REVIEW(***)
If James Bond retired from his carrer and picked up his
most favorite Bond girl for robbering job...what would he do...?
I expected such like feeing the movie though.
The movie lack of story telling,hero's character.
Brosnan's character is more approoiate Thomas Crown Affair
I thought his image of season is not ,summer and end of spring.
(Spring reminds me his youthday party peath Reminton Steel
I think...he came from Ireland,I can't imagine tropical image from
Brosnan. Harrelson is much better than Pierce.
In a way...D.Cheadle is all-season type of actor.
He is able to change his type any kinds of season by all mean.
Anyway...story-developtemt is ordinaly, not surplisizing sequence.
It would be easy to imagine why Max wanted to steal the third of
diamond and why Stan told him.
But part of scripts, I thought not-sence of humor.
For examle why Stan and Max went out on a sea and fished on shark?
Needed? I don't think so.
There were a few sloppy comedy touch sequence in the movie.
I don't think they'd better to cut them.

REVIEW(****)
I'd like to watch musical though now musical was already finished.
We hope revival anyway...
Based on the famous '60s unit Diana Ross and Supremes and
Mortown also episode of 1981 Broadway musical comes Dreamgirls
When Dreamgilrs began performance in '81 Broadway, Jennifer Holiday,
who played musical version of Effie, she got tired of how long kept herself
one musical and she refused offering.
After she got back the workshop of Dreamgirls, her roll was downsized
by director before she came back, furthermore, role of Deana draw like main role.
Holiday went mad again,she flet away 2 days before workshop for investors.
Screenwriter Micheal Benett faced which was better looking for second Effie
or purswade Holiday. Finally Holiday came back to Broadway.
The movie Dreamgirl adopted essence of real episode of Holiday I thought.
Consider about all of episode why Deana stole the limelight away over half of movie.
I thought still, America can find and gave a chance for all of young men
and women to be a star, not mention who is beautiful.

When Effie was stolen her original song One Night Only for Disco version,
I got that it's ironic message nowaday's music world.
Recently, there are a few "original song".
Most song are remix, cover, revivals.., it's hard to find original splendid song.

For men's side Deana looks "woman easy to treat and beautiful".
For women's side, she's difficult to find her way to live.
On the other hand Effie looks "so strong and twisted difficult to treat"
But inside of her "she's looking for someone who rely on her."
Taste and thinking was different between men and women.

Side actors were great, I watched Oscar performance on TV show.
Keith Robinson, you're Green Ranger of Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue
Oh,in Japan, it really rare, child action hero actor can play
mainstream Hollywood movie, great.

REVIEW(****)
As you know Denzel won the Oscar first time
as the best actor and second time as African American
since Sydney.
Even though such like movie I didn't watch it in
movie thether at that time.
What can I say...image of Denzel was "reliable-well-mannered brother".
not like this movie's Alonzo.
When he got the role I thought it was self-confidence??
5 years later I watched on TV,it was good.
Denzel suceeded to take advantage of his image which came
from his movies used to starring.
Alonzo used to have strong sence of justise however
he stick to sence of professional then he throw away
his sence of justice reluctantly.
I wounder why LAPD was more scare than NYPD.
Futhemore Alonzo was more scare than drug-dealer.
Drawing dark side of LAPD was based on a true police
scandal which name was Lambert Scandal in USA.
It was shocking scandal that inside of collaspe in
police department was reveled in USA like this movie.
Ethan Hawke provides excellent backup but Denzel steals the show.

REVIEW(***)
Based on a film of Infanal Affair.
But recently Hollywood brock buster movie remaked too much
like this movie.
Even though acting was really good.
Location of movie was Boston and NY, director Martin
sticked to gathered actor who's hometown were Boston or
NY north side of USE other than DiCaprio.
Director and Screen writed tried to keep the
basic structure of the original,it's good.
But they might pass by what's the point of movie.
Based movie show respect sequel of God father.
So sequel of Infernal Affairhas three.
Director Martin got together all sequel in the movie.
Editing of the movie was sloppy, I hate say this.
As Billy was broken his arm with praster, there was
no "work" in his praster. What's for that scene?
Based movie, there was a beeper of Morse.
I thought anacronic idea was kind of fresh nowadays.
And why Billy determinded to be a cop.
Based story told where Billy's roots.
He was born as illegitimate child of big name.
Only one thing, original and remake movie used
same sitiation.
When Billy and Colin faced his dangerous situation,
Billy handed on a envelope that he reveled his real identity
Madoryn however Colin stick to hide his identify.

Anyway...remake was kind of sloppy for asian watche,
excellent acting helped this movie.
Dicapio was the best when it comes to play
man who was in dire in stair.
  Wahlberg and Damon easy to reveled their natural accent I thought.
In the movie Costello was killed Colin though
real model of Costello, Whity Balger still has lived.
I don't know whethter Nicholson could play him or not...
I thought the most excellent actor in the movie was
Martin Sheen. In spite of his character was not active
he played excellent supporting role.

Surprisingly,Doug had left the message her answering phone

REVIEW(****)

Oscar winner Denzel had screw up J.Brackaimer's
SF producing movie Virtuocityco-starring with
Russel Crowe also he was Oscar winner.
Even both performance were splendid,they cound't
do nothing in front of sloppy script and CG.
I wish "no more Virtuocity,Denzel and
this movie co-star with another my favorite actor
James Caviezel, if he would screw up, I wouldn't
be able to get back honestly.
Come,on,Brackaimer,no thanks was my feeling before I watch it.

After I watched it...casting was good especially actress.
Paura Hatton who played mysterious woman Crea.
I was happy to see gentlemanly,sly but hot-heart Denzel
and Caviezel found his new stage of acting like old French
actor A.Delon. He made use of his mysterious eyes for playing
villains.

After I watched Dejavu,think about why Brackeimer
determinded to buy it.
Petern of his movie were typical "brockbuster-movie".
We could say "amusement,lack of taiste movies".
He wanted to see change his style.
In the movie, Denzel look back Crea's house before chase Orstad
He found "nothing changed before he come Crea's house."
It meant if he wouldn't say "come with me", Crea would kill anyway.
He bet his fortune whether he live or not and change hislife or not.
It was good...but his hero style wouldn'change when he started
movie produce J=M=Vincent movie Defianceabout 20 years ago.
or TOPGUNOOOPS, this movie was producer and director were
totally same of this movie??

REVIEW(***)
Angeline Jolie, gives us the female version of "Indiana Jones"
who is specialized any Degital tool.
We could found Angie's sence of fasion so clealy.
What's the difference between another actress and Angie.
I thought she can't wear warming color which connected flowers.
such as pink,red,melow-purple,sky-blue and green.
On the other hand, she would be beautiful if she were monotone
or color which reminds us developing countries such us
brick-color or silver.

She is really "born-to -play" actress.
Of cause before she got any role, she would prepare her role.
For example, thie movie, she trained her body.
Her father J.Voight wasn't type of "born-to-play".
I thought He prioritized work over maritage state or family
when he was young.

Jolie is daughter of second wife of Voight.
Regardness of that he cound't keep relationship.
Before she co-work with father, she told
"Nothing gave from my father because my mother rased me not father"
For them, playing family relatioship which has been looking for
for a long time was cluel.

As action sequelces, not only Angie but also Daniel who would be
going to new James Bond well.
