Easy A - film critic

It is therefore a take very modern on the scarlet letter, the classic novel by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Our heroine is a pretty girl in high school who lives under the radar going about his life up to that it is one day, then only in the bathroom, sarcastic telling her friend to stay assumed she was over the weekend. Her friend, who is none too bright is not the tone of his friend monologue and assumes that this is true all. Not only that but the class goody two shoes is one of the stall and hears the conversation together. News spreads like wildfire in high school, particularly juicy news. In one day, it continues to be completely unknown to a popular girl but morally cowardly. One of his professors, played by Thomas Haden Church, is concerned about taking on the role a little too seriously especially when she starts to wear red on his clothes.

His parents are fabulous and injecting enough humor as well as attention to make them not only credible, but also extremely sympathetic. There are the typical break a friendship because of misunderstandings, a boy who really like her and the void that accompanies it did not like it really is when it comes back with a great idea. Start a video blog explaining how all this has not worked. The film moves quickly and has sufficient resources to it to make it not only a movie teen. There is an entirely different story involving "good" girl and her group that meets regularly on campus and Church prays for other students while simultaneously murdering their characters brings us full circle to the scarlet letter and her puritanical ways. Difficulty walking and talking the talk, especially when it is so fun warm dishes served on others.

The world will end in 2012?

Therefore the world is going to expire in 2012 and also, why this particular date?

An ancient civilisation called Maya were very advanced when it comes to the study of the time. They have retained several very specific calendars, including one called account Long which began more than 5000 years ago and ends on December 21, 2012. Now their calendar ends on that date, is not really because the world is going to end in 2012, but Interestingly Maya aren't the only indicators of 2012 being one year hinge for human civilization.

The Incas, Hopi the Aztecs and the Zulu among others, all highlight this delay and more precisely than 2012, as being a "end of an age'." Also, many mediums and remote viewers believe also that we are at a crucial turning point in human evolution: indeed some remote viewers say they cannot "see" beyond 2012, almost as if they hit a brick wall!

There are others who believe that, rather the world ending in 2012, human beings humans will evolve into a much more advanced, spiritual race and real reality itself will be revealed and the mystery of time will be also unlocked. They believe that we will all wake up to the knowledge that we are human beings spiritual, having a physical experience on Earth, and that what we call die nothing more wake up after a night's sleep and dreams. I quite like the sound of this theory!

The film 2012, mixed with a bit of truth and much nonsense spectacular and introduced the idea of the Mayan calendar and 2012 into the mainstream. NASA too said they expect to sun major storms fits in 2012 cause electromagnetic interference possible on earth could have devastating consequences to the electrical grid and lay civilization Western back a few centuries.

Interestingly, the Sun was adored by all ancient civilizations, including the Maya, perhaps, that we must be prepared for a solar event?

2012 will probably go and come as any other year. The facts are well, there are many indications pointing to 2012 as being a very important year for us all here on Earth. If it means the world going to end in 2012, or that we as a species grow to a more spiritual existence is a matter of immense speculation and interest. Me? I'll keep an open mind and will continue to monitor events taking place as we head still more near this date key.

Lake Mungo DVD Review

There is something a little disconcerting on Lake Mungo, as much in the vein of the Blair Witch, less fine freaky project or perhaps more closely to the most recent activity Paranormal, except, well, you know, Australia. Despite fairly average performance, barely believable and sometimes messy interleaving story lines which did not correspond entirely neither were they fleshed out their full potential, Lake Mungo offers the sometimes compelling moment.

Filmed in documentary style, Lake Mungo traces the history of the family Palmer following an incident where Alice, girl girl, disappears, presumed drowned in a dam for a family day trip. While trying to treat their tragedy, unusual things first occurring in the family home. Strange noises are heard during the night, without a visible slam slam doors, and a mysterious unexplained presence resembling Alice appears in photos taken by the young son.

Enter Ray, a showy, the family went to so that they can take a sense of their situation. Ray is sincere in his pretending to be psychic, or as another charlatan? It is an aspect that is not beautiful explored, but his presence in their lives indeed a fairly minor impact to keep the story moving.

Slowly, Alice life exhibits are show found footage, log entries and mobile phone diary and visit Alice school camp at Lake Mungo where Alice secrets finally are us.

Lake Mungo resembles some interesting ideas of paranormal but not with enough depth to really at heart what it tangible. Of same, grief can feel the shadowed family more inaccessible, detachment of the history of sympathy that the public may have involved characters. However, it is imperative to watch secret life discovered Alice piece by piece. And much of how a good thriller, the gradual build-up of suspense by allowing the public to follow crumbs little information little by little keeps you interested enough to keep your attention.

