Movies to reconsider :::: 'My Blueberry Nights', 'Hero Wanted', and 'Revolver'
As of late there has been a rampant array of movies hitting the shelves that had a short theater life or did not see the popcorn vendor at all. Movies that are great in comparison to the market, shelved into. Is it me or are we stuck in some sort of twilight zone, where movies that actually carry substance will not make it past the first week? Why are really cool films being overlooked? I do not know the whole answer to that as of yet, but I know that there are some things at play, that's not right.
In the past four years alone movies such as Revolver, My Blueberry Nights, Hero Wanted, have captured the eyes of many enthusiast. However found themselves slipping under a virtual radar of sorts. My hope is to shed light on these stealthy films of great art. Forget the critics, they suck, they do not have a clue and I am beginning to think that they get paid to say, what they say. Think about some of the films, they gave away stars to, or thumbs, that should have went up their asses.
First I would like to touch on Revolver staring; Jason Statham, Ray Liotta, Andre Benjamin of outkast, and Vincent Pastore. Now do not let the cast of this film fool you. It is not some lame attempt to fuse Hip Hop, Gangsters, and a Englishman that can kick ass and take names. What you see is not what you always get, and this film gives you minute after minute of surprises that can not be ignored. There is no kicking ass with fancy foot work, or slick slang from the streets, or lame gangster bravado. This film give you a thick offering or mind boggling riddles, and slick styling, that only Guy Ritchie can offer up. I would like to tell more but then I will begin to give away far more than I plan to. However I can leave you with one thing on this film, do not sit to close to that which you can not see.
Second I Would like for you guys to take a look at a love story that sneaks up from the rear and steals your heart, and rebirths your imagination. In its raw presentation, you receive a film that opens the mind to the possibility of love. In my life time I have come to feel that we are truly six degrees away from the truth. If only we take the time out to open our eyes and slow down. However how is that possible when all that we have to do, needs to get done, now? That I do not have the answer to. However I can tell you one thing, the journey can be shortened if you opens not only your eyes, but you heart. So I say ’My Blueberry Nights’, offers this short trip to enlightening your mind on the subject of love. What you take from it is up to you, but I guarantee you, if you have a heart, something will be with you long after that DVD stops spinning. I guarantee you that, Jude Law and Norah Jones will blow you away.
Third and not least, we have a action filled film, lined with a mystery and love, that causes me to ask the question, why is this film under the radar? Just as the other two films, I was taken away, into a world, that was unlike my own, but I was able to comprehend what was going on beyond the images. ‘Hero Wanted' offers up something that I can not begin to describe.This film is filled with the mystery of the persons heart and true intent, clouded by a past that only can be revealed in a series of events. Cuba Gooding Jr., offers up a film, and in my opinion, some of the best acting, to hit this market in a while. Then again I am sucker for decent scripts, and this is more than a decent portrayal of words sprawled across the page. Lets not forget Ray Liotta burning up the script, with his brand of acting that is slowly creeping back up on us.
Trailers:
So in close head this is my must see list for this month. If you do not see these films you are doing your fetish for films a great disservice and nothing good can come of it. See these films then come test me, by letting me know what you think.
