July Movies
Django Unchained- disturbing. good, but disturbing. I'm usually ok with Tarantino violence but something was just too much this time. I think i would have liked it a little better if there was more of his training and the movie had been split in two like Kill Bill. still, a 6. Much Ado About Nothing: Shakespeare, Whedon-style! I liked it. a lot. He threw in a new scene where Benedick and Beatrice hooked up pre-war, to explain their rancor. Beatrice seems a little harpyish because of it; she becomes the scorned woman, which I didn't like so much. It also makes the accusations against Hero a little weird: is it, or is it not, ok for women to have sex in this world? Anyway, it did succeed in making me think, for a moment, that maybe they were going to change it to a tragedy. Benedict, Beatrice, Leonato, and Don Pedro are so fabulous and really sell the anger/revenge aspects. a 6. Oz the Great and Powerful: bleh. absolutely the worst movie i've watched this yea