Whether or not it cash that in the end, unfortunately I do not think. You can get an "oh who was a little creepy" before you check if there are chips left in the bag (* note: no, it is not). Some photos at the beginning of credits may extend this insidious sense of minor fears for a few moments too, so keep an eye for those.

As long as you think too hard or wait too, Lake Mungo is fairly easy weekend viewing.

Film critic "Run For Your Life".

The chronic "run For your life" film of the life of Fred Lebow, who was one of the most influential people a road racing and the marathons of the great city of the public consciousness. Fred founded New York City Marathon in a time where the city really need something positive and was one of the catalysts for the revitalization of New York.

He began his career running in the fashion industry of clothing scratched low-priced sales. In the 1960s, with the rise in crime rates in the Bronx, he popularized running and racing in Central Park.

He started the Marathon in New York City, first as a loop of Central Park, then as a course run in all five boroughs of New York City and has transformed into a major media event each year.

I loved movie "Run For Your Life", which tells the story of Fred. The first 2 to 3 minutes are very slow and music is very in your face and forced, but once the story moves beyond generally running and starts to focus on the life of Fred and his contributions to the sport he became very endearing. Essentially, once you past that initial minutes of music did a good job of putting the mood of a scene without calling attention to itself.

The film has two things extremely well, and has been the use of old video footage and photos.

It's really cool to see actual footage of the majority of events have taken place, especially for the first race of the marathon throughout the city.

Use of photographs was also well done, often seeming to be more video footage while it stills. Photos took a life of its own, as they were on the screen.

Of the film, there are shots of political cartoons of the day headers and journal and articles flashed on the screen, that give you a good sense of time and of how the world has reacted to Fred and his race.

Many of the interviews were filmed for the film, but there were also interviews Fred of recent years and other personalities who were featured in the film. I particularly enjoyed some of the races live news coverage, especially blooper Bill Stewart then attempting to describe line arrival and Fred mocking Tom Brokaw for finishing does not a marathon, while his wife.

If you see the projection of moving to a theatre near you, I recommend to check on rent or purchase a copy at home.

Calvin Marshall-2009

Film of the day: "Calvin marshall" gaze fixed Alex Frost, Steve Zahn and Michelle Lombardo.

Length: 1: 33: 06

Review date: 09-24-2010

Rating: 7.00 (has a great movie with some great acting components from literally all however, feeling I left most wanted).

Review: I will not say like most films, I never usually read reviews before I look at, so I can really get a feel for the film, as he comes to me off the coast of the screen and let my emotions this time really "feel the time" I am. As I am sure that watch us movies to get enjoyment and you leave really be absorbed as though you are right in the movie. The best ones all do it for you.

This "Calvin marshall" movie has been like that for me, is a former ball player identified by the Court of the great and knee problems never me y. This is the inverse of Calvin Marshall played by Alex Frost, a guy who does not appear to have talent, never ever get to the game but has a heart that truthfully too gave never get there. It is a story of life and how we flow with choices come to us and the time in our lives we feel confident in something (because something else in our lives was unexpectedly super well which flowed our confidence in everything else, we were doing). Isn?t the moral is that we never know what is going to be just around the corner that can make just as energized the right to life as we.

Steve Zahn has played a major role (really), but still coach mean, ex Ball wonder guy turned drunk loser every evening, was my judgment of staff because it is in all her other roles simply too nice a guy after all issues with coaches and sexual assault against players lately, I liked him but just didn't not role, I thought that the script may have improved his someone bigger would have given us a good movie feel more work, his scenario was a disadvantage which this film could have been the high 8-9 (which, in my reviews, is nearly 10).

The new daughter Top Volleyball "girlfriend" performed by Michelle Lombardo was brilliant. She was not only refreshing look and see that it was the ideal person for role really shine, I have never personally seen her before, but with his acting, I'm sure it is going to get some great future roles. And of course, I is an expert in beach volleyball and one of the best players in school and in sports is your grand or anything, so I felt really pushed advantage adrenaline film me watching.

However, I felt adrenaline and I was hoping it would be were substantively permeate on Calvin Marshall, but it is not really and therefore my only disappointment for this he was has given me a different outcome and then I was hoping for but it is really what it was on... in preparation for not always get exactly what we really want and the great person transform us in anyways.

