Fame

Since this movie came out, I had wanted to watched it, but I didn't have a chance until yesterday.
I am not a big fan of musical, but the trailer seemed very interesting to me.
It seemed there were a lot of dramas in the movie.
The kids are seriously impressive and talented.
And they have their own stories.
However, I felt the soties are kind of weak.
Each of them is very gifted person, as I said, yet nothing moved me just because this movie totally rely on their ability, I guess.
To be honest, the stories are normal life of the students who are talented and have hopes in the future, which might be what they intended to show us.
Their struggles are quite different from what we do, I think.
Maybe some of them have "closer" sense to us, yet they know they are not "ordinally" people.
If you like to watch musical or amazing perfomance you can watch in Step Up, you might like it, but I am not sure if it worth of watching only for that.
Anyway, I was kind of disappointed with this movie probably because I expected too much from the trailer.
It might be one of the typical exapmles that trailers are better than movies themselves lol

Hard Candy

It's been a while since I posted last one.

It doesn't mean I haven't watched any movies.

I was just a bit busy.

I am so sorry about that.

Anyway, about the movie!

As usuall, I had no idea what Hard Candy is about lol

I watched Whip It and was kind of curious what kind of movies Ellen Page has been.

I have watched Juno, Inception, and Whip It; however, all movies are tottally different.

Besides, she is from Canada, where I live now lol

So, I was curious about her carrer.

Hard Candy is filmed in 2005, so she was 18.

But she acts 14-year-old girl, which I had no doubt about it.

She looks really young in that movie lol

The girl she acts is totally wired though.

Since I did not know about anything about this movie, I thought this movie was about kidnapping.

The movie starts with chatting screen on computer between a young girl and a well-grwon up man.

But hell no! It was not about kidnapping!!

Well, kind of yes, but it is not what I expected at all.

The girl must have a reason for her actions, yet it is quite mysteryous.

Though I finished watching it, I am still confused.

What is this movie about...?

Who is she...?

I loved the camera work of this movie.

I don't think they spent a lot of money to make this film, yet the movies is quite exciting to watch without any special effect because of camera work.

Also Page did great job in the movie.

She is real phyco in this movie!

I strongly recommend to watch it if you don't mind having many questions afterwards lol

I bet it is pain to watch for guys though lol
