Movie Reviews of Dirty Pretty Things
Movie Review: Great Movie, Disappointing DVD Quality
Summary: 5 Stars
Don't know what happened here, but this fine "5-star" thriller reproduction looks rather like a "second or third generation" transfer. It's darker, more diffuse and less clear than what I saw on the big screen. What was crystal-clear and beautifully realized in the theater now looks more like a "third cousin" on DVD. Something seriously went wrong with this transfer-- disappointing, considering how fine a film it is basically.Movie Review: some mo' good movie makin...
Summary: 5 Stars
at first, i was like: okay, a good movie... kinda slow/but good... but i 'ont know what happent next: before i knew it, i was all caught up in it and found myself grinnin like a fool, tellin myself: maaaaaan, i gotsta have this!!!
so, that's what i'm gon' do jus as soon as sell back some bottlecaps anthangs... this is a keeper... an original story, fleshed out characters... great acting...
somesad-ish... but beautiful. fareal....
Movie Review: Magnificent. A gritty drama w/redeeming qualities
Summary: 5 Stars
I gave it 5 stars only because there is no possibility to give 6. I am buying another one to give it as a gift. Gut-wrenchingly realistic story, a tour-de-force through the roads illegal emigrants in London have to travel, superb acting, and not only by Audrey Taotou, but all of her co-stars, plus great romance, plus ... an ending you will not forget. Oh, let me add this: You will NOT WANT TO FORGET.Movie Review: Optimism's triumph
Summary: 5 Stars
The beautiful Audrey Tatou, who so many of us fell in love with in "Amelie", is given much more to work with in this gritty tale of London's illegal immigrants. She pulls it off with varying success. Luckily, she is surrounded by a great cast, some of whom manage to play unsavory characters without making them cartoonish. I found the ending a bit too easy, but overall I really enjoyed this film.Movie Review: You're Not in Paris Anymore Amelie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a dark, atmospheric film about illegal immigrants who become entangled in the weird goings-on taking place in the hotel where they work. The film begins slowly and allows the viewer to discover the secrets along with the actors as they discover they are in over their heads. An edge of your seat finale has a wonderful twist. Superb acting and an unusual story make this film a winner.
