12 and Holding (2005)

This movie stunned me. There is so much raw emotional power in the synopsis alone. The kid actors do quite a good job providing an honest portrayal of modern 12 year olds, and Conor Donovan's performance in particular is pretty gut wrenching. I really enjoyed the experience of watching it all, especially Conor's storyline. However, this movie lost a lot of it's potential in its occasionally outrageous plot development. Not one of the three storylines is completely believable, and the one with the chubby kid is borderline absurd. This is a haunting movie, no doubt, and Conor Donovan is very watchable. However, I have to say it could have been much better.

My Movie Rating:

7 / 10

Låt den rätte komma in (2008)

This film is beautiful in so many ways. First there's Kare. We get a pretty revealing shot of him in the first scene :), he is cute and he holds down his acting responsibilities like a champ. Then, there's the actual movie. Nobody thinks it's good solely due to its Swedishness, sorry. The cinematography is stunning, especially in those quiet shots we get of the beautiful/snowy Nordic setting. The story is smoothly told - although the dialog is relatively minimal, a lot is said. The ending is unpredictable and profound. From my perspective, the acting is rock solid, though I don't speak the language so I can't really assess it thoroughly. The score is great and reflects the mood of the scenes well. The only negative here is the clumsy, unnecessary side plot with the blonde lady getting "infected." In all, though, there are few better movies out there. Check the reviews if you don't believe me. It's in my top 3, easily. Watch it!
