Welcome to the Carnival of Cinema. Each week we display the best film-related posts from around the world. Let's see what's out.
For the second week in a row we have a cornucopia of opinion.
Starting us off is Gregory McNamee from
BRITANNICA BLOG. Over at the repository of all things smart, Mr. McNamee offers
a post on political films you might want to catch this election season.
Wha? No
Animal Farm?
For another political film post check out Sean Kelly's
review of W. over at
SEAN KELLY ON MOVIES. He also
takes a shot at Passchendaele a film only released in Canada at this time.
If you weren't blessed with the brains to make up your own mind, I say borrow some other guy's noggin.
Remember those aliens from the pilot of Star Trek, the one's with the bulbous, pulsating brains? That's how I see Gracchi over at
WESTMINSTER WISDOM. Want smart movie reviews written about movies you probably haven't seen? You've found the mother lode here. This week there are reviews of
the old documenary Farewell Topsails and
the regular ol' movie Life to the Scaffold.
From the real smart to the incredibly stupid (speaking to the movie, not the reviewer).
Donkeysosa of
POINTLESS BANTER lists
the five scenes that ruined Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It's a little like listing the five items that smell the worst at a New Jersey landfill.
Continuing with our excursion into the cinéma du stupide...
High School Musical 3: Senior Year is out there and people are paying money to see it.
MANNY THE MOVIE GUY has seen it and has a video movie review of the threequel.
Moving along, we take a look back at a film starring Reese Witherspoon and her razor-sharp chin.
Is Just Like Heaven another hollow chick flick? I have no idea. Someone who has an idea is Keira of
LOVE ROMANCE PASSION.
Missy thought
Pathology missed. Putting aside
Pathology,
Anatomy is her flick d'jour.
Is Anatomy worth the effort of sitting and staring at it? Go find out, click over to
OBSERVATIONS FROM MISSY'S WINDOW.
Next, Greg Laden heaps praise on
Bill Mahr's Religulous on
GREG LADEN'S BLOG.
"
WALL-E is a return to the original promise of animation as the driving force behind cinema." At least that's what
HRAG VARTANIAN says
If you're getting a little tired of all of the reviews, Zee has some commentary - not a review -
commentary on the new film Blindness. If you're intersted in reading her non-review commentary go over to her site
ZEE SAYS=FILM ADDICT + TEEN LIBRARIAN.
To bring things to a close this week, Tamika Murray of
PJS AND A MOVIE warms us up for the Halloween season by posting about two different witch-related films from the 1980's,
Teen Witch and
The Worst Witch.
UPDATE: We have a late entry this week. Jean Brunet was kind enough to send over his
review of the new film Pride & Glory. Check out the review on his site
SIZZLING POPCORN.
...and CUT!…and PRINT!
