<span style="font-family: inherit;">It has been a while since I last posted in this blog, and is there a better way to revive it than to post the list that is overdue by half a year? Of course not...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Despite lack of posts, I have been watching movies, and I indeed have a list of those that I liked. I cannot say that I agree with 2013 Oscars to the fullest extent (I look at you, 12 Years a Slave), but I think I am more or less in line... Anyway, I digress, and here is the list</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1. The Great Beauty</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Melancholic, nostalgic and relaxed view on the current state of affairs through the eyes of disenchanted in life writer Jep Gambardella is the best film of the year by miles. It is pleasant to watch, it is full of wit and subtle understanding of life which brings answers to the unasked questions of the modern society on the backdrop of beautiful Rome scenery. A movie I will definitely re-watch in the coming years - not least because "roots are important"</span><br />

movie which was not received well during Cannes nevertheless found its way into
my personal list, and I don’t really understand the annoyance of critics with
this movie. I found the movie to be incredibly deep, with several layers of
meaning which are almost impossible to uncover. The camera work is probably the
best I have seen since Melancholia – every single frame is a piece of art,
carefully calibrated with colours thoroughly sourced. Yes, there are certain
overkills (I am talking about the torture scene), but no masterpiece is
possible without pushing the boundaries a little too far. And the fight scene is
still the best I have seen since the Matrix</span></span><br />

<![endif]--><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 12pt;">Pure
masterpiece in biography genre. I don’t remember when was the last time I was
watching biography and was so captivated by the dialogues, relaxed narration
and beautiful camera work. Oscar for the Best Actor to Daniel Day-Lewis
describes his work better than I could possibly do in this format. The ability
of the plot to keep attention of the audience despite very little action
happening on the screen surely is unmatched.</span> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-GB">This movie left
me absolutely blown away. Simplest concept was taken as the backbone to the
plot, but Cuaron managed to turn it into an incredible story of perseverance

It forces the audience to gasp in awe at the sight of astonishing special
effects and to hold their breath together with main characters. It feels like a
personal journey to space, leaving you devastated and happy in the end.</span></span></div>

and dreamy (maybe the correct word would be “nightmary”) story which has as
much ability to surprise (and quite possibly shock) as Only God Forgives. Mia
Wasikowska performs incredibly well; every scene with her is a pleasure to
watch. The plot is outright captivating, one of very few movies in 2013 where I
was truly wondering what will happen next. The final scene which so nicely
wraps up the conversion of India is truly a stroke of a master</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">What still
puzzles me about this movie is the reception of it at Cannes this year. It was
booed, and critics almost unanimously called it the worst movie of the
festival. Surely, I did not have a chance to see Blue Is the Warmest Colour,
the absolute winner this year which received an impressive amount of accolades
and seals of approval from everyone. But the more I think of the movie, the
more I see its ingenuity and, simply put, greatness.</span></div>

Two trailers released soon one after another. Both look incredible, stunning and jaw-dropping; I have been waiting for the sequel to 300 ever since I first saw it. But the trailers look amazing particularly if you compare them with their predecessors:<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The third installment of the popular franchise,
the Iron Man 3 follows the events described in Avengers. “Nothing has been the
same since New York”, claims Tony Stark as he battles with anxieties, panic
attacks and insomnia. His arrogance and over-confidence leaves his life
shattered, his girlfriend in danger and the world on the brink of collapse –
and thus he need to start to put himself together piece by piece to save those
he cares about.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Even though I generally like the Iron Man
franchise – I even remember watching cartoons about him when I was younger – it
was never my favourite. It is not as serious, dark or severe as some of the other
superheroes movies are. It never attempted to provide a food for brain, however
little the comics books can give; jaw-dropping was also not its strongest suit;
its goal was solely mindless entertainment. Surprisingly enough, the movies
didn’t have a lot of action or explosions. The Iron Man trademark attractions
always were badass jokes and charismatic main character who could easily and
with a charming smile find a way out of even the hardest situation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Just a horrible film. Several sketches which attempt to be funny but fail miserably. The plot tries to be politically incorrect, but quickly degrades into bad tasted jokes. The only truly hilarious bits are the first three - the rest just calls for epic facepalm. The jokes tell volumes about a particular lack of sense of humour of screen-writers, and I cannot see how any actor, however brilliant, would possibly be able to pull of a decent performance.<br />
<div>
Well, at least they actually do enjoy it, as is obvious from the closing credits. Hugh Jackman plays his part nicely, as does Kate Winslet. The rest of the cast is failing miserably, and it is a shame to see so many good actors in such a failure of a movie-making.<div>

