Re: Reviews & Ratings

Why do you keep summing up the films in one sentences? That's not a review, that's a brief synopsis.

Well, what's the maindifference between a review & synopsis
just curious?

Well, then perhaps you shouldn't watch a film when you're half asleep. I'm sure these filmmakers did not spend their time and money to make a film to have people fall asleep to them.

ya Perhaps lol

Re: Reviews & Ratings

Okay, here's the thing. I'm not trying to be mean, but you asked for my help once so I want to help you again.

You're not writing your thoughts when you review films -- you're giving us a synopsis. I told you, I remember, that you should tell us what the film is about, briefly. You are doing that, although it reads like the back of the DVD cover, but that's all you give us. I only tell you this because I'd like to know what you thought, rather than read a synopsis and see you rating.

Instead, why don't you tell us what you thought about the film. You can say something like, "A Serious Man is about an unfortunate man whose life takes a turn for the worse -- everything, literally, starts heading in the wrong direction. I love the approach of the film where they have created a character who does nothing but fail." You see? I told you a bit about the film then shared my thoughts.

Secondly, you need to realize that just because we all have our own opinion about a film doesn't mean we are all authorities. A Serious Man was written and directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, arguably two of the best directors working right now, who won big at the Academy Awards with No Country for Old Men.

I feel like you think the film was a cheap effort, but it wasn't. I'm not saying you have to like it, but you have to be aware that this is not that kind of film. These are very well-known and extremely talented filmmakers. If it comes off as boring, confusing, depressing, dry -- perhaps it's because you don't get it, and that's what I think happened here.

Again, I'm not telling you to like the film. I think another reviewer would have felt the film wasn't for him, but would have realized how well structured it was, how terrific the cinematography was, how great the performances were, and so on. I feel like you were distanced throughout the whole film because you thought it was something else, or perhaps you were half asleep... and I realized this all through your three sentences.

Oh, and by the way, the film is not about a man who ignores his family.

Re: Reviews & Ratings

A Serious Man was one of my favorite films last year, so after you're done seeing it, can you tell me what you thought?
