American Beauty

1/4 stars

Ah, finally a movie giving smug, fashionably apathetic teenagers the recognition they deserve!

Great Expectations

4/4 stars

An excellent combination of the classic with a modern style and psychological approach. Very well made.

The Bourne Identity

3/4 stars

Possibly my least favorite of the three. A bit clumsy compared to the latter two. Example: why does Castel come through Bourne's window on a wire to attack? That's a little over the top and flashy. Some points back for conveying the premise, a task the other two movies obviously aren't required to do; as well as for Clive Owen's cool, understated performance.
