Hesher

Un film destul de bun, actorii isi intra in rol destul de bine, iar faptul ca Hesher este personajul secundar e cu atat mai frumos, il scoate in evidenta pe cel mic care are un viitor stralucit. (Genul de personaj care-l prinde pe JGL, care se preteaza foarte misto pe roluri dubioase). Regia e excelenta si scenariul e interesant, construit in jurul unei drame mari, dar pe langa asta fiecare personaj traieste drama sa. Din cauza lipsei unei povesti clare, la inceput este putin plictisitor, dar daca treci de acest moment o sa-ti placa filmul.
Dupa vizionare, probabil iti pui o intrebare: cam cat esti de matur? Legat de acest aspect se leaga si actiunea filmului. Un film respectabil despre viata, cu toate necazurile si neimplinirile ei, dar si cu un strop de optimism in final.

Nota: 9/10

Hesher

T.J., a high school freshman, lost his mother two months before in a car accident: his father pops pills and sits on the couch; his grandmother holds things together, chatting and cooking. T.J. wants the car back from the salvage yard where the owner's son is a bully. By happenstance, Hesher, a foul-mouthed squatter, moves in with T.J's family. T.J. also meets Nicole, a grocery clerk near poverty who helps him once. Hesher involves T.J. in crime, the bully is omnipresent, mom's car is slipping away, dad has checked out, T.J. watches Nicole at work, and his grandma invites him to join her morning walk: the odds are long that T.J. can assemble a family to help him thrive

Vacancy & Vacancy 2

Ok, o sa vorbesc despre ambele in aceeasi postare, e lesne de inteles de ce. First of all, prima parte e mai interesanta ca prima, and second alt film care paleste cand vine vorba de horror, mai mult thriller. Prima parte e mai ok pentru ca te tine mai in suspans, gen, fata de a doua unde te cam astepti la unele chestii. Pe langa asta, actorii din prima parte sunt mai buni, numele lor sonore spun asta. Ideea e creepy in schimb, mai ales cand te gandesti ca unii oameni platesc pentru anumite chestii :)).
Pentru vremea lor, prima parte a fost chiar ok. :D

Nota: 6/10 (medie)

Vacancy
Vacancy 2: The First Cut

David and Amy Fox find themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere when their car breaks down. Luckily, they come across a motel with a TV to entertain them during their overnight stay. However, there's something very strange and familiar about the Grade-Z slasher movies that the motel broadcasts for its guests' enjoyment. They all appear to be filmed in the very same room they occupy! Realizing that they are trapped in their room with hidden cameras now aimed at them filming their every move, David and Amy desperately find a means of escape through locked doors, crawlspaces and underground tunnels before they too become the newest stars of the mystery filmmaker's next cult classic!

&

In 2004, the managers of the Meadow View Motel Gordon and Reece use room 6 to videotape the intimacy of the guests to sell porn movies. When the mysterious Mr. Smith checks in with a young woman, they witness the sadistic psychopath guest stabbing and killing his mate. The footage is a success and they decide to make other snuff movies with Smith. When Caleb, who is traveling from Chicago with his fiancée Jessica and his best friend Tanner, decides to rest in Meadow View, they have a nightmarish night and try to survive from the sick intention of the gang.

 

The Orphanage

Filmul se presupune a fi horror, insa e plin de psihologie si mister + cateva parti horror. Actrita principala (se tine bine doamna :))) duce cam toata actiunea filmului si in afara de prestatia ei nu prea e ceva de notat in rest. Initial, porneste bine, insa pe parcurs actiunea filmului se taraganeaza inutil, devenind plictisitor pana la final, care te scoate asa putin din inertia in care te pregateai sa intri. Tinand cont ca e un film strain, iar ideea e relativ noua, e un film acceptabil, bun. Daca astepti sa vezi sange sau sa te sperii la fiecare faza, ar trebui sa-ti alegi alt film.

Nota: 7/10

The Orphanage

Later on she sees a mysterious masked boy and realizes that Simón has also disappeared. Laura feels the presence of other people in the house and months later Laura invites a team of parapsychologists to try to unravel the mystery.

Interstellar

Interstellar este o capodopera a unui regizor excelent care pur si simplu iti plimba mintea prin tot felul de situatii mai putin prevazute. Din momentul in care incepe filmul, te vei simti captiv (la fel ca in film) ca intr-o capsula in care timp de aproximativ 3 ore vei fi nevoit sa deslusesti o serie de mistere ce te coplesesc din prima clipa.
Ideea filmului este unica pana in acest moment si are putin din toate: putere, emotie, plauzibila. Tocmai din aceasta cauza in timp ce esti atintit asupra actiunii trebuie sa ramai concentrat la toate momentele astfel incat sa nu ratezi nimic din ce-ar putea duce la neintelegerea filmului.
E un must see "obligatoriu", un film pe care ti-l recomanda un neiubitor de SF, dar in acest caz e un SF posibil si foarte usor de digerat, il incadrezi in alta parte imediat.

Nota: 10/10

Interstellar

The crew of the Endurance are required to think bigger and go further than any human in history as they embark on an interstellar voyage into the unknown. Coop, the pilot of the Endurance, must decide between seeing his children again and the future of the human race.

Playing for Keeps

Un film dragut, emotionant, de familie cu momente de drama si cateva scene comice. Atmosfera e una placuta, care te destinde, nota de pe IMDB mi se pare cam mica pentru acest film, in care Butler devine o mare vedeta din fotbalul trecut (nu ma asteptam sa-l vad intr-un asemenea rol). Finalul ilustreaza legamantul familial si in multe cazuri decizia pe care multi o au de luat in unele momente, cariera sau familia.

