Love, wedding, marriage


I didn’t like the movie at all! Young successful marriage councilor gets married just before she finds out that her role models, for eternal love, her parents, are getting a divorce! Their sacred marriage wasn’t so sacred after all. She is crushed, tries to reunite her parents, almost losses her new beloved husband. The “curtain of perfection” is off and she is trying to contemplate that. At the end like all American movies all goes well, and fixes, because love conquers all, her mother forgives her fathers infidelity twenty years ago, she reconcile with her prince as well, ad all live happily ever after. :D 

Lauberge Espaniol


Film that shows you a way where ambition can lead you! Young graduate must go to Barcelona, through the program Erasmus, to be able to find the satisfactory job. He leaves his girlfriend home in Paris, (with the thought that he will be back soon and pick up where he left off), and throws into an adventure of his life. As he flies in the plane, crying about leaving everything he loves and knows behind, that there is a moment that he is not aware, a moment of leaving his old life for real behind. He will never be the same again; he can’t or will not go back to his old self ever again. He arrives, meets young couple at the airport that helps him to get on his feet, at the very beginning, when he is lost in the new world that he is momentarily placed. As the film roles, the young Erasmus will blend in, learn the town, language, customs, and they will in a time become not a strange but his own, a part of his new character, a part of who he is, and will become. He will lose his girlfriend naturally, have the affair of his life, party of his life, friends and experience the most bizarre situations; in short he will experience life. After getting back home, it will be impossible to continue as before. His knowledge is eternal, forever and priceless. He is Erasmus till life!

Ein freund von mir (A friend of mine) – 2006

German film, about a silent and meticulous young man, by the name of Karl, who is given a second job from his boss, just to make him realize how valuable he is. To encourage his ambition of becoming more and wanting to become more in life. There, he meets another man (Hans) that will change his perspective of life. He will become his best friend, and will release him of his own severity. At first Karl will hesitate about this new friendship, but then he’ll accept with arms wide open. They will briefly separate and fight, because of a girl, the same girl that he sees for the first time in a disco, before the second job. He will see he same girl later as his new friend’s girlfriend.  But true friends overcome everything, and they reconcile before he (Hans) gives him (karl) a blessing to go after the woman he loves, in this case Hans’s ex. 

Wild Target

British movie, in British stile (comedy in stile) :D Precise and old school assassin just before his 55-th birthday meets a woman so challenging, that he decides to guard her, instead of obey his clients and kill her. Along the way young man, comes along and becomes his apprentice. The second most wanted assassin, brutal and sadistic prick will come after them, and loose naturally. At the end, the girl (the wild target) will soften his resigned heart and become the mother of his child, the child that’s going to keep the family tradition and name in the future. 


Horrible bosses (2011)


Three best friends are gathering every night in the same bar, and complaining about each others bosses. One of them is a psycho, the other one is a female molester blackmailing her assistant to sleep with her, and the third one is a pure jackass, and a tool. The story culminates when the tree buddies after a horrible and worst day at the job possible, decide to kill their bosses. Comedy increases as they search “guidance” for how to kill them from a black man in a bar. :DD Somehow they unintentionally turn their bosses on each other, at least one of them, the psycho on the tool, and that is the right formula for getting rid of them. The third boss is taken care of sweetly, exactly the way she did on her employ.   


Bunraku (2010)

Group of unsatisfied young people, one samurai and the other cowboy, combine their knowledge of battle and will for revenge against the most vicious leader known to the world. They both are lead by family honor and hunger for righteousness. In a way the red army of Nicola (the vicious leader) reminds me of a battle between the east and west, and the fight for freedom that the capitalist counties always like to emphasize when they talk about “democracy”. So the vicious leader is exactly that, a man who keeps people under his control, a tyrant who suppresses and pours blood, all over the country, who keeps the poor people in fear just to rule. Nicola is also enriched with nine assassins which are obstacles that the two warriors need to vanquish, to get to him. Bartender plays the trigger person, who will join the two warriors together, lead them, and merge them with an army of like-minded rebels. The drifter (one of the revenges) at the end will see that to be able to kill the dark power (Nicola), will have to die himself as well, that, there is no revenge without any losses and consequences. Good always prevails if you have pure heart, at the end.

Step up 2: The Streets


Dancing and moving and inspiring staff, the story is old news, but the vibe of it it’s great. You just want to stand and dance after. Something like the first part (Step Up), smart talented individual that lives in a rough neighborhood gets a chance to study at one of the most prestigious dancing schools in NYC. Naturally the first step was getting in the school, with an explanation that that sort of talent and street dancing (which the eminent professors don’t even count as dance) can be used with hard work to become as the perfection they want to achieve. A dilemma in this young individual mind is growing, should she stay in the hood as faithful member of her dance group, or should she try and make it in the new environment, with new people, new ideas and more subtitle way of dance. She gets cast out, and even expelled from the school, as bed influence. The competition, called “the streets”, on which her ex dancing group is a five time winner in a roll, is the right challenge for her and her new school friends, not only to prove to herself to her ex friends, but also to prove to herself that she can make it all, no matter what. She wins, gets the respect back, and her way to school again.
