You Don't Know Jack; Needs Some Knowing

Do you see that smirk? Sardonic smile you say? Yes that is the master of the arts himself, leader of the mafia (well at least in the movies) and star of one of the old films that I really like (Dog Day Afternoon), Al Pacino. He ain't doin' the accent on this film nor is he making an offer you can’t refuse, this movie is a melodramatic almost black comedy with a touch of freehand camera movements and sensitive issues of the right to die. My oh my does Al Pacino act like he lived Jack’s life in You Don't Know Jack.

I would like to applaud HBO for adding another great movie in their already long roster of awarded films including Real Women Got Curves and Something the Lord Made which are all just so amazing. This one of course is a movie that not everyone will be comfortable to watch. If you happen to like movies that open your mind then this movie is for you. It is centered on the life of the infamous, or at least in the US, Jack “Dr. Death Krevorkian”. Dr. Death, as the name implies, supports and has done a few patient assisted suicides. He was once discussed in our psychology class and because of that I had a spurt of interest on this guy. He once posted on an advertisement, “Want to Die A Dignified Death? Call Dr. Krevorkian.” Now that is customer pulling advertising! I need not tell you about the story and everything, but I am sure you must know this movie and watch it. Susan Sarandon fans you are in for a treat as the veteran actress once again becomes stunning because of her versatility.

The joyful theme while death approaches the patients kicks in a little bit of cunning atmosphere and a light feeling of letting go (fade away). Now that is MANICOMIO!

I am giving it full blast 5 popcorns and a drink. POPSSSSS and SIZZLES!

Best Time To Watch: When you finally decide that you want a better outlook after stressful events like break-ups or failed exams. You can move on with the film. Just ask Jack how. *wink

Movie in a word: Death.

Easy A; Not So Easy, its a Chick Flick with an A+

I know someone who watched this movie in the cinemas and so I decided to give it a try. Emma Stone is a new name in lead roles and if I am not mistaken this is her first.

I saw this young lady in House Bunny and in one point I kind of mistake her for Emma in Glee, the used to be super famous TV series now turned OK its just Glee.

Note: she is sexier in this movie.

Emma is not the first to dedicate herself to high school issues such as bulleys, virginity and raging hormones following the footsteps of Lindsay Lohan and Bea Alonzo. (DUH, JUST KIDDING).

I like the part where she actually searches for CHIVALRY. Defining the platonic movies of the 80's where everything was cheesy; from love scenes to dance moves.

I remember my chemist teacher would always say, "Where is Chivalry?", when all she wanted was to have her bags carried to the next room. Histrionic things, manicomio likey.

I have to say that the movie is a good watch. Its funny, not in a situational kind of way, but Emma's Character, Olivia (insert funny last name here), is very entertaining. Her views, her ideals and her sarcasm. Something that the manicomio really really love. Sarcastica, where are you?

I give this movie 3 popcorns. POP POP POP.

Best Time to Watch: When you suddenly feel that people are talking about you because you got weird looking glasses or you have not been changing socks for so long.

Movie In A Word: Witty.
