[Q]: " being john malkovich " is the type of film we need to see more .
today 's films are either blockbusters that entertain us with tiresome formulas , or those that have similar themes .
malkovich falls under none of these categories , and it 's quite refreshing to see that occur .
this strangely provoking story , is actually somewhat understandable .
john cusack plays a puppeteer trying to make it to the big time .
his wife ( cameron diaz ) supports the both of them by working at a petstore , which explains the obscure pets they keep in their apartment .
when cusack finally realizes he needs to get a job , he finds an ad for a filing clerk .
when he reaches the building , he arrives at a 7 1/2 floor .
it 's there that he discovers a secret portal that leads to being john malkovich for 15 minutes at a time .
meanwhile , cusack meets a business partner ( catherine keener ) , in which he falls madly in love with her .
the only problem is , she has no interest in him
what so ever .
the whole portal thing , is n't just a toy , in fact , it becomes cusack 's dream .
being inside malkovich 's mind , gave him the opportunity to basically control mlakovich , like a puppet , and to fulfill his fantasies .
i do n't want to give away too much , but cusack becomes too attached with his discovery .
in my opinion , this idea is absolutely brilliant .
it 's really quite scary to think that someone could become you , control you , be you .
it makes you wonder why we act like we do , and why sometimes we blurt out things or act out something out of the blue .
even if the script is super sharp , i ca n't help but find the ending displeasing .
it could have lead up to something more , or at least an amusing conclusion .
it tried to explain a mythology about the portals , that made it seem rushed .
other than that ,
i had a very enjoyable time .
the acting was quite delightful as well .
john cusack has finally been given a chance to prove his ability , and he does it well .
he 's by far the most underrated actor due to a lack of popularity , but i 'm hoping that will change .
cameron diaz was her usual charming self , although i felt that part was wrong for her , but
she pulled it off .
john malkovich himself continues to creep out people with his eerie facial expressions and tone of voice .
who else 's mind would be better to explore ?
the director , spike jonze , who appeared in last month 's three kings really catches my attention with this project .
i knew he was bizzare , but not to this extreme .
he too is likely too receive media attention .
" being john malkovich " is n't an excellent film , but it is definitly entertaining and will eaisly become a cult favorite .
what 's even better is the film 's puzzling message . . .
am i nick lyons ?

[Q]: countries and legal systems that take the rule of law principle seriously , had forbidden judges and juries to make judgements in all matters that could involve them personally .
luckily , movie reviewers are n't burdened with such legislation .
otherwise , small pool of very special movies would be forever ignored by this reviewer .
in case of star wars , 1977 science fiction epic by george lucas , the consequences would be even more severe , because that film is very special for tens of millions , if not hundreds of millions of fans .
in any case , objectivity is something seldom seen in star wars reviews , because undisputed majority of reviewers rate it as one of the best , if not the best film of all times .
those who do n't usually have some difficulties in hiding their artistic snobbery .
the author of this review must also concede his inability to use cold , objective standards in reviewing this film .
like so many previous reviewers , i must note that i watched star wars for the first time twenty years ago , and that i remained enchanted by the experience ever since .
perhaps it was childlike fascination with , until then unimaginable , wonders that happened long time ago , in a galaxy far away .
or perhaps it was the rush i felt minutes before the opening shots , with my expectations already pumped up by serialised comic books and novelisation i had read before .
anyway , watching of star wars was one of the most important movie going experiences of my life .
and it was also unmatched for many years to come , because very few movies managed to have such a strong impact on me like george lucas ' epic .
star wars was n't just important movie for me ( or the millions of fans who probably share the same sentiment ) .
it was the defining moment in the history of modern cinema .
until than , american motion picture industry was in a limbo ; social turmoil in 1960s practically destroyed the old hollywood , and new authors filled the void , mostly by using hollywood 's financial and technical resources to create serious , " personal " or " artsy " movies . as a result , audience , traumatised of dark reality of vietnam and watergate , did n't want to see the same dark and serious content on the silver screen .
