DVD Reviews of Bella
DVD Review: Too Little Too Long
Summary: 1 Stars
So boring. So empty. The tedious food scenes. The kindergarten dialogue. The drawn out visuals. The pretending that there is a "new" perspective on the eternal dilemma between abortion and adoption and life; there is nothing new, only the same painful anguish of the predicament. What most upset me was the ridiculousness of attributing such high guilt and shame to the most innocent accident. There is no fault, no responsibility; only an accidental tragedy and yet we are supposed to believe that the driver had to go to prison for four years? Please! All together a complete waste of time. DVD Review: Beautiful Story
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a story based upon situations which occur in real life. It brings out what's truly important and how healing can be found by helping another. You won't forget it.DVD Review: Boring Propaganda
Summary: 1 Stars
I thought this looked like an interesting indie film with an "interesting twist" described on the back. As I watched this film I could barely get through the boring "ordinary day" between Nina and 'Jesus' as they had pointless scenes in NYC that had nothing to do with the plot. The whole film is about pro-life and pro-adoption. That isn't necessarily a bad thing but when you just create a propaganda film without a story it is revolting. Please think of a plot and compelling story before attaching a message at the end of a boring, predictable, and pointless 90 minute film.DVD Review: Scarred for life
Summary: 2 Stars
Hello yeah don't want to rain on everyone's parade but the tragic scene where the little girl is run over and her mother discovers her lifeless body will give me nightmares for the rest of my life. I suppose it's the sign of a good film if a movie can move someone that deeply. Personally I would have prefered to not have watched that horror. Also, well I thought it was somewhat lame that the woman facing the unexpected pregnancy didn't raise her own daughter. And I just wanted to smack her when she kept on crying at the end of the film when she was meeting her daughter for the first time. If she cared that much why didn't she raise her? Anyway I'm glad others love this movie and that it has provoked conversation, but I personally will regret the day I viewed it for the rest of my life LOL. God bless! DVD Review: Bella
Summary: 5 Stars
Bella is the most heart warming movies ever produced. The story will soar your thoughts to realize that life is a gift from God, a gift that we must protect and be ever thankful for. I am so grateful that movies like Bella reach the people with a message to uplift, give hope, and portray a human life as the most treasured posession on the face of the earth!
Description of Bella
An international soccer star (Eduardo Verastegui) is on his way to sign a multimillion dollar contract when something happens that brings his career to an abrupt end. A beautiful waitress (Tammy Blanchard), struggling to make it in New York City, discovers something about herself that she's unprepared for. In one irreversible moment, their lives are turned upside down...until a simple gesture of kindness brings them both together, turning an ordinary day into an unforgettable experience.Life is a complicated journey in which right and wrong are sometimes indistinct and where the things that really matter are often unclear. Bella is a powerful, leisurely-paced film in which Jose (Eduardo Verastegui) and Nina (Tammy Blanchard) struggle to do what's right while seeking meaning in their lives. A quiet, brooding man with a dark past, Jose works as a chef in his brother Manny's (Manny Perez) restaurant where he mostly keeps to himself until young waitress Nina is fired. Touched by Manny's unfair treatment of Nina, Jose impulsively leaves work to follow Nina and spends a day with her where he discovers that she is pregnant and alone. The two become incredibly close in the space of a day, sharing their pasts, feelings, and fears, and a lasting friendship is born. As Nina struggles with her pregnancy options and Jose comes to terms with a horrific incident from his past, the pair's newfound friendship aids in growth and healing. In the end, Jose and Nina's lives become permanently intertwined in a most beautiful and unexpected way. Bella is a moving, introspective film that will inspire serious personal reflection. --Tami Horiuchi
