I'll be brief on this one. This movie was just surprisingly SPECTACULAR! "Moulin Rouge" is a cinematic masterpiece in the making, and is sure to be one early contender for next year's Oscars. The performances of everyone are very good, and special praise must go to both Ewan MacGregor and Nicole Kidman, who are perfectly cast and possess an amazing screen charisma and chemistry together.
"Moulin Rouge" is probably the next film in my collective movie recollection that will become a cult favorite of mine, and I can't wait till this film is out on video!!!
My rating is 8.4 out of 10.

"Beaches" is definitely one of those movies you watch when you're in the mood to just have a good cry, and nothing else. Critics have hammered this movie because of its predictablility and overtly melodramatic flow, but in a strange way it is what I like about this movie. For some reason, this movie sits well with me, and I am usually a very thorough critic of films. Perhaps it is because I happened to catch the movie when I was just hanging out at home with nothing to do.
Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey were pretty good as chums, and I actually began to care about the characters. Impressive cast also helps to make "Beaches" a pleasant watch, and although the script isn't neccessarily impeccable, it is still worth seeing. Also the soundtrack to the movie is worth the effort.
My overall rating is a 6.8 out of 10.

"Blow" is a movie which definitely serves as a moral lesson to those who have ever thought about becoming involved within the narcotics game. This movie is well acted, well directed and does a fantastic job of allowing viewers to see firsthand the destruction, uncertainty, and danger of becoming entrenched in the fast money of this multi-billion dollar industry.
Kudos to Johnny Depp in a role that gives him an opportunity once again to flex his acting chops. After a string of unforgettable roles, he delivers in this one. Ray Liotta as always was phenomenal, and newcomer Penelope Cruz is decent as Depp's wife.
Overall, this movie was great on many aspects because it isn't a sad, soppy, preachy melodrama. This movie contains real, layered characters with some depth that allows you to sympathize and at the same time pity the characters and the circumstances in which they find themselves. This film isn't neccessarily Oscar-material, but it's a very good cinematic effort. My rating is 7.7 out of 10.
