Haven't seen it, AF. But I hear she did well in that film. One of few dramatic role of hers.
Inglourious Basterds:Very very interesting film.Loved every moment of it except the climax in the cinema hall which I felt was a bit over the top and gimmicky and the twist regarding Col Landa turning a betrayer which looked too good to be true and inconsistent with his character.
Also minor cribbings like Shoshanna and Private Zoller speaking in English on film while he speaking german and she speaking french would have been more appropriate.
I was very impressed with Melanie Laurent playing Shoshanna-expressive face and pretty too and Christopher Waltz playing Landa.
As for Brad pitt,I loved his American drawl esp in his intro scene where he is addressing his gang.
The dialogues were sparkling,esp liked the one where Landa compares rats with jews.
There are so many racial slurs on both jews and Germans but QT pulls it off in such a way that it comes through as characters speaking and not the directors POV.
But 'symbol of democracy' India-le ippadi oru padam edukka mudiyuma?
BTW,why does QT make his films in chapters,volumes and parts? :D
:yes: a nice movie..Quote:

Colin Farrell :clap:
Meet Joe black - not bad.
In the name of the Father - Daniel Day Lewis - Freakin fantastic acting :shock: :clap: :clap:.
Mackenna's Gold (1969) :).
Frost/nixon (2008) - Good. Both the actors are very good. Especially Nixon 8-).
Cloverfield: okay movie. Carried away by too much of +ive reviews.
Kramer v/s Kramer: Pretty Good. Dustin Hoffman was too good. Meryl Streep was beautiful and her performance in last 20 minutes was effective.
American Psycho: Okay movie. Patrick Bateman motive is not clear, atleast to me. Too many open points:
1. Motive of Bateman is not clear
2. When Bateman confess to his lawyer. Lawyer doesnt believe on what Bateman says :?
3. What happens to the investigation on paul allen :?
The entire plot happens on his head (atleast for me anyway). He is a soulless, cold hearted human being and gets paid so much to do nothing. It's a mixture of condemnation of yuppie culture and the Nietzsche ideology (morality kills?).Quote:
