I've always thought there was something a bit sleazy about the guy, long before the shit hit the fan in his life. They're just allegations anyway at the moment, unproven. 2 hours ago, Denise Bryson said: He never acted like Julian Clary, so I was completely oblivious. I like Clary.

bollemanneke 3,352 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Guilty at 17. I didn't want to watch this at first, but there was nothing else on. Where to start? First, the movie is way too short to tell its story. That also means any plot summary gives half of it away. Second, that story is just stupid. At first, I thought it was rather contemporary, for want of a better word, but then it unfolded and I suppose the biggest problem was that every single character does one absurd thing after another. Really, if you want to research how characters in movies should not behave, watch this one. They reacted inappropriately, acted inappropriately and even had conversations that you either just don't have in real life or that you just conduct totally differently. And the way those teenagers spoke, urgh. American English at its worst. The score wasn't bad at all. Well, it wasn't great either, but hey, it wasn't in D minor, so I should be on top of the world. Underscoring emotional scenes with rock music doesn't really work for me, only the very last song did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The newer one I referred to as Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle, so as to distinguish it from the original, though it can get confusing. Maybe I should have just put 1995 at the end, instead.

bollemanneke 3,352 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 The Truman Show. I was afraid I wouldn't like this one, because, yet again, the plot summary revealed way too much. The first half wasn't really exciting, but then it became much better. My only remark now is that I simply don't buy the fact that Truman never ever realised the whole thing was a set-up before. Very original concept that raises a lot of interesting questions. It's been a long time since I've heard such a bad score. Granted, there were a few moving dramatic cues, but the bulk of the work sounded like it was composed by an eight-year-old trying to become a composer. The action material is just stupid and the final cues are sheer disaster, not to mention the music when his dad 'dies'. All the source music, however, was nice enough.

Wojo 2,453 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I remember seeing that in the theater, but I don't think I've seen it soup to nuts since. It's best to not overanalyze such an abstract plot like that. It's like thinking about what Bruce Willis does in The Sixth Sense in between scenes. It doesn't work. It doesn't need to.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I didn't understand the ending to The Sixth Sense when I first saw it in '99.

Wojo 2,453 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Serenity is not like trying to understand differential equations or semiconductor device theory. If you don't understand those topics, it's forgivable because they are complicated fields of science. But if you don't understand the plot of a simple science fiction movie, well, then you're just stupid. Unlucky Bastard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 There are other, more complex films I can understand.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Some movies like Serenity are too damn plotty for their own good. The bad guy is bad but he's really good because there are these other bad guys who are even badder, plus these other bad guys who are nasty too, meanwhile the special girl is captured at the beginning and rescued but she seemed to be safe and well at the end of the series, and a bunch of other crap thrown in. Whatever, it was just hard to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I saw the movie once four years ago. I don't need to see it again for twice that. It's not worth thinking about much beyond that.
