Sacra Corona (2001)
The only was is up!
Once there was the great Hungarian film industry....once... We reached the bottom for some time now. So this piece of junk truly deserves nothing, your attention at least. Perhaps we should try to respect the freedom of art and grant those who are talented and professionally acclaimed, like Istvan Szabo (Mephisto, Sunshine). This film is historically inaccurate and profesionally clumsy. 1 out of 10!
Astérix & Obélix contre César (1999)
The shame of the film-industry
Yes it is... The shame of the film industry. I loved Asterix and Obelix when I was a kid. They were well designed characters and really had a sense of humor. .... But what this movie is about?... Completely nothing. Spending a great deal of money making something really lame. No story, no character evolution, no humor. The special effects are really bad. The flying Roman soldiers are blobby and the chroma keying and computer animations are very obvious. It is just annoying to see such great actors in a film like this (Gerard Depardieu, Roberto Benigni, Gottfried John). I don't want to see the sequel (Asterix: Mission Cleopatra). Big thumbs down for the French.
Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999)
Not the best story I've seen but stunned about the special effects.
This was a long awaited film for me. I grew up on Star Wars, so it means a lot to me. I've expected a little more inventive story and a complete story-telling. Somehow I feel the characters weren't truly explained and presented. The whole film was a little bit in a rush, but it can be forgiven for the tied hands of Mr. Lucas. The special effects are really amazing (from now on there are no limits). The final clash between the Jedi and the Sith lord with the music and design made me to give a full score for this movie. (But if The Empire Strikes scores 10 The Phantom Menace only makes 7.) I expect Episode III to become the best from this trilogy. "I hope my feelings will serve me well!" "May the force be with us!"
Titanic (1997)
Slimy story, bad acting, great FX and directing.
Titanic. The story was really bad everyone knew from the beginning that how it's gonna end. DiCaprio was extremely harsh, presenting himself, I guess. I would give the A.M.P.A.S. awards to the L.A. Confidental. What was good then? Directing was quite okay, and the visual FX were superb.
