Inception (2010)

One of the best

[10/10 · 24 July 2010]

I have never been a SciFi fan and have also never seen a C. Nolan film, apart from the Dark Knight two years ago, which I found OK, but not overwhelming (don't kill me). I, however, think that Leo di Caprio is one of the finest actors ever, and probably the best of this generation. So I usually go to see all of his movies, independent of the genre.

Inception literally made me sit on the edge of my seat. This is one of the most exhilarating, exiting, touching, moving, mind-bending and eventually mind-blowing movies I have ever seen. Honestly, I saw it about three days ago and have thought about it constantly ever since. I am a big film fan and watch movies all the time, but this rarely happens. I will definitely watch Inception once or twice (or ....) more.

di Caprio is simply brilliant (and this will hopefully finally bring him the Oscar he has deserved for so long), as are all others, not one actor is a mis-fit.

As others here, I am somehow at a loss for words and cannot really describe how unbelievably terrific I find this movie - all I can say is: YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS MOVIE!!

Rabbit Without Ears (2007)

What a sweet movie

[9/10 · 3 April 2008]

I gotta admit, up till now I have neither been a big fan of Til Schweiger nor of German movies in general. But I changed my mind after watching Keinohrhasen. I simply loved it. Yes, it is completely predictable (what romantic comedy isn't?) and yes, there are a few inconsistencies and even some unnecessary scenes - but who cares?! The chemistry between Til and Nora is - surprisingly - just great, the story is classic, but so beautiful and I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard in any movie.

All in all, even though I'm not a big romantic, I was, to my own surprise, somehow very touched by this movie and I enjoyed it very much, I laughed, I cried, I sympathized - the perfect entertainment. I will definitely buy it on DVD.
