Les invasions barbares (2003)
Death to learn to the future!
The inevitable death, change the equilibrium of a Canadian family. The family is pathetic and only a strong fact can change it, like the barbarians invasions did to Rome and 9/11 does to nowdays world. Here it's the cancer of the dad that brings all the friendship and the family to think about life more than death. Loving the life isn't easy and everyone has a different point of view, this movie try to understand what this world can change the relationships in fact so important like a death. It's not a sad movie, it's a comedy and touching adventure inside the human mind, the movie doesn't give rules and search between the last century the reason of this world that doesn't give time to love the life. Great actors and good plot leave may questions to the viewer but leave even a wonderful emotions layghs and crys. If you are not believers of the patrioct act and aboout the nationalism o f the fear you will have the opportunity to appriciate a great different movie (let matrix pass over you!!!) about life. (vote 9/10)
Ricordati di me (2003)
A moralist view of family, in Italy of years 2000
The plot it's not so original. If someone saw "L'ultimo Bacio" there's nothing new. A wealthy family in Rome living everyday life that's is boring and false, with everyone asking to others what they think about them. Really boring after an half of hour because it's simple to understand where the story is going to finish. This because it's simple to see the moralistic view of Muccino in this movie, so even the hardest parts seem normal. To summarise in the first 2 minutes of the movie it would be enough and the aim of the movie were already said. the family saw from a 30 years old, i don't like to see movie that want to show the reality but for be coherent to his thoughts has to push more than the normal the situations. Really good how Muccino put the camera in the right place moving with the carathers and it's the only reason that bring me not sleeping in the cinema though always in the movie scream from the begining. Perhaps it could be good to see the family how they are in reality and not put the blame to something out of it. Morante was intense and great as usual but unfortunatly on a bad movie!
Gangs of New York (2002)
EVERYTHING ON IT!
It's long, but it's the time that it needs to explain everything that Martin Scorzese wants to show us. The hate, the love, the bad and the good, the violence of the streets and the violence of politics, racism and a country that is beging its history. The first half of hour it's great and it's unbelieveble. Daniel Day Lewis is so good that you can understand that the bad is not totally bad and the good Amsterdam is not so 100% good. Scorzese put you in a wild society that it's an unbelieveble mirror of our times, he bring us in Five points and you believe that the plot and New york's history is there but at the end we understand that we cannot see only five points in our life but even watching around to understand what's going on in all your country. So if you think only about yourself you would die in that time, hard to say now what it will happend to you... perhaps a day something will fall from the sky and we don't know what it is and for which reason they are falling down. Good to know that Miramax and Scorzese chose Cinecittà to do the movie! So we will see if in Oscar's night it will the movie of the year. Not for me anyway!
Pinocchio (2002)
Too much perfect?
Nothing to say about the movie... it's incredible, scenes, music ,actors everything... the plot is the Collodi novel and Benigni put it on the screen...no more, is like a present to Fellini and Collodi together, every word of the poem and every episode is on the screen as normally a kid used to imagine! The actors are the best on Italian scene and they are great, Benigni himself is the perfect Pinocchio. The guidelines that the society gives us we follow to be human and normal, Pinocchio is a Wood poppet and he breaks every rules when he sees them. The end for me is sad (like in the book!). But the shadow... It's a little bit boring like every fairy tail for kids, but it's at the same time wonderful and make you dream for a while than the plot follows perhaps too much the Collodi's novel and you already knows everything!!!! That's the problem, is PINOCCHIO 100%... if you like pinocchio u will like even the movie otherwise not! Roberto Benigni is magic more than in LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL (LA VITA E' BELLA). C ya.
