Almost always. Don't know why I bother reading them. For instance, I thought TSS was supposed to be scary, and it wasn't. Yes, psychological thriller is what it is, like Se7en (watched that the night before) and to some extent Panic Room (last week I think). I guess I don't really have any movies of the "horror" genre here, maybe Brotherhood of the Wolf is border.As for Godfather II, that is a sophisticated and subtle film (for me). I'm sure I'll have to watch it a few times to get all that's going on. It is a pastiche of so many situations and events, quick scene changes, that the contextual meaning of a few of them escaped me. Maybe now that I've seen the whole thing, on second watching I'll be able to figure out what the stuff that went over my head means. It's a long movie, but it sure didn't seem long. Well done, very restrained performances by the actors, seemed real. Do you notice how, these days, that so many actors' performances are over the top, and don't seem very realistic? It's as though they figure they have to hit you in the head to convey significance, they (or directors/studio/etc.) presume we're not too bright.
