The Virgin Suicides 1999,  R)
The Virgin Suicides
I was expecting much more from this movie. Sofia Coppola's movies are always beautiful in terms of photography. However, it always seems to me that something is missing. And some, let's say, "teen elements" seemed too silly to me.

The Lisbon girls all end up committing suicide. There seems to be a strong connection between how they are being raised and this sad outcome. Their mother is presented as a castrating presence that confines the girls to an artificial, burdensome, lonely and joyless existence. Lux's story made me particularly sad. It seems to me that she is the most reckless not only because it hangs over her the suffocating miasma of severe parental constraints but also because of her disillusionment with the outside world (personified by Trip). At least, that is my interpretation.

Penelope 2006,  PG)
Penelope
This is a cute movie, very adequate for the little ones too. Penelope is an adorable character, and despite having everyone telling her not to do it, she ends up facing the world. She has this curse and, to get rid of it, she thinks she has to marry a rich guy. This is the point where the film fails more: despite her escape from the altar, she agrees to marry someone she doesn't love and vice versa. It's bad pass on to kids and teens this false romanticism of, on the very wedding day, fleeing into the arms of the person you really like is a very pretty thing to do. However, i guess, Penelope realizes this when she says she likes to be just like she is and, then, her own words and her self-acceptance break the curse, not anyone else's actions. That's very real-life-like.

The Young Victoria 2009,  PG)
42
Kung Fu Panda 2 2011,  PG)
43
Gnomeo and Juliet 2011,  G)
Gnomeo and Juliet
Ok, we all knew that this story isn't new. But, even so, resembles too much to "Pocahontas" when Benny sees Gnomeo and Juliet together and in the following moments. Furthermore, the idea of assigning dog caractheristics to a caracther who isn't a dog is becoming far too exploited. We already saw that in the elephant of "Tarzan", and that idea is present too in the horse of "Tangled". Despite all this, the movie is quite entertaining, and is very adequate for the little ones.

The Wedding Singer
I watched this one a couple of days ago. It's not awesome and isn't hilarious, but it's cute. I liked the part when Robbie goes to the job interview: "No, sir, I have no experience but I'm a big fan of money. I like it, I use it, I have a little. I keep it in a jar on top of my refrigerator. I'd like to put more in that jar. That's where you come in."
