Julie & Julia (2009)
What a miss!
I had high hopes on this one and it sort of became actual after one of the original authors passed away recently.
The movie is an absolute bore. It lacks a good story, character, content and does not show any of the delicious French cooking.
The two books it is based on, are hideously intertwined and don't connect in any way. There's no presence in either era. The characters are loose and don't have any meaningful relationship with anyone else and the speech of the supposedly american main character is a speaking in this terrible high pich voice all the time. And then there is the laughter, omg.
Last but not least, you should watch a cartoon called Ratatouille which will have everything this movie lacks!
Mielensäpahoittaja Eskorttia etsimässä (2022)
Disappointing acting
This was my first movie of these 3 and my hopes were somewhat elevated thanks to the director even though Aki has always been more favoured by me.
But as soon as the familiar faces started to appear I was disappointed by the sheer acting or better, the lack of it.
The few women did best but their roles were too small to lift the movie. Maybe the characters were meant to be this dull, is probably obvious to the reader of these books. I have read whole 4 pages of the original gift book but had to quit due to the eternal repetition in it.
The storyline was ok with some earlier filmed ideas from Aki.
Un tè con Mussolini (1999)
Absolute waste of my time
I wonder who wrote the dialogue for this, it is so childish and naive throughout the film.
Acting is bad, voices with high british pitch, simply dreadful.
