Whatever I start with the crowds

Year: 2011

Directed by: Giulio Manfredonia

Distribution: Distribution o1

has the merit of being an instant movie that "any" directed by Giulio Manfredonia and starring the South's political Cetto The matter, played by Antonio Albanian. The De Santis

political "threat" Calabria with the weapon of the law. Unheard of, especially if your name is La Cetto Whatever your curriculum and can boast a long period of hiding in South America. Just got back in his homeland, Cetto wants to bring his country on the right path of organized crime. To do so, De Santis will compete for the office of mayor ...

A little 'step back Antonio Albanian playing well that we had used sophisticated comedies (" Days and Clouds" and "Matters of the Heart"), and now they want return to a speck of his characters, Cetto, already appeared in comic strips television. And if one part is undeniable that it is useful, in a time like this for Italian politics, play down the hardships of a politician with only one thought in mind, the other Manfredonia's film fails to go beyond the mere sketch . In the end, then, has the feeling of having lost a good opportunity to say something new and clever about events that affect our (no longer) young Italy. Tap

put up yet another film that idles instead. And Antonio Albanian was reasonable to expect something more.

Why Do I Keep Getting Zits In My Nose

Year: 2011
Director: Todd Phillips

Distribution: Warner Bros.

Back after Todd Phillips success of "The Hangover " wacky and zany comedy that two seasons ago had done (almost) a miracle.

Architect Peter Highman is located in Atlanta on business when his wife informed him by telephone from Los Angeles on Friday will give birth to their first child. Peter, happy, want to go back immediately, but the encounter with the bizarre series of misunderstandings Ethan and force him to get off the plane. To arrive in time for the birth, then, man is forced to be accompanied by Ethan own, rather eccentric character by the way ...

It 'always good Todd Phillips, even when as in this case is a nice person, but very incisive. The director relies on the experience of Robert Downey Jr. and all'istrionismo Zach Galifianakis, but the result is variable. The odd couple might not work as it should, and the film looks more like legendary echo coupled as Matthau-Lemmon, rather than the Martin-Lewis. We expected something more, well, especially after the aforementioned "The Hangover". There, there was perhaps a carelessness that is missing in this "I'm leaving with the crowds, partly because the genre buddy-buddy, in contrasting two opposing characters in order to extract a laugh, also assumes a certain underlying melancholy. And this, or you can handle - Landis and Hughes in this sense act as a benchmark - or you end up chapter in the comic vein.

Green Hornet

Year: 2011

Director: Michel Gondry

Distribution: Sony Pictures

director Michel Gondry returns to serve the comic genre. After wandering among the feelings of love ("If Spotless Mind"), dreams ("The Science of Sleep") and film ("Be Kind Rewind "), now goes to touch the strings of 'Entertainment taking the characters of a (not so) famous radio series before and after graphic novel, whose origins date back to 1936 no less than by the duo George W. Trendle and Fran Striker.

Britt Reid is the dissolute son of one of the largest publishers of Los Angeles. When his father died, Britt inherits the Daily Sentinel and makes friends with Kato, the gardener to do all of his old. Thanks to Kato, Britt finds himself caught in a night raid that led him to step into the shoes of Green Hornet, a masked vigilante. The advertising on their paper, however, pushes the problem of crime to be interested ...

E 'physiological. Comes to everyone on the day of truth. The moment when the genre exhausted all its cartridges - the inspiration, enthusiasm, trials - and become a cliché. That 's what perceived watching "Green Hornet", yet another unconventional fumettone, fracassone, full of jokes, chases, fights and references to other movies and comics. A film is not bad nor boring, where you really enjoy thanks to the good dose of humor that enriches the writing, but where there is the inevitable lack of real ideas.

In "Green Hornet" (a historical paradox that makes him a forefather of the superhero, before Batman and Superman for instance) there is really everything. They range from references to Sin City, Batman and Robin, the Pink Panther, and even in action films like "Lethal Weapon" or "Beverly Hills Cop." The protagonist is a strange mix between Peter Parker and Bruce Wayne, while co-star is called Kato, does martial arts and emulate Bruce Lee in the late sixties he had played (really) in the homonymous TV series. Citing short circuit in which the director Michel Gondry loves to splash around, but the final effect is, however, that the mere decal.

