In Time (2011)
A Sci Fi delight
I liked everything about this, the coloring of the camera work, the gloomy filters they used, the night shots, done well.
A fresh story line that only slightly resembles "Logan's Run", but done with very little effects. Good acting from Justin. Cillian Murphy stands out as the gung ho time cop. Vince Karthieser also does well in his role. This movie puts me in the mind of a Phillip K. Dick short story but it is not attributed to him. I wonder why they did not think to turn this into a series on television.
Even though there are some continuity errors, I found it entertaining enough for Sci Fi. No, I did not go to the theater to see this, as I'd rather use the CC at home.
Casablanca Express (1989)
waste of film
I can only guess some of these actors were looking for paychecks and they are the only ones who profit from this. Nothing is good ; the camera-work is poor, the script is poor, there is no closed captions, and the sound really sucks. you can almost see 20 foot booms with mics dangling from them, instead of mics on the actors. Alright, the scenery is OK. And this is proof that just because you have actors as parents doesn't mean you get any talent from the genes. This was one of the last movies for Glenn Ford, an iconic actor from the 40's and 50's. Even Donald Pleasence is in this, the same year he shot Halloween 5. Some of the chase scenes were overly long and not necessary to the story. Unnecessary nudity and "love scenes" used as filler.
Flying Lessons (2010)
Too bad
Only saw 30 minutes, too bad about not providing CC. not engaging.
Ilike the main actors but we see early on that lahti is a wino with a ton of money and possibly her daughter
is slutty. then hal holbrook seems to think he's still a cop yet it appears he is too old to be one. Too slow for me, and the lighting was unrealistic. the girl's old boyfriend is also a bad actor. that sort of casting can ruin an iffy movie.
I suppose if It had CC I could watch more but since they do not weant to spend to small pittance required to provide that for people, I don't have the time to read the lius of the thespians.