The rich also cry! It remind me of Wall Street 2, but without much of the fluffy staff about good people and worthy causes. Graydon Carter, by the way, played in both movies. The development of the story is grievously slow though, with only a couple of nice unexpected plot turns. Some of the scenes are simply brilliant, like the negotiation in the cafe with Mayfield.<br />
<br />
Richard Gere is back into shape; well, he is in a better shape here than he was in Movie 43. Tim Roth plays Lightman again, but still delivers! Funny enough, Monica Raymund is there too.<br />

<div>
Overall, smart movie that does not attempt to paint bankers as idiots. </div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">There exist certain features which, if found in a
movie, point out that the director is Quentin Tarantino. You can always tell
the Tarantino film apart from the rest – he is absolutely unique in what he is
doing. He is in love with films of 80’s and 90’s; he devotes a lot of time to
the work with camera, and he is able to mimic the camera work of almost any era
he wishes to; his characters are charismatic and memorable; he loves to think
that he films the advertisement of Heinz ketchup by the looks of the amount of
blood that is spilled. But most important of all are the dialogs – you will
never find this kind of dialogs in a movie by other directors. They can be
empty in substance, they may not convey any message or lead the plot sequence,
but they are interesting to listen to, they are witty, smart, sharp and
effervescent. The dialogs are Tarantino’s trademark, and his contribution to
the cinema (at least for now) is definitely putting the art of writing dialogs
to the next level.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

the best-selling novel by Yann Martel, and it is difficult to think of a book
which will be harder to transfer to the big screen. Life of Pi is so
multi-faceted, so multi-layered, that it is just the question of how much is
lost in translation rather than how to transfer everything accurately. And the
real achievement of the filmmakers is that they managed not only to keep the
atmosphere, the storyline and the main idea intact, but they actually enhanced
the experience considerably.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

