Gosh, this was one weird-ass movie! Ewan McGregor and Ryan Gosling were fantastic in it, don't get me wrong, and even Naomi Watts wasn't her usual bland self, yet it was still SO WEIRD!

I know that some "smart" viewers figured out early on what was going on but it wasn't until the last five minutes or so that I finally got it! It became obvious why Henry made Sam the star in his vision and why people kept saying to Sam that he - Henry - was watching him, them. Because he literally was. Though why did the bits and pieces from Henry's vision flash through Sam's head at the very end? Or did the scene where Sam invited Lila out for a cup of coffee still take place in Henry's head? Was it his very last thought and that's why we saw the Sam/Lila scenes flash through Henry's mind? Does it mean it didn't really happen? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! *tears her hair out*

Sheesh on a pogo stick what a completely whacko film! It reminded me of Dream House - which is another movie that starred Naomi Watts, go figure. Hm.

Trailers seen:

Elysium - look, I love sci-fi and maybe I'm totally wrong in this case, but gosh, it looks so boring! Yet another "let's overthrow the system and topple the rich!" shtick. Not even Matt Damon and Jodie Foster make it look interesting. I guess, if there won't be anything else in the cinema that week, I might go and see it, but right now, I don't get what people are so excited about. Nothing we haven't seen done a dozen times over, several times this very year!

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters - if I were a kid, I would swallow it with a spoon. But since I'm not a kid... eh.

White House Down - several months ago, I was excited. Now... eh. I think I will wait for the DVDs. IMHO, the trailer for Olympus Has Fallen looked much better.

Wolverine - I do want to see this in the cinema but the first Wolverine movie was a huge bust, boring as hell and whatnot, and I'm not that big a fan of Wolverine. Actually, I wish they would stop forcing him in every X-Men movie! But it's X-Men. I will go and see it in the cinema in 14 days.

DVDs bought:

Hollywoodland - reading the summary, it sounded very noir. And I like Adrien Brody. And it cost me $2.5 only, so...

Stay - looks like a supernatural thriller with Ryan Gosling and Ewan McGregor. That's pretty much all I needed to know :P

Trainspotting - yes, I haven't seen the movie yet. Not really my cuppa but everybody seems to rave about it and it cost me only $1, so...

Unstoppable - gosh, GOSH, they had the movie in the sales bin! Chris Pine and Denzel Washington! I have wanted to buy it for ages and now I got it for $4 only! I love it when Datart has a sale!

Went to see Gangster Squad and LOVED IT! Gosh, I loved it so much. I'll be definitely getting it on DVD and maybe even buying the book. It was so good and surprisingly funny. I especially liked the friendship between O'Mara and Jerry. And the romance between Jerry and Grace. And when you think it's based on a true story!

Spoilers! )

Gosh, I really need to watch more Ryan Gosling movies. He's so gorgeous. And I think I might even get Young Hercules, just for him. Though I was really surprised by his very boyish voice :P I now can't wait to see the new Terrence Malick movie - I hope he and Michael Fassbender play lovers, that would be awesome.

Gangster Squad looks really good! And with this cast...



... who could resist it, right? Oh my gosh, Ryan Gosling is so, so good looking. I remember him as Young Hercules - with The Hobbit's Fili playing Iolaus! - and already there he was incredibly gorgeous. But back then, he was a boy. Now, he's a man. And in this movie... Hot damn!

(And yup, still hoping that he and Michael Fassbender will play lovers in Terrence Malick's latest movie!)

Vulture posted an interesting graphic that proves that the careers of JGL, LaBeouf and Gosling follow pretty much the same curve: link (larger pic available there). It made me want to re-watch Young Hercules! Loved that show :)
