..ok, so he cries at a lot of movies. big whoop dee do. the point is that he cried and I did not which was astonishing. this is a very decent movie. I give it my utmost respect. although it didn't make me break down like the little girl that I am or move me to some deep contemplation, I have to say that it is a classic and must see. when I say classic I mean that the director knows his stuff.. the film is constructed well. it has a formal structure which is very fluid and easy to follow. not many anime movies do this (well not ones that I've seen) bottom line - watch this film - open your mind and see WWII from a new perspective. you'll appreciate the classic story telling and learn a thing or two about the far east.

Tombstone reverie, liquor and belligerence = hilarious bar room brawling. The one liners are endlessly quoted. There is definitely some fake and corny qualities about the movie but there is no denying that the Earps, Holliday and Ringo are some of the most bad ass gunslingers ever. Best portrayal of Doc Holliday by Val Kilmer; definition of cool. The Chopin, the Latin, the alcoholism! On a cross country trip one summer, I had to go and visit Tombstone, Arizona just to check out where it all went down. Some people like to collect airport shot glasses and some people like to get wasted on tequila and stumble through the old west. Tombstone is a must have for any movie collection Cheers to you, Doc!

Okay, so my friend and I were walking out of the theater and I asked him what he thought about the movie and I reiterated my adoration for Del Toro. So my pal says, "Yeah, he's alright. He gets the job done." It struck me right then, that not only did that apt description sum up Del Toro's acting but it also summed up my feelings about the movie. 21 Grams made me wince, made me cry, and made me smile, but then, wasn't that the movie's intention? A dash of love, a dash of pain. UNICEF commercials make me emotional too but isn't that the point of them? McDonalds grills up my burger just right, and that's why I give them my dollar and 49. Just because the appetite was fed, doesn't mean the food deserves an award. Doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy it either.
