I decided to compare these two titles, instead of writing about each separately. They have a lot in common, but one thing’s for sure – they’re both worth watching.
L.J. Smith “The Awakening” (The Vampire Diaries),
The Vampire Diaries (2009) Dir. Marcos Siega (season 1),
Stephanie Meyer “Twilight” & “New Moon,”
Cassandra Clare “City of Bones” (Mortal Instruments)
I’d like to comment on a few popular titles that I find absolutely worthless. I’m not going to review them, but rather express briefly what I think of them. From time to time, I experiment with literature, especially bestselling books, just to see what such a wide audience finds attractive. My “experiment” boils down to reading the beginning chapter(s) of a book to see how unbearable it gets (if it does).
This Is It (2009) Dir. Kenny Ortega

This documentary is an amazing experience opening before us MJ’s tremendous rehearsals before his last tour. This is magic. This is It.
Largo Winch (2008) Dir. Jerome Salle
Minor spoilers!

From time to time, I take a break from watching Hollywood and Hollywoodish productions. However, this movie turns out to be more than a mere break. It exceeds many of this summer’s blockbusters by far.
Slumdog Millionaire (2008) Dir. Danny Boyle
Minor spoilers.

I didn’t realize that a story about children from the Mumbai slums could be such a gripping story.
Little Children (2006) Dir. Todd Field
Spoilers!

I have ambiguous feelings about this movie. On the one hand, it’s great—the dialogues and the narration, the greatest forces of the film, are smart and powerful. On the other, I have a sense of feeling that the second part is much better than the first one. But it’s exactly the ending that left me touched, shaken, and in tears.
“Disgrace” John Maxwell Coetzee
Spoilers!

It’s been several weeks since I finished the book, and I’m still under its impression. My life with Coetzee begins with “Disgrace.”
