Real shocker for me first time I saw it. Not suitable under a certain age in my opinion. I like watching this from time to time just to get a “slap” and reset the way I regard some of the things around me. The actors didn’t have to try very hard, but the director did a smashing job. The story features 2 different types of drug addicts: the legal and the illegal ones, and puts them in parallel showing us, using sometimes explicit images, where you might end up in search of your fix. Also you might recognize some of the soundtrack.

It is probably one of the few well-known movies that hasn’t win any big award. It’s “The Beach” with Leonardo DiCaprio and it’s one of the actor’s biggest roles. Some people say that paradise has it’s price and in his way for finding the paradise island Richard meets a couple convincing them to travel with him. When he arrives on the island Richards finds out he must never speak about it or show the map. It is not a movie that will entertain you but it is a film that work for relaxing techniques.
Touching movie, wherever or whoever you are. Based on a true story, this movie is set for drawing attention. Some suburban american kid realizes we don’t actually need half of the things we own or use, and that the simple life, in raw nature, can sometimes be much more rewarding than the hassle and bustle of life in the city and the 21st century. I tend to agree with him, however the end becomes way to predictable beyond a certain point in the movie. Nevertheless the scenery is breathtaking and I would definitely watch this again.
I’m a fan of Brad Pitt just like most of us out there. But this just did not do it for me. It’s kinda predictable and you see where things are going. No strong scenes. I would recommend this to those of you who like soft sentimental movies. Benjamin’s condition is so out there, and the reaction of people to his illness is not the expected one. It’s OK once but that’s it. I really don’t get what’s all the fuss about except the performance of the actors.
I definitely regard this as one of my favorite classics. Huge cast featuring, among others, Al Pacino and Kevin Spacey. The story, is about one episode in the professional life of a group of sales men, each struggling to reach their own targets. Don’t expect visual or sound effects because there are non whatsoever. Watch it as you would watch a theater play and try to put yourself in each of the characters shoes. Anyway, it’s a classic so make sure you treat it that way.
Casino is the type of movie that you know you will enjoy just by looking at the actors. But then, later when you are actually seeing it, you realize that all this fuss about it actually makes sense. It simply has everything: casinos (obviously), mobsters, de Niro, money, sex, violence, drama, revenge, emotion and a damn good story. On my “go and see list”! Oh and as a piece of advice: watch it with friends – it increases the fun. That’s it! I’m done.
