Thirteen (2003)
Brilliant Movie
Insanely good movie, can't believe the IMDb would give it only a 7 in average, just shows how picky us IMDb-users are! Great actors, brilliant story and daring camera-moves. Some of the things shown are a bit on the extreme side, but it's still not unrealistic, far from.
Still though, I think many can relate to this movie, and learn from it.
So, what's bad in the movie? I can't really think of anything that I found bad. Some people might think it's too extreme and that this never happens (or that it happens too rarely to be relevant), but I'd like to disagree with that; I think it happens often enough for this movie to be of value to narrow-minded people talking about "when I were young...".
More people needs to remember how it was being young and a teen, and this movie helps doing just that!
Now go watch it, biatch! :O
Dr. Dolittle: Tail to the Chief (2008)
This Was One BAD Movie
I actually registered to IMDb just to comment on this extremely bad movie. I've seen all the movies I've got at home about 5 times each (we've got 500 or so), and I'd rather watch either one of them a 6th time, than recommending anyone watching this movie even once.
The plot was just silly, even for a child. Maybe a 4-year old could enjoy all the cute animals, but really, everything was just overly "cosy", stupid and there was no real meaning of the whole movie, at all.
Examples: (This is where the SPOILER starts, not that it matters in this movie anyway.) They're looking for the runaway dog, and Miss DoLittle asks the President's daughter if there's any place she could have gone. She answers, no, just to get some cheap emotions squeezed out of the audience. Then, after a few seconds, after the audience gave up all hope, she says "No, wait, there's this place where me and the dog used to hang out at all the time". And all I could think was "Duh, why didn't you just say that before?"...
The stupidity-levels are at the same level as the joke where the man asks if his friend can see that tree over there, and he answers "No I can't, because the forest is in the way".
Another example is the "mean intern girl", who first is very rude towards Miss DoLittle. When Miss DoLittle asks the "nice intern boy" for help, when the intern boy and the intern girl are working, she refuses to help them and the boy gets mad and says that there's more important things in the world than her career. Now, this is a girl who's been struggling all her life to work at "an international level by the time she's 30", but after her partner says that ("There's more important things than your career") she goes out and helps them to look for the dog like a good girl should! All I can say is wow. Just, wow.
I like cosy movies, I really do, but when they're sleazy and sickening sugar-sweet like this one, it just gets silly. I'll never watch this movie again. In fact, I'm going to delete it completely (haven't done that with any movie I have, not even Dead or Alive).
I'm not sure if I think the acting was really bad though; I'd have to see these guys in a movie with an actual plot to fully pass that judgement, all I know is that you can't make a tasty stew with rotten vegetables and sour cream, so, working from that experience, I won't judge the actors by this movie alone.
Summary: This movie is bad, really bad, for whatever the reasons may be.
