Weekend Movie Reviews

I saw 'Timeline,' 'The Notebook' & 'Dogville' this weekend.
Timeline is basically Michael Critchen's book turned into a 'B' flik! Weak on all points.
The Notebook is as good as my dear friend said it was and eventhough I don't like Gena Rowlands I did like the movie.
Dogville is a Lars Von Trier movie that is filmed on a movie set staged as a play. It had a Spoon River Anthology feel, but the trepidation of this town and its hold on the visitor, played by Nicole Kidman, becomes all too obvious and deviant. The ending is tragically interesting. I have to say I did enjoy it, but know most wouldn't watch the entire film because of ist Pop Noir type of style.
