I’ve seena whole slew of movies of late, without having mentioned of them here. So here’s a listing, with a brief haiku-formatted review (It originally just said haiku, but Leah pointed out they’re really only haiku formatting, not actual haikus) for each:
Insomnia:
Pacino over-acts
the west coast looks beautiful
très European
The Ring:Read Infinite Jest
this scared the fuck outta me
a great horror film
The Truth about Charlie:
A surreal remake
an homage to French New Wave
a whole lot of fun
Men In Black II
Will Smith’s the bad-ass
Laura Flynn Boyle’s the baddie
The jokes haven’t changed
My First Mister:
he’s old and dying
she’s young, ‘troubled’ and loves him
break out the Kleenex
Donnie Darko:
a disturbed genius
and a demonic rabbit!
do not miss this film.
Bowling for Colmbine:
has Mike Moore gone soft?
asks important questions but
should have been harsher
8 Mile:
Eminem’s story
with a cinematic flair
is pretty darn good.
