A Serious Man
I normally hate comedies, but I saw that this was supposed to be dark comedy so I gave it a try. The characters really worked, and actual
thought was put behind the script. Even made me giggle a few times. Then when I got to the end and all of a sudden saw the tornado coming toward the kid, I realized I had absolutely no clue to what the hell this movie was all about. But once I looked it up on the internet it all clicked, but to me having to go research the ending detracted from the impact. Maybe I'm simply a dummy and you guys wouldn't have that problem.

Trainspotting
So I've heard a lot of hype about this movie. Maybe I was expecting too much. I was dissapointed. Heroin addicts acting like heroin addicts getting clean then acting like heroin addicts again then eventually self-destructing or getting clean again. It didn't excite any of my senses really, just wore me out. Wasn't
terrible by any means though.

Amelie
Beautiful. Heard the soundtrack first and loved it so much I had to watch the film. It had everything I want. And so different. The subtitles didn't bother me a bit. Maybe a tad bit on the girly side. I mean its not really something I would sit down and watch with my old man but that doesn't change the fact that it is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time.
I want to live in Paris.

Lonesome Dove
My brother loaned me this and told me it was the greatest thing he had ever seen. Well I have a different opinion. Pure sh
it. If I thought Tommy Lee Jones is an arrogant bossy loud mouth before I saw this I can't even put into words how I feel about him now. For christs sake give it a rest you old jaw bone! This movie is nothing but one one-liner after another all the way from Texas to Montana. Don't spoil a good Western collection with this turd.
