• It reminds me of tons of books and movies I’ve seen like “Rear Window” (movie), “Stone Cold” (book), the video camera was a bit like “Blair Witch Project” and the sort of way the film is like is like a teen horror movies like “I Know What You Did Last Simmer” and stuff like that.
• I like Shia LaBeouf. He’s a good actor.
• The bad guy looked kinda like Anthony Hopkins which was kinda scary.
• The Shining’s in there too!
• It made me laugh, which I love.
• Yeah it’s pretty good.

Un film del 2009, regia di Lasse Hallström, con Sarah Roemer / Richard Gere / Joan Allen / Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa. Prodotto da Lucky Red (94min)

Drammatico / Ragazzi

Un professore universitario instaura un legame fortissimo con un cane abbandonato che ha adottato.

A smart and sexy romantic comedy with an action twist. Vince (Rossif Sutherland) is an ex-con on parole after five years in prison for a heist gone wrong. He wants to go straight, but his former boss and loan shark, the dangerously quirky Kranski (Donald Sutherland) reminds him in no uncertain terms that he has a big debt to pay and won’t be free until he pays it off.

Discouraged, Vince resumes his life of petty crime and works days in Kranski’s auto body shop. On the side, he continues with a hobby he developed while in jail – metal sculpture. After a night of furiously working out his frustration and rage with a welding torch and a pile of scrap metal, he collapses exhausted, just as super-hot art dealer Belinda (Rebecca Romijn) brings in her car for servicing. She takes one look at Vince’s sculpture and knows he’s the next big thing. She fully intends to cash in.

Belinda sells Vince’s sculpture for an outrageous price, and soon Vince is the talk of the art circuit. Everyone wants to meet him. Vince is uncomfortable with the attention, but figures he will be able to pay off Kranski sooner than expected. He starts to think about his future, a future that might include Belinda’s beautiful assistant, Kristen (Sarah Roemer), if he can get away from Belinda, who has her clutches into him deep.

And if that wasn’t enough, Kranski finds out about Vince’s new business and threatens him if Vince doesn’t share the spoils with Kranski and his boys. Fed up, Vince and Kristen concoct an elaborate scheme to put Kranski out of business for once and for all – if someone doesn’t get killed first.

Directed by Risa Bramon Garcia (200 Cigarettes).