george lucas with its science fiction epic was among the first to come into rescue .
the audience responded with unprecedented enthusiasm , and huge financial success of the movie , later backed by supplement industry of toys , books , comics , role playing games and other merchandise , slowly began to change the face of hollywood . serious , adult movies with artistic ambitions faded into oblivion , and were replaced by industrial products of " blockbuster " philosophy .
one of the biggest casualties of that trend was the science fiction movie genre .
until 1977 , science fiction movies were mostly in b - production domain .
in late 1960s , bigger budgets for science fiction did n't look so strange anymore , thanks to the great success of 2001 : a space odyssey .
but the same success coincided with the surge of pesimism , and hollywood science fiction was as bleak as the rest of its production - mostly dark , dystopic movies .
however , in 1977 star wars showed once and for all that this genre can be inspiration for popular movies , even among the audience that usually does n't like it .
as a result , seriousness in cinematic science fiction began fading away , although some good , dark and cult quality sf and continued to be filmed until early 1980s .
after that , science fiction continued to be considered a synonym for family entertainment .
ironically , the man responsible for star wars was in its time considered to be member of " new hollywood " generation of young movie authors who made " artsy " and " personal " films in early 1970s .
george lucas established himself with the dystopic sf movie thx 1138 , and nostalgic drama american graffiti .
both movies were considered " personal " in its time , despite latter one becoming very popular .
in a sense , star wars is an also very " personal " film , and the thorny way to the final production shows that commercial considerations were against it , not for it .
but unlike many " personal " movies of the era , its " personality " was in line with the wishes of the general audience .
the plot , set " a long time ago , in a galaxy far away " , begins in a time of civil war .
the evil empire is threatened by rebels who want to restore the old republic .
in order to quash any opposition , the empire had built death star , superweapon powerful enough to destroy whole planets .
the information about death star , acquired by rebel intelligence , is being transported by princess leia organa ( carrie fisher ) when her ship gets intercepted by imperial cruiser .
princess is arrested by imperial warlord darth vader ( played by david prowse and voice by james earl jones ) , but the information is being sent to nearby desert planet of tatooine via two humanoid robots - c3po ( anthony daniels ) and r2d2 ( kenny baker ) .
those two robots are sold to the family of luke skywalker ( mark hamill ) , young restless man who wants to leave his farm and become space pilot .
his adventure begins when r2d2 escapes , because the information must reach mysterious local hermit obi wan kenobi ( alec guiness ) .
old man is actually the last surviving jedi knight , member of the ancient order that defended republic through the use of mystical force .
after some hesitation , luke agrees to join obi wan in his mission to save the princess , while the old man would teach him the ways of the force .
their small band comes to the colourful spaceport of moss eisely , where they hire the spaceship owned by rogue pilot han solo ( harrison ford ) and his furry sidekick chewbacca ( peter mayhew ) .
critics who do n't like the movie , especially those who ca n't forgive lucas for his contribution to the quashing of " new hollywood " , are prone to point the lack of originality .
on the surface , they might be right ; lucas himself admits that he found a lot of inspiration in the lore of old hollywood - westerns , wwii aviation movies , old sf cliffhanger serials of the 1930s and 1940s ; yet the most obvious element would be akira kurosawa 's samurai classic the hidden fortress .
on the other hand , those who had spent last two decades studying the movie to death would say that the inspiration for star wars went even further - into collective subconscious of western civilisation ( hinted by some mild tolkien references ) .
the others would find the author 's element within the story - star wars could be seen as an anti- establishment film ; young , long - haired , easy going , nature - loving heroes are fighting against old , uptight and oppressive forces who use supertechnology in most demonic purposes .
even out of its historical or social context , star wars is an impressive as a strictly technical piece of the seven art .
george lucas ' direction is very good , with the clever editing and a well - paced segments between action and dramatic buildup .
characters are well - drawn and deliver all the necessary ingredients , both for the space opera and hollywood blockbuster .
