Lies make us happy

Big Fish (2003)

Director: Tim Burton

Stars: Ewan MacGregor

Albert Finney

Billy Crudup

Helena Bonham carter

Alison Lohman

Marion Cotillard

Steve Buscemi

etc...

Oh, don't you get excited when you just see these stars?

Well, I do !

First of all,

I liked this story.

I was touched.

It's boring to tell stories as they are.

Our lives are going to be awesome by just putting flavor called "lie"

A man tells stories so many times

that he becomes the stories.

They live after on him.

Look at this!!

The world Tim Burton makes perfectly suits this story.

There is an air of fantasy and a dreamy atmosphere.

This is a scene in the movie fulfilled with fantasy.

Ewan and Alison

and a song by Pearl Jam is great !

Man of the hour / Pearl Jam

The Art of Getting By (Fall? 2011)

Director: Gavin Wiesen

Stars: Freddie Highmore

Emma Roberts

I'm getting excited of the stars in this film.

Grown-up Freddie and Emma.

I love to see them in the movie.

I still think they are just kids.

But actually, they are not what they used to be nor what I know any more.

So, that's what I expect most.

It's time to see their new faces and acts.

Trailer

I must be inspired.

Robot?

Wall・E (2008) Disney/PIXER

Director: Andrew Stanton

I was surprised.

Eyes can make robots humane this much !

WALL E and EVE don't talk too much each other.

They are robots.

But, they have their own hearts,

and only eyes can express their feelings.

At this point, they are so humane.

I guess that's because they are made by human.

Sadness, delight, anger, and love

They have all these.

So, what I want to say is that

they are more than robots.

It may not about main theme of this film,

but that's what I felt through the film.

Look at this scene !

Can you say they are robots?

Storyline

In a distant future, the earth is not a place where we can live any more.

It's fulfilled with garbage.

All mankind have escaped from the earth already.

One garbage collecting robot, WALL E has been left to clean up the mess.

One day, another type of robot, EVE was send to the earth to find proof that life is once again sustainable.

WALL E fell in love with her.

That's the start of this story.

Can human go back to the earth and live there once again?

Super 8 !

Super 8 (2011)

Writer/Director: J.J. Abrams

Producer: Steven Spielberg

Stars: Elle Fanning

Joel Courtney

Kyle Chandler

zach Mills

etc...

Good Times.

It is composed of so many elements.

It's hard to be categorized.

SF, creature, adventure, mystery.......

An element I loved most in this film is love.

It's just pure!

The story is about a group of friends.

Their passions are on making super 8 film.

Everybody must recall what you did in your childhood.

Your own good times.

That's the best part of this movie I think.

Trailer (My favor)

Storyline

In the summer of 1979, a group of friends in a small Ohio town witness a catastrophic train crash while making a super 8 movie and soon suspect that it was not an accident. 

Shortly after, unusual disappearances and inexplicable events begin to take place in town, and the local Deputy tries to uncover the truth - something more terrifying than any of them could have imagined.

Amazing !!
Al Pacino !! Bravo !!

Is he blind?
No, I don't think so.
He can see more than those who has eyes.

He makes me wonder,
"Who in the world is really blind?"

Even though he cannot see,
it's enough if only he can smell the scent of a woman.


Tango scene, that's awesome!

I want to see more other "Tango" movies.

Penelope Cruz
Geoffrey Rush
Gemma Ward


I enjoyed spending time with this movie. :)
This is the fourth episode of "Pirates" series.
I watched 3D version.
and I noticed that I don't like 3D much. :(

3D glasses make it dark,
and it become brightless.
so,
I prefer to watch this movie with 2D.

I'm not saying 3D is bad.
It's a great technology.

but this time, I felt so....

Storyline

Someone is disguising as Jack hiring his crew.
Real Jack tries to certify who that is,

Now, Captain Barbossa is on the ship also.

Everybody embarks on a quest to find the "fountain of youth"