Gondry, on the other hand, takes its director and visionary, especially in a couple of sequences, demonstrates character and desire to renew. One must also mention the scene where the underworld is the word of the vigilante killing, or the moment when the protagonist relates everything that happened until birth Green Hornet.

short, "Green Hornet" is a film well directed, well played and fun, but sin in the absolute lack of novelty. Only for fans of the genre.

As God commands

Year: 2008

Director: Gabriele Salvatores

Distribution: 01

Based on the novel by Niccolo 'Amman, winner Strega Prize, "As God commands," reports Gabriele Salvatores behind the camera after "Quo Vadis Baby?". The outcome of this new direction is fluctuating, due to a script perhaps too brief compared to the long novel that inspires.

Northern Italy. Rino Zena is a violent father, but very close to his son Christian who tries to grow despite the boy's shyness and social services that they would split. During a late night a friend of theirs, Quattroformaggi, rapes and murders a girl friend of the school of Christ. Rino racing to the rescue of the girl but it's late and took a moment of anger, he suffered a heart attack. It is a Christian, then, to fix the ugly face of blood ...

For the second time after "I'm Not Scared" Salvatores inspired by a novel in Amman, but this time with results not so happy. Salvatores's film, in fact, is too fragmented models of various parts together. A first in which we witness of Christian education, a second micro-universe in which we know the characters, and a third dedicated to the act of violence, until the final, taking away much of the intimate nature of the novel Twilight, in a blatant prejudice all happy end, not in tune with the tenor of the story. In short, the director, trying to catch the many aspects that made up the whole novel loses sight of the main themes of the plot, or the incomprehensibility of the act and the lack of total security man, placed himself in front of their own destiny on which does not have any control.

Good actors, however, Filippo Timi, very persuasive. Weaker interpretation of Elio Germano, a bit 'too smug.

Differentiating Kidney Pain From Muscle Pain

Fans still

Year: 2009

Director: Gabriele Muccino

Distribution: Medusa

In yet Kiss Gabriele Muccino, there is a scene that encompasses the whole soul of the film. That is one of five people who return to the fountain that had seen them excited and ready for a new start in The Last Kiss, and now they find no water. Well, this is the effect that the viewer does kiss me again. The wait to find out what happened to the lives of the protagonists in The Last Kiss is so great, but it pays off and ends up disappointing as a missed opportunity.

Moreover, Gabriele Muccino launches into a challenge in itself quite complicated. To resume his old characters in a film after ten years. Before him, only great masters like Truffaut and Rohmer had succeeded in that goal, so it is understandable the stale air from performance anxiety that can breathe a little 'for the duration.

Anyway, Kiss still finds the couples formed by Charles and Julia, the constant search for balance, Marco and Veronica, in crisis because of the lack of a child, Livia and Paul, who try to stay together despite the severe pathology of him and friends and Alberto Adriano, looking for a place in the world . Between anxiety, racing (in hospital), screams, cries and passionate kisses, the characters come to the same awareness about life ...

The rhythm is there, and as always, even excessive. Why director Gabriele Muccino is able to entertain the audience and now his skill behind the camera is known to occur, especially after the experiences of Hollywood. Unfortunately the script is to be the weak point of this production. Too many naive in the script, too many narrative elements thrown in without interruption. And perhaps, too many characters, that after all this time do not seem to be completed at all. Unlike The Last Kiss, Kiss is still more collective, but there is a good conductor capable of directing the entire line for its duration. Two and a half hours: too long. Muccino also that, as mentioned, is one who knows his job well done.

Not a bad movie, also saved by a cast in a state of grace. But certainly not the consecration of Gabriele Muccino now that we expected. Returning to the image of the fountain: go see the movie hoping to see her again overflowing water, and instead you will find it dry.

Do By Ids Have Holograms

An Education

Year: 2010

Director: Lone Scherfig

Distribution: Sony

The author of About a Boy and Fever 90, Nick Hornby wrote the screenplay for An Education, a small tale of adolescent life, produced by BBC.Londra, 1961.

