Movies: February 2005 Archives

The Italian Job

| |

I just finished watching The Italian Job(2003).

This is an excellent example of the beloved gentleman thief movie genre. While the movie smacked of annoying product placement it was fun to watch. It held my interest and I loved watching the heists occur with split second accuracy, but in the end the movie didn't grab me in any special way. I'll give it two and a half stars out of four.

Due to my suggestibility, I now want to buy a Mini in the worst way, of course.

Bourne Identity

| |

I had never seen Bourne Identity until this last weekend. I had seen Bourne Supremacy last summer and enjoyed it, but everyone said the first movie was better.

Since I recently signed up for a trial membership at netflix, I thought that I should see Bourne Identity and make up my own mind.

I thought the first movie was not quite as good. I liked the love interest, and thoroughly enjoyed the European scenery, but in the end the story wasn't all that satisfying to me. Perhaps it was because the unfolding plot of the first movie was essentially blown for me during the second movie. I did really enjoy the car chases and the cars driving the wrong way down the road sequence.

It was OK, but nothing that will change my life.
