Quite possibly the greatest love story ever captured on film.

Watched this movie this weekend and it really struck a nerve. Perhaps the parallels between my late grandfather and his four own children were too strong, but I ended up bawling at the end. Sometimes we get wrapped up in our own lives and forget about what'll always matter in the end: family.
Anyhow the supporting cast is okay, but DeNiro really steals the show by doing a great job as the father coming into self-realization and making amends. Definitely a great movie to watch with the kids or parents. - Karen on February 19, 2010 at 3:40pmKaren liked Let the Right One In on netflix.com

Reason why IMAXes were invented.

The ultimate scifi flick. I remember knowing nothing about the movie when I watched and being blown away 30 seconds in when Trinity does her hop, skip, and jump across buildings. What a ride.
And to all the haters of the sequels. Reloaded wasn't bad, just different. Us fans wanted more of the same, but there clearly was a different theme going. "What is reality" was the theme of the first versus "Free will". But i'll admit Revolutions was poorly shot. The theme itself was good (hey i'm a techie, i understand ctrl alt delete) but the overuse of CGI killed it. - Karen on January 21, 2010 at 6:18pmKaren liked The Bourne Ultimatum from Guy Newman's movies

Visual feast. Watch it only if you like fantasy though.

What a great action and special effects flick. Remember that scene where the bad terminator oozes through the jail cell bars in that silvery goo to get out? I thought that was so badass, so futuristic. LIttle did I know what the movie industry had in store for us.

Had moments of awesomeness: "I LOVE my babies. Why would I want to PUSH them away from me?" But yeah some moments too melodramatic, too soundtrack-intensive. Still enjoyed it though and the idea of family.

Sexy. Raspy. Voice.
- Karen on December 9, 2009 at 3:17pmKaren liked and commented on The Counterfeiters on netflix.com
True story of a con man forced into survival mode. Great overall performance--solid without overacting.
- Karen on December 9, 2009 at 3:12pmKaren liked and commented on Slumdog Millionaire on imdb.com
Great storytelling crossed with powerful imagery. I preferred the storyline between the two brothers over the love story.
- Karen on December 9, 2009 at 12:17pmKaren liked and commented on Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back on Glue stream
The verbal diarrhea that spews out of Jay...I wince but I know I love it.
- Karen on December 8, 2009 at 11:30amKaren liked and commented on 12 Monkeys on netflix.com
Twisted plot happening between parallel planes, executed beautifully through Terry Gilliam. Ending could've been better though...
- Karen on December 3, 2009 at 9:49amKaren liked and commented on Face/Off from Subramanian's movies
Having grown up watching Hong Kong movies directed by John Woo I remember thinking whoa he keeps using the same theatric elements: releasing doves, multi-person gun stand off, and covering each other faces. Still good though for what it is: a fun action movie.

Everybody wants to be Mr. Black.
- Karen on November 18, 2009 at 12:32pmKaren liked and commented on Good Will Hunting from Gotham Gal's recent things
I remember thinking this was how life in Boston would be like. Wicked smaht janitors running around needing therapy. Great flick though.

The plot was a good idea, but could've been executed better. I do love rotoscoping though.
- Karen on November 17, 2009 at 9:07pmKaren liked and commented on Rachel Getting Married from Alex Iskold's movies
Raw and unflinching. A normal wedding turned dysfunctional--brought on by one crazy sister. Loved the directing and how it made me feel.

Christopher Nolan can do no wrong.
- Karen on November 16, 2009 at 5:32pmKaren liked and commented on Requiem for a Dream from Fraser's movies
The dilated pupil says it all. Movie was more visual than plot-focused. But with this kind of message it's more than enough. Ellen Burstyn in that crazed vacuuming scene? wow wow wow

Such a deeply satisfying movie. Hence the redemption in the title.

Finally, a James Bond who has the swagger and the skills but is still flawed. Plus it's centered around poker. Nuff said.

A classic. One of those suspense movies, like Memento, that you should watch again.

See Uma. See Uma's ugly feet. See Uma kick ass. Good stuff.

Guns. Gangs. Betrayal. Scorsese given free reign on a good script and a stellar cast. What's not to like?
- Karen on August 24, 2009 at 9:22pmKaren liked and commented on Inglourious Basterds on imdb.com
Classic tarantino. Long scenes with seemingly mundane (but witty) dialogue. Needless gore and violence. Loved it.
- Karen on August 18, 2009 at 5:05pmKaren liked and commented on Half Nelson on netflix.com
Ryan Gosling gives an amazing performance. Loved the non traditional story and the friendship that develops between the two.
