Even More Movie Reviews Part 2

The Matador
A very good dark comedy. But to be honest, it was just average until the last 10 minutes when a couple plot twists makes the movie rewarding if you paid attention. The sexual content sort of ruins the movie because there's like 1,000 innuendos and a few "sex" scenes don't help the movie at all. It was kind of like, "Okay I get it, Pierce Brosnan's character's a sex addict." But the acting is good and the chemistry is pretty good. Beautiful locations and some really good comedic moments.





Brokeback Mountain
A very excellent film. The nature scenery is amazing even though those scenes were shot in Canada. All the performances are awesome. But the reason why Jake Gyllenhall's performance is good because, like most of the other movies he's in, it's really over the top. Over the top to the point of laughter with such lines as "I wish I knew how to quit you." The story is very good, especially at getting you to think about certain choices you have made in your life or will make. The only thing the movie scuked at was making the young actors look older since the movie spans 20 years. All they did were put wigs on the eand mustaches on the men, not really convincing. I read the Rolling Stone review afterwards and they pointed out what is so good about it and I agreed, I can't remember what it said though. It's nominated for Best Picture, which it does deserve. But I'm rooting for the movie Crash myself. If it makes you feel better, there's more gratuitous heterosexual sex than homosexual. Overall, I wasn't disappointed cause I knew it would be good.




Waiting
This movie, I don't know where to begin. I describe it as a movie you watch with your friends just to waste time. I don't care for the cast except for Ryan Reynolds cause he's good in every movie he's in even though he plays the same character in every one. The rest of the cast sucks. The story is stupid. The gross out humor lost me on this one. It's like a really bad independent movie that has nothing memorable about it cause like I said , it's a time waster. This goes in the book of crappy comedies next to The New Guy and Scary Movie. So I only recommend it for perverted retards who laugh at every thing. The only thing that could of saved it is frontal female nudity, not lower. I rented it for free and I'm still pissed.