(tratto da Nuovo Oggi di sabato 17 ottobre 2009) – Ieri seconda giornata per la Festa del Film di Roma e se giovedì non molto pubblico si era presentato ai bordi del red-carpet per accogliere Christopher Lee e Paz Vega, con l’arrivo di Richard Gere la situazione è notevolmente migliorata.
Nonostante il freddo che in questi giorni sta colpendo la capitale molta più gente è accorsa per vedere una delle star più famose e quotate di Hollywood.
Ma andiamo con ordine perchè prima di Gere è stato il momento di Franco Zeffirelli, del vicesindaco di Roma, Cutrufo e della Ministro del Turismo, Michela Brambilla.
Franco Zeffirelli celebra la capitale e il suo rapporto di odio-amore con la città in cui ha vissuto per 40 anni. S’intitola ‘Omaggio a Roma’ il documentario-spot che il maestro ha girato con Monica Bellucci ed Andrea Bocelli, che danno vita all’opera romana per eccellenza: la ‘Tosca’ di Puccini.
Fortemente voluto dal vicesindaco della capitale, Mauro Cutufro, per promuovere l’immagine della Città Eterna nel mondo, il documentario è stato presentato stamattina al Festival internazionale del Film di Roma, alla presenza oltre che del regista fiorentino e del tenore, anche del sindaco Gianni Alemanno, del vicesindaco Cutrufo e della Ministra del turismo Michela Brambilla. Dal corto sono stati tratti due diversi prodotti promozionali: un frammento di 3 minuti e tre spot da 30 secondi l’uno destinati alla diffusione sui media internazionali.
Zeffirelli racconta Roma seguendo il filo conduttore del cinema (le immagini della città sono inframezzate da celebri scene che l’hanno resa immortale), dell’arte monumentale e dell’acqua (sulla quale è nata la città).
“L’idea non è quella di svelare una Roma che è già stata scoperta -  ha spiegato Zeffirelli – ma di continuare a raccontare una storia senza tempo e senza fine, come quella di Roma, un capitolo che non si chiude mai”.”Quello che più mi ha affascinato – ha spiegato il maestro – è quanto Roma sia semplice. Ce l’abbiamo addosso tutti. Appartiene a tutti”.
“Per promuovere Roma è necessario affidarsi ad una grande immagine artistica che spieghi una città che non appartiene al passato ma che è un’idea che si rigenera continuamente – ha detto il sindaco Alemanno -  e coinvolgere in questa operazione di promozione tre artisti di questo calibro è stata un’idea vincente che ho sposato immediatamente”. Il sindaco della capitale ha poi confidato di credere molto nel fatto che questo spot d’autore possa concretamente aiutare Roma nella sua candidatura alle Olimpiadi del 2020. ‘L’idea di Cutrufo è arrivata molto prima di quando si è pensato alla candidatura di Roma alle Olimpiadi – ha precisato Alemanno -. Ma adesso sara’ importantissimo per parlare della nostra citta’ in tutto il mondo e credo che il Coni ne potra’ tenere conto quando dovra’ scegliere”.
Al termine della conferenza stampa Alemanno e Cutrufo hanno consegnato a Zeffirelli il primo premio Colosseo, un riconoscimento che da quest’anno in poi sarà attribuito alle professionalità che maggiormente diffonderanno positivamente l’immagine di Roma nel mondo.
Tornando al glamour parliamo della più bella sorpresa per ora. Infatti la pellicola che vede protagonista il sempre bellissimo Gere è fino ad ora la migliore presentata alla stampa.
‘Hachiko: A dog’s story’ è una commovente storia che assume i connotati di una meravigliosa fiaba tratta da un fatto realmente accaduto in Giappone poco prima dello scoppio della Seconda Guerra Mondiale.
Il vero protagonista del film è Achi un cane di razza Akito. Questo amico molto speciale accompagnava ogni giorno il suo padrone, professore universitario, alla stazione ferroviaria e ritornava a prenderlo quando rientrava dalla giornata lavorativa.
Purtroppo il suo padrone un giorno morì di arresto cardiaco mentre era all’università. Hachiko fedelmente ritornò alla stazione il giorno successivo, e ogni giorno per i nove anni successivi, in attesa del suo amato padrone.
Con il passare del tempo, durante la sua visita quotidiana, Hachiko tocca la vita di molti che lavorano nelle vicinanze. Insegna così alla popolazione locale l’amore, la compassione e soprattutto l’irriducibile fedeltà.
Oggi, una statua in bronzo di Hachiko siede nel suo posto di attesa al di fuori della stazione di Shibuya in Giappone come un ricordo permanente della sua devozione e di amore.
Un film semplicissimo e dolcissimo che senza buttare troppa carne al fuoco è assolutamente perfetta proprio nella sua assoluta innocenza.
Prende il cuore di tutti il cane Hachi perchè la sua vita è la metafora dell’amore più vero e più puro, quello in cui si da completamente la propria anima senza chiedere nulla in cambio, senza interessi. Amare per istinto, amare per natura. Quel sentimento che tutti noi vorremo avere al nostro fianco ma che forse solo chi ha un amico a quattro zampe può comprendere fino in fondo.
Richard Gere in conferenza stampa parla di “Una storia che colpisce tutti noi perchè magica. Non c’è una spiegazione a ciò che si prova ascoltandola. Le emozioni nascono spontanee e basta”.
Parla anche della sua fede buddista e con questa spiega il motivo che lo ha avvicinato a questo racconto che nasce in Giappone e affonda le sue radici in quella cultura che l’attore statunitense ama tanto.
Un film assolutamente da vedere quindi, nei cinema ufficialmente uscirà a Dicembre poco prima di Natale quando le fiabe come quella di Hachi sono perfette per far sognare bambini, giovani e non.
“Questa è una favola, che per i temi trattati, è dedicata non solo per ai più piccoli ma anche e probabilmente soprattutto agli adulti” ha concluso Gere in sala conferenze.
Tanto per specificare anche la regia di Halstrom è buona e ben curata, dalle luci alla fotografia passando per una ricerca delle riprese affatto scontata.
Altre pellicole a cui abbiamo finora assistito sono state ‘Viola di Mare’ (con Valeria Solarino), la vita di due siciliane lesbiche ad inizio secolo; ‘City of your final destination’ (con Hantony Hopkins), commedia americana che racconta di Omar Razaghi uno studente di origini iraniane diplomatosi all’università del Colorado al quale viene assegnata un borsa di studio per scrivere la biografia ufficiale dell’autore scomparso latino-americano Jules Gund; ‘Dawson Isla 10′ (di Miguel Littin), ambientato dopo il colpo di stato militare del 1973 in Cile dove tutti i più stretti collaboratori e ministri di Salvador Allende vengono rinchiusi nel campo di concentramento dell’isola di Dawson, all’imboccatura dello Stretto di Magellano dove, per cancellarne le identità, sono ribattezzati con un numero.
La Solarino delude ogni aspettitiva con un prodotto costruito male e che non riesce a coinvolgere fino in fondo, Hopkins si è dedicato ad un’opera estremamente lunga e pretenziosa che se fosse stata più breve forse avrebbe potuto divertire ma così finisce per diventare purtroppo lunga e tediosa, infine il film di Littin è la visione comunista di ciò che avvenne in Cile dopo la caduta di Allende e non aggiungiamo altro, lasciamo immaginare a voi quanto possa essere molto di parte e molto poco obbiettiva storicamente.
Tanti film e tanti attori abbiamo già visto dopo 48 ore e il più bravo di tutti è… un cane.

