It is Love Actually sans charm, a wisp of a confection with little depth, and a gaggle of very talented actors portraying characters who are kind of cute and maybe occasionally funny but whom you will, for the most part, not really give a shit about because the film doesn't take any real risks.]]> http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/06/valentines-day-2010/feed/ 0 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/06/the-greatest-2009/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/06/the-greatest-2009/#comments Thu, 17 Jun 2010 03:09:17 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=686 The Greatest is an excellent example of how melodrama can and should be done.]]> http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/06/the-greatest-2009/feed/ 1 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/leap-year-2010/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/leap-year-2010/#comments Wed, 21 Apr 2010 18:26:41 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=603 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/leap-year-2010/feed/ 4 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/its-complicated-2009/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/its-complicated-2009/#comments Sat, 17 Apr 2010 14:38:44 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=583 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/its-complicated-2009/feed/ 1 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/catch-and-release-2006/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/catch-and-release-2006/#comments Sun, 11 Apr 2010 15:10:20 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=557 Catch and Release is that it's melodrama. While I have a lot of issues with the genre, I can't necessarily hold them against this movie in particular as one small part of a bigger problem. What I can do, however, is point out the problems that are inherently its own.]]> http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/catch-and-release-2006/feed/ 0 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/bright-star-2009/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/bright-star-2009/#comments Mon, 05 Apr 2010 15:16:59 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=533 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/bright-star-2009/feed/ 3 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/monsoon-wedding-2001/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/monsoon-wedding-2001/#comments Sun, 04 Apr 2010 15:57:25 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=529 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/monsoon-wedding-2001/feed/ 0 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/the-answer-man-2009/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/the-answer-man-2009/#comments Sat, 03 Apr 2010 03:57:45 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=521 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/04/the-answer-man-2009/feed/ 0 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/03/bonnie-and-clyde-1967/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/03/bonnie-and-clyde-1967/#comments Tue, 30 Mar 2010 02:36:26 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=500 Bonnie and Clyde, I think you have to understand its importance to American cinema.]]> http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/03/bonnie-and-clyde-1967/feed/ 0 http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/03/guess-whos-coming-to-dinner-1967/ http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/03/guess-whos-coming-to-dinner-1967/#comments Mon, 22 Mar 2010 03:40:02 +0000 Anita http://filmikaze.com/?p=466 Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? before, but apparently if I had it was long enough ago to forget everything about it. Regardless, I'm glad that I had the occasion to watch it today, because it turned out to be a surprisingly poignant and thoughtful film rather than the opinion piece and top-heavy morality tale I expected.]]> http://filmikaze.com/index.php/2010/03/guess-whos-coming-to-dinner-1967/feed/ 0
