Films once again

To continue my previous post about films…

A Fish Called Wanda, 1988, 8/10: It’s a comedy, a reasonably good one too. Undeniably Pythonesque.

A Hard Day’s Night, 1964, 7/10: Something between a comedy and a documentary. Maybe documenting a comedy.

Citizen Kane, 1941, 10/10: Classic, well worth watching (some people said that they expected too much and were disappointed afterwards; well, I don’t expect anything anymore (I still remember “expecting” before watching Pulp Fiction, no thank you), so I was more than satisfied).

Sling Blade, 1996, 10/10: Absolutely stunning film, wonderful atmosphere, great plot, and fitting end.

Black Cat, White Cat, 1998, 7/10: Romantic village comedy… a bit too many characters, but otherwise ok.

Taxi Driver, 1976, 3/10: The main problem here was that I couldn’t associate myself with the hero at all. After a while, I started actively hating him. It got a bit better when he had a good chance to bang a 12 year old girl and chose not to do so. The four points are solely for the ending, which was rather good (but the ordeal of the first three quarters of the film is not really worth it, me thinks).

Seven Samurai, 1954, 9/10: Great movie, many interesting ideas and good points. Moreover, the ending was just marvelous.

You can expect more posts like this, I guess… :)
