How you gonna call this movie Monsters Ball with no Monsters or sports references in it. If space Jam was called Monsters Ball that'd be awesome!This movie should have been called " Billy Bob Thorton does it Awkwardly with Halle Barey" THAT is a more descriptive title for this film.
EITHERWAY.... even though it was slow; with sparce dialouge and not REALLLY too much going on.
It was an intersting story. And sometimes with these independent artsy type stuff?.. its not what the story is about...
its HOW its told.
and this story is told Very well. Halley Barry is amazing ( and not just naked) she's a teriffic actress; who plays her character insanely well!
It had some great framing and composition work; along with some mildly tense moments of people just doing regular things? It was just a really interseting " Juxta position" \<--- augh i've wanted to use that word FOREVER!!!!
(typed in "Juxta Position" on google images and this is what came up... i coudln't RESIST!!!!)
Eitherway; really well written ( whatever writing there REALLY is) excellently directed; kudos to Ray Romanos Dad for taking on such a controversial role! *ay Frank you talk shit about HB you gonna wind up in an old folks home!*
Also Kudos to Ray Romano for titling the show "everybody loves raymond" and calling his charcter in the show ray romano which i think is his real name?
0 Kudos to Bill Cosby whos name on the show is Cliff Huckstible.. im not really sure why it was called the Cosby show?
also 0 Kudos to heath ledger for eerily for-shadowing his own fate. Err.. in Monsters Ball; not the Cosby Show.
all in all? really good movie; a but slow with some awkward " love" scenes; more deep seated underlying guilt than waht you did last spring break and slightly less racial tension Than Mike Meyers and Kanye West
Also be ready to not be fully satisfied with the end as we all tend to know most " Oscar Winning" films are. As long as you know that going in? and you're aware of the heavy tones of the sujbect matter you're going to have a GREAT TIME at the movies!!
or walk away crying your eyes out
(Jenny; you need to go to the other room to blow your nose; i can't enjoy Halle Barry Topless like this)
Excellent Film.
