narnia, nueve vidas, match point

i watched nine lives last night
a powerful movie that details precise and decisive fragments of the life of 9 different women
here a review of nine lives from the new york times
i rated it 3 stars (out of 5 ala nytimes style's scale)


thanks to netflix and my lazyness i have seen many movies lately
among the very high recommendations i would say

The Chronicles of Narnia: the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

an excellent movie! i haven't read c.s. lewis originals, i have just read his 'alice in wonderland' both in Spanish when i was 12 and recently in English, however, even if not sure how close the movie is to the film, i did enjoy it as i haven't with an adult film in years
my favorite characters of course the adorable mr. tumnus, the faun,

and aslan the lion
(if i could have a kitty i would like to have one like this one)
i gave the chronicles of narnia 4 stars (out of 5)
here the review of the nytimes as well

as a quick note and to complete later don't miss the superb thriller, different treatment yet keeping many of the best elements in his movies, woody allen's match point , superb indeed is the word
i would give it 4 and 1/3's stars (out of 5)

also many other great movies but these for now...
