ASd said:I have a feeling that anyone who enjoys this movie probably loves "Lost in Translation" too, but honestly, I can't stand either of them.😬 What do I know, though? There's a certain "tennis-marina" vibe to it, but it just feels way too formulaic for my taste; I watched it ages ago and it never really clicked with me...
The only part I actually enjoyed was in "Not Another Teen Movie," specifically that scene where the guy in the stands sings "Janie's Got a Gun," they play the love police, and then they hit her with that electric device! 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 Or even when they parody that famous song—maybe it was a bit hit-or-miss, but if we're being honest, I wasn't even a fan of the song in the movie itself, so...
I’m just not a fan of Julia Stiles. I don't know, it feels like she never quite managed to step out from under the shadow cast by Kirsten Dunst, especially with this new wave of teen movies led by Malone-Moore-Duff and the rest of them... and now she's acting all quirky after being dropped from those sitcoms with Kelly from Beverly Hills... I think it was Amanda Staal or something? She's doing that "She's the Man" thing now, where she goes all out dressing up as a guy and everyone just falls for it instantly...
Oh, and then there's the person who has completely stepped into Julia Stiles' shoes, which is Natalie Portman, whom "everyone" seems to be annoyed by, but personally, she "terribly" "irritates" me... both her roles and her actual acting style... even if she seems perfectly lovely in person (like during an interview), when she's on screen 👎
She might not be a powerhouse actress, but comparing her directly to Duff or Moore isn't really fair, is it?🙂
And comparing her to Portman isn't right either because they are built so differently, and frankly, the films they star in are in completely different leagues and can't even be compared...
I actually find Dunst to be the most similar to her...
... at the end of the day, tastes vary, so anything goes, right?😉
