Definitely better than the John Woo one. Hoffman was menacing. Scary.
Innum pakkala :think:
But I wanted to see it for Hoffman!! :)

The soundtrack has been put to good use with some stunning montages.
Forgot to add, the movie was shot in 17 days without proper permission at real places using real people based on real incidents. That makes the attempt even more worthy.
Donnie Brasco
Initial thought was that the movie was underwhelming. May be I expected something very great but after repeated viewings on tv I am sure that this is some good and different stuff. Depp is brilliant and is very much underrated. Pacino has underplayed a lot. Yes this a true story about the Gambino crime family of NY.

Read too many reviews vera. My head is overloaded with all those "readings". Padam mudinjapram i was in awe (cos of the last shot, the way it was provided to the viewers in a nonchalant way) the film ended and i saw a blue screen with two folders of same name - Cache. (I usually watch films in my DVD player using USB which has an default folder called "Cache". :P ) Idhu kooda director'oda touch nu ninaikren :lol:
Strongly recommend this film.
:thumbsup:
Now we have Jafar Panahi, Haneke and Almodovar in common, and I'm sure there are many more.
Btw Haneke much likes Almodovar, he said so in Golden globe press meet (he won best foreign lang film for "The White ribbon"). And he specially mentioned "Broken Embraces" as a fine film worthy of awards. (Oh I haven't seen it yet. but rest assured it's going to be memorable in Pedro's unique storytelling)

"Broken Embraces" was a fine film indeed. Has written Almodovar written all over that a fan would invariably like it. I would say he has mellowed down compared to his previous films, worth a watch nevertheless.
"I would say he has mellowed down compared to his previous films"

:( Immensely sensed in "Volver" as well. Not that it's unwelcome. but It's going to stay eh?! "Bad education", the one before "Volver", was tour-de-force. Marrying Hitchcock tropes to Almodovar's essentials, married by noir elements. But then again, I heard he does that in "Embraces" too. I suppose that's what the "mellowed down" part is hitting at! If so, well put (into context)!
Very true about "Volver". Yup, I guess it's going to stay! I am not able to put it properly, but i don't sense the mad-rush that i used to feel while watching All About My Mother / Bad Education. Now he is more into proper story telling, tying all the loose ends etc., (or rather unexperimental?) That Bad Education was the last film where i felt this "mad rush" (sorry, its not a proper term, but couldn't think of anything else) makes more sense as it had more auto-biographical references that any of his films.
The same with "Broken Embraces", I am not putting them here for the risk of spoilers. But he has ultimately saanju ukkaandhufied in his naarkaali.
The Fugitive(1993) - kood kood...Nalla time pass
But he has ultimately saanju ukkaandhufied in his naarkaali.

But still maintaining the overall quality. "Volver", "Embraces" etcetra are still damn good philums. I wish I could say that of another legend, who is off-late being more of a belend to his own talend (:P :cry2:) I'm talking of mighty Woody Allen, of course. :sigh2:
of course, quality needless to say. Volver's screenplay reeks genius.Quote:

Yes it is. It has a sequek or a prequel(??). Even that is an ok timepass.