Across the Pacific's DVD Review

The Pacific DVD set as a compilation is just breathtaking. We all take our TV viewing for granted these days, but just sometimes something happens really stands out and leaves you with a real sense of being there and feel involved characters and I must say that you must be quite hardened not to immerse yourself completely in this particular journey.

OK, so there was a number any stories in World War 2 and some really were quite spectacular, but I'll paste my neck here and say I've never been anything quite like this before. In collaboration with Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, they have created a masterpiece.

Across the Pacific DVD tells the story of three specific marine concentrating on their actual, individual experiences during the conflict with the Japanese in World War 2 by a combination of real events and personal experiences in innovative ways.

I have never been personally to the combat, and could never imagine or totally understand what it must be like, but through three marines, Robert Leckie, John Balisone and Eugene Sledge and some graphic scenes, you begin to realize some of the debilitating war not only physically but psychologically too.

With a number of World War 2 veterans fighters present on disk 6 horrible sharing and graphic memories all backup stories already seen, and if you doubt the authenticity and then these brave men will put you right back there with them and you do feel very humble.

You can really see how terrible fighting was against an enemy whose mantra has always been dead before in disgrace, which makes it an extremely brutal and relentless adversary.

Not only that but, with impenetrable forests as the field of battle, taking on this fanatic enemy conditions were far from ideal being doing hell on the day the day on Earth. Thus, these men were pushed physical and mental limits.

Episodes cover all aspects and influences of this brutal conflict that see us the characters at home, to leave and away from the battle field too. But with powerful performances of half hungry soldiers exhausted trying to fight in the torrential rains and the fight against malaria too it is difficult not to feel their pain and their raw emotion.

If the Pacific DVD set was a book for one certainly could not put the beginning to the end of such is the power of the drama that unfolds before your eyes, totally convincing.

Scott Pilgrim Vs World Review

I tend to not see movies more than once, as I tend to not read books, I liked more than once, but Scott Pilgrim vs the world is certainly the exception. I know that this film is a few weeks ago may be leaving many theatres already, but I wanted to share my thoughts on this great work. I've been a fan of anime, manga, video games and Michael Cera long, therefore when together you them all as director Edgar Wright, you bet your sweet ass I'll be there.

Honestly Scott Pilgrim vs the world starts a little slow, cuts seem a bit awkward and everything that is fairly abstract sense until the initial confrontation with the first evil ex-boyfriend. Michael Cera plays once more to its range, remote and indifferent, but there is a little cockiness and thrown frustration in which he shares this time with his other films. Kieran Culkin is by far the best player in the Group and I am confident that it will shed light on some additional roles in the future simply based on its performance in this film. Playing Scott roommate, it tends to drive most of the humor in the film.

Ramona, played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead, is probably the least interesting in the movie, and I almost feel that she could have played by almost any actor in the same direction. A strong influence on the plot, it is surprising that it just ends up as a trophy, a carrot on a stick for the hero to hunt. Choice of casting, such that now famous ex girlfriend Scott envy and former lover lesbian of Ramona Roxy are so similar to be a little confusing for the Viewer. I am a big fan of Jason Schwartzman and it gives an unfortunately short but great performance as the leader of the League of Evil EXEs. I was so inspired by his style in this film I was immediately released, and I bought some glasses correspond to those that it sports here.

Everything from bass Richenbacher Scott plays in the film for Zelda T-shirts and super combo finishes are thrown about during duration, talking to fans of game and anime so no other film has this decade. It is clear that Edgar Wright is a real fan of the media presented and I wish that other administrators were so obviously passionate by their work. While some evil ex-petits friends are more interesting than others, all scenes of combat in the film are an absolute blast, and I honestly have never seen anything like this before.

My favourite places that I think really conveys aspects manga-like the film, is the meeting socially tense between Scott and Todd, Telepath vegan master. Break tension Scott Air for Todd in a rage, but the scene freezes, Scott is thrown on his feet with a small gesture of Todd, world goes black and we get a shot 2D howling fair Otaku. Things like this are throughout the film, and I invite everyone Scott Pilgrim vs the world experience at least once, because no other film live action comes close to this kind of style.

Band's is awesome with the film itself around Scott band sex Bob-Ombs, which are not only a clear Mario reference but actually accomplish many songs on the soundtrack. Most of the tracks featured indy-punk style that is suitable for the atmosphere of the film. Other groups presented here are Crash and the boys, metric and Beck, which I appreciate enormously, so do not hesitate to seek the soundtrack either.

