Very beautiful. :heart:
Funny, heart-warming, very fascinating film.
I know it was kiddish but it had an important message behind it.
(You have to work hard to achieve what you dream for.)
It was just amazing. Go and see it! You won't regret it.
^ I so wanna see it! I'm suck a Disney freak, I mean I hate those disney teen idols, but I LOVE the classics. "The Little Mermaid" and "The Lion King" <3
Just watched (500) Days of Summer; 8.9/10
Despite the annoying music references that are nothing but self-praise of the director towards his musical taste, it is a greaaat story, you can really connect to it, it's funny, it's cute, and it's sad. Loved it. Soundtrack rocks.
Get the **** out of here. Aladdin, I can see, and it's definitely an equal of Up an Wall-E, but Little Mermaid has not aged well. At all. Compare it to a similar film, Beauty and the Beast, and you will notice a VAST difference in quality. Beauty and the Beast still holds up today as one of the crowning achievements of animation, while the characters, songs and the general excitement of The Little Mermaid have all worn out their welcome.
Sorry, I don't mean to bash you or your taste in movies, specifically. I just don't like TLM and think it's one of the most overrated animated films of all time.
I didn't care for Beauty & The Beast at all. The songs weren't anything special and the scenes with just Gaston and Belle's "whiney" father bored me to tears. The Little Mermaid ***** all over that movie. "Poor Unfortunate Souls", "Part Of Your World", the epic shark scene in the beginning.
District 9
Ok First of all I gotta say i was very hyped about this. Its #96 spot on IMDB's Top 250 and its 90% rating in RottenTomatoes spoke nothing but good things about the film. However, I was a little disappointed. First of all, it's an uncomfortable film to watch. It's like 2009's "Children of Men", it has a very heavy environment, and the camera movements don't help with that. But that isn't necessarily a flaw, it could've still been a great movie, and the first part of the film looked very promising. I loved the false documentary style and I was eager to know what had happened to the main character. The peak of the movie, however, came early when [SPOILERS COMING, OBVIOUSLY] the guy was forced to shoot an alien. Since he escaped that laboratory, it all went downhill for me.
It started getting boring. The acting of the lead guy was pathetic at most parts, the director should have hired someone with some experience. And the shift from false documentary to mere action film was not well done. I mean... was he freaking serious with that Transformer at the end of the film? I would've given it probably a 9/10 just from the first part alone, but most of the film was stale, the script left unexplored many of the topics mentioned in the first minutes, and it was just not right.
I was gonna say it deserved the Best Make Up Oscar but I'm reading the aliens were CGI. That was a great job with CGI there, they looked very real, but it has nothing to do with monster special effects films like 2012, Avatar and Transformers competing with it. Maybe it should get a Best Sounds nomination or something.
