Movie Reviews of The Million Dollar Hotel
Movie Review: "Life is perfect...life is the best...."
Summary: 5 Stars
It's full of magic and beauty and oppurtunity and television, and surprises, lots of surprises yeah. And then theres that stuff that everybody longs for...but you don't really feel until its gone." I reccommend this movie, not just because I like it, and Jeremy Davies' acting was phenomenal, but because the story is one of the best I've ever seen! It's truly full of beauty and oppurtunity, and *Television, that special treat is the way Tom-Tom says Television*...its a mystery, an independent, and it's also very funny as hell! If you really wanna know, it makes you cry at times, I don't like love stories, but Eloise and Tom-Tom's relationship just made me glow. You definetly have to see this movie!! TOM-TOM I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!!"I am the walrus and God's just the middleman!" ~Dixie
Movie Review: The First Thing I Realized After I Jumped...
Summary: 5 Stars
I feel happy to be alive after seeing this film. If you, like me, have heard rumors of Mel Gibson's harsh dismissal of this film I suggest you ignore them other than to understand that great actors can apparently be small men.) I am interested in both U2 and Wim Wenders, so I knew of this project for over a year, and it has surpassed my highest hopes in every regard. Bono said he "wanted to break peoples' hearts" with this film. Wim Wenders said "I feel more like a mender of hearts. I'd like people to feel lighter after having seen this film." Both have fulfilled their wishes. Great music, (buy the stk) beautiful Wenders, as always, to look at, excellent ensemble cast! Thank you for a very funny and beautiful film.Movie Review: Another Triumph for Wim Wenders
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the finest films I've seen in years. Visually stunning, it has a sense of humor which manages to be strangely uplifting -- even though the main character dies within the first five minutes of the film, and everyone in the lunatic world has a hidden agenda. Spectacular aristry of performance by the main character (I'm afraid I don't know the actor's name) and by Milla Jojovich, who manages to make fragile intelligence seem fresh instead of cliched.However, don't go in expecting it to be an easy, formula film. This is one more for the arthouse crowd than the "oooh Mel Gibson -- what a hunk" groupies.
Watch for U2's Bono (co-author) in one of the crowd scenes.
Movie Review: Un consumidor Mexicano.
Summary: 5 Stars
Me encantan las películas de Win Wenders y esta la verdad es que aunque ya tiene algo de tiempo no la conocía, mi descubrimiento de la misma fue por el video de U2 de una muy buen canción "The Ground Beneath Her Feet" que forma parte del soundtrack de esta película, en dicho video aparecen escenas de la película como es obvio y sale en un cameo al escritor Salman Rushdie, el mismo que el Ayatola Jomeini le pusiera precio a su cabeza por su libro "los versos satanicos" y que actualmente vive refugiado en USA, se que sera un placer por fin poder ver esta película.Movie Review: 5 well earned stars!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Million Dollar Hotel is off-beat, and by no means Wenders' best work, but still worth viewing on a rainy day! Its a bit melancholy, quite quirky, sometimes surreal, yet very sweet. Jeremy Davies delivers a fine performance as Tom-Tom. Milla Jovavich is stunning. The script is slightly odd, but not distracting, and there are moments of pure poetry, like Tom-Tom's fall. What helps the movie immensely is the really fantastic soundtrack (minus one song -- the Spanish version of Anarchy in the UK is awful). The music is either jazzy or U2/Brian Eno-esque which makes it perfect for grey days.
