Slow Songs Not About Love

[RECE] Inception

Of Inception said he was everything and more. Nolan has been hailed as successor to Kubrick and Hitchcock, and the like.
Nothing could be more exaggerated.
Nolan is without doubt one of the most interesting scene, but put it in parallel with a Fincher to Kubrick.
Personally I think the high points of his career are Memento and The Prestige, but it must be said that can not get the wrong one, let alone this one.

They all praised, mostly with good reason, I'll just say what I did not like.

The problem with this film is that it is overly complex, but is not complete. Manca a context of what is happening (the technology used in the film is more widespread than it seems if you are careful), but the biggest flaws in the plot are petty. The screenplay is great, running a kind of layered narrative of this kind without getting lost is hard, and succeed, but the starting point of the whole I found a little 'seedy. Nolan tends a bit 'to welcome the talent, and it's quite hard to be involved in the story. And, importantly, is an overlong film. Not because it wastes time, but instead why do not waste a second. Keep the focus on 100% for two and a half hours is tough. Even Kubrick has ever asked such a thing to the viewer. Also because in the end a couple of things do not add too much. And, despite what they say about, is not so 'complex. E'stratificato, but linear, then it does not take too much to follow the path of the protagonists in the various levels of dream. I had read that the structure was very complex but then unraveled in the final. Well, I found the hotel quite clear enough and the final phone call (though no doubt deliberately).

I would not give the wrong impression, I liked the movie and I would like to review more, but I find that the opinions I read are a bit 'exaggerated. Nolan has done even better. And I'm sure that will surprise us again.

final note on Di Caprio. After Titanic could have pleased the fact that it's a cool lady (it is undeniable), and make movies of shit. Instead, he is at play, he pulled out two balls as big as an actor, and after ten years continues to confirm one of the best in the environment. All my estimation.

Baby Engaged Early In Second Pregnancy



found around the net ...

A daughter complained to her father about her life and how things were so difficult. He did not know how to continue and believed to give up. She was tired of fighting. It seemed that when solving a problem, it appeared another.
His father, a chef, took her to the workplace. It filled three pots with water and placed on the fire. When the three pots of water was boiling, placed it in a few carrots, eggs and placed in another of the last placed ground coffee beans. ;
He let the water boil without saying a word.
The daughter impatiently waited, wondering what he was doing his father ...
Twenty minutes later the father put out the fire. He pulled the carrots out and placed them in a dish. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in another pot. Finally, filtered the coffee and put it in a bowl. Looking at her daughter told her: "My dear child, carrot, egg or coffee?" The
he brought and asked her to touch the carrots, she did and noticed that they were soft, and after the churches to take an egg and break it, while pulling off the shell, observed the hard boiled egg. When asked to try to drink the coffee smiled as she tasted its rich aroma.
humbly asked his daughter: "What does this mean, father?"
He explained that the three had faced the same adversity, "boiling water" but each reacted differently.
The carrot went in strong, hard, proud, but after being in water, boiling it was weak, easy to undo.
The egg had to 'fragile water, its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after being in the boiling water, its inside became hardened.
Instead, the coffee beans, were unique: after being in the boiling water, they had changed the water.
"What are you a daughter?" he said.
"When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond?
Are you a carrot that seems strong but the problems and pain when you touch, you become weak and lose your strength?
you an egg that starts with a malleable heart and good spirit, but after a death, separation, dismissal, an obstacle on the way, it becomes hard and rigid?
outside, you see the same, but inside six bitter and harsh, with a spirit and a hardened heart? Or are you like a grain coffee? The coffee changes the water, the element that causes him pain.
When the water reaches the boiling point of coffee is at its best flavor.
you are like the coffee bean, when the things get worse, you react in a positive form, without allowing yourself to win, and you do so that things that happen to you improve, that there is always a light in front of adversity, light your way and the people around you " .
For this reason, never fail to spread with your strength and your positive "the sweet aroma of coffee".

Pilot 2010/2001 - Part 2

to you five more ... minirecensioni

Better With You
sitcom for ABC, story of two sisters, their boyfriends and their parents. A game on confornti generational, a bit 'banalotto, but fun. But I know that step.

Mike And Molly
Produced by Chuck Lorre, one of the producers of The Big Bang Theory, another sitcom. Starring a policeman and a teacher, both significantly overweight, you know and start to like. Ok, this sentence does not mean anything, but the series seems really fun, and the characters are very sweet. Promoted.

Shit My Dad Says
Another sitcom, starring William Shatner (who I must say it ???). Fun but not too honest, this step also.

