  "Millions"Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by Totoro's Neighbor Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

I just wanted to suggest a live-action film for people who like movies like "My Neighbor Totoro"

The live action film is called "Millions", film from director Danny Boyle.
Danny Boyle is known for "Trainspotting" "The Beach", and "28 Days Later".

Here's a link to the IMDB entry for the movie:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0366777/

If you've seen the film and would like to comment on it...feel free to do so.

Here's the IMDb link for it - http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0366777/

I saw the movie quite recently and to be honest I didn't think too much of it. I don't see much resemblance between Millions and My Neighbour Totoro either.

The main character, Damian, was a little too 'goody two-shoes' for me and the film felt like it was trying to impose his ethics on the audience. I found it almost near impossible to relate or sympathize with the character, his behaviour, and particularly his creepy delusions.

On a more positive note, the rest of the cast were pretty good and the film featured some beautiful camera work. I also liked the notion of two kids finding a million pounds (or more like 200,000 I think) -although I don't like the way it was handled..