Not to buy movies, I am not a collector, I just don't understand the point of need to materialize an experience, but it is a movie which I absolutely buy you on Blu - ray disc as soon as possible. This is something, I want to share with guests who have not yet seen, something, I want will revise from time to time, because it is this property, this unique.

Cité de l'Or critical film

The film is intended to show the fate of Mumbai, factory workers put out of business due to globalization. Factories have been closed for a long time and workers are still fighting for their right to privacy until today.

This is the theme of the film city of gold which depicts a painful story of people who live in the shadow of death with no source of income and no hope of the Government or the law.

Credible real life characters are through to us they wrestle pass every day. The film is able to connect with audiences through is painful slow building of history. A sad world of poverty and crime is displayed with great realism.

There are a few aspects which were more facts perhaps intentionally. Rabies kill ramp in young boys making a cynical angle and becomes sometimes comical. How they are shown killing people is complete madness.

It's a documentary adapted to cinema. Aim was well served, but he was awakened by any response from the media or Government is difficult to say.

But the problem is why viewers would like to see this film? Under no circumstances cited gold tries to entertain the public. You will leave the theatre with a sad mood nobody wants today.

Film is honest and beautiful performances given by each player. The Director deserves most harsh environments featured.

Honest, although film done with great realism and wonderful performances but no easy posting to the general public.

Film review: the tourist (2010)

BOTTOM LINE: "The tourist" is a dull mess, deliver a warm, uninteresting story and witless major stars have no chemistry whatsoever.

Good:All films start with an idea and the idea of "the tourist" is actually a good. Angelina Jolie plays Elise, a beautiful woman who is towed to Paris by Scotland Yard who are after her former lover, Alexander Pearce. Elise receives a note from Pearce, saying a train for sure and choose a man which is similar in appearance to him to throw detectives off-piste. He began quite innocently but becomes much more complicated with the arrival of a British gangster who wants money back Pearce stole him. This type of plot in a story goes back to old-style movies that are rarely made more and beautiful images of certain European destinations, especially Venice, is a view in this film.

Bad:Given the talent involved, one would have to ask, "what they thought." The entire film falls flat on its low scenario and direction. There are so many possibilities of wit, action and fun, but they are not exploited in any way, shape or form. The film is quite dialog driven, and because the dialog is so inherently weak, it feels like an annoying exercise pedestrian. If the filmmakers had built the action (there is none) to compensate, the film was passable, but as they did step were, most of the film is spent watching the Jolie and Johnny Depp the playing by numbers nonsense inspirational or fun. Paul Bettany subpath: Scotland Yard hunting down Pearce Inspector could lead to some great moments, both in action and comedy, particularly with interactions with her boss played by Timothy Dalton. but this new is not operated. Parody wholesale is obviously that Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp have no chemistry on screen whatsoever. It's almost as if they acted independently from each other, and then a clever editor spliced together so that they could appear in the same time. Although this film must have sounded good on paper, "the tourist" is a complete waste of time.

Paranormal activity 2 review

Original Paranormal activity to be fresh and public reaction was almost as entertaining as the film itself. Documentary-style horror movies are nothing new of course. Blair Witch began the trend, and films such as the implementation of quarantine and Cloverfield have helped evolve the genre. Still, many film lovers generally love or these types of hate movies. While the original was a gem and staff favorite of mine, Paranormal activity 2 seems to have lost the original spark.

The first film written and directed by Orin Peli, was its first crack at making film. Actors from the original used their real names, and Katie Featherston and Micah Sloat were originally paid $500 for their work. The film was purchased by Dreamworks Pictures, which were then acquired by Paramount. I wanted to highlight these facts because I believe they are the cause of the issues of Paranormal activity 2.

Sport film a new Director and a small army of writers. There are two creative choices I think have been detrimental to the film. The first was the choice to include characters from the original in the suite. Conspiracy of the paranormal activity 2 runs concurrent with the original, and the main objective of this film is with the sister of Katie Kristi and his family. I was hoping that this film would itself disconnect the first film. Just persistence works.

Second madness lies in the use of multiple cameras. Intrigue manages this by implementing a scene where it appears someone introduced in house of Kristi and tossed about the family possessions, but nothing seems to be stolen. Reaction of the family is to have installed throughout the home security cameras. One reason I loved the first movie was it is "less is more" approach when it comes to shooting. Any mystery or the sense of suspense in the first movie is almost lost Paranormal activity 2, simply because the audience is shown throughout.

