Lost In Translation (DVD)

When it comes to love - Hollywood has a lot to learn. Money can buy you a lot of things in film making - but it can't buy that one illusive value which sets some films apart from 'the rest' - authenticity. We all know deep down that, much as we enjoy a little romantic escapism, epic love ... Read review

Lost in Translation

In today's world no self-respecting English-language enthusiast could have failed to ... more

notice the frequent and flagrant abuse of our
native tongue by pesky foreigners? (Forgetting 
for a moment  the fact that many nations speak our
language better than we do). "Lost in Translation"
features hundreds of genuine  original and utterly
ridiculous examples of the misadventures in
English discovered all over the world by the
author and his intrepid team of researchers -
everything from hotel signs to baffling
advertisements  such as the German beauty product
offering a 'Cream shower for pretentious skin' or
the Japanese bar that boasts 'Special cocktails
for ladies with nuts'  or the French warning at a
swimming pool - 'Swimming is forbidden in the
absence of the saviour.' Published in paperback
for the first time this autumn  "Lost in
Translation" demonstrates how widely the English
language has travelled  though unfortunately some
of it seems to have got a bit scrambled en route.

A well crafted, subtle love story

Advantages: Murray and Johansson tingle with onscreen chemistry and Coppola directs with credible confidence
Disadvantages: Technically the film can appear unfinished, low on action and plot if you need them.

...commit fully to either and lost in the memories of what he once had and who he once was. Suffice to say Murray pulls this role off with expert ease, mixing perfect comic timing with a genuine level of feeling and a fair degree of identification. He is wholly believable and convincing, being both amusing and moving, in an underplayed role which fits him perfectly. Comparisons to Jack Nicholson’s performance in 'About Schmidt' are not unwarranted, ...
...in this exotic setting, managing to avoid slipping down that easy slope towards melancholy.

Harris' wry, self-aware aura is perfectly complimented by the sprightly presence of a recently married philosophy graduate, also looking for some meaning and companionship after her incessantly preoccupied husband abandons her on yet another photo shoot. And so over a cocktail of insomnia and boredom this unlikely couple embark on a friendship ... more

Found In Tokyo

Advantages: Honest, Charming, Real & Fun
Disadvantages: Some slow bits, and is Scarlett Pregnant???

...a look at the movie Lost in Translation. Yes, I know that this movie takes place in Tokyo, Japan and not Beijing, China, but there are certainly some similarities. The Story & The Script: The story of the movie is simple, but realistic. Sent to do a job in a country half way around the world, Bob Harris - a washed out actor - can't sleep and ends up haunting the hotel bar, only to find another sleepless guest - Charlotte - the young wife of a photographer ...
...finding each other becomes the only thing that keeps them both sane during their visit, and for a week, they join forces to fight their mutual loneliness. But there really is more to this story than that. I don't know about you, but I've made one short-lived friendship with someone of the opposite sex which, had situations been different, perhaps our relationship would also have taken on a different facet. And yet, I also know that had both of us ...

Oh Mr Harris! Don't Touch Me Just Lip My Stocking

Advantages: Beautifully shot, brilliant performances from both Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson, great direction and script from Sofia Coppola.
Disadvantages: None for me personally, but people who don’t like these types of films might find it slow and boring, some people have also complained there’s no story but I personally don’t think that’s a big deal.

I had wanted to see “Lost in translation” for three reasons. First, one of my favourite actors was in it, Bill Murray. Second, an actress who is slowly becoming my favourite actress (eh em, next to Miss Dunst of course) was in it, Scarlett Johansson. And thirdly Sofia Coppola was directing it. See I adored Coppola’s first feature length movie “The virgin suicides” and I was hoping this movie would touch me as much as that one did. Anyway my hopes ...
...I realised it was showing in no cinema’s near me, the only way I could see it was if I’d gone to an out of town cinema. Well I wanted to see it, but not that much! Anyway last week my friend came over and mentioned in passing that it is now showing at all the cinemas in our town, that very day I dragged him and a couple of other friends to see it with me. My preconception about this movie was that it was an indie flick that would quietly pass the ...

Alone in Tokyo

Advantages: Compelling character perfomances, Tokyo is captivating and the story is very poignant.
Disadvantages: The very impatient and cynical may view as slow and possibly pretentious.

