Book to Movie

Everything Is Illuminated
The DOP did a dope job. Same with Eugene Hutz. I wanted to do many premium carnal things with Alex. Everything else was meh. Oh yeah, the Ukraine is beautiful. I've read the book and the only impreessive parts for me were the explanation of the title and all of Alex's parts. I hate to say it but the book was still better than the movie.

Howl's Moving Castle
I really like Studio Ghibli's stuff, but I'm no fangirl of Miyazaki-san. Mind you, I haven't seen Spirited Away, but so far this is my fav movie by him. The fantastic elements aren't too intrusive, and who doesn't love a simple love story involving wizards and witches, war, and Christian Bale's husky voice? I'm really curious as to what the book is like.

SEE THIS MOVIE.
That is all. The more I think about it the more I love it. I MUST read this book. Seriously, do yourself a favor and see this movie. I don't know where to begin with how good it is. The cast, the cinematography, the performance, the script, the direction. Sure, you'll glance over at the imdb and say, "The cast? Keanu Reeves is in the movie. How good can the cast be?" First, I must admonish you for ignoring Vince Vaughan, Vincent D'Onforio, Benjamin Bratt, and the always amazing Tilda Swinton. Secondly, say what you may about Mr. Reeves' skill as an actor, but you can't ignore the fact he chooses great movies/scripts. Also, Lou Pucci debut as an actor in the film is wonderful. Absolutely amazing work.