Fired Up! (2009)
★★ / ★★★★

I had very low expectations prior to watching to this movie because of all the negative reviews when it came out but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Two football jocks (Nicholas D’Agosto, Eric Christian Olsen) decided to go to cheerleading camp instead of football camp over the summer to pursue beautiful women. But as time went on, the two really got into it and D’Agosto fell for their school’s lead cheerleader (Sarah Roemer), despite her having a boyfriend. While its premise summons movies like “Bring It On,” this was actually more focused on the relationships between people instead of the cheerleading stunts and the hardwork that comes with winning a competition. Though I did expect gay jokes because the main characters were supposed to be manly jocks, there was something gay-friendly about them so the jokes didn’t come out as malicious. In fact, Freedom Jones, the writer, put in little twists here and there when it came to the two leads’ relationship; instead of just being friends whose common bond was to have sex with as many women as they could, they had a sort of genuine bromance going on (reflected in scenes when they were away from camp) so I believed that they could actually be friends. D’Agosto and Olsen’s characters were not your typical dumb jocks. They actually had a brain and a certain sensitivity that (admittedly) made me go “Aww.” I also really liked the many different personalities within and outside the leads’ cheer group. Even though such characters could get a little one-dimensional, they provided enough laughter to make such a thing somewhat forgivable. This flick, undoubtedly, lacks depth but if one is in the mood for something as soft, harmless and fluffy as cotton candy, this one is a pretty good choice. If it had been edgier (such as pushing the quirky characters to “Election”-level caricatures, which would make sense because they were in a competitive environment), I definitely would’ve liked it a bit more but it still left me satisfied.

Commedia

Shawn Colfax e Nick Brady, le star della squadra di football della Gerald R. Ford High School, temono la prospettiva di un’altra estate al campo estivo di football. Nick organizza allora un piano per unirsi al campo estivo delle cheerlader e i due si trovano così circondati di belle ragazze. Shawn si innamora, però, di Carly, la bella capocheerleader che è molto sospettosa riguardo ai veri motivi che hanno spinto i due ragazzi a recarsi al campo. Per convincerla a superare la propria diffidenza, i ragazzi dovranno, così, inventare nuove sorprendenti coreografie di cheerleading per l’importante gara di fine estate.

Nothing like a good teen comedy featuring a couple of 30 year olds.