we have a " coming - of - age " hero , damsel - in - distress ( somewhat toned down due to the popular feminist trends of the time ) , reluctant helper , benevolent mentor , diabolical villain and , finally , comic relief in form of two non - human characters .
some of the actors are very good - alec guiness in his most famous role to date , james earl jones whose voice is enough to cause unease , peter cushing as an incarnation of pure evil in human form .
unfortunately , the same ca n't be said for the main leads - among the main trio of mark hamill , carrie fisher and harrison ford
, only the last one had the character three - dimensional enough to launch his further acting career .
the thing that looked like the most important segment of star wars phenomena during its initial release was the new level of special effects technology .
often comparisons with 2001 : space odyssey , another ground - breaking sf film , were citing the sheer number of effects as a proof of the lucas ' superiority over kubrick . however , the special effects by john dykstra and john stears are indeed impressive , even after two decades ( although 1997 special edition did improve them significantly ) , yet they are n't the most remembered trademark of the movie .
that honour should definitely go to the " oscar " -winning soundtrack by john williams , whose work on star wars is probably the brightest gem in his brilliant career
.
newer generations of viewers might be somewhat deprived of the enchantment that still holds those lucky enough to witness star wars original release .
yet , even if they are immune to the george lucas ' magic
they should watch this film nevertheless , perhaps only to become familiar with something that is essential part of contemporary culture .

[Q]: out of sight director steven sorderbergh baffles the hell out of us
all in the limey , a cold , uninvolving , confusing new thriller .
though the plot description may at first seem like it came from the pen of elmore leonard ( author of out of sight , as well as jackie brown , get shorty and pulp fiction ) , after you watch it , you realize that it 's not nearly good enough . in an aggressively non - linear fashion , the limey ( li * mey , noun : an english gentleman ) tells the story of wilson ( terrence stamp ) , a british ex - con just released from a 9 year stint in prison for armed robbery .
he has come to the us to seek vengeance for the death of his daughter jenny .
he does n't know much about the circumstances of her demise , all he has is a name : terry valentine .
valentine was jenny 's former boyfriend , a wealthy and corrupt record executive .
he 's played by peter fonda , in his first major role since the terrific ulee 's gold in 1997 . seeking valentine 's reclusive place of residence turns out to be no easy task for wilson .
he finally finds the impressive abode high in the mountains and sneaks in just as valentine is having a big party .
he winds up breaking his cover eventually , setting off valentine 's head of security and valentine himself , who decides to run for it .
what a mess .
i have no problem
when films refuse to be constricted by the linearity of time -- pulp fiction , which twisted time every which way , was a masterpiece -- but i do take exception to movies that decide to play around with it for no reason other than to confuse the viewer .
the limey does exactly that .
the plot is permeated with flashbacks , flash - forwards and what can only be described as random time - travel
, without any evident purpose .
there is no method to this movie 's madness .
it uses a fancy way to tell a story that would be better off told more conventionally and more comprehendably .
the plot is n't particularly interesting in the first place : traditional , mildly hackneyed and not very involving .
this is a sort of brooding film -- our protagonist does n't speak much and the action sequences are done with an annoyingly perfunctory attitude .
i felt like the director was n't very interested in the proceedings himself , almost like he made this film for a paycheck .
ditto for the editing , which seems to be deliberately sloppy and unpleasant .
sixties icon terrence stamp manages to at least be menacing as the aging criminal .
he 's not much in the way of stature
but he has a surprisingly imposing physical presence that works to his advantage here .
peter fonda is an unbelievably underrated actor : he 's shy , quiet but always effective .
he 's adept at conveying emotions through speech rather than expression : his feelings do n't always show on his face by you can always tell what they are .
this is basically a conventional thriller told in a pretentiously bizarre fashion .
why soderbergh could n't just parrot down and tell a story , i do n't know , but what he does do certainly does n't work .
the result is a wild cornucopia of images that amount to precisely nil
-- even the action scenes do n't work .
1999 may have signified the death of the traditional act one - act two - act three storyline , but obviously some movies have not yet transcended it .
shall we go back to basics ?