The Defenders
Yet another legal, a genre that really like the Americans, "starring Jim Belushi. Cute, funny, but I'm not a big fan of the genre, and Belushi is not enough. People who like the council instead.

Boardwalk Empire
The most anticipated series of the year, without doubt. Without going too (if you're talking more than enough) is masterfully directed, scripted and interpreted (Steve Buscemi character, I said it all). Mad Men reminds me a lot, despite the huge difference of constesto. But, as Mad Men, I find it a bit 'chilly, despite being technically impeccable. I'll follow you for sure.

The Whole Truth
another lawyer, but with one important difference. In the series in fact for any event you see both points of view that the prosecution of the defense in a balanced way, and I think it's pretty innovative for the genre. Well done, but as mentioned before is not my thing. How nice

- 300 grams of rice
- 200 grams of mushrooms (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cube mushroom
- parsley
- grated Parmesan cheese
- hot pepper (optional)
- oil

Preparation:
Let thaw mushrooms for about twenty minutes (if frozen) and then cut into small pieces. Finely chop mettelelo parsley and fry gently in a pan with a little 'oil and, if you are happy with, chilli pepper. Before frying the beaten too much, add the mushrooms into small pieces. Cover with a lid and cook for 5-7 minutes.
In the meantime, put water in a saucepan to heat and add the mushrooms die. Then add the rice in a pan with the mushrooms and toast for a few minutes. When the rice starts to stick, add a ladleful of vegetable stock. Stir and let it dry while keeping the broth to a boil.
Continue cooking the rice, stirring with a wooden spoon and adding a ladleful of broth to the risotto slowly dries. Bring the rice cooking, adding broth as they withdrew.
When cooked to completely withdraw the stock and add a bit of butter to make it more creamy. Serve the risotto and then let it melt

Since I remember, September 25th has always eaten the risotto with mushrooms. For lunch or dinner according to family commitments, but we have never missed one. My father loved the mushrooms and especially the risotto with mushrooms. And so September 25, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 we did it.
Today, when I got home, I knew that opening the door I heard the classic scent of fungi to invade the heart. I told my mother: "I did not know whether to do so or not, but then I said is September 25."

's our way of remembering my father, all on September 25.
Congratulations Daddy!

Pilot 2010/2001 - Part 1

started again the series!
Except for the happiness of the return of my classics, this year we are flooded with new series and I wanted to share my views on what I've seen so far. I'll try to be as short as possible XD

Rubicon
This series is not actually considered part of the new season, as it is playing in July, but I wanted to put it anyway. AMC's new series, after the sopravvalutatissimo Mad Men (IMHO, seem to be the only ground on which this series to tell a little) and the wonderful "Breaking Bad, is set in the U.S. intelligence world. One of milgiori team starts to notice strange things inside the puzzle of the main newspapers and begins to investigate a conspiracy. Series from the very slow pace, exacerbated by the lack of soundtrack (typical AMC), but I find them quite interesting (even if it has an unclear development = it is not clear where he wants to end up too)

Nikita
New born Home CW, it was a pleasant surprise. Anyone who follows American television series will know what is the CW, which is the focus of the worst rubbish American television (and in any case higher than the best Italian products, Boris separately). Remake of the TV series is the remake of Luc Besson (yes, it is so) is a pleasant, well done and well played, with Quelch defect achieved, but negligible. A nice surprise.

The Event
Yet another series conceived and promoted as the heir of Lost (after Heroes and bankruptcy Flashforward), is a series that has two options ahead: either become something very cool or a colossal bullshit. The impression he gave me the pilot is quite good, but it is clear that much remains to be seen to be able to judge.

Raising Hope
This series is chilling. From the creators of My Name Is Earl, I've never seen, is one of the FOX comedy series about a boy who must grow his daughter, born of a casual relationship with a murderer, sentenced to the electric chair shortly before. Yes, it's a comedy. And with a plot like this it is disturbing. Then add the execution view so comic and father and grandmother who vomit on the girl when they open the dirty diaper. No, not for me ...

Running Wilde
From the makers of Arrested Development. Yeah I liked more, though I know that will retrieve it later (I moved back too). The two protagonists are a superriccone and an environmentalist, who had a brief romance with children and have never exceeded, only to find themselves as adults. The actors are very good, and it looks really fun.

Hawaii Five-0
Crime, nothing fundamental. Hustler enough, with a nostalgic cast to (makes me odd that a cast composed of an actor's Lost, one of Battlestar Galactica, one of 24 pilot and James "Spike" Marsters has been studied at random). Pleasant and well made. Another remake that too.

