movies watched in 2010

Jan Campion is marvelous director. I found the images breathtaking & the story, as cheesy as some might think it is, was heartbreaking. She did an amazing job on retelling the story of the poet & his lover & blending poesy of John Keats in the movie. The actors did an wonderful job. Probably my favorite movie of the year, for the poesy that comes from the movie.

All time favorite.

Deceiving.

It's a lousy adaptation but as it's Harry Potter & that I try to be easily pleased, I liked it a lot.

Awful. I guess I'm just too young for this kind of movie but I don't know how I managed to stay awake for the whole movie, which felt like a week when it was barely two hours.

The beginning was really great but the second half/ending was just plain deceiving. So what, she just learned that you have to work to get somewhere in life because you can't live your life the way you want to be if it means just enjoying it? I guess that was true at the time, it just didn't work for me. If that is what we remember from the movie, it's sad. The actors were great though & it was well filmed.

I didn't really care about the political aspect (which is way more than just political when you know about Polanski's situation) but such a beautiful movie. He knows what he's doing when he's making a film & the result is splendid. Ewan McGregor is wonderful.

I thought it was weird at first but the story of those two lost musicians is perfect. The songs are also excellent.

Definitely my favorite Miyazaki (or maybe right behind My Neighbor Totoro but it always changes).

So cliché I thought I was gonna die before the end of the movie. But some funny scenes (thanks god or I would have shot my screen at how lame some dialogues were). What I would watch for you, Hugh Grant....
