Review #1 - O Brother Where Art Thou?

I'd like to say that this movie was visually stimulating. The use of colors (saturation, desaturation), scene transistions and the lighting make this movie great and unique. The story line however, was one I had a hard time to keep interested in. Sometimes I didn't know what they were saying, and I paid more attention to the visual elements and structure than the story line. I guess I just couldn't really relate to the story. But, I will hand it to them for their choice in music. It did add to the overall feel of the movie, and I actually knew some of them because I sing with a gospel choir...ANYWAY. All in all, good movie.

Review #2 - Pecker

Bahahaha! Hilarious movie! Unlike O Brother Where Art Thou, in my opinion, this movie has such a rich story line. I was kept interested and entertained. The way it was shot was definitely plain, normal, and most likely on a lower budget than O Brother, but I think added it's own charm to the movie. The characters and the message of the movie were what made this one great. I can definitely relate to this movie; he's a photographer, I'm a photographer. But I always try and steal some street scenes and candids of my friends and family. I've actually seen this movie before and watched it the first time when I was twelve. It's where I learned what tea bagging was. Watching it again definitely makes the point of the movie more clear, easier for me to understand what it was all about and appreciate it more than I did before. And, I also get all the other jokes that I never understood when I was twelve.