Fired Up stars Nicholas D’Agosto and Eric Christian Olsen as a couple of high school football players dreading the prospect of another summer at football camp. In order to avoid another football camp in the heat, they come up with the idea of joining their schools cheerleaders at cheer camp instead, surrounding themselves with gorgeous young women. The guys are having the time of their lives. However, Carly (Sarah Roemer), the head cheerleader who can see right through them, is very suspicious of their motives. Shawn (D’Agosto) begins to fall for Carly and must come up with some new moves to prove his intentions before the all-important cheer competition finals.

I didn’t expect much from Fired Up and I got what I expected for the most part. It’s your typical teen comedy with a cheerleading theme and a predictable plot. It wasn’t quite as terrible as I thought it would be and I did have a few chuckles here and there. Certainly more of a comedy than that Tara Reid piece of garbage that I recently reviewed. The problem with this movie is that it was not edgy enough which got it a PG-13 rating probably to ensure a wider audience. A movie like American Pie was such a successful teen comedy because it was willing to push the envelope. The humor in American Pie was over the top and earned the film an R rating which may have sacrificed initial viewership for comedy but ultimately proved to be the right decision. Fired Up seemed like it could have easily gone this route and been a whole lot funnier but the jokes and gags fell short. The cast does a pretty good job with what they have to work with. Eric Christian Olsen definitely has some comedic talent. He’s appeared in movies like this before, including Beer Fest – a favorite of mine. There really weren’t any other standouts of note in this one.

I judge a comedy movie, not so much on the acting or even the plot, but on how much and how hard I laugh. That’s the number one reason that I sit down and watch a movie of this genre. While watching Fired Up, I didn’t laugh frequently enough or hard enough to give it my approval. Even though I had low expectations going into this movie, while watching it, I felt it had potential to be much more. With a better script and willingness to push the envelope, Fired Up may have succeeded. Unfortunately, Fired Up was just another teen comedy dud.

I give Fired Up 2 out of 5

Eliza Dushku recently spoke to MTV about her role in the currently shooting Valediction. The film stars Ben Barnes (The Chronicles Of Narnia) as a father in a car accident which leaves his daughter Brooke in a coma, but there’s more to the crash than meets the eye.

“It’s about this young couple and they have a 6-year-old daughter, seemingly in a coma, but [they learn] she’s actually alive and fully living out in her brain, but is just in this locked-in state,” Eliza explains. “So he’s trying to have his daughter wake up from this traumatic experience.” Eliza plays Renee, Josh’s former co-worker with whom he previously had an affair. Josh, who left his advertising gig to settle down with his wife and daughter, is feeling trapped by his life when the film begins — right before Renee reenters into his life, and the accident occurs. “Josh sort of meets up with Renee and wonders what would have happened if he went that route,” Dushku says. “It really is about his struggle both with these women in his life and then with his daughter who’s been injured. It turns into a really psychological chaos.”

The film, described as a contemporary psychological thriller, is directed by Suri Krishnamma (Wuthering Heights) from a script by Ronnie Christensen. It co-stars Sarah Roemer (Disturbia, Waking Madison) as Barner’s wife, Brenda Fricker (My Left Foot), Johnny Whitworth (Empire Records) and Dennis Haysbert (24, The Unit). The script, director Krishnamma and Dushku’s castmates made her want to do the film. “It just seemed to me that there weren’t stories that were about young people but were adults that were dealing with these struggles. It seemed to me like a more sophisticated character that I wanted to sort of take a stab at.”

Two ladies’ men join a cheerleader camp for obvious reasons.

I have seen two of Shia’s films recently on Sky and I have to say, he plays opposite some stunning leading ladies!  Not sure about their acting potential, but hey!

Megan Fox

The first was Disturbia, a story about a teenager living under house arrest becomes convinced his neighbour is a serial killer.  He plays opposite Sarah Roemer – wow!

And in the last couple of nights I watched Transformers.  I really enjoyed it, I must say, but I am a sucker for action movies.  The actress with Shia was Megan Fox, with her famous car-bonnet opening scene.  Again, wow!

I think I will have to keep an eye out for other Shia movies – not for him but for the women opposite him.  Anyone got any recommendations?