Jenny was sixteen, and his age is intelligent, sensitive and with a sense of humor as for life. His desire to grow and explode all at once when she meets David, a thirty year old who embodies the spirit of the "swinging London ". Jenny immediately falls in love and their relationship to make the "woman" ...

It 's a small film, but manages to be this big An Education directed by Lon Scherig. To summarize the direction, one could think of a hand that slowly opens slowly to show a beautiful flower. And 'this attitude used by Scherig final effect is amazing. A slow pace, but not boring. Dialogues and sharp incisors. Some momentum in bold script (perhaps out of place where the excessive freedom given to the girl from her parents), and a magnificent (director speaking) "first time" going to close after a cynical circle romantic life of a Paris sensattotina to frame and take home.

excellent performers on which stands Alfred Molina and the star Carey Mulligan, really charming, with her looks that embodies the will to life (and strength) of all adolescents.

Were To Buy A Hedgehog

Meet our

Year: 2011

Director: Paul Weitz

Distribution: Universal Pictures

A third episode is a bit 'controversial what protagonists spouses Fockers, The pair formed by Ben Stiller and Teri Polo in "Meet our". And yes, because I spent ten years first episode, that "Arrested Development" which ironically was polite to the audience, and the years inevitably makes itself felt. Just like in a couple sailed, it seems that the narrative point of view is less spontaneity, irony, the flicker, the desire to play the game the first time. Then tap run for cover with a richer cast and a plot that becomes more deliberately garbled.

Pam's father touches the heart attack and Gaylord - Greg - Fockers decides to take the reins of the family. Tensions soon followed when, on the occasion of the birthday of the little Fockers back an old lover Pam. Greg will have to unravel a thousand misunderstandings to create a memorable birthday ...

Let's just say that there was a handover, and director Jay Roach, who was well-directed the first two episodes, he surrendered the throne to the new Paul Weitz that he reluctantly sought to exploit all those cliches that were formed on the narrative fabric. In other words Weitz has made a film so funny, if you want even more than before, but losing sight of the real protagonists of the series. Where before there was the couple Fockers, husband and wife, now the bar has shifted in favor of the couple De Niro - Stiller, father and son, going to sacrifice quite heavy throughout the rest of the excellent cast. It is a shame because it is a bit 'as if it altered the spirit.

For the rest, ride, and a lot, because Stiller, even with a few more gray hairs, remains one of the best American comedians. The plot is muddled and it is not clear that it is the narrative that seeks to give voice to all. But the family is very numerous final outcome is a bit 'like an evening with relatives, where everyone is talking about, but nobody says anything.

How To Practice Lacrosse In Your House

Yogi Bear

Year: 2011

Director: Eric Brevig

Distribution: Warner Bors.

As expected, a film focusing on the Yogi Bear was not much to expect. Unfortunately, the case of the hybrid live action and computer graphics (similar to what happened to the film "Alvin and the Chipmunks "), is even worse than expected.

Jellystone Park is threatened by Mayor Brown, in a crisis so as to be compelled to close the park to be able to sell to private acres, earn a lot of money and revive public administration. Yogi and Booboo then find themselves forced to ally themselves to their "enemy" Ranger Smith to save the park from closure ...

Eric Brevig, the director of "Journey to the Center of the Earth", he created a film overly dedicated to children. In a time when the animation goes hand in hand with the rest of the production, both for content and for artistic quality, meet in front of characters so banal, so clearly marked and free of any shade, leaves quite frankly perplexed. Perhaps the problem is that the Yogi Bear and Booboo, like many creatures made in Hanna and Barbera were aged very badly. The simplicity of Yogi today borders on the ridiculous and is no longer laughing. The arrogance of Bubu is not credible. The secondary characters, by Ranger Smith to Mayor Brown, are redundant even in the economy of the already flimsy plot. This film version of Yogi is too weak and undermined by formal errors that are unacceptable for a child. Actors who look outside the field in front of them when they have the CGI version of Yogi and Boo-Boo, or the lack of collision between the computer graphics and the scenery are just some of the gaps ... In short, a disaster.

People of different nationalities, each with a different story that led him to live in this underwater world of the last of our society!
