 Well, i can call it cat and mouse movie but only in a single room. What a surprise? An old movie that keep me hooked. Rope is a story about a couple of friends who're trying to bring sensation (at least that is how describe it) by killing their friend and making a party after it. But they make a mistake when they invited Rupert, a man who's easily get suspicious about all. 

Here's the thing, i don't remember but i think it was happening while i watch this movie... This movie was filmed in one take didn't it? I didn't realize until half of the movie. This movie doesn't tell but it shows from the dialogue, character interaction, character expression, the beautiful camera shot (when Ruppert is trying to read what he would have done to David if he was the murderer). The movie is more intense as it progresses towards the end. All the acting was superb. God what a movie. Love it.


This is my second blog post, and I’m still just writing out my thoughts on films. but I’m really enjoying it so far.

The story follows a claustrophobic actor, Jake who got a bad luck with his acting world and his relationship. And someone offers Jake a strange gig: house-sitting and watering his plants. Oh, and watching the neighbor through a telescope. He takes the job and... The guy also introduces peeping into a girl while Jake is still at his home. But Jake finds out something is wrong when he notices a suspicious man tailing the girl he’s been watching, turning voyeurism into a possibly bigger mystery.  I don't want to spoil too much. Cause i think the less you know, the better viewing experience you will get. Brian de Palma delivers a masterclass in suspense. The long takes, the extended scenes of following, the long peeping and watching. It makes you feel exactly what Jake feels: trapped, anxious, uncertain. It’s mesmerizing. Even if the long take takes so lo...

 Today's movie: Paul source: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/39513-paul/images/posters  Jesus Christ, it was a ride. Just like the alien said. And it was. It tells a story about two guys who love comic con and they both embark on a journey when they accidentally meet an alien. So, yah that's the basic premise. Starring Simon Pegg, nick frost(old duo from Edgar wright), Kristen wiig, Seth Rogen, bill Hader, and more. This 100 minute movie will accompany you to ride along with them. It's not a new alien movie. What actually sold this movie for me is the chemistry between all the characters. I mean when will you see an alien teach a Christian girl to curse. I know It has Joe Rogan, so what else you should expect beside raunchy comedy? If I can criticize it, the first half is less tight. It all felt too rushed. How come a guy is not really surprised with alien. Of course he's surprised but there's just something missing on the first thing when they met
