Cike Nie Yin Niang (2015)
Cinematic Masterpiece of Nothing
Not sure what the fuzz was about. This is no Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. This is a convoluted mess with annoying people standing around doing absolutely nothing but modeling old Chinese apparel. Am I suppose to be super genius to understand the plot of this movie? Or was I merely zombiefied by the boredom of every scene that I totally missed the plot of this movie? There is no substance in this movie, no memorable action, nada. I can't even understand why people call this a cinematic master piece. Oh, there were scenes alright, scenes of people standing still and fog moving around.
Pointless, skip it, trust me.
Experimenter (2015)
My Wife Hated it I loved it.
Yes, as many other reviewers have eluded, the movie can be a bit dry. My wife got lost in the message because she lost interest rather quickly. It wasn't until I explained the message the movie was trying to convey that she seemingly became more interested.
**spoiler** Watch it until the end, the message is rather powerful. I specifically liked the ending because (Sasha) Stanley's wife allowed herself to fall in the same class when the nurse made her fill the paperwork while Stanley is having a heart attack. In this instance, I felt like I would have called BS and told the nurse to get a doctor ASAP, instead of calmly filling out the paperwork like she was doing. But then again, that's exactly the message the movie was delivering, that we easily follow orders without question even against what we think is right.
