The Delivery (1999)

Boring explosions

[2/10 · 6 October 1999]

This is a road movie. At least the movie is in yellow anf I think that suggests a road movie (?). I can't say much positive about The Delivery. It's bad acting, certainly their English. Camera looks like it is done by a kid, there's a bomb with counter, and suddenly a Beetle is falling from the sky. Since it was so cliche we actually laught the whole time -- and that was the most fun of the movie. This movie should be released in America, but I'm not sure you should go because that might suggest that is the quality we produce. The explosions look boring. Basically everything is over the top. Everything is just too much: the yellow quality, the sound, the babe, etc. Find all the cliche part in other movies, put them together and you have The Delivery.

Dief! (1998)

I am not a crook

[1/10 · 6 October 1999]

The word Dief means Thief in Flemmisch. So the movie is about a thief. You'll see the guy in jail, in a jail-mobile, and in jail again. In jail with his friends, in jail alone, and in jail outside. The movie was shot here in Antwerp. There is a cool scene in a club. That's the best part of the movie. The movie was so loud and annoying. Half of the room was empty at the end of the movie. If you like to see people in jail and not much else, check out this movie.

Shades (1999)

Antwerp is not Hollywood

[1/10 · 6 October 1999]

This is a very sad movie. Really. Nothing happens in this movie. The Script is bad!!! I guess they've just copy-paste the first 15 pages to 90 pages. The Producers must have thought let's create a Hollywood movie here in Belgium. They didn't succeed. Now in the third week it is only running in Antwerp and Brussels at 22h45 or something. In the past we have had really good movies in Belgium, like Daens. Shades is a waste of your time. Maybe you could sneak in the theater after you've seen a real movie. If you've seen 10 minutes of Shades, you've seen it all. It was advertised to death on local radio and TV. I hope it will disappear in the Shades soon.

Saving Private Ryan (1998)

Wow! and Wow! again

[10/10 · 6 October 1999]

This movie is so great! Just everything is great: image, sound, acting, directing, light, special effects, colors, storytelling, everything. I've seen SPR twice. I hope this movie will be a lesson for other directors!!!

Jumanji (1995)

Parents go and see

[8/10 · 6 October 1999]

Not many of my friends like this movie, but I think you should go and see it. it is a sort of a fantasy world. It teaches parents to pay attention to their childeren and that is a good thing. I liked the special effects and the special sounds and the humor. A must see for the family...
