• The Jacket — for The Jacket
  Written by melchett on 26.06.2009

  The main character is a former soldier of the Irak's war. He got a severe injury on the head during the war.
  While he was walking to go to Canada, a man drove him a couple of miles. But the car got arrested by police.
  We then discover that the cop was shot, and he's accused of the crime. Due to his amnesia, he is condemned to be interned in a psychatric institution... where the doctors employ stranges practices to cure some of their patients. That's the beginning of weird mental experiences for him.

  Very moving, poignant movie.
  I think it can't let indifferent.

• Spicy taste for Big sound and Agitated pictures — for Papurika

  Paprika is a name of a red couloured spice.
  Paprika is the name of the animation movie of Satoshi Kon.
  Paprika is the name of a kind of virtual person that can go through different realities in this film. This girl is quite spicy.

  In the future, a company is developping the DC mini. This small engine, putten on the head of a person, gives acces to his dreams.
  But suddenly everything goes wrong. A DC mini is stolen, and someone is able to hack the dreams.
  Between dreams (and stranges images, like in every dreams) and reality, Paprika, a few scientists and an inspector try to catch the one who stole the DC mini.

  I saw it in a cinema, in real good conditions to have the full power of the soundtrack in the ears, and wow !
  The "dreams" aspect is also really well done and disconcerting with all the weird transformations that happens. Very dynamic movie, little time to rest.
  The drawing is really precise.