Paranormal activity 2 is a chore to watch. Film focuses much too heavily on its characters and not enough on the announced topic. The acting varies in quality. Kristi (Sprague Grayden) was the worst of the crew and her daughter, Ali (Molly Ephraim) the best. He y long extended no liveness, let alone that the paranormal variety. There are several attempts to what I can only describe as demographic gadget. The inclusion of children and, more specifically, a toddler, appeared to be a good market tactics aimed at improving the fears of parents in the audience.

For those of you who saw the first film in cinemas, one of the most memorable aspects of the experience paranormal were the reactions of the public. Woman cries, the heckling surpries by men and everyone asking if it was real that they saw fair. I can probably say public reaction was not yet a factor in Paranormal activity 2, I never heard a breath of someone else in theatre, and I don't think a single scene brings such a response. Dramatic points of Paranormal activity 2 can see from a mile away.

The film tries to also play strongly the aspect "is that true?" the horror of the documentary-style film. The film opens with a message saying "Paramount Pictures would like to thank the families of the deceased" and the film ends with a black screen, waiting to deploy credits up to five minutes have elapsed. Two paranormal movies are absolute fiction, and I find that tried so hard to keep the filmmakers made a hilarious mystery. I have not met anyone who believes that these films are anything but a fictitious production.

At this point, I hope that mussels franchise. I thought the original was genius, and I think that orin Peli deserves more credit for the film, instead of a written back position on the follow-up. Paramount Pictures made too many mistakes with the suite, and I think it's a perfect example of how not to handle a suite.

Teacher and Templar

Movies any time allow people to see life in screens. They depict large and small events of life become deep in many creative ways to express knowledge and heated emotions.

The public is concerned. Notice and critics cry ideas who, what and how. Everyone sees what is special.

When I got a few times and topics with Dr. Clodualdo del Mundo Jr. (who was renowned Professor Screenwriting), I felt so privileged because at least I felt his love for art. I was a student as surround in my hands a few pieces of good literature from him.

When I submitted a script – he said "you should write more and have natural sound dialogue." He loved how I rated the movie "gladiator" and talked about. He was generous when he sees how an art student works hard and gives its best. And he was not happy when students are not serious with their projects.

Well, it was well beyond writing conferences, but I discovered in any form and aspect of life that when you love something, you have to work hard for it. It is not fair to close or partying "Is real work" and doing something like giving good results.

I know that I could do better, and I'm ashamed of me, when I realized how teacher pushed make us more and write more and I crammed my work.

He taught me more than this subject in writing. And then, I thank God and the teacher to do this. I know that God would make payments to anyone who would sweat and shared.

Watch RNA: Templar

Magnusson is part of the powerful Folkung dynasty in the mid-12th century. He grew up in a monastery belonging to the Cisterians. He is trained in archery, sword and riding by a former Templar who reside in the monastery. When RNA left the monastery and returned to his family, he was soon has the Sweden in the struggle between powerful families, all fighting for the Crown of the young nations.

Templar stars Joakim Natterovist, Sofia Helin, Stellan Skarsgard, Simon Callow, Vincent Perez and Bibi Anderson. produced by Don Enrico. Peter Flinth is the Director.

Full of action, suspense and a scenario of war history: history affects what a true Warrior is. It shows how strong and could be based on principles of heroes. Battles are won in unity and death ends with coming home to the well-beloved forever. And as for everything: we just God.

DVD Review - OSS 117: Cairo, nest of spies

In 1955, is the film that does what Austin Powers franchise couldn't: he managed to usurp the spy genre while remaining true to the form of classic espionage films.

Jean DuJardin stars as Hubert Bonisseur of bath, agent OSS 117. Performance of the DuJardin is absolutely brilliant. Agent OSS 117 looks suave and sophisticated, but under his tux fashionable beats the heart of a fool well intentioned, but not least. Assignment in Egypt, moments after his meeting, he manages to insult her (beautiful Berenice Bejo as Larmina El Akmar Betouche) contact by bursting into laugh in disbelief when she said that more than one million people speak Arabic. "Silly girl, do you know how much is a million-!" Insults do not stop there. OSS 117 is clearly a man with unusually high self-esteem and some of the best comedy moments arise from his overconfidence.

This travesty hits right notes, Western colonialism eye blink and our sexist past. Clueless racism is also endowed fun at, as OSS 117 Egyptian foreman asked, his work as a "cover" as an importer of chicken how many children he has "Eight, nine?" investigation, his voice dripping with concern and sincerity.

