La Moustache/ TiMER

La Moustache, 2005, Thriller
Plot: A Parisian man decides to shave the mustache he’s had all of his adult-life on a whim, but no one (not even his wife) notices. Thus begins the spiral of his sanity in this 2005 French Film.

All of this drama over one mustache?

Review: Not too much to say other than the director did an excellent job of letting you become exactly what the main character was becoming: confused and left dangling on a hook. I watched this movie in hopes that it would wrap up nicely, but alas it did not.

The acting, however, was superb and everyone seemed to fit into their roles quite naturally. This movie did make me wonder what would happen to me if I fell into a similar situation (Everyone hates to do something for attention and then be completely ignored). If you’re a fan of French film, you’ll enjoy its twists and turns and the surreal feel of the film. I’d watch it again to see what I missed.

2.4/5


He looks better with the mustache. . . and without that psycho look.

TiMER, 2009, Romantic Comedy, viewed: 1/21/2011
Plot: In the not-so-distant-future people are getting “timers” put on their wrists. These count down the day until said person will come face to face with their one true love.

Great movie! Watch it!
Review: This movie was very refreshing. It was an entirely new look at the romantic comedy drama and was performed extremely well by all. Not only did it entertain the viewer, it also left me wanting to discuss the meaning and the true theme of the movie as well as draw parallels with it and reality though the concept seems to be a far deviant of what we would consider normal.
There’s not too much to say other than that this may be one of the best movies I’ve seen in a while (excluding big budget movies) I highly recommend it to anyone.
4.6/5
