The Five Senses (1999)
cold, but charming
Winter, falling leaves, wind, and coldness- those are the main elements we can get from this film. Of course, they create the atmosphere so good, together with the story and the characters. we can see 5 different story's in the film, which connected by technical things (live in the same building, work together or for each other) and the fact that they're all telling us story's about- family relationships, love, and craving for warmness. With the winter, and the great classical music, they remind us the need of the proximity between people, and inside the family. Every character, represent a sense, in a directly way, or the opposite- the lack of the sense. In the main story- a little child got lost,and it's influencing everyone- The mother, the women whom her daughter left the little girl at the park by her self, the doctor who misses his little girl and ask by the police about the misses girl,and the single women and her friend who feel it's a bad sign. The movie start with allot of sadness, (beside the cynical single), but ends with a note of optimism- and again, beside the single women, who gets a big disappointment from her men. The message- everyone wants to be loved, and to have this safe feeling that there is someone who cares for you, and return you in the same way you give him.
Fast Food Fast Women (2000)
what a great movie
Today I'm happy that I'm from Israel. This is directly connected to the fact that the director of this film is from Israel either.It really makes me proud to know that the brain who create this wonderful film,grew up here. It is a comedy about life, and all the regular components of our routine: love, sex, work, children, money, getting older... All characters are looking for love and warmness, in their boring life, and they all get connected in some way... We can find ourself in each characters, even thought it present strangeness, and something bizar.This is why I enjoyed watching the film- you can't tell what happened with the character a minute after you've seen her\him on the screen. You won't get any big ideas from the film, and you won't find a message that will make you think allot after the film ends, but- it has a positive atmosphere, and you'll get out from the cinema with a big smile, and with an optimist opinion about life.
Me, Myself & Irene (2000)
what have you done- Jim?
i haven't heard much about this film. i knew that it is a comedy, and i knew that Jim carrey is the main character there. but, it was enough! i like jim very much, i like his humor, and i think he has proved himself as an actor in his last films. but this film has spoiled all his great resume. it was so awful! first of all, there was no story! i know that it is a comedy, and it is reasonable that once a year, we'll see a funny movie, that we wouldn't think of it after it ends , and without a complicated ideas. well, it was much worse then a funny and "middle of the week" film. the story fits 5 years old kids, and the jokes too. second, the love story- which was the main idea, but was so empty, and so un-built! i think that every one in the cinema, didn't understand why she fell in love with him, and why he fell in love with her. the only element which was funny and i liked his idea, was the 3 boys that appear every 10 minutes in the film, and made me stay in my seat after all. although i find the film as a very bad one, i have to say that the music was great, and the songs were picked up with a big attention- another thing that made me stay until the movie will end. i really don't know what made Jim take a place in this film, or how he succeed to create such a boring and ridiculous film.
