Few worst movies from 2007

At this moment, following are the top worst movies for year 2007.
Still I have to watch many 2007 movies.

1) Spider man-3

Remember all the action & thrills & comedy in the first two parts.
(Not only Spider man, I don’t like Pirates 3, Shrek 3 & Ocean's 13 too.
I was so surprise that these movies are finding a place in top 10 movies of 2007.)

2) The Brothers Solomon
Comedy? Plan stupid & horrible

3) Catch and Release
In one word "terrible"

My last movies of 2007


1) The Black Dahlia
Solid premise for good murder mystery however it was long and unengaging & poor character development spoiled the show. {I will write my take later.}


2) Short films: The 2006 Academy Award Nominated Shorts
by Magnolia
Ended year 2007 with above short movies DVD.

A breaf list of short movies were


1) WEST BANK STORY (Oscar winner)
With West Bank as a background, this short film is a musical comedy set in the fast-paced, fast-food world of competing falafel stands. Perfect satire on the West bank tragedies. Everything balanced correctly i.e. action, music, funny yet effective positive story.


2) HELMER & SON
A son is called to the nursing home, where his father has recently been admitted, who has locked himself inside his closet. Conversion alone shocking & done very well. My second favorite in the list.


3) BINTA AND THE GREAT IDEA
With poor African nation as a background, this short film tracks the story of a girl, Binta, a 7-year-old girl, sets out to change the life of her young cousin; she was not allowed to go to school by her stupid father. Story was convoluted but Background music alone worth the watch.


4) ONE TOO MANY
When his wife leaves him, Joaquin and his young son turn to her mother for help with the cooking and cleaning. Very good one.

5) THE SAVIOUR

A door to door evangelist has an affair with a married housewife. Movie ending was very funny.

The rest of the shorts on the DVD were excellent and worth viewing.
A must for short films lovers. Completely satisfied with shorts collections.
