Eversmile New Jersey (1989)
One of the strangest films I have ever seen..
I am in a very peculiar mood right now having just seen this movie. It is, to me at least, so bizarre my head is spinning. Not bizarre in an obvious, flashy way, but because the film takes itself so seriously in creating a protagonist the viewer relates to and empathize with, yet the character is utterly ridiculous. It leaves one to think, perhaps he's not ridiculous at all, but maybe this is what we are all like. As I have just minutes ago seen the film it's probable my opinion will change, but at this moment, what I got from this film was a very subtle but nonetheless effective message that life, films, people, teeth, war, and whatever else are completely meaningless. In one scene the dentist is explaining how silly the fighting in Northern Ireland is, if they could only realize their teeth are decaying. This film to me says, 'meaningless', and I appreciated it. I would be very curious to learn about the development of this film and what everyone involved was thinking. All in all, a film certainly worth seeing, and I must add that Daniel Day-Lewis was the reason I rented the film and I wasn't disappointed. The best actor of our generation. Unbelievable. Can't wait for Gangs of New York.
Virtual Nightmare (2000)
great idea, strong acting, good follow through, too bad the special effects had to be t.v. budget
The movie was fun to watch and get carried away in a science-fictional story. The lead actor was convincing and enjoyable to watch. Some of the scenes were very well done, with set decoration included. I wish that I could have seen the movie on a big-screen, with a Bruckheimer-type budget to follow. It was a nice way to spend my evening, though. Good entertainment.
