robert downey jr in "two
girls and a guy"
- solid potrayal of a two timing struggling
actor who lies effortlessly to avoid the truth while being the perfect
mama's boy.
jim carrey in "the
truman show"
- no talking anus, no contorted faces, no
wacky hairdo, in short: WOW!
tom hanks in "saving
private ryan"
- his tortued potrayal of the self doubting
captain makes us laugh when he laughs and makes us cry when he cries.
john travolta in "primary
colours"
- the voice, the look, the body language,
travolta was so good in his clinton potrayal that i bet even ms lewinsky
would "suck up" to the wrong guy.
aaron eckhart in
"in
the company of men"
- word has it that after making the movie,
women has scolded him on the streets for being such a jerk in the movie.
talk about convincing acting!
katie bates in "primary
colours"
- when it comes to potraying a mean bitch,
this gal can do no wrong.
heather graham in "boogie
nights"
- her role as Rollergirl was so aloof and
detached from any feelings and thoughts that you may think
she's really on drugs while filming.
stacy edwards in "in
the company of men"
- wonderful potrayal of the deaf secretary
whose love life turns upside down due to two jerks.
laura linney in "the
truman show"
- you can never look at another advertisement
the same way again, after her hilarious product placement scenes in truman
show.
emma thompson in "primary
colours"
- her hillary impression is done to perfection!
if you think about it, the way her british accent disappeared and replaced
by an american accent, it's simply marvellous!
heather graham in "Boogie Nights"
catherine zeta jones in "The Mask of Zorro"
Denise Richards in "Wild Things"
china chow in "The Big Hit"
Yang Gong Ru in "The StormRiders"
Blade
: bloodbath scene (aka the disco scene
- with New Order's "confusion" blasting
away in the background timed with the surprising blood sprinklers right
to the end of the fight scene, don't tell me you weren't impressed!
Saving Private Ryan
:
D-Day scene (aka war at the French Beach)
- with guts spilling here, a guy looking
for his limb there, and hundreds of soldiers dying everywhere, you'll bound
to miss something the very moment you blink
Two Girls and A Guy
:
the sex scene
- I've to say this is the steamiest sex
scene I've seen in a Hollywood flick in a very long time!
There's something about Mary
: the hair gel scene (censored in local releases)
- It may have only lasted mere seconds...
but the scene where Cameron Diaz mistakens Ben Stiller's uh... discharge
for hair gel is simply G-R-O-S-S!
Wild Things
: menage a troi scene (not seen on local cinemas)
- Now when is the last time you saw 3 Hollywood
stars doing the you-know-what on the big screen huh? Besides...Denise
Richards is in it!
Breakthrough Performer of the year
Heather Graham
- blonde, pretty and already going places...definitely
one of the best finds of the year.
Jeremy Davies (I think)
- a perfect unknown who stole the show with
his outstanding part as the cowardly clerk who may have cost his platoon
their battle. Now tell me you didn't hate the guy when he didn't do anything
to stop the Germans!
Jim Carrey
- no one expected Jim to do anything other
than slapstick comedy, well now Jimbo has shut up all his critics by proving
he too can act without contorting his face.
Mark Wahlberg
- his excellent potrayal of Dirk Diggler
in Boogie Nights certainly made critics stand up and take notice.
Excellent career move by dumping his Marky Mark days to concentrate on
acting.
Denise Richards
- dumping her barbie doll look for a sexy
siren image in Wild things has certainly done nothing but boost up her
career as well as driving the guys hormones up the wall!
Godzilla in "Godzilla"
- ewwwww..gimme the guy in the rubber suit
any day!
Cheng E-kin in "The
StormRiders"
- his potrayal of "Wind" not only made the
comic book character look like a loser...he certainly damaged his reputation
as a singer by croaking the title track for the song in mandrian (which
sounded just like cantonese!)
Eddie Murphy in "Dr
Dolittle"
- "Nutty Professior" he is not! To add insult
to injury, Chris Rock actually stole the limelight even if he only appears
as the voice of the guniea pig.
Mike Meyers in "Halloween:H20"
- What??? He don't talk, can only walk,
and fashion sense? bleah! No wonder it gave Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis)
nightmares! Guess the boogey men of the 80's need more makeover for
the 90's.
Matt LeBlanc in "Lost
in Space"
- Think: Joey in a space suit.
"Amercian components..Russian components..they are all made in TAIWAN!!!" - Armageddon
"He better be worth it. He better go home
and cure a disease, or invent a longer-lasting lightbulb."
- Saving
Pvt Ryan
"What's the difference between a golf ball
and a G-spot?"
"I'd rather spend 20 minutes looking for
the golf ball." - In
the company of men
"Draaa-goooon. I don't do the tongue thing." - Mulan
"I think everything must go back to the fact that I had a very anxious childhood. You know, my--my mother never had time for me. You know, when you're--when you're the middle child in a family of five million, you don't get any attention."- Antz
The Truman Show
- Ingenius idea of combining thousands of
pictures to form Truman's face. Explains the concept of the movie without
even saying a word.
Species II (Nominated
Picture not found)
- Witness Natasha Henstridge transform into
an alien before your very eyes! How clever. Unfortunately the only
good thing about the movie is this very poster.
Saving Private Ryan
- I dunno why but I simply loved the movie
poster. Simple and beautiful.
Happy Together
- Poster may not mean much to those who
didn't see the movie. But if you did, it kind of explains the characters
feelings of the movie.
The
X-Files: Fight the Future
- The set of 3 teasers with the words done
what they were set out to do... tease the viewers into wanting more !
Halloween: H20
- hailed as the best Halloween sequels ever.
Now I don't even wanna see any of the series. *shudder*
Species II
- this time, the movie doesn't even have
much of a naked Natasha Henstridge to save the show!
Godzilla
- the secrecy, the mysterious new look,
the teasing banners everywhere. the disappointment. the pain. the
anguish.
Young & Dangerous '98
- a goddamn boxing match?????? what's next?
scrabble?? *gag*
John Carpenter's Vampires
- puh-lezze... I'd rather watch "From Dusk
till Dawn" anyday, at least there's Salma Hayek & her snake.
Boogie Nights
- Porn and the seventies. What more
do you want?
The Truman Show
- Superb movie with the most original story
of recent times.
Saving Private Ryan
- The greatest war movie of all time????
You bet!
Primary Colours
- Finally a movie that closely follows the
novel and packed with superb acting. Incredible combo.
In the company of men
-Direct in-your-face honesty. Low
in budget, high in quality.
