Eat, Pray, Love(2010) review

Eat Pray Love - Review Director: Ryan Murphy Synopsis A married woman realizes how unhappy her marriage really is, and that her life needs to go in a different direction. After a painful divorce, she takes off on a round-the-world journey to "find herself". I didn’t really hear much about this film before I went to watch it. I had seen a couple of billboards in the streets and thought I’d give it a watch. The film it self is a 2 hour 15 min of seeing Julia Roberts going through every conceivable emotion imaginable, trust me that’s a lot! I had not read the book which it (and most film now) was based on, so found it hard to watch the character of James Franco, which I personally found cringe worthy. Billy Crudup and Javier Bardem, were decent and nothing more then eye candy for the women. Ryan Murphy’s direction through out the film is very student like, you can tell he was experimenting a lot with different angles and some unconventional shots, to his credit some of it did work. A plus of the film was the cinematography; there are some beautiful visual images of Italy, India and Bali, as well as America itself. As well as that the character of Richard Jenkins was powerful and moving and was interesting to see him in a unique role which did steal the scene between him and Julia Roberts. Overall I would say that this was a distinctive trial by the director, in which he will learn a lot of what not to do next time. The mismatch of actors and story crammed into 2 and bit hours, clearly indicates that turning books into films is still a long way away from becoming a successful transition. 6/10 – being generous Muni

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World(2010) review

Synopsis: Scott Pilgrim's life is so awesome. He's 23 years old, in a rock band, "between jobs," and dating a cute high school girl. Everything's fantastic until a seriously mind-blowing, dangerously fashionable, roller blading delivery girl named Ramona Flowers starts cruising through his dreams and sailing by him at parties. But the path to Ms. Flowers isn't covered in rose petals. Ramona's seven evil exes stand between Scott and true happiness. Can Scott defeat all seven of the bad guys and get the girl without turning his precious little life upside-down, before the game is over? Where to start with this film...never have I been so impressed with a film as I was with SPvTW. From the outset to the very second the credits begin to roll, I was snagged onto this like a hooker on crack. The comic-book style visuals were the effin' icing on the freaking cake. Throughout this imaginative, dazzling effin' thought-provoking thrillride, I felt pushed up against a wall by Tyra Banks then Tyra banks gets her head kicked in by Hulk Hogan. Imagine that feeling. I felt that. it felt great. I know I mentioned in my last post for the Due Date trailer that stars such as Zach Galifianakis and Will Ferrell have been typecast because of the way they portray their characters in the films they star in. There are a few exceptions, in this case, Michael Cera. There hasn't been a single film of Cera's which I didn't love. Sure, he has pretty much the same character in each of his films, but the way he adds a twist on each character is pretty damn entertaining. In this case, it was his a-hole side that was the comical factor here. The performances of each of the cast members here were simply charismatic, namely the Seven Evil Exes, including Chris Evans, who portrayed an a-wipe version of Johnny Storm, and Jason Schwartzman who played the 'boss' of the film. Cera along with M Elizabeth Winstead were absolutely riveting as the lead co-stars, and felt some real-ass chemistry between the two during the 'romantic' scenes. Loved this film, from start to finish, there was never a dull moment. 8/10