Undercovers
For now, the biggest disappointment. From JJ Abrams (do not think I should explain who is) a history of espionage is commonplace, full of cliches and things you've seen before. He does not deserve even other words. Rejected without appeal, by the author of Alias, Lost and Fringe I expect a lot more.

Find A Dress For A Zulu Ball

I invite you to my city




In reality there is little in this post of mine ...

These days I'm listening very group patchanka / ska punk Italian, Venetian for accuracy. They are called Talco and are definitely aligned to the left, where I like. One of
songs that I hear most is the caravan and talk about this society degraded corotta, violent and capitalist. Good powder (do not know why I'm thinking like one) invites us all in his hometown
we go?
Talco - The Caravan
"Venghino" in the harsh reality



Where a helpless lament struck me


Alarm puppet, here you


On the brink of worldliness
Here in the mud of a false truth
What still selling gold when sewer
Sleep time was left at the cowardice
Del indifference occidental

I'm leaving to pursue a utopia
What they see looks tired
I fear that your democracy
With fire not bring freedom
Maybe it's late but I'm running away
To mend the gaps in your hypocrisy
In my city, the caravan goes
bring solidarity
you, dreamers do to my case
To make a saint does not take a god
Solidarity, I'm running around
To remedy the gaps in Your false

Here there is still a city
innocence slips
I chased a city
Among the ruins of a submerged
There's still a city
My city
say my truth
Liar, irreverent and extremist
all but I can not tolerate
If consciousness is blind is because she has stopped screaming
Peoples and smashed the city via
by the ghost of war and the economy
In my town I bring humanity
A mutilated days of your civilization

As always you can hear the song through YouTube

Different Bussiness Agreement

[Series] Friday Night Lights Season 1-4

I was pointed out that I write this blog post too long. This will be no exception XD
Today
uncle Isa speaks of one of those series that should be put in a hypothetical ranking of the most beautiful things that exist on TV, and of course almost nobody in Italy knows (FNL do not cry, make you little thing companies like Firefly, Doctor Who and Breaking Bad, Italians prefer those stuff here ).

are recovering from a marathon of season 2, 3 and 4 that I finally managed to see pending the fifth and final which should begin in October. And I can not wait.

What I'm talking about? FNL is a teen sports drama, with particular emphasis on the word drama. The term "teen drama" would shake a lot, think about doing things like Gossip Girl, 90210 and the like. Nothing of this. There is talk of kids and their stories, but it's just the point of contact.
Set in the fictional town of Dillon, Texas, the series tells the story of a football team, the Dillon Panthers, and in particular of his coach and his family. Coach know for sure where the interpreter this series).
The starting point of the series is actually a film of the same name, made just before the series by the same author, Peter Berg, who then reworked the story for television with the author of Roswell (another gem IMHO) Jason Katims shared have the shooting style, which I'll discuss later, a pair of actors (also carried in different parts), and of course the theme. The film is a good product, but because of the timing can not get the effect of realism and involvement that leads to the series rather excellent levels.

Via the tooth the pain away, then come back seriously. This series has one of the weirdest cast female hormonal level of television. Namely (in descending order of personal preference), Minka Kelly, Adrianne Palicki , Connie Britton and Aimee Teegarden . There is also a gift group photo. We do not lose any more time. I do not think there's much to comment on.
Torno seriously. The cast won the first season of the Emmy for best casting for a drama series, more deserved. The actors are exceptional, capable of giving life to characters with a realism quite unique. The characters are real, real, non-stereotypical way (maybe this thing is a bit 'less than last season which I'll discuss later). Are true just because placed in a true, one of the most retrograde Texas, was being considered for a character in the series as it is without doubt Gotham City for Batman. This city lives and revolves entirely around the football, while ignoring more serious problems that fill it, then making myths and ignoring the players who alternate on the team.
Players are treated as myths of film while I'm on the team, only to be forgotten and immediately go back to being nobody, if they are not able to pursue their career.
But, in short, things mentioned in this series there are many, and it would be boring if I made a list of everything. Look, do yourself a favor. In Italian (I showed it to my sister as well, a bit 'is lost, but not so severe).
The directing style of the series is immediately evident, and it's brilliant. Each scene is shot with three bedrooms in the hand with a strong effect documentary (the shots are always on the move). Each scene is filmed from three angles simultaneously, and the actors are instructed in how to adapt the lines in a more natural and realistic as possible, to take almost always the first good shot. (A small personal note: I do not understand why this thing is not the norm for a movie he wants to do realism ... when I had to make such choices seemed to me the sensible thing, simple and natural) without
dwell too, I can tell you that there is so much fond of the characters, with their strengths and their flaws that make them with real time.
last thing. The series has been rather troubled vicissitudes of transmission, and was saved from closure thanks to the affection of fans who have made that you enter into a contract of co-production and co-distribution between DirecTV and NBC. For this reason, and needs narrative (the characters arrive at the age Dillon from college or leave for other reasons) the fourth season starts almost from scratch, so you can compare the last season of Scrubs, which I have already spoken. But, unlike the latter, the scenery changes a lot, you travel in the most infamous of Dillon, where football reigns and more wealth, but a real hard life. Many of the characters of the first round remains, in other roles, and others are lost. The new cast is not bad, but in my opinion falls a bit 'in some of the stereotypes of American slum. This does not mean that this fourth season is definitely exciting.

