Lime & Vinegar (2024)
Great atmosphere
I love the atmosphere they created in this movie, the whole story has such a feel to it. This is one of those movies where you think about it years later and smile but maybe you don't even remember the story or what happened you just remember how it made you feel. This movie made me laugh and smile and I was very happy at the end how it all turned out. It is one of those movies that has a very nice feeling to it and creates its own unique atmosphere and environment.
The story is very slow to unfold and there is not much of a story in the traditional sense. Not the kind most audiences are used to seeing, but it is not about that. It is about a feeling and taking a look into the world of these characters. Personally I feel like I could watch these women cleaning all day long.
Elena (2011)
Spellbinding
From the very first frame of this film I was drawn in. The filmmakers did something amazing that I am not sure I even understand completely. It is absolutely incredible how it works. This is what I am talking about: the film starts out very slow. It is several minutes before we even see any action of any kind. People slowly begin to wake up and go about their day.
It seems like it would be very boring to watch. But it is not at all. In fact it is quite the opposite. It is completely mesmerizing and intriguing. It is done in such a way that I have never seen before, although I could not even begin to describe to you what is good about it. It is just a pure hypnotic joy to watch this slow-moving drama as we very slowly get into the lives of these characters. It is truly spellbinding.
Status Update (2018)
Mediocre
STATUS UPDATE is a mediocre that runs a little bit longer then I would have liked but I managed to stick it out to the end. It is not the kind of movie that I would ever like to watch again nor is it the one I would recommend to my friends but I will add that it is not terrible. It was mildly entertaining at times. Certainly enough so that I watched the whole thing and was not too bored although I did not give it much of a though afterward and it is doubtful I will even remember it a year from now.
