Spirits?

Kiss Me Deadly. This movie was so confusing. A Sci-Fi film Noir? That doesn't make much sense. But on top of that you have a guy slapping old people in the name of justice, and an intro scene that makes it seem like this "b" movie is going to start playing some funky music and get real inappropriate. I had a look on my face like, well you probably know the look. Its just an empty stare, because I had no idea what was going on pretty much this entire movie. But in the end the movie was completely redeemed by the spirits inside the box at the end. It was pretty amazing, the spirits blew the house up and set a girl on fire. I just loved that ending.

Double Indemnity

I liked Double Indemnity, even though going into this movie I was convinced that all noir movies were silent. I thought it was entertaining and I liked the films style of telling us the main character was doomed but some how drew us in and rooting for this doomed bad guy throughout the movie. I really thought some of David's actions were really awkward, like his line 'baby' it didn't seem as smooth as I'm sure he intended it to be, that and the way he squeezed his lady love. It looked like he was trying to crush her. Even with all of this the movie was still pretty entertaining.

Groundhogs Day

I've seen Groundhogs day a couple times and I've always thought it was a really good movie. Bill Murray does a good job of showing a transformation throughout the movie although its hard not to think that after enough torture by repetition anyone would change temporarily. You never know, he might have returned to the same jerk he was days after the movie ended. Either way I thought the movie was really funny and an overall good romantic comedy.

Slinging Up Baby

Well, before I start my post on this movie let me just say I LOVED this movie! That is, I'd love to have the original copy of this movie destroyed. But all sarcasm aside this movie was probably one of the most frustrating movies I have ever watched. I thought the movie was entertaining in some parts but the acting of the main actress was way to over the top and gave me a headache almost every single day. The guy in the movie just made me shake my head and I couldn't believe how much of a spineless tool he was. On the bright side it was almost cute how they both fell for each other. But in the end all this movie gave me was a headache.

Once Upon A Time

Once Upon A Time In The West was a good movie in my opinion. A lot of the characters were really deep and it was cool how they all were completely different and had their own stories but it meshed together to make the movie. I liked the fact that we did not know a lot about Harmonica as the audience until the final face off with Frank. I liked how both the protagonist and the antagonist are close in personality but some how end up motivated in different ways.
I also like that JIll is not the traditional western woman like we saw in My Darling Clementine it was nice to get a break from that and have her with some solid character. Overall I thought Once Upon A Time In The West was a really good western that did well because of its strong story and good characters.
