold Hotel nevertheless slowly begins to charm in unexpected ways.

The Fall

Interesant filmul , interesanta metoda de a'l povesti ... actiunea imaginata de cei doi amplifica frumusetea filmului , ceea ce e interesant este faptul ca Alexandria , acea fata mica este romanca. Am citit cate ceva despre dansa si e destul de impresionanta povestea ei de cand era mica , dar si cum a ajuns in film si zic ca joaca destul de bine pentru varsta ei si ptr un copil roman care vorbeste engleza la o varsta frageda. Personajele sunt simpatice si asimilate cu persoane din cadrul spitalului , este o corelare draguta intre poveste si real

Nota: 9/10

The Fall

In a hospital on the outskirts of 1920s Los Angeles, an injured stuntman begins to tell a fellow patient, a little girl with a broken arm, a fantastic story of five mythical heroes. Thanks to his fractured state of mind and her vivid imagination, the line between fiction and reality blurs as the tale advances.

The Adjustment Bureau

Fain filmul si faina ideea , actorii sunt placuti , cel mai mult mi-a placut negrul , Harry :D. Filmul are si actiune , si drama , putin romantism ... e bun. De asemenea frumos si cum isi da el seama ca destinul ti'l controlezi in anumite masuri singur. Partea care strica putin din energia filmului e urmatoarea: faptul ca actorul principal , Matt Damon(David) reuseste si el lucrurile pe care cei cu palarii le fac , ceea ce nu este explicat pe parcurs , dar si zambetul domnisoarei in final(demential accentul) cand isi da seama care'i treaba cu acel 'plan' ... dar de unde si de unde cand ea e luata ca din oala?!. In rest e bine gandit , aceste 2 chestii scapand poate

Nota: 9/10

The Adjustment Bureau

Do we control our destiny, or do unseen forces manipulate us? A man glimpses the future Fate has planned for him and realizes he wants something else. To get it, he must pursue across, under and through the streets of modern-day New York the only woman he's ever loved. On the brink of winning a seat in the U.S. Senate, ambitious politician David Norris (Damon) meets beautiful contemporary ballet dancer Elise Sellas (Emily Blunt) - a woman like none he's ever known. But just as he realizes he's falling for her, mysterious men conspire to keep the two apart. David learns he is up against the agents of Fate itself - the men of The Adjustment Bureau - who will do everything in their considerable power to prevent David and Elise from being together. In the face of overwhelming odds, he must either let her go and accept a predetermined path...or risk everything to defy Fate and be with her.

                        Mi se pare mie sau cei doi din poster nu prea seamana cu actorii principali ? :))

Taxi Driver

O poveste faina cu un Robert de Niro leit ca acum , in anul 2012 , acelasi stil de a juca, acelasi " sictir " apare ... e un actor genial , merita toate filmele in care a jucat , povestea e mai buna in prima parte , in a doua jumatate el isi schimba cumva gandirea si ia niste decizii surprinzatoare... finalul de asemenea e unul destul de interesant :D Freza de punker face toti banii! :))

Nota: 9/10

Taxi Driver

Travis Bickle is an ex-Marine and Vietnam War veteran living in New York City. As he suffers from insomnia, he spends his time working as a taxi driver at night, watching porn movies at seedy cinemas during the day, or thinking about how the world, New York in particular, has deteriorated into a cesspool. He's a loner who has strong opinions about what is right and wrong with mankind. For him, the one bright spot in New York humanity is Betsy, a worker on the presidential nomination campaign of Senator Charles Palantine. He becomes obsessed with her. After an incident with her, he believes he has to do whatever he needs to to make the world a better place in his opinion. One of his priorities is to be the savior for Iris, a twelve-year-old runaway and prostitute who he believes wants out of the profession and under the thumb of her pimp and lover Matthew.

The Hit List

Un film cu un buget foarte redus dupa cum arata , multe greseli la filmari , din neatentie sau din lipsa de venituri , probabil i-au dat toti banii actorului principal :)) ... Ideea e interesanta, e ok si pusa in aplicare cat de cat , dar din cauza a multor clisee filmul lasa de dorit... actiunea incepe sa fie previzibila , finalul la fel... modul de a filma filmul e iarasi slab ..

Nota: 7/10

The Hit List

In Spokane, an elite government killer goes rogue on the day that engineer Allen Campbell loses a promotion and finds his best man with his wife. Allen goes drinking that night and chats up a stranger who turns out to be Jonas, the hit man. Jonas asks Allen to give him a list of five people he'd like to see dead, so a drunk Allen lists his boss, the guy who got the promotion, a nasty bookie, the best man, and his wife. By the next morning, the boss is dead, and Allen realizes Jonas is for real. Can he stop Jonas?

Take Shelter

Un film care in privinta mea are un buget foarte low si e facut doar ca sa fie trecut la cv'ul regizorului , povestea e adevarat , trista si poate ca asta a influentat mult ideea spectatorului dupa vizionarea filmului , dar pe mine nu m-a impresionat , finalul e acelasi cu cel pe care mi l-am imaginat eu , vine intr-adevar acea "ploaie" si totul revine la normal. Intrebarea pe care mi-am pus-o e urmatoarea: daca fetita nu avea problema de vorbire , mai avea acelasi impact? Pentru cel ce vizioneaza , impactul e mai mare cand un copil are probleme , fata de un adult , mai ales cand ambii sunt in film

Nota: 7/10

Take Shelter

Curtis, a father and husband, is starting to experience bad dreams and hallucinations. Assuming mental illness, he seeks medical help and counseling. However, fearing the worst, he starts building an elaborate and expensive storm shelter in their backyard. This storm shelter threatens to tear apart his family, threatens his sanity and his standing in the community, but he builds it to save his family's life.

                              Posterul cu norii pare mai reprezentativ pentru film decat acesta cu pasari.

Taking Lives

Un film fain , dar care trebuie urmarit cu multa atentie de la inceput incat sa-i prinzi ideea , finalul nu se poate spune ca e previzibil , dar poti banui care-i miscarea in continuare... Anjelina are un rol fain, pe langa faptul ca arata foarte bine apare si intr-o scena de sex , de altfel si singura din tot filmul care e buna de tot, pasionala si toate alea!

 Nota: 9/10

Taking Lives
