The Little Things YIFY

Sometimes the story of a movie is so predictable only a one or two things can save a that movie. 'A Guy Thing' is one of those movies. You can see every single little thing in the story from miles, which is not a surprise with a movie that has its big climax on a wedding where people realize certain things. I have just told you everything you already know before you start watching. Luckily for this movie it has one or two things that save it.Minor spoilers.The first thing I liked are the little jokes that do work and the second thing I liked is the actress that makes those little jokes work. Julia Stiles is Becky, the cousin of Karen (Selma Blair) who will soon be married to Paul (Jason Lee). After his bachelor party he wakes up next to Becky, he doesn't know yet who she is, but apparently they have not slept together. Normally they would never see each other again, but she turns up once or twice even before Paul learns that she is Karen's cousin. Because Becky's ex-boyfriend, a cop, had Becky followed and photographed Becky and Paul have to meet again to solve this problem. From here on, and actually from the first second of the movie, you can predict what happens. Because Karen is not a bad girl she can not be the victim of Paul and Becky so the movie gives her Paul's brother Pete (Thomas Lennon) who loves her with all his heart, so we guess (and we're right, of course).In a way have told you the entire story, but you already knew it. I have left out some funny surprises, but we must not look at the story here. Like every comedy it has some nice jokes, which helps the movie, but the best thing here is Julia Stiles. I liked her in most of her other movies but here I really loved her. She was charming, beautiful and funny. Jason Lee as the guy in this story is a pretty nice match. Selma Blair plays a character she plays a little too much. She does a nice job so I must not complain. If you want story and surprises, don't watch this. If you can like a movie for the charming leading actress and the little moments she has with the guy you might like this more than you think.

When watching this Shirley Temple film, it is easy to see why The Little Colonel was such a crowd-pleaser. This film has a long Old South story to tell, that is both sentimental and predictable. The story has young Shirley Temple up against gruff old Lionel Barrymore, as her stubborn grandfather. For her sidekick, she has favourite Bill "Bojangles" Robinson, and the two of them are sheer magic together. One of their best scenes is the famous staircase dance. But the film was in danger of losing Lionel Barymore. At the time this movie was being filmed, Mr.Barrymore was suffering with severe arthritis, in extreme pain he had difficulty walking. A large blackboard was wheeled on-stage with all of Barrymore's lines chalked up. During filming he was stumbling on his lines and innocent Shirley Temple told him what his line was-- 'Mr. Barrymore, you're supposed to say so-and-so here.'The humiliated veteran actor exploded, yelling "I'm thirty years in this business!" Being warned not to swear in front of the child, Mr. Barrymore tried his best to storm of the set to his dressing room. Director David Butler went after him and came back with the bad news, he felt Shirley had made him look ridiculous, and to get somebody else to do the picture. It was now up to Shirley Temple to go alone and make up with him. She did, by telling him he was the best actor in the world, and asking for his autograph. As always, little Shirley Temple saves the day. It should also be noted that Shirley was known as "One Take Temple" because of her amazing ability to memorize her lines as well as all of the other players, before she could even read or write. The sheer magnetism of Shirley Temple always makes The Little Colonel a very enjoyable film to watch.

I remember Stephen King's book NEEDFUL THINGS being one of the most brutal things the author had written up to that point, which is perhaps why this film adaptation feels so lacklustre by comparison. NEEDFUL THINGS has a slightly cheesy, TV movie feel to it, which robs the production of the genuine horror found within King's book.It's not all bad, and there's certainly plenty of mileage in the storyline. The story about the antiques store opening in a small town and proceeding to send an evil influence through the dark streets was previously done better in the very similar SALEM'S LOT, although the use of the 'favours' is a novel touch here and the tit-for-tat pranking remains entertaining.I think the problem is that films from the 1990s tend to have dated a lot more than similar fare from the 1970s or '80s, which is the problem with NEEDFUL THINGS: it looks and feels dated. Some of the acting is histrionic (I like J. T. Walsh but he really needed to rein it in) and the direction (by Charlton Heston's son) is below par too. It's a pity, because there are some decent actors in this (Ed Harris, Bonnie Bedelia) and Max Von Sydow is a delightfully urbane presence playing Leland Gaunt.