“Wo sind Kaffee und Donuts? Du kannst niemanden beobachten ohne Kaffee und Donuts!”

Seit Kales Vater vor einem Jahr gestorben ist, gibt sich er sich daran die Schuld und vergräbt sich in Selbstmitleid. Als sein Spanisch-Lehrer seinen Vater erwähnt, rastet er aus und verpasst diesem ein blaues Auge. Als Folge bekommt er 3 Monate Hausarrest – durch eine Fußfessel, die mit dem Polizeirevier in Kontakt steht, ist er im Haus eingesperrt. Nur sein Freund Ronnie und die neue Nachbarin Ashley leisten ihm Gesellschaft. Als sie die Nachbarn beobachten, kommt ihnen der Verdacht, dass Mr. Turner ein gesuchter Serienkiller ist – doch Mr. Turner bekommt sehr schnell mit, dass er beobachtet wird…

Beim ersten Sehen fand ich “Disturbia” ziemlich gut, jetzt, beim zweiten Mal, war ich leider “Transformers” geschädigt mit einer gut dosierten Abneigung gegen Shia LaBeouf – auch “Indiana Jones IV” konnte daran nicht viel ändern. Doch Filme sollte man ja eigentlich nicht nach der Sympathie für den Hauptdarsteller bewerten – aber ich mach das mal einfach so. Ich mag den nicht. “Disturbia” ist allerdings ansonsten recht gut, und so holt er vieles von dem, was der hypernervöse LaBöff versaut, wieder raus.

In allen Kritiken, Berichten und Meinungen zu “Disturbia” wird “Das Fenster zum Hof” zitiert- dann mach ich das mal auch. Der Film wurde auch von diesem inspiriert, doch da ich das Original nicht kenne, soll uns das mal nicht weiter stören. Hollywood inspiriert sich ja dauernd bei alten Filmen, und Inspiration ist immer noch besser als Remaken. Mich würde allerdings interessieren, inwiefern “Das Fenster zum Hof” damals durch Product Placement aufgefallen ist – “Disturbia” tut dies nämlich. Eigentlich jedoch fällt dies nur an einem Produkt – der XBox 360 und dem Spiel “Ghost Recon” – auf. Alle anderen beworbenen Gegenstände fallen kaum noch auf, man sieht sie schon so oft im Alltag, dass es eigentlich egal ist, ob sie im Film zu sehen sind. Einem Werbespot kommt dieser trotzdem nicht gleich (außer wie gesagt für XBox), denn ob Kale nun PSP spielt, Musik vom IPod hört oder Red Bull trinkt, interessiert mich nicht so. Wer tut das nicht. Durch die Anwendung dieser “modernen” Marken wirkt der Film eher noch authentischer und auf das jugendliche Zielpublikum ausgerichteter, den nichts ist schlimmer oder unglaubwürdiger als abgeklebte Markennamen oder ein Jugendlicher in der Hauptrolle, der statt Red Bull sagen wir mal… Apfelsaftschorle trinkt.

Was aber hat “Disturbia” denn zu bieten außer Schia LeBlöd und Werbung? Spannung, Humor und Sarah Roemer. Spannend ist er allemal. Anfangs gammelt Kale nur rum, ihm wird lanweilig und er beginnt, die Nachbarn auszuspionieren – unter anderem Ashley, womit wir bei Punkt drei wären.

Zusammen mit Ronnie spionieren sie dann Mr. Turner aus – und dann wird es spannend. Niemand weiß so recht, was mit dem los ist, da der Zuschauer den gleichen Blickwinkel wie Kale hat, will auch er wissen, was es mit diesem auf sich hat. Das dabei trotz allem der Witz nicht zu kurz kommt, versteht sich bei einem Film mit dieser Zielgruppe von selbst.

“Disturbia” ist also ein unterhaltsamer Film, der trotz des Hauptdarstellers zu punkten weiß. Auch wenn man manche Handlungen der Akteure (ähnlich wie bei “Jeepers Creepers”) einfach mal hinnehmen muss, so macht er doch, auch beim zweiten Mal gucken, noch Spaß.
