Fantasia 2009 ends
Whew! Finally over. And I am so done. Those seats in the Hall theatre are torture! I really don’t know how I keep doing this each year. Then again I know some people who go to 30+ movies a year. One dude goes to every movie possible, as in every movie that doesn’t conflict with another movie playing in a different theatre. Now that’s dedication!
Anyway I thought I’d rank the films I’ve seen from worst to best so you’ll know what to bother downloading. Here goes:
Yesterday
Mutants
Genius Party Beyond
Sans Desseins
Cyborg She
Yatterman
Cryptic
Best Worst Movie
Infestation
My Dear Enemy
Canary
Edison and Leo
Tokyo OnlyPic 2008
The Children
Instant Swamp
Antique
Fine, Totally Fine
Love Exposure

Genius Party Beyond
Meh. I wasn’t feeling it this year. You can only catch lightning in a bottle once I suppose.

Antique
This Korean film is deliciously gorgeous. It’s about a group of men who run a cake shop and the eye candy on display is a sight to behold and leaves the mouth watering. Even someone like me, who isn’t a big fan of rich sweets felt tempted to taste… although I was maybe a bit more tempted by the pretty men than the pretty food.
Oh yeah, the story? Also good. Cool to see a gay Asian film… although it’s not really a gay story, but the homosexuality of one of the characters does figure prominently.
Very enjoyable, amusing, sweet and fun with a few frenetic dance/fantasy scenes and some nice “scary” scenes as well.
