Danny ChaiA pretty big fan of Pleasantville? You gave it 2.5 stars, maybe 3.
Saw Minority Report: 4.1 stars. I thought it was well made and somewhat thought provoking, but I kind of disagreed with the thoughts it provoked. And actually, the more I think about it, the less sense it makes. But it was still really good.
So in Tahiti, both of the places we stayed at showed movies in English on the TVs at night so we watched a few. Certain movies were as good or better on reviewing (Bridget Jones’s Diary, Moulin Rouge). Meet The Parents was still funny but a little too much. I know Eddie and Hanah thought it was terrible. I think it’s pretty funny but dunno if I could watch again. SN. You know when he’s in the market buying champagne and DeNiro is outside with a shady character – Day By Day from Godspell is playing in the store. That’s why he says the lyrics in the prayer. I dunno, I didn’t notice that before.
Anyway, AI didn’t stand up to repeating viewings at all. Saw it a couple more times. I’m still completely confused by the ending, and the parts I thought interesting were a lot less deep the second time around. And the movie is just completely depressing. I’m downgrading it – 1.5 stars. And I still think Teddy is absolutely confusing – he muddles all the possible philosophical points.
So yeah, Minority Report was way better than AI.