It is January 1st, and I guess now is the right time to draw a line and make some conclusions about 2012. It was a hectic year, year full of fantastic movies and disappointing failures. Overall it was a good year, inspirational and interesting.<br />
<br />
And here are the movies that I liked the most:<br />
<br />
1) Amour<br />
Those who watched it will understand: it is the most emotional and touching movie of the year. Amazing play by actors, suspense and drama. Must see.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqMhBkA4aDwITF7M8YFQ8ZGj_BdBoihP86C-DhJj5L6E0qfrrcCkPqjPOcw_NHzb2II5WSxzTqihdB0IRc_-dZPix819XJQ36yntRBllEuvGguJ2nrnQiTSGPQaodDDaJTJdYAWz_3_0Tp/s1600/Amour1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqMhBkA4aDwITF7M8YFQ8ZGj_BdBoihP86C-DhJj5L6E0qfrrcCkPqjPOcw_NHzb2II5WSxzTqihdB0IRc_-dZPix819XJQ36yntRBllEuvGguJ2nrnQiTSGPQaodDDaJTJdYAWz_3_0Tp/s400/Amour1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
2) Life of Pi<br />
Mesmerising and fascinating story of the Journey. Unique masterpiece, great book skillfuly translated into the language of the big screen. Philosophical story wrapped up in beautiful 3D.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Iranian revolutionaries and several Americans are taken hostage. However, six
manage to escape to the official residence of the Canadian Ambassador and the
CIA is eventually ordered to get them out of the country. With few options,
exfiltration expert Tony Mendez devises a daring plan: to create a phony
Canadian film project looking to shoot in Iran and smuggle the Americans out as
its production crew. With the help of some trusted Hollywood contacts, Mendez
creates the ruse and proceeds to Iran as its associate producer. However, time
is running out with the Iranian security forces closing in on the truth while
both his charges and the White House have grave doubts about the operation
themselves. (© IMDb)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The story is a dramatization of the 1980 joint
CIA-Canadian secret operation, and this one is the best example of a situation
when the real life story is much richer and much more fascinating than what
film plots can offer you. And having the story ready to use, the suspense is
the king. It is extremely easy to fall into the trap of retelling the story
rather than giving an interesting spin to it, leading to a boring and difficult-to-watch-without-falling
asleep kind of film.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">6 stories spanning into the distant past and even more
distant future. The people who shape their present, not realizing that they
actually shape the future for many years and generations to come. An
exploration of how the actions of individual lives impact one another in the
past, present and future, as one soul is shaped from a killer into a hero, and
an act of kindness ripples across centuries to inspire a revolution. And simply
a new movie from Wachowski, who gave birth to the Matrix, which became
philosophical thought for many film-goers for years to come just as Star Wars
did.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This is probably the most concise plot outline of the
year. Behold; there are no master plots
to deceive or give a spin to some weird relationship; there are no unnecessary
complexities of the modern drama; there is a pure emotion flying, that is,
love. The plot outline, however concise, actually tells it all – and says
nothing at the same time. Yes, it is the story of struggle. It is the story of
a man who watches his love fading away. It is the story of a woman who suffers
even more as she helplessly waits for her consciousness to leave her. It is the
story of a woman who witnesses tragedy of love and can do absolutely nothing to
help, forced to the sidelines to observe her parents in the battle against death
which they are waging alone.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

a while. 4 years since feeble Quantum of Solace, 6 years since solid Casino
Royal, and finally, Bond is back on the screens, just in time to celebrate 50
years of Bond franchise. And it delivers, despite it not being, strictly
speaking, a Bond movie. It is actually totally different from what has been
done with Bond before.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Now, meet the
biggest innovation in Skyfall: Bond movie finally has an atmosphere. Even
though the film still is not even remotely as atmospheric as, say, The Girl
with the Dragon Tattoo, it is a giant leap for a franchise that has been
infamous for the lack of real, believable characters and presence of cardboard
environment. At last, you can see human beings in Bond movie, vulnerable,
intimidated, desperate to survive, and this makes wonders: it actually forces
you to follow the plot, rather than watching from fight to fight. It is possible
to empathise to not-so-perfect Bond on his losing streak, as opposed to some flawless
guy in tuxedo.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Time travel
has been invented, but it is so expensive that only criminals can use it. So
the new trade has appeared: in 2072, when the mob wants to get rid of someone,
the target is sent 30 years into the past, where a hired gun awaits. Someone
like Joe, who one day learns the mob wants to 'close the loop' by transporting
back Joe's future self.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">There are
two easy ways to tell whether the movie is good or not. Firstly, you should ask
how many times during the showing you have been distracted from the storyline
and the action. Good movie, quite obviously, will easily manage to grasp your
attention from the start to the very end. Secondly, after watching a good movie
one always realises how crappy the other movies recently watched were. That happened, for example, after watching the Artist: how awesome that movie was compared to all the other staff that went off the press previous winter?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

