The Interpreter (2005)

Director: Sydney Pollack
Writing credits: Martin Stellman, Brian Ward
Screen Play: Charles Randolph, Scott Frank, Steven Zaillian
Casts: Sean Penn, Nicole Kidman
Language: English
Genre: Thriller, Drama
Year: 2005

Intense, real, thrilling, and bold at times. A typical setting for an Hollywood political movie with some love scene but how the love between Silvia (Nicole Kidman) and her brother was expressed on the screen and throughout the story line was surprisingly outstanding but implicit.

Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004)

Director: Michael Moore
Genre: Documentary
Language: English
Year: 2004

There are times that you can't put your feelings into words when you are out of the cinema after watching a great movie. 'Faranhait 9/11' can't be quoted as a great movie and I don't think it's what Michael Moore expected as a comment of his effort.

Before Sunset (2004)

Director: Richard Linklater
Writing credits: Richard Linklater, Kim Krizan
Casts: Ethan Hawke, Juile Delpy
Language: English, French
Genre: Romance, Drama
Year: 2004




It was a rather short movie with an unexpected shocking ending, not dramatically ended but in an odd fashion. The story lived up with all the romance, the well balanced love talk with a hint of sex kept the dialogue blossoming throughout the less-than-100-minute motion picture but I seriously doubt such movie would impress most of the audiences in Hong Kong where romance is interpreted radically different and love is often polluted by LV and Prada, Mezedez-Benz and big house.
