Birdman - Or The Unexpected Virtue Of Ignorance - A New Film Report

My wife's uncle used to have a response when he was confronted with somebody's grandiose concern for some pompous proposal. He would chuckle and say, "It's a big cloud in a small rain." Such is this Birdman film. I hate to strike out on sincere directors and writers, who hold mortgages to homes and kids to keep in college, but it outrages me to have to sit through a film, which grabs me by the coattails, and insists that I stay through this rampaging noir of cry-baby bull-sh*t... I don't seek it nor do I care what it tells me anew. ...

ST. VINCENT - A New Film Report

Have you ever stood up after a movie-- where you have laughed a bit and choked up a little bit as well-- and then you slowly sense an empty range of feelings from having been duped by the way the film was produced-- to a hunch that it wasn't great? There's no question that a director can pull a small bit of wool over our eyes with movie scenes that may be sincere but don't stand the test of real film honesty. Such is how I looked at the overall effect of St. Vincent. ...

JIMI ("ALL IS BY MY SIDE") - A New Film Report

My humble guess is that John Ridley, the writer and director, just had to do a movie on Jimi Hendrix (come hell or high water) and would cease at nothing. Otherwise, how could this savvy director keep at it with less than a full script- particularly when the Hendrix estate heirs stood in the way of his using the iconic songs Hendrix fans so revered him for. Heirs spoiled it all... Yes, folks may be interested in the period that Hendrix thrived in-- while he lived in London (from nineteen-sixty-six/ nineteen sixty-seven); but it's the thrill of performance that lifts Jimi's guitar from earth to way up there. ...

GONE GIRL - A New Film Report

"No one loses money UNDERESTIMATING America's Intelligence." This quote came to mind as I began to report on the movie, Gone Girl, which has countless critics raving-- while I'm a bit saddened. America's Intelligence (our "Material" Intelligence") is the brightest, but when one speaks of our present "Spiritual Intelligence" I have to shake my head in disbelief. This movie does clearly show our material-superior ability to bring together the writer, Gillian Flynn; the director, David Fincher; two talented actors, Rosamund Pike and Ben Affleck; some great background music-- featuring Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross; and Jeff Cronenweth who filmed Gone Girl. It upsets me that this much talent would go to producing what is in essence a movie that reaches the lowest level of awareness that I've seen of late. ...

THE SKELETON TWINS - A New Film Report

I heard the other day that "Adolescence" now spans from twelve years of age up to twenty-eight years of age-- rather than from twelve years up to nineteen. If you doubt that, see The Skeleton Twins! You will believe it then. Meet two such folks: Maggie-(played by Kristen Wiig) and Milo (who is undertaken by Bill Hader)--playing strange roles. They're fraternal twins who grow up in a household where their father nicknames them The Skeleton Twins, and-- lest they fail to inculcate his negative reinforcement--is kind enough to add 'The Gruesome Twosome'. How's that for grooming kids' self-esteem? ...
