my very brief thoughts on.... 'Anatomy of Hell'

well, well, well.... Catherine Breillat you've done it again.... you've written another pretentious, overly hyped piece of crap.... at least this one only ran a bit over an hour.... i've sat through three of your films now an i can honestly say i'm not a fan.... and i don't understand your place in cinema.... maybe i'm watching the wrong films of yours....? perhaps i don't understand them....? (i kind of doubt it.) or perhaps they're just garbage....? just because something is provocative and the people talk like overly educated hipsters doesn't make it art.... and just because you include XXX rated nudity and sex, doesn't make it high art.... i've seen films that include hard core scenes and they made sense with the story.... in your movies, it seems like you do it just to shock and to give yourself a name....
to everyone else who may see this movie or 'Romance' or 'A Real Young Girl'.... stop yourself before you start.... or watch it and see if you agree with what i'm saying....? 'Anatomy of Hell' is OnDemand right now on Netflix.... i personally have seen enough of her work now that i can say i'm not a fan and i've given her every opportunity to make me one.... she's going to continue making movies and she's going to continue getting praise and i'm going to continue ignoring them.... ah well.... so be it.

if you want something sexually explicit with bad dialogue, watch a porn.

my very brief thoughts on.... 'Someone's Knocking At The Door'

i will never know exactly what possesed me to watch this movie.... and i was so happy when it was over.... there was nothing redeeming about this movie.... there was nothing interesting about this movie.... there was nothing worthwhile about this movie.... it wasn't a pleasure to watch.... the script was godawful.... the directing was subpar at best.... the actors were horrific.... the plot was z-grade porno with a bit of blood and gore.... i don't even want to dignify this movie by explaining the plot (if there was one).... basically, it was a lot of gross out stuff and drugs.... the ending was predictible and lame as all get out.... i don't even know how in the hell this movie got funding.... let's hope this put the nail in the coffin for anyone involved from every making a movie again.... i'd rather watch beige paint dry than watch this again.... less than 1 out of 5 stars, if that was possible....!

rather than watch this.... get a vasectomy.

my brief thoughts on.... 'Confessions of a Porn Addict'

i don't know what it is with me and mocumentaries this weekend.... but this was my second one.... a very tragically comedic look at porn and all of it's dangers.... it makes most porn lovers look like boy scouts in comparision.... this man really loves his porn.... to the point that he loses everything because of it.... the movie has many ups and downs.... but a strong storyline throughout with a good 1st, 2nd and 3rd act.... the main character actually has an arc in his personality and you feel for him and all of his troubles....

Mark is obsessed with all things pornographic.... he sometimes watches things on the TV, his computer and his laptop all at the same time.... he has an extensive collection of DVD's and videos as well as the first book and 16 mm movie he ever saw when he was a kid.... this man loves his porn.... but when his wife gets tired of him being so self centered and focused on the sex industry and the fact that he gets caught masturbating in a video store.... she leaves him.... he has no job and the threat of jail looms over him.... so he enlists the help of his filmaker friends to make a documentary about him so that maybe the courts won't throw him in jail.... which is his biggest fear.... however, along the way he finds out the wife is in the porn business now and the search is on to find her and reconcile.... i found myself really enjoying this film despite the subject matter.... it was presented in a tasteful way.... if you can say that.... and it was very entertaining.... i would give it 3 out of 5 stars.... mainly because the ending was kind of a let down.... the build up was so much that i guess i expected a little more out of the filmakers.... which were actually the writers and directors of the movie and also the stars.... one of whom you may recogonize from the short lived show 'Kenny vs. Spenny'.... Spencer Rice.... if you love your porn, you'll enjoy this.... it just might make you feel a little less creepy.

if you like this: get on the internet as you know you want to find some porn of your own now
