1. In Her Shoes, 2005, with Cameron Diaz and Tony Collete as the two sisters. A surprise to see Cameron Diaz in a "serious" role. A very touching story, though maybe a drag to some. Good cinematography, and the way scenes were entwined skillfully to enrich and thicken the plot of the movie.
2. Their Eyes were watching God, 2005, Halle Berry. Hmm, the beginning and the end was good, the middle (long) was very boring. From the comments of other viewers, seemed as the book was very good, not the movie! Halle Berry was terrific in her role, regardless. Guess it was just the way the script was done (not good enough?), that made the movie a bit dragging. I almost slept (a few times) during that movie.
3. The four musketeers, 1974. I watched this many times before. Watched it again in DVD, only because I thought it was a new version. Got many good laughs out of watching it, for the movie was a real comedy though the main theme was real serious stuff. Interesting to see many famous and old actors actresses looked so young and beautiful in there. Of course, it was 33 years ago that this movie was first shown. Beautiful costumes in this movie!
4. Collateral, 2004, Tom Cruise. Interesting to see Tom Cruise being disguised as a middle age assassin. He did look very terrorrist in this movie. A bit boring in the first half of the movie, but became better at the end. The plot is not very convincing I think. How often do you hear of assassins who became attached to one of their victims, and decided to protect that specific victim? A few points I want to dissect and analyse, for I don't think it sounded right at all! In general, the movie is not bad!
