Every couple of months there is always a great chick flick out in the theaters. While not every movie is stellar, most chick flicks allow you to get close to your honey and relax together spending quality time. Girls love attention and they appreciate when a guy sacrifices their entertainment for their girlfriend. Most guys find these chick flicks terribly boring but are willing to sit through them and sometimes become mildly entertained for the sake of their relationship.

If you can’t make it to the theater, check out your local video store. There are plenty of chick flick classics such as Pretty Women, Legally Blonde and Bridget Jones’s Diary.

So if you want to get close to your honey, spring for night out at the theater or at home watching chick flicks.

The world is your oyster darling and there are a lot of great stories in that little oyster. Stories of betrayal and faith and vengeance, but who would have thought there would be a story as far-fetchedly out of this oyster as Machiavelli Hangman (http://www.hangmanmovie.com)? Does this plot fit in any of the conventional films that we have previously grown to watch and know and love? In film school, they taught us that there were 20 main plots because those are the stories that can tell the human condition. These range from the heroic adventure to the underdog story to the sacrifice and countless others. Machiavelli Hangman seems to take all those sub-categories and create one that stands on its own. It’s a combination of the underdog story with the sacrifice and the heroic adventure.

The filmmakers of this film have truly created something so unique that it represents a new breed of filmmaking altogether. When I was watching the film, I wasn’t quite sure what to make of it. Whether it was a comedy like the one I had recently seen with Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson (Wedding Crashers), or if it was an inspirational historical drama like Cinderella Story or an action adventure bonanza like Spielberg’s latest War of the Worlds.

Being a film critic, I have to criticize, but it makes my job so difficult when there’s barely anything to criticize. After the first 10 minutes, I simply just sat back… I’m sorry, let me rephrase, I was uncontrollably pushed back to settle into my comfortable seat and enjoy the fluidity of the story. It flowed like a stream, so seamlessly that I completely forgot that I have been a critique for the last two years and I went back to my childhood when I used to watch films with an innocent nonanalytical mind.

The actors were all splendid as they delivered one-liners like “I was born out of a coconut” or consistent references to “rubbing one out.” The dialogue was a familiar reminder of Quentin Tarantino’s free flowing rhetorical conversations but in this movie, every single detail is there for a reason.

In conclusion, I must tell you that no matter how cynical and cautious you are about movies these days, this film will find a way to creep into your brain and stay there until you can’t think of anything else. It has beats and it absolutely had me in a tight grip by the 10th beat which happens within the first twenty-five minutes. Machiavelli Hangman is a trap and you will walk in and get caught and love every second of it.

Here is a case in point- 2004 was a strange, if not bad, year for movies. Now, I’m not talking about the quality of films, they were probably right on par. But, Hollywood has been growing scared. Scared to create films that fall away from standard conventions and afraid to try films that may tilt a couple heads or raise a few brows. If it wasn’t for a few HUGE films in 2004, including some that distributors were afraid of, everybody may have felt that Hollywood was losing us. However, it seems that Hollywood is willing to turn a cheek and come stronger than it ever has this century [never mind Lord of the Rings] with the bringing in of 2005.

2004 Poor for Movies
I can understand how it may be hard to fathom that Hollywood did not have one of its best years during 2004. Sure, the film companies were still able to pull in film revenues with a little over nine billion, but ticket sales were actually DOWN by a startling two percent. Now, I know this doesn’t sound like much, but it is! For the year of 2004, distributors were planning on conquering the box offices with films such as Troy, Alexander, The Whole Ten Yards, The Village and Van Helsing. However, all of these films flopped [Van Helsing is doing great with DVD though]. No matter how impressive the battles or sequences, audiences left the theatres feeling unsatisfied. So what was wrong with the films? And who saved 2004?

Four of the biggest hitters of 2004 came out of either CG animation or children’s tales. Shrek 2 began with a bang and was able to gross somewhere just under $450 million in ticket sales. Then we had Pixar’s The Incredibles, which proved that animated films with adult-style action and subject matter can still be successful [~$275 million gross]. Last of the animations was Spider-Man 2 [the fights were almost entirely animated]. I can call this an animation as the fight scenes were well animated and the film seemed to run like a perfect animated comic [~$370 million gross]. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, based of the ‘childrens’ book [I beg to differ], couldn’t lose with a darker atmosphere set up by Alfonso Cuaron [pulled in $250 million]. Obviously, the four listed films were expected to do well in the theatres and all three performed gracefully. But what about the films that nobody wanted or were afraid to touch?

The two films that were handled like boiling water were Mel Gibson’s Passion of the Christ and Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11. Even though these films caused a lot of tension amidst their distributors [Einstein was pissed!], the two films managed to pull just under a combined $500 million in ticket sales. So that would make five big blockbusters for the year; not nearly enough. While Passion and Fahrenheit were more than plesent surprises, what about the other films?

The best thing to come out of 2004 is the amount of surprise hits that were able to maintain some theatre presence longer than just opening weekend. The only thing that hurt most the surprise hits for 2004 was the invisible barrier that would not allow a lot of films to break the $100 million mark. Here are some of the films that were able to break that mark [with a brief thought on how they were]:

Shark Tale- I would hope this out of a high cast CGI animation
I, Robot- I still don’t know if I liked this film or not. Seemed a little rushed.
National Treasure- One of the best surprise films all year.
The Village- Only got passed $100 million thanks to hype.

Luckily, Hollywood did not have to rely on only these films. Even though the industry hoped to have at least double the number of films to get passed the $100 million mark, there were some other sleeper films that helped maintain high 2004 numbers. Some of these films include Mean Girls [a teenie bopper that anybody could like], Man on Fire, and The Notebook, Friday Night Lights and Napoleon Dynamite.

What’s Wrong with Movies in 2004?
Eternal Sunshine takes you on a journey through love and the mind.The best example to give for what happened to movies in 2004 is the upcoming Academy Awards. Take a close look at the nominated films, what we have are dramas and bio-pics. People are losing interest; our top rated films are the ones that few people saw. We don’t have a Lord of the Rings this year, or any other film that people want to sit down and root for. Want further proof? Why do you think Chris Rock is stepping in as host in order to atract a younger crowd?

Also, where the hell is Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind? I know it has a few nominations, but it deserves a few more. The film, starring Jim Carrey, only grossed $34 million in ticket sales [domestically] and was probably one of the most unique and plain out cool films of the year. Forget the biographies and the straight forward dramas, Spotless offers up an extremely unique outlook on love and the new ways to handle it. And, mind you, it falls entirely away from the simple conventions overly used in films during 2004.

In conclusion– Hollywood needs to get people back in the theatres and buying tickets for films that deserve hyped attention. The best way to do this is by creating blockbusters that can actually remain in theatres longer than an opening weekend or two. Viewers are tired of films that just go through the motions and are now seeking something extremely polished or unique. Films of 2004 had lost the ability of ‘word of mouth’, but I expect that 2005 should regain all of this– as Hollywood now seems ready to take some chances.
