REVIEW(****)
Before I watched this movie coming I read novel
of Man on Fire Yeah It was good.
At that time For Creasy, J=M= Vincent was the most appropriate
However Denzel got it, he was greater than JMV, Woo.
As far as playing action sequence concerned JMV was
not possible. But novel's setting Creasy was alcohol abused,
bellying, slob ex-CIA assassin.
So he screw up to brought off Pita from kidnapper finally
Pita killed kidnapper. -it was just half of the story-
Then Creasy cure and trained himself and got back his
all of his ability and got his revenge.
Most of people who didn't read novel, they thought revenge
sequence would be too long but for fan of novel, it's
important to sequence to revenge.
What did Creacy think about the family which was about to
collapse if someone kidnapped Pita for profit?
I was shocked case in kidnapping for ransom in Mexico.
Which was more important you kid or your life?
I wanna point this movie at Japanese middle age mothers
who are comfident with their family and themselves.
Denzel had good works,I thought Training Days,Out of Time
were just prepare for this movie.

Funning was better as same as Denzel.
Walken supported Denzel,he didn't wanted to villain in this movie.
It was good effort I thought. But M.Roucke where were you?

REVIEW(***)
Recently, heros of action movie categorized
really cool and strong who have all of things or
comedians or dramatically points.
So where should another action hero go?
If the action movie would go toward like that,
action movies which we can see movie theater,
would be boring.
In this way, Jean Claude Van Damme in this movie
had good work I thought.
He likes play double role and tag with European
actors and oriental directors.
For director, it was a first Hollywood movie.
Japanese ad-copy was really good -Van Damme Died-
You know what I mean?
The problem of his double role movie were diffusive.
He found the idea why don't you get rid of another one
top of the story? It was nice idea.
Anyway...tag with European actors and his action was
good. I think it was recommended his "double role movie"
I've ever seen.

REVIEW(****)
First of all, I love sequel of ZORO and I like
action movie which directed by M.Cambell.
His direting points they are clealy and dramatic,
not sloppy,totally diffrent point of J.Brackheimer film.
I thought it was success film considering for Spilberg
(Producer was Spilberg).
Anyway... for me, A.Delon was best actor for acting
ZORO, after I watched it, my image didn't change.
A.Hopkins ZORO reminded me D.Feabunks first ZORO,
Banderas ZORO reminds me T.Power ZORO and Delon's
another black mask hero movie La Tulip Noir.
Also we should mention to say it was first movie
Spanish actor played ZORO.
So, there were high points, in this movie such as
dance sequence,riding horses.
If I could allow to complain this movie,action by
fencing was much poweful Alain Delon ZORO than this one.

REVIEW(****)
I was attracted and fastinated last half of this movie
than first half of this movie.
The first half of movie,a lady who has been abandonted
her family and a boxing gym owner who has estranged his
family for a long time,they got to know through boxing and
aspired to becoming a champion.
To becoming a champion,they wanna proof their identify their
society which always resist them.
A half of this movie told what they wanna have.
Director C.Eastwood draw it clealy and carmly.
Honestly,I had an similer experience someone like Maggie.
I got her feeling why she was able to find Frankie and why
was she so worried to leaving Frankie someday.
 I was moved the scene,once Frankine released Maggine.
He sent her skillful manager Sam but he had a fixed fight for
Maggie.Frankie got mad and decided to take bake and said like
"This is my fighter!"
I was really impressed than last scene.
Even though she straight minded, she isn't depended mind.
After she wasn't able to do boxing,she never depend Frankie.
She tried to make a impression Frankie as a boxer.
In the last scene,Maggie finally knew what Mo.Csera. means.
She was able to find that she was loved by someone and
someone who loved her never left alone...

REVIEW(*****)
When I was surplised J.Feller played Lautrec in Moulin Rouge
('54), he played complecated characted.
On the other hand, Gerard played young died Bohemian
Modi diamic and sensitivity.
In spite of the movie story was matter-of-fact approach but
I cound't take my eye's off the screen.
Probabry it was under my mother's inspiration.
My mother is oilpainter even style was totally different.
When Gerard played that he tried to sell his drawing
in the cafes, but never sell it.
I shouted "I want buy the drawing of Modi!"
But he wanted to sell ordinary people who inspired or moved
his picture.
Not only this are but also nowadays, dealers art collectors
thought before they buy them,
"Those artist might be famous in the future..."
For artists, it's insulting things not hornor.
In the movie,Modi visited an American weathy to sell his
pictures.
His dealer Sboro,it prefer sell now rather than finding
by Morel.
But Modi found the American just collected famous pictures.
It's couldn't help it Morel found Modi will famous but
After he dead.
The Last scene was really cruel.

Shortly after WW1 1919 Monparnasse Paris
There were lots of nameless young men who

In spite of Picasso was able to sold his
drawing so high prise at cafe La Ronde
,representive cafe of Ecole De Paris,
Modigliani never able to sell his drawing there.
Utrillo,Sutine,Kisling were also poor as same as
Modi and they couldn't stop drug and drunk.
But they were friends of arts.
At that time every artists who gathered at cafe,
who were lookling forward to see Salon De Artestes

Everybody was looking forward to see Modi and Picasso.

REVIEW(*****)
Monparnasse 19forcused relationship of
between Modi and his lovers such as Beatris or
Jeannne and between Modi and his art dealers.
There was no scene Modi draw Jeanne.
Just director,J.Beckel draw why effort of Modi
didn' admitted his era.
On the contraly this movie,Modiglianidraw
frendship of Modi among representive artists such
as Utrillo,Kisling,Souting who had felt worry
in their future in spite of they had dreams.
Also they envy suceeded artist Picasso who
stoled type of art from his ex-friends
though he couldn't stole type of art from Modi.
Also this movie draw biography of Modi and
why Modi was againsted his marriage father of Jeanne.
There were impressed scenes and wiped my tears
because my mother is paiter who had exhibition many times.
I know how difficult to held one-person's exhibition.
In the movie Picasso insulted Modi first day of
exhibition day. I got how rude as an artist.
I don't know that Picasso did it or no,Modi angry
about why did he changing type of art after
Picasso stole another artist.
But Modi respected art of Picasso.
Eventually they competited Salon De Artelist
I wiped my tears when then faced their campas.
Even they were poor,rich,genious or not famous or not
they take a risk to get their name in their future.
After Modi got his name...his life went to heaven.
It was sad? Which is sad or happy Picasso or Modi?
Modi and Picasso, both were famous artist but Modi
was loved by everybody...
When this movie's plan came up, director wanted to
play Modi,Al Pacino but this movie plan was left
10 years. After 10 years Andy got it through his anent.
Then he decided to play it.

REVIEW(***)
Probably I had similer kinds of stories.
Even I haven't asked someone for a date though been
asked soneone for a date someone like Antoine.
All of the men who like Antoine flet who hear my
deseaces( Even it's not AIDS anyway).
My surroundings women who already got married, rush me
like "You'd better to get married or find a men."
or "Settle down for your family".
But they don't know any require.
Most women who rush me like that don't know of cause
I don't wanna tell about that such like person anyway,
To work out his idea his role,Crowe began to study how to
my deseaces.Like this movie, even though men said
I love you 1000 times they flet somewhere,even they
wanna stay with them when they were ill.
This movie just draw the true story which appear somewhere.
