Alex l'ariete (2000)
Oh, My, Oh, My!
Oh. My. Goodness! What a (bad) movie! This one is a movie you won't easily forget, because of two things, the first being the amount of laughs you get by seeing Tomba "acting" (to be remembered his shout when a Group of criminals kills his colleague and friend); the second being the beauty of Michelle Hunziker who's actually better than Tomba (and it's not so difficult). I have to say another thing about this movie: Actors (well... the people that are supposed to be Actors) are not the only ones who failed. A special mention must go to the director and "props makers" for giving the worst special effects aver. What can I add? This movie is so bad that it's actually good (for a laugh).
Sucker Punch (2011)
Love it or hate it.
Old people use to say "truth is right in the middle". Well, forget this motto when you're done with watching this movie, because you'll love it (like I do, lo-lo-love it like I do) or hate it (like most people seem to do). But why people hate this movie? I don't know, actually, because this movie does what a film is supposed to do: it amuses and teaches something. OK, maybe some people are shocked by the fact that some of the girls are kinda naked. But, hey, this movie is settled in a "pleasure house": of course women are kinda undressed. However the girls in this movie are sexy and there's a huge difference between sexy and undressed. The fact that unnerved some people is that this movie tries to be like a psycho-thriller or a psycho-movie (like Inception or Shutter Island, for example). Some scene, in fact, may recall those movies but this one is not like them, because it isn't plain or straight like the above-mentioned films: all in this movie is an enormous allegory of life and everything is symbolical. Let's think about the old man who teaches Babydoll how to escape from the mental hospital (or pleasure house), for example: he is an allegory of our inner force. Using this allegory system, Snyder has the opportunity to make clear references to some movies he likes: for example the first battle of Babydoll recalls Tarantino's Kill Bill, while the battle with the dragon is undoubtedly a reference to the fantasy genre. Concluding: this movie is a great movie, but it is not cinema of essay, since this movie has been made to entertain the audience, not to astound Juries at Festivals.