The council unreservedly to anyone ...

Tattoos To Remember Miscarriage

[RECE] The Expendables

Nono have never been a fan of action movies, not because I like it though (in fact) but because it simply has never been the kind I grew up with. But I have the basics, the Willis' John McClane, Rocky and Rambo (the first of a lot more second, so I never stravisto) are part of my cinematic universe. The news of this project Stallone sent the ball hormones to all fans of the genre. Superfilm a screen that would combine some of the biggest icons of action cinema of the eighties. Almost all practically (Damme and Seagal are missing the call, who could not attend, apparently for commitments that are incompatible). So how was it? I make a point by point.

The Cast
begin with the most obvious thing. This film has been built on its cast. With another group of actors this film would not have even existed. And that he knew of. The problem is that there are too many, and perhaps even the right ones. The scene of Willis and Schwarzenegger is hilarious, but it is just thrown in to make up the numbers on the actors (something like 2:00 to 3:00 minute scene in total, Schwarzenegger even less). Two of the leading actors I had never seen me or just do not remember them, and frankly, without them he would not change much (I later discovered that two former athletes who had recently made a few films). The problem is to manage eight to nine players in 100 minutes (too much, too little). The result is cobbled together in some scenes it looks like to see a parade of actors, one after the other instead of a cast. The characters are, for lack of screenplay that time, absolutely flat, with the exception of Statham's character (which, no doubt, is the heir of this generation of players ever) and that of Lundgren (I always hated Rocky IV it is clear). Then, note that the bottom just got to do, the girl from Cordy Statham is my ...

Director and Screenplay
I have always appreciated the author Stallone, indeed, the last Rocky is one of the best films I've seen lately. Stiel his writing, a bit 'rough and bully, but with a certain touch, is evident. The subject is not his, but the components are clearly evident in the film that he made her and rewritten. The problem lies in the idea of \u200b\u200bthe fund. This, on paper, it could be for action movies what "The Lord of the Rings" was the fantasy. It is not. It is not because it continues throughout the film to straddle between being a giant Tamarra (in the most positive sense of the word) and be a reflection on the same film that is by paying, and the state actors who are playing (the comparison between the mercenaries and the action closed these actors in their roles is subtle but clear enough in my opinion). Between the two components is the first to make the boss, but the action scenes results, especially in the final, bombastic and confusing. Certainly the low budget film (which is more than obvious) does its part, but things like the blood in CGI (really) give their discomfort. The plot


no surprise here, either positive nor negative. Basically, a dictator takes hostage an island in the Gulf of Mexico with the help of a corrupt CIA agent and a traitor, and his team of mercenaries is sent to kill them both. What they do (toh, spoiler). But, for once, the beautiful (not too much to be honest) does not end with the hero. Do not think I've ruined the film by saying these things. Ultimately, it is in every way a film for years 80, do not expect plot twist, introspection and reflection, but so much blood, violence, racism free, explosions, weapons, bigger and bigger. And these things are there in droves. There are super exciting scenes in their vulgarity (the attack on the pier and the first scene at all). The

(i) sequel
For once, I'm hoping for a continuation of the series. I hope he has more money available, and we can do it longer by correcting errors that are in it. It might come out something cool.



IN CONCLUSION To sum up, I found this movie bad, indeed. It just does not respect this is neither surprising nor promising on paper. But it's Hooch and tamarro like any good action movie should be, with that author's light touch that does not suck, and some dialogs in effect from the clipboard. I hope for a better sequel, but all in all it's worth it, even for just one scene of Willis and Schwarzenegger.

better dialogue: the dictator is inciting his army to find and kill the team, speaking in English. They are hidden nearby, and Stallone is "What's he saying?". The answer "You are dead. But with a lot of s". Brilliant.