follows the life of two young officers, showing us their work, fears,

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The trailer
to the film was very promising: one could not tell from those couple of minutes
as to what was going to happen in the film, or what the film is about. It all
looked just tense, bloody and sweaty ode to policemen – something to look
forward to. The problem is that even after watching the movie I cannot tell
what the film is about, or why on earth it appeared in the way it did.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><br></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The whole
movie is done in the mockumentary style: at the very start the main character
flashes the camera that he has, and then most of the film the action is shown “as
seen” by him – all the talk, all the jokes. It was supposed to give the audience
the intimacy and the from-the-first-hand feeling of actually sitting in the
police car with the cops or joining them in their operations. Those casual
cameras are everywhere: one in the hand of Brian Taylor, two on their uniform,
couple in the car – the life of those fictitious cops has been carefully
documented.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">The fifth
installment of the Resident Evil franchise is on the screens, and here is the
peculiar thing: the plot outlined above could have been copy-pasted from the
previous 4 parts. Resident Evil, Resident Evil: Apocalypse, Resident Evil:
Extinction and Resident Evil: Afterlife – just to remind you the names, because
the stories were absolutely the same. Screenwriters just took the action to
different places, gave Alice new weapons, introduced new super-bosses and here
we go.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

business idea like that, the rational thing to do would be to predict the soon
end of the franchise. People could not watch the same staff all over and over

peculiar thing: despite the super-predictable movie, it is still good fun to
watch.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">I spent
around a week trying to find internal strength and summon all my abilities to
write a couple of words about this movie. I was pondering about deceitful
marketing, lying trailers and tough destiny of ordinary picturegoers, who have
to put up with the fact that you know nothing about the movie until you
actually see it, and thus they take immense risks of watching something they
won’t like. To cut the long story short, I was trying to come up with the way
to explain why Branded is the worst movie I have seen in my life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Should I
talk about actors? Ed Stoppard is simply not good enough for this role, he
looks lost; Jeffrey Tambor does not convince as the US spy; Leelee Sobieski
only impresses in the undress scene. Style? The movie tries to copy Generation
P (2011), lively and hilarious story about Russian advertising market in 90s
straight after USSR broke up, but Branded is not even close in its emulation.
Directors? Although there were two directors, I didn’t notice major contribution
of either of them. If anything, they only ruined the film by amateurish
execution. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Let’s start
from the basics: why do producers do sequels? The most popular – and the most
sensible – explanation is that they are trying to bank on the same, popular,
liked characters, trying to get money from people who miss the universe and
will be happy to pay to see the continuation of the story. This is why we see
never-ending Twilight saga – producers (correctly) believe that 14 year old
girls will be happy to see the next portion of adventures of Edward (ok, this
is a massive stereotype).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">So the idea
of The Bourne Legacy as the movie was flawed from the very beginning. Bourne
movie without Bourne? Seriously? </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">To say that the
preview sounds slightly unpromising is to underestimate the cause. We have seen
it so many times in so many bad comedies: two good friends going back to school
for some reason, with mandatory tear-squeezing moments of absolute
reconciliation of everyone and everything. So yet another comedy about again
same things did not give me any excitement of anticipation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Moonrise Kingdom is one of those. During the whole showing I was sitting with a
silly smile on my face, feeling like I was drinking a huge cup of hot
chocolate, sitting in a huge armchair near a fireplace. The movie is so
comfortable and easy to watch, it reminds of Amelie or Hugo. All the
ingredients are in place and appear at the correct time, playing to the overall
impression of warm, velvety, irresistibly charming and cuddly atmosphere.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

tale that we all know from our childhood. Beautiful princess, evil stepmother,
dwarves – sounds familiar, doesn’t it? But here is the twist: take this story,
add a lot of gothic style to it, pepper it with stunning visuals, make it
slightly creepy, invite the most popular actors and actresses to produce dark
story, which won’t even remotely remind of the original tale. This is Snow
White and the Huntsman for you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">In a search
for some interesting plots, the movie industry has gone crazy. Any story that
can be turned into a movie is snatched at a snap of fingers and transformed.
Sometimes this is good, and we see really exciting impressions of old stories,
Watchmen being my best example. But I personally believe there are stories that
should not be touched – and fairy tales from the childhood is just one of those
stories. So I definitely did not like the fact that there are two (!) movies
based on Snow White – this one and Mirror Mirror. And I am glad to admit that I
was wrong.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