Nota: 9/10

Playing for Keeps

George is a former professional soccer star who's moved to Virginia to be close to his ex-wife and son. He's broke, jobless, without a plan, and a constant source of disappointment to his son. When he takes over as his son's soccer coach, he has a new connection to the lad. He also gets the attention of three of the players' moms as well as the glad hand of a wealthy dad. His ex-wife's getting married, he has a lead on a sportscasting job, and he finds new ways to disappoint his son. Is there any way he can sort things out?

Adore / Perfect Mothers

Povestea incepe cu mult timp in urma, cand cele 2 mame erau in acelasi loc si erau bune prietene si dureaza mult in viitor, vreme de 3 generatii. Actiunea ( :))) ) incepe in momentul in care cei doi baieti sunt dornici sa cunoasca cealalta mama, de aici se isca 2 povesti de dragoste cu sentimente sincere din partea celor 4. Idila e clar ca nu poate avea un final fericit mai ales in momentul in care unul din baieti pleaca si isi traieste o noua viata. Tema e una indrazneata si pare ca are o sansa sa se repete si in societatea actuala. Actiunea e lina, dar curge bine, scenele sunt filmate intr-un decor mirific din Australia (pontonul ala in mijlocul apei uhlala), doamnele arata exemplar, citindu-se fericirea pe chipul lor cand isi "traiesc" impreuna dragostea.
P.s. Ce frumos au combinat scenaristii si numele lor, toate 4 formate din 3 litere :)).

Nota: 8/10

Adore

Lil (Naomi Watts) and Roz (Robin Wright) are two lifelong friends, having grown up together as neighbors in an idyllic beach town. As adults, their sons have developed a friendship as strong as that which binds their mothers. One summer, all four are confronted by simmering emotions that have been mounting between them, and each find unexpected happiness in relationships that cross the bounds of convention.

Don Jon

Nu ma asteptam sa-mi placa filmul atat de mult, tinand cont ca e printre primele, daca nu chiar primul film al lui Joseph Gordon-Levitt. E bine gandit, bine regizat, bine construita actiunea si buna interpretarea, de acelasi JGL. E vorba de barbatul fatal in prim plan, care insira femei pe lista lui, dar nu e multumit de niciuna si se multumeste cu propria placere. Asta pana cand intalneste "femeia vietii lui", dar nu tine mult pentru ca-i descopera defectele in timp ce intalneste o alta femeie (ca tot ziceam ca insira femei pe lista :))). In final descopera cu adevarat ceea ce ii lipsea si e multumit. Partea amuzanta nu lipseste, tatal lui Jon fiind un haos comic. :))
Ceea ce mi-a placut cel mai mult in acest film este rapiditatea cu care se desfasoara actiunea, in stilul caracteristic, repetitiv. O idee noua aplicata bine.

Nota: 9/10

Don Jon

Jon Martello objectifies everything in his life: his apartment, his car, his family, his church, and, of course, women. His buddies even call him Don Jon because of his ability to pull "10s" every weekend without fail. Yet even the finest flings don't compare to the transcendent bliss he achieves alone in front of the computer watching pornography. Dissatisfied, he embarks on a journey to find a more gratifying sex life, but ends up learning larger lessons of life and love through relationships with two very different women.

Mai interesant posterul asta. 

Safe Haven

Un film dragut de dragoste in combinatie cu drama unei domnisoare simpatice (fara sa stii de antecedentele ei :>). Scenele sunt dragute, filmate in locuri faine, misterul planeaza destul timp in actiune, iar personajele se potrivesc destul de bine, au o chimie acolo :D. Finalul poate fi neasteptat sau nu, insa se termina intr-o nota pozitiva. E genul de film pe care-l poti vedea cu o persoana draga intr-o zi ploioasa, mohorata ca sa-ti revina zambetul.
Film dragut, relaxant !

Nota: 9/10

Safe Haven

A young woman with a mysterious past lands in Southport, North Carolina where her bond with a widower forces her to confront the dark secret that haunts her.

Flight

Genul de film care se axeaza pe principalele vicii ale omului, drogurile si bautura, dar si consecintele lor asupra unei persoane care n-ar trebui sa le aiba, un pilot de avion. In primul rand, initial am crezut ca filmul se bazeaza pe fapte reale, Denzel intrand in rol foarte bine, chiar daca nu e unul din cele mai bune personaje, reuseste sa te tina captiv timp de 2 ore.
Mi-a placut mult acest film, mai mult drama decat actiune, deoarece ofera o lectie importanta multora, inclusiv celor ce se suie bauti la volan, dar ei nu sfarsesc prin a fi eroi ci invers. De asemenea finalul iti ofera realitatea din ziua de azi, ca o minciuna nu ajunge tot timpul la capat.

Nota: 10/10

Flight

Whip Whitaker is a commuter airline pilot. While on a flight from Orlando to Atlanta something goes wrong and the plane starts to fly erratically. With little choice Whip crashes the plane and saves almost all on board. When he wakes up in the hospital, his friend from the airline union introduces him to a lawyer who tells him there's a chance he could face criminal charges because his blood test reveals that he is intoxicated with alcohol and cocaine. He denies being impaired, so while an investigation is underway, he is told to keep his act together. However, letting go of his addiction is not as easy as it seems...

Piranha 3DD

Avand in vede ca prima parte e o prostie, s-au gandit sa faca si o a doua parte in acelasi stil, o mai mare porcarie :)). Pe acelasi stil, fete despuiate, distractie in toi si apoi apar pestisorii. Ideea e proasta, jocul actorilor e la fel, efectele vizuale slabe si ele ... per total bani irositi degeaba. Aparitia lui David Hasselhoff e degeaba, pus intr-un rol tampit. In concluzie, sper sa nu apara 3DDD :)).

Nota: 4/10
