Secondly, the beautiful people in tight clothes combat in interesting places, trading stamps and selling style. The logic is flexible, cars were destroyed and at the end promises to continue.
"Goodbye," a very good French film opening today, belongs to the first type.
As someone who not only read its Penguin Graham Greenes, but still mourning the loss of their Corgi Aston Martin, I can appreciate both.
How to "Salt" proves once again.
Part of the problem lies in the retro theme, which requires us to believe in the Communist conspiracy of "Manchurian Candidate," an old-school Soviet assassins (complete with boots Rosa Klebb), and the mad Boris and Natasha plan to lead to nuclear war. But these days, it seems, Russian spies just want to pay and a good school district in the suburbs. They are capitalists, too - why they want to see it all vaporized in a mushroom?
Another problem comes with the casting. Angelina Jolie as a high-kicked a CIA agent, which can be a double agent? (Or is it a triple agent?) It's easy to take, especially when she dyes her hair black and started Morticia collect body items. (In the film a bit bold estrogen power, she improvises dressing of Kotex.)
But anyone who has seen more than a few Hollywood films do not know the rules. And the fact that August Diehl, boring actor, is too simple to remain as husband Jolie and Liv Schreiber, an interesting actor, it's too hard to play just a part of best friend, like the Telegraph story turns.
The film is directed by Phillip Noyce, whose talent seems to decrease the closer he gets to Hollywood. "Dead Calm" and "Rabbit-Proof Fence", shot in his native Australia? Very good. "Holy" and "Sliver", made for the studios of Los Angeles? Two movie no one should see.
Of course, Noah probably got the nomination because he, too, "Patriot Games" and "Clear and Present Danger." (And Jolie, who, undoubtedly, the director claims he worked with him on "The Bone.") At least he's old-school enough to shoot a scene, how to fight a fight, not kaleidoscopic blurs.