It's the small coastal town of Castle Rock. Leland Gaunt (Max von Sydow) comes to open a store called Needful Things. He has some of the most evil Things to sell and he keeps a record of sales in his little book. Sheriff Alan Pangborn (Ed Harris) asks diner owner Polly Chalmers (Bonnie Bedelia) to marry him. Nettie Cobb (Amanda Plummer) is the waitress at the diner. Danforth Keeton III (J.T. Walsh) is the bullying businessman.This town is full of weirdly unlikeable characters. It doesn't seem to be where the movie should start with. It would be much better to have an idyllic town on the surface and the objects would bring out the ugliness. The town starts off ugly. Also the story seems set up for a serial TV show where each object can be its own episode. This movie has only one thing going for it and that's Max von Sydow. It's a movie about the villain more than any other character. That leaves the movie repeating the same tone over and over again. There isn't any surprises and there isn't any excitement. It's a very boring movie.

ALL THE LITTLE ANIMALS Aspect ratio: 2.39:1 (2.35 Research)Sound format: Dolby DigitalUntil it takes a darker turn during its latter stages, there's a quiet dignity at the heart of this unusual drama, the directorial debut of producer Jeremy Thomas, based on a novel by Walker Hamilton. Christian Bale - a long way from EMPIRE OF THE SUN and two years from American PSYCHO - plays a mentally impaired young man who runs away from his creepy stepfather (Daniel Benzali) in the wake of his mother's death and ends up in Cornwall, where he befriends an eccentric hermit (John Hurt) whose fondness for animals strikes a healing chord within Bale's damaged psyche. Together, they set out to bury the dead creatures they find around their ramshackle home in the forest, many of them killed by traffic on lonely country roads.Characterized by its magical performances (Bale is utterly convincing as the 10 year old boy trapped in a 25 year old's body) and eye-popping, panoramic vistas of the English landscape, the film offers a gentle reminder of mankind's place in the natural scheme of things, though Thomas makes his point without stooping to preachiness or obvious metaphors. In an amusing turnabout from standard Hollywood practices, this UK-lensed film features an American actor (Benzali) playing a Brit villain, the catalyst for a late-breaking plot development which some may find overly melodramatic. By turns humane, frightening and beautiful, this isn't a movie for all tastes, but adventurous viewers will be rewarded for their patience. A possible cult in the making.

If you take this film as a family comedy, it is exeptable and works, a little. But if you take this film as a strict vampire film you may be dissapointed. The plot takes a kid and his family from San Diego to Scotland and the kid (played by Jonathan Lipnicki) starts to dream of vampires. Then, he meets them and befriends one of them and gets mixed up to get them turned into humans and to evade the evil vampire killer Rookery (Jim Carter). Kids will find this film funny, adults might even have a very slight liking to it, and I didn't hate it. But I did have 2 problems with it as a vampire film in general- 1, why would anyone think that Scotland looks like this. After seeing Trainspotting, you get a feeling of Scotland actually being the lowest of the low and that two boys in the film (Ed Stoppard and Jake D'Arcy) could concievably become Renton and Begbie over time. And 2, why would so much hate be put on a vampire killer. Sure in the film the vampires are targeted by him and the targeter is the villain like "Snow Day", but remember, one films Jim Carter is another films Sir Anthony Hopkins (Bram Stoker's Dracula) or James Woods (Vampires). Overall, it's OK. B-

I was surprised at how much I liked The Little Vampire. It isn't exceptional, but in no way is it terrible. Some of the special effects are a little ropey, while I liked the story in general there may be those who may find the idea of having an American hero in a film set in Scotland a little contrived and I think it could have been a tad longer. That said, the costumes are very nice and the scenery is a delight, as is the cinematography. People may find it rather bleak, but I liked the bleakness, I think it suited the film very well. The film is well directed and written, with some witty lines and a very amusing running gag about... wait for it... vampire cows. The acting is also surprisingly good. Jonathan Lipnicki is really cute, Rollo Weeks is charming and bright, Richard E. Grant and Alice Krige are campy delights as the parents while Jim Carter is suitably unhinged as the slayer. Another thing, The Little Vampire is a rare film that doesn't patronise its audience. Overall, very enjoyable, while not being the best movie I have ever seen. 7/10 Bethany Cox 041b061a72