The action sequences acted as human right in this film and the choreography for fight scenes were nice to look at, but one of the best surprises this film was its cohesion. Most parodies are a string of jokes loosely bound together create a movie, but "OSS 117: Cairo, nest of spies" feels like a complete film. Much of the credit has to go to DuJardin; willingness to make an ass full of itself a key element in the success of this French comedy.

Step Brothers - a comprehensive review of film

Step Brothers is a film released in 2008. It was a little funny, mediocre, comedy starring Will Ferrell and John Reilly and directed by Adam McKay. The inspiration for the story came from Ferrell and McKay.

To give you a summary, Brennan Huff and Dale Doback are two losers with no password for them in their lives. They have many grandis ways children without important skills or direction in life.

Things take a radical for both change when their single parents meet. After a hot and sizzling love story, the parents choose to marry and move together. Brennan Huff and Dale Doback suddenly are half-brothers.

Initially, the duo hates the other guts. They cannot stand the sight of one another. However they begin gradually to find commonalities and start to like one another. They realize that they have the same tastes in books, movies and even women.

The film is funny and gets it public will from time to time. Of the movie there was very little moments where laughter was really a laugh wound in the stomach. Most of the time the laughter came from semi-funny jokes.

As with most films "cheesy humour", most of the jokes you can see from a mile off the coast. Humor tends to be very immature rather than witty. That said, the film is very funny.

Step Brothers is a great movie rental if you want to spend a single night with a moderately entertaining film. It is certainly not a family movie or a modern classic and probably isn't a movie that you want to watch on a romantic date.

If you enjoy crass or top humor, brothers step could be for you. Is on the other hand, if you like humour did or more subtle, step brothers, probably not the movie you are looking for.

Development of the character in this film was actually pretty good. Interactions of the brothers were very well made, their humour works perfectly on the other. The rest of the family played their share as well. Many jokes play off the coast of interactions the dysfunctional family.

Overall, the film gets a 2.5 out of 5. The scenario is of average size. humor is decent if somewhat foreseeable or cheese. Throughout you'll probably walk from film suggests that it was a so banal good experience.

On the other hand, if you want a nice, relaxing comic scene step brothers can be a great rent. Many in the audience really loved the film and you could too.

Value True Grit (2010) - movie review

Don't look for the filming of the famous frozen final of John Wayne, waving his Stetson, horse breeding until both legs finished version of 1969 "true grit." That said, Joel, and of Ethan Coen remake of the classic Western "true grit" is hardly recomposed all fabric, 1969. Has abundance two films in common — the first being the basic plot. Fiercely determined 14 years old Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfield) articulated and mature, plans to capture killer his father, Tom Cheney (Josh Brolin) and bring them to justice. Perhaps, however, Mattie may have some revenge grave on his tenacious spirit.

Despite their capacity is Mattie knows that you need help, and it urges US Marshal "Rooster" Cogburn (Jeff Bridges) to help him find Cheney. Along the way, Texas Ranger the beef (Matt Damon) joined as it is followed by "lucky" Ned Pepper (Barry Pepper), including gang, Cheney has joined.

There is a stone to the new version - literal and figurative. John Wayne immaculate beige suede jacket is hard contrast more realistic grimy failures of the bridge. This is repeated, not only in the wardrobe of the characters, but their make-up and more so, their teeth. You can almost feel the characters in the 2010 version.

It is, as you may have heard, much darker than its predecessor of 1969. It is also more graphic. In a remarkable scene where Mattie meet snakes, for example: in the 1969 version, they are threatening, apparently waiting for her open-air. When found the Steinfeld Mattie they are encased in a body decomposing.

There is much to admire in this inspired remake. Performance is excellent (and this is to compare work Bridges the performance citizen by Wayne). Much was predicted for the then 22-year-old Kim Darby (and yet it never another movie of note), but hope that isn't the case for Steinfeld - it would be quite tragic if it did not continue in the profession. An extra dose of reality is portrait to Damon's the beef, the role played by Glen Campbell. At that time, Campbell was already a superstar and Grammy winner in the country and pop categories and appeared in two movies, but history would be "true grit" is known (and best) movie to date. Campbell has good ' ole boy persona performance, giving the beef one dose of goofiness that seemed a little off for the movie. Damon the beef was not without humour, but there is a credible strength to him.

Genre, music is just one of the stars of the film. There where legendary Elmer Bernstein placed many upbeat, almost "car" music, accents Carter Burwell opts for an opulent score suitable for the time period and many course, for the film. Gospel songs layer depth of music, which includes songs by Iris Dement.

Ultimately, for all the similarities of the original, the Coen brothers have done a film felt deeply that resonates long after that the credits roll.
