“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was starring Russell Crowe, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, to be honest, I was surprised by how little I actually cared about this movie after all. Â While watching the damned thing, I was thinking that it was some kin” read more

Notes: If you are interested in film story, this movie is pretty much a must-see. Indeed, itâs usually considered as the very first animated feature and I have to admit that I was actually quite impressed by the damned thing. Sure, it might seem rather rudimentary with its black background and these simple stick figures drawn with some white lines but, in fact, I thought the animation was actually quite sophisticated, especially since it was such a precursor in this genre. The other really interesting aspect with this movie was how wild it was from a narrative point of view. Indeed, even though some viewers pointed out that there was some kind of plot, Ămile Cohl, who probably made the whole thing himself on his own, certainly didnât stick it to it. Instead, it goes from one random thing to another random thing every few seconds and the end-result was quite spellbinding to behold. Eventually, even though a running time of less than 2 mins might seem to be super short, it was actually perfect for this material and I donât think it would really work if you would extend it. Anyway, it is really neat that, back in those days, they could come up with something so experimental and the damned thing is therefore definitely worth a look.

“I already saw this movie but since it was ages ago and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out again. In fact, a week ago, I already rewatched 'Les bronzĂ©s' and I was quite impressed by how much better it was than I remembered so I was definitely less apprehensive ” read more
“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was directed by David Lean and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out.

“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but, since it seemed to have a decent reputation (it was nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award and it was apparently a big box-office success when it was released), I thought I might as well check it out. On top of that, when I was studyin” read more
Notes: I have to admit that the damned thing turned out to be actually much more watchable than I expected, at least, during the first 30 mins. Indeed, they gave not one but two really unexpected and insane car crashes and the whole âBreakfast Clubâ vibe was actually pretty neat. Unfortunately, this positive first impression didnât last for very long, Iâm afraid. The main issue was that it took them no less than 90 mins to finally become some freaking Power Rangers. Indeed, not only this movie lasting 2 hours was just way too long but, above all, it took them forever to finally get their damned suit on. Eventually, it was pretty obvious that this movie was supposed to be the start of a new franchise (they even teased the upcoming addition of a Green Ranger) but Iâm afraid this movie was not successful enough since no sequel was released afterwards.
“I wasnât expecting much from this flick but since it was starring Elizabeth Banks, I thought I might as well check it out. First of all, I have to admit that I have never watched the TV-show âMighty Morphin Power Rangersâ but I did watch âChoudenshi Biomanâ even though, to be honest, it wa” read more