Lost in Translation tells the story of two disaffected souls, whose informal chance meeting in a lonely Tokyo hotel would somehow bringing a new sense of purpose and reinvigoration into their jaded lives. Unable to cope with the solitude and indifference of the big city, their restlessness manifests itself as insomnia and during nights of hanging out together they find a little special something in one another. Bill Murray is affective in his great ...
...whose celebrity status has been obscured over the years and must now resort to taking up very embarrassing yet very lucrative publicity contracts in Japan. Scarlett Johansson is equally good as the nubile, highly-intelligent overachiever Charlotte, who follows her immature husband (Giovanni Ribisi) who is on a pop magazine photo job. A very simple and honest character study dealing with somewhat complicated relationship issues; the movie pauses ...

Everybody Wants To Be Found

Advantages: Wonderful Atmosphere, Stunnig Acting Performances, Emotionally Resonant, Stunning Script
Disadvantages: A Little Slow

...to see Anna Faris in Lost In Translation, she plays Kelly a completely shallow and attention seeking movie star who has just starred in an action adventure with Keanu Reeves and is just in Tokyo to advertise the film. Her role doesn’t require much acting, but she does add yet more comic zest to the film. Lance Acord expertly captures the energy and essence of Tokyo, through his cinematography that is almost like a painting, the film is wonderfully ...
...aren’t hundreds of CGI effects, Lost In Translation has to rely on fantastic symbolism and use of emotional triggers to keep it eye catching and very engaging, it is full of lasting images. The colour palette used in this is very symbolic as it reflects the emotions, ideals and thoughts of the central characters. Another thing I loved about Lost In Translation was that it was a love story, but not in the traditional sense, these two extraordinary ...

Translates well

Advantages: Great acting, good cinematography
Disadvantages: Nothing really happens (but in a good way)

Bob Harris is an ageing film star paid two million dollars to shoot an advert for a Japanese whisky “when I could be doing a play somewhere.” Charlotte is the wife of a hot young photographer, who accompanies him to Tokyo while she decides what to do with her life. They meet in a hotel bar and spark up a friendship based on their inability to understand the world they find themselves in. And that’s pretty much it. There aren’t any big explosions, ...
...you’re after, go and watch a Matrix film. But if you like your films small and personal, then this could be the one for you. Sofia Coppola comes from Hollywood royalty. Her father is Francis Ford Coppola, director of such film school fodder as “The Godfather” and “Apocalypse Now”. Her cousin is Nicolas Cage and her brother Roman is also in the business. It seems a little surprising then that she chooses to make such small films about nothing in ...

High Flying Martial Arts Flick

Advantages: Breath taking martial arts and agility
Disadvantages: Poor story

showcasing what Jaa can do. The fight scene's are breath taking and only rivalled by Jaa's other major film 'Warrior King' ('Tom-Yum-Goong' in some countries). Audio The sound isn't fantastic, with the sound effects in some of the fight scenes slightly out of sync. Depending on which version your store has you may end up with rock music in a lot of the scenes, or like me with hip-hop. The English dub sounds more like a mixture of local accents from around England than your usual American voice dub, at times sounding more like a British soap opera than martial arts film. The Subtitles I imagine because of the many different releases and different audio that has been used for this film a lot of dialogue may have been lost in translation (I've seen 3 different dvd version's with slightly different subtitles).

Review of Ong Bak (DVD)

The most impressive martial artist in film.

Advantages: Amazing fight scenes and stunts, no wires so everything you see is for real.
Disadvantages: The plots aren't amazing but still watchable, not for people who don't like foreign films.

Review of Tony Jaa Box Set - Ong-Bak/Warrior King (Collectors Editions) (Box Set) (DVD)

Fantastique!

Advantages: Greta humour
Disadvantages: The French audio

Whilst on an International Air Cadet Exchange to Belgium last July one of my host families decided to show me a classic French film. Now I speak a little French but not enough to watch an entire film and so was a little concerned. That was however until they explained that it had English subtitles and was an easy to follow comedy called Les Visiteurs. I am now so pleased that they chose this film because I have since bought it on DVD and watched it again, having enjoyed it so much. The film as I have already mentioned has French audio but the English subtitles on my DVD version are fixed and according to my host family are very accurate although some of the humour is lost in translation a little bit. THE PLOT Count Godefroy de Montmirail has just saved the King's life and is to be rewarded with his beloved Fenegronde's hand ...
