The Island
(2005)

if the movie would've been more of a cliché i would have gotten a heart attack
If you liked the Island you probably don't mind seeing the same thing over and over again. That's what makes it so terrible. It starts out interesting, but towards the end... god! You have absolutely every action movie cliché: the fall from the building, the cool motorcycle chase, and wait, the greatest surprise of all, the characters fall in love! now who on earth would have expected that to happen?!?! oh... and at the end of the movie they stay together in the window, in front of a beautiful sunset, how... disgustingly the same happy ending you see every damn time! If you want to watch something that's worth seeing, avoid the island. THe special effects aren't even that impressing. Besides, if you've seen any other movie of the type, it'll be just like seeing this one too, only with scarlet Johansen.

Seeing Other People
(2004)

Good relationship movie.
Well, the movie did turn out a lot better than i expected. It's not boring and it's not unoriginal. It's really not a silly romantic comedy. The situations the characters put themselves in are very unusual, of course, we're still talking about a movie, but the main characters are indeed plausible. Donald is, of course, an exaggeration, but he's just a pawn in the movie, a means to prove something. The ending isn't one of those ridiculously happy, always the same, moral containing pieces of crap you can usually see in movies of the genre. I genuinely liked it and i'm hard to please when it comes to this particular genre of movies. It's worth a watch. Besides, it's better directed than other movies, the story line always stands up, the characters themselves stand up. And they do not experience this miraculous change and love is not revealed to them like a holly god given artifact, yada, yada. At the end of it all you actually see yourself going through it all, the movie makes you feel something, you may even learn a thing or two. It's not the usual hope-producing, tissue moistening idiocy. It's a good movie, not a consolation prize for teary women around the world.
