Jan 10MAYBE SEE IT / THE IMAGINARIUM
Maybe. I use the word maybe because I wouldn’t give this movie anything above a 6 on the Natalie James scale of 1 – 10. Sorry Terry, it just wasn’t particularly good. Why do your movies always die off towards the end? Please pull it together so I can enjoy my movie going experience. Also, please lay off the CGI. I swear if I could revoke one thing from film history, it would be the invention and inclusion of CGI.
Now that we’ve got that out of the way, please let me tell you how amazing the costumes in this film are. That is one characteristic of a Gilliam film I can always get behind. Fear and Loathing anyone? If you love costumes and sets as much as I do, then go for it. Lily Cole looked phenomenal in the role of Valentina and I was quite pleased with her acting skills. Well done Lily! Christopher Plummer also donned quite the attire as the immortal Dr. Parnassus. Bad plot twists aside, this film offered magical scenescapes and an envy worthy collection of clothes.
