DVD Review "2"
Here it is guys DVD review of last weekend.
Watched 3 movies, reason why I watch 3 movies each weekend is that DVD shop only lets me rent 3 movies at a time.
1) CRASH
Now this is one hell of a movie. I mean this is the Movie of the Month for me... Amazing, It deals with a sensitive subject like racism and shows sides of it, I never thought existed. It is a complex movie, some might find it boring, but if you understand this movie, I can assure you will understand racism and its underlying reasons. Characters takes such turns that it will surprise you. Watch it NOW.
2) HITCH
Handbook for single GUYS, This is one movie every single guy should see, it is full of tips for guys on how to deal with
a) Approaching girl for first time
b) First few dates.
It is a comedy movie, not hilariously funny, but it has its moments.
Recommended for single guys.
Got a couple of wonderful quotes from it.
a) There is more to life than watching other people live it.
b) Life is not amount of breathes you take, its the moments that take your breath away.
3) HUSTLE & FLOW
I think Idea of this movie was great but story line kind of let it down and for some reason felt that writer was not bold enough to go deep into the subject and switched in the middle to less controversial subject. It started of well, and was down hill from there.
I am not saying that this movie is bad, what I am saying is that this movie had potential to be great.
If any of you gets offended by movie based on hookers, pimps etc then better avoid this one ( It has no nudity but has bad language).
Stay tuned for next DVD review, next weekend.

I'll have to look for it online than.
I got it at the house, you know, from the internet ;-) Even if it was in theaters I wouldn't see it here. I can't go to a movie knowing I'll probably miss something due to the censoring of movies. So I save my money and watch it at the house, for free and not having to battle the traffic or the crowds :-) Besides, this is a movie that probably won't make it to the theaters here in Qatar, even if it does, it'll be edited down to like 30mins, lol
What!!! When did Clerks 2 come out? Where is it in theaters or on DVD?
If any of you are Kevin Smith fans, I'd definitley recommend you see his latest. We watched it the other night and it was hilarious. I must say though, if you haven't seen the first one, do yourself a favor and watch that first. There's a lot of throwbacks that you won't get if you haven't seen Clerks.
Beast666,
Where do you rent your DVD's from?
Does anyone know if there is a rental place at or near City Centre?
Agree with you about Crash. A great film.
I bought V for Vendetta at the weekend, another really good movie. Politically interesting, plenty of action, humour and even some romance. Something for everyone.
It´s all about politics. For the real thing there is nothing like Cannes festival.
I take it you did not like those movies then?????
Everyone likes different things and i bet more people liked it then did not!!!
"that is why Crash won the Oscar for the best movie"..
Trash won the oscars because of the bush administration & jewish lobbies on the voters.
just to castout munich & brokback mountin.
just figures..how "freedom of experssion" really works on the US!
Agree with you Beast, that is why Crash won the Oscar for the best movie, all about it was great the story and actors, is crazy when you think that things like that happen in real life. +++AAA.
Agreed on Crash, it was a good movie. Been a while since I've seen it though. Hitch I though was pretty funny. Mainly because of Kevin James, he out did Will Smith IMO. I think he's funny as hell. What subject are you referring to in H&F? I didn't really like how it ended but I thought it portrayed what it was meant to.
