My Life As A Dog - 80s
★★★1/2 - maybe 4
Notable Actors: None

This is a (I think) Swedish film about a young adolescent boy working through the traumas of life. Its kind of a funny drama with many interesting characters. This young boy has lost his father, is losing his mother, and losing his dog, which is just about the final straw for him. But amidst all this he finds happiness and pleasure amongst the many eccentics of a small town he stays in. On Netflix the common sense rating 11+, and it doesnt get too depressing or have extreme nudity, but its definitely there, and is talked of quite a bit. Not to mention the bit of mischeif the young boy insists on getting into... Overall this movie was pretty good, held my attention ok at least, though definitely not for the younger or anyone seeking lots of action. I bet if there was anyone out there who was looking to really evaluate a movie, look for metaphors, symbollism, this is your one.

Black Snake Moan - 07
★★★1/2
Notable Actors: Justin Timberlake, Samuel L. Jackson, Christina Ricci

Yeah, you read right, JT acts pretty good in this film. A little misplaced, considering hes about 10x hotter than everyone else in the movie... Though I suppose some guys might argue Christina Ricci who plays our main character, Rae. Rae is left heart broken, and torn to peices after her boyfriend Ronnie (Timberlake) goes off to the military. Shes a sex addict see, so there forms this problem. She goes around doing her thing, and yeah, this is a pretty nit grit film, so expect some violent sex. Just warning you. Anyways, after getting beaten half to death after making fun of a guys... shortcomings, a man, Lazarus (Jackson), finds her bleeding on the street and takes her in. He is deeply religious and ends up feeling it his responsibility to kind of "redeem" this girl. So he chains her up and cares for her. How would you like that, waking up in some strange mans house, chained to the heater. nuts. So its a pretty interesting watch, but not really something Id recommend. The dialogue was a bit "written", but the story does pretty much go full circle with some good symbols... The acting was dull in places, but not bad for all the major scenes. I was slightly disappointed with the ending, because of course, while I do generally like happy endings, it seems that what they did didnt really solve all their problems. Id say, watch this only if you have nothing else to really watch.

Suckerpunch- OUT NOW!
★★★ maybe 1/2
Notable Actors: Vanessa Hudgens, Emily Browning, Jena Malone

This is kind of a difficult movie to evaluate. Its one of those movies that tries to get both sides, attracting audiences from a psycological point of view, banning togetgher in the face of rape and prostitution, and hot chicks. This young girl, appearantly by the name of Baby Doll (Browning), gets institutionalized by her stepfather after attemted rape (by the dad) and a missed defensive bullet that hit her sister (shot by Baby Doll). She kind of envisions a new world deep into the back recesses of her mind and uses it to create an escape plan. Some parts of this is a little twisted and hard to get, but I understand where its trying to go. Its one of those movies thats trying to be a mind bending psychological inspirational, but just didnt quite make it. Not a must-see, but ok if your just looking for an I-wanna-kill-time movie. Wonderfully make-uped girls that will make you feel jealous, and decent-good special effects.
