Nói Albinói, a review by Danae CassandraWhere We Are: Iceland wikipedia Overview:My Thoughts: This is the story of a bright, bored young man with lots of potential and nothing to do with it. His brilliant intellect is stifled by school, his dreams are suffocated by the isolation he is in. He meets the new girl in town, and for a moment in his life there is a bright spark and he hopes of escape. This is very much a character study of a brilliant, disaffected, isolated teenager and the life he is leading, drifting in and out of school, from one activity to another, unsure of where he is going, what he wants, or what the future will hold. Only sure that he wants to get out of here and do something. The cinematography choices enforces the isolated, lonely feeling - everything is white, blue and gray, snow and ice. Cold and bleak. Excellently done for this film. Recommended for lovers of art films. I enjoyed it, but it's not for everyone. Bechdel Test: Fail Overall: 3.5/5 (From Around the World in 86 Movies on July 28th, 2013) Blade, a review by Dragonfire
(From Dragonfire88's Alphabet Marathon on July 13th, 2010) The One Where It All Began: The Pilot Marathon, a review by DJ DoenaWhat's the show about? Dean and Sam Winchester are brothers. 22 years ago a yellow-eyed demon killed their mother. Since then their father has been on the hunt for all kinds of supernatural beings and phenomenon. Sam once tried to get out of the "family business" but after his father went missing and his girlfriend was murdered in the very same way his mother was he has rejoined with his brother. They fight against vampires, ghosts and everything else you dare not think about in the middle of the night. "Pilot" 22 years ago. John Winchester has to evacuate his son Dean and infant son Sam out of the house after something pinned his wife onto the ceiling and set her on flames. Present day. Sam has stopped hunting two years ago and studies at Stanford now. But suddenly his brother Dean stands in the door and announces that their dad has gone missing while being on a hunt. Sam agrees to accompany Dean on this one thing to find their father - only 'til Monday. My Opinion I was never really into horror stories, but shows like Buffy and Angel brought me closer to the topic and since I liked Jensen Ackles in Smallville's fourth season I thought to give it a try. And it's a great show. Except for the fact that there's a monster of the week every episode is totally different due to the very nature of the supernatural being. There's also an overall story arc that includes the yellow-eyed demon, fallen angels and the apocalypse. (From The One Where It All Began: The Pilot Marathon on September 2nd, 2009) |
