Just FYI, I hope all you movie fans know about rotten tomatoes. It compiles dozens of reviews -- very nicely done.
Depp is great, and is so again in Once Upon. Thought it was a good movie, though for some reason I still like El Mariachi better than the two sequels.
There is nothing wrong with him having a bigger role, but Antonio was the headline for this movie. Depp is a GREAT GREAT actor, give him props on whatever film he does, and does a FANTASTIC job in this movie, but still wasnt that impressed.
Rodriguez is trying to hard to make this into not your run of the mill Action Movie. Depp keeps the movie afloat, but the movie is just so out of whack and so Sam Mendes-ish (american beauty, road to perdition directors) He makes the scenes really long and poetic, but it doesn't work so well for Rodriguez as it does Mendes. The action sequences are mediocre, but Salma Hayek and Eva Mendes look pretty dayam good.
Matchstick Men is very well done. Well, obviously looking at the director. The greatest living director, Ridley Scott. Cage delivers bigtime, and so does Rockwell. The movie is freakin fantastic. Go do yourself a favor and go see it.
Matchstick men was great, but man.. what an ending. I don't know whether to be happy or sad... so uncomfortable.
