Filed under Comedy, Comedy Drama, HOLLYWOOD

Synopsis:
Smart, beautiful and headstrong, Alexis is the girl of Dustin’s dreams. But after only five weeks of dating, the love-struck Dustin is coming on so strong that Alexis is forced to slow things down–permanently. Devastated and desperate to get her back, Dustin turns to his best friend, Tank, the rebound specialist. A master at seducing–and offending–women, Tank gets hired by freshly dumped guys to take their ex-girlfriends out on the worst date of their lives–an experience so horrible it sends them running gratefully back to their beaus. But when Tank works his magic on Alexis, he ends up meeting the challenge of a lifetime. Alexis is the first girl who knows how to call his bluff, and Tank soon finds himself torn between his loyalty to Dustin and a strange new attraction to his best friend’s girl.

The Duchess (2008)

September 16, 2008 by omprakash  
Filed under Action Thriller, Drama, HOLLYWOOD, Romantic Comedy

Synopsis:

Long before the concept existed, the Duchess of Devonshire, Georgiana Spencer, was the original “It Girl.” Like her direct descendent Princess Diana, she was ravishing, glamorous and adored by an entire country. Determined to be a player in the wider affairs of the world, she proved that she could out-gamble, out-drink and outwit most of the aristocratic men who surrounded her. She helped usher in sweeping changes to England as a leader of the forward-thinking Whig Party. But even as her power and popularity grew, she was haunted by the fact that the only man in England she seemingly could not seduce was her very own husband, the Duke. And when she tried to find her own way to be true to her heart and loyal to her duty, the resulting controversies and convoluted liaisons would leave all of London talking

Review & Summary :

The scandalous rise and fall of the Georgina, Duchess of Devonshire. Like Princess Diana, her direct descendent, she was beautiful, glamorous and adored by the public.

Keira Knightley will play the 18th century aristocrat Georgiana, duchess of Devonshire. An ancestor of Princess Di, she lived an extravagant, profligate and promiscuous life of political and romantic intrigue, becoming an important powerbroker amid Britain’s ruling elite but also running up catastrophic gambling debts. She was alternately feted and reviled, and widely caricatured by the popular press.

Summary :

Many rock bands have a moment when they flirt with cinema, but the best efforts are not slick productions like “Purple Rain” or “The Wall.” They’re more like the Monkees’ “Head,” say, or Led Zeppelin’s “Song Remains the Same”: endearingly ragged projects, destined for cult status. For the Oklahoma group the Flaming Lips, that movie is “Christmas on Mars.”

There are no musical performances on screen, but many appearances by band members, including the singer Wayne Coyne (as a horned alien) and Steven Drozd (as a haunted astronaut in a claustrophobic red-planet outpost). Actors like Fred Armisen, from “Saturday Night Live,” and Adam Goldberg, as well as Isaac Brock of the band Modest Mouse, also have roles.

The story — I think — is that oxygen is running out on Christmas Eve; Mr. Coyne, who also directed, arrives in a glowing orb (he says nothing, ensuring maximum mystique) and is persuaded by Mr. Drozd to don a Santa suit. But forget plot. It’s all about textures: black-and-white images with psychedelic bursts; dashes of David Lynch, the ’70s midnight movie “Dark Star” and “2001”; an echo of “The Wizard of Oz”; and, in a riff on maternity, maybe an iota of “The Matrix,” abetted with homemade-looking but sometimes lyrical effects.

As for the soundtrack, fans of the excellent Lips album “Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots” will know the dreamy ambience to expect. Dude, pass the munchies.

Review /Summary :-

Canesada de Besar Sapros (aka Tired of Kissing Frogs [US]) follows the story of Martha (Ana Sarradilla), a young interior designer who decides the best approach to remedy the heartbreak caused by her cheating bastard of an ex-boyfriend is to potentially break some hearts herself. She decides that if men can be “womanizers,” then she can beat them at their own game by becoming a “menizer” with the help of an online dating website called “Tired of Kissing Frogs.”

After enjoying the initial exhilaration from her multiple suitors and whirlwind rendezvous, Martha soon finds herself a tad polarized from love. True to romantic comedy form, she finally realizes Prince Charming has been right under her nose the entire time, but her actions may have gone one leap too far.

Tired of kissing frogs? Well, I’m tired of predictable romantic comedies. The film is a flurry of comical over-the-top antics and one-liners that don’t particularly promote deep thought, but they at least keep the audience mostly awake.

The story becomes dull and dawdling quite soon as it lingers too long on Martha’s many men and her repetitive adventures surrounded by the dazzling backdrop of Mexico City. Nevertheless, the film maintains constant visual interest by utilizing jump cuts and moving music montages.

In spite of the predictability of the plot, Canesada de Besar Sapros presents a fresh and funny cast with an archetypal but amusing troupe of supporting sideshow characters. Brimming with personalities such as the head case of a psychologist neighbor, the flirtatious gay best friend and the confidant, quiet but inconspicuously kinky coworker, the film delivers a laugh-out-loud ensemble that offers Serradilla the perfect support.

Serradilla, the star of the current Mexican version of Desperate Housewives, draws the audience in with her bubbly, endearing qualities and character arc as she learns to love again with the help (or should I say hindrance) of the online dating site. On the other hand, Martha’s eventual love interest is Xavier the aspiring actor working at Martha’s uncle’s coffee shop. Played by José María de Tavira, the character is endearing, but lacks believability in his dull, one-dimensional performance.

Martha’s polyamorous dating via the online dating site is the only refreshing feature in the film. The idea of her taking charge of her dating life and having the freedom to enjoy the company of whoever and however many men she pleases was certainly satisfying to watch.

However, the potential empowerment is lost when Martha unsurprisingly realizes that serial dating is unsatisfying and in fact damaging to not only her love life but to her professional and personal life as well. She, in true Hitchcock sadist form, eventually learns her lesson after hurting the one she loves, and must prove herself a changed woman.

Director Jorge Colon gives the classic romantic comedy a much needed 21st-century upgrade by injecting modern lifestyle facets such as anonymous online dating and female serial daters.

Set in modern day Mexico City, Canesada de Besar Sapros shines a new light on the metropolis. Instead of the sex, drugs and dark underbelly of crime usually portrayed in films located in Mexico City, the audience is presented with a flourish of artwork and cafés. Along with a rock soundtrack and a special appearance by famous Mexican rock band La Quinta Estacion, the film gives a hip and contemporary twist to your typical romantic comedy.

Although predictable and drawn out at times, Canesada de Besar Sapros is a welcome shift from the slew of witless American romantic comedies. This is the perfect film for the hurt but hopeful, or just a girls’ night out.

Canesada de Besar Sapros is a cute romantic comedy that doesn’t completely croa
