Con Air

A movie with Nic Cage, John Malkovich, Steve Buscemi, and John Cusack is guaranteed to be good. The explosions were a bit much, and the ending went on for way too long. Cage's accent annoyed me for the first and fourth quarters of the movie, but I actually liked it in the middle. I puked about 8 times after I watched this and now I feel absolutely terrible and have a fever of 100.3, but I don't blame the movie.

Delirious

It's a little slow at first, but I found it more interesting at every point than parts of The Bank Job; maybe only because Steve Buscemi makes any scene worth watching. I loved the score and the soundtrack. It's a little weird that there were no attractive people in it, not even one, but I guess that's what happens when you make a movie for $2 million (or was it three?). The lead actress reminded me of Alex Borstein, which was really distracting since she was supposed to be pretty. But, that aside, it was honest and satirical and fantasy all in the right places, so I enjoyed it.

Final Fantasy - The Spirits Within

Reservoir Dogs

Very obviously a first effort.

Paris, je t'aime

This was hard to get into because the first few stories are about meeting and nothing else, and I felt like they weren't complete. It turned out alright, though, with lots of recognizable people. The best exchange in the movie is when someone asks Natalie Portman's character if she's an actress. Answer: "I'm trying to be one."
