DVD Reviews of Wool 100%
DVD Review: Quintessential Japanese strange
Summary: 4 Stars
I spent the first 25 or 30 minutes of this movie in an advanced state of WTF. But it drew me in. Trying to work out what was happening and why and what might happen next was mezmerizing. Some scenes I still haven't figured out. But I loved it and ended the film with a big smile on my face.
I'd give it five stars for entertainment but I took one away for sheer oddity.
DVD Review: weird, weird movie
Summary: 5 Stars
OK, after the worthless 1-star review by the guy who got a bad DVD, I thought I'd chime in about the actual movie...
I'm so glad Amazon has this so I can order it, I want my family to see it. It's a pretty lively flick, but really, really weird. It's not going to be for everyone, it's quirky rather than horror or action, with some rather bittersweet moments.
It's the story of 2 very strange old ladies who wall themselves off from life with their ever-growing collection of found junk. One day though they collect the wrong thing and it has a young girl attached, who enters their home and their lives and endless ruckus ensues. Bit by bit the old ladies are reminded of what young girls are like and recall that they too were once that way. It's a charming, cute, sweet (mostly) journey of ravelings and unravelings, and it really tickled the heck out of me to watch it.
So... it's not gonna change your life, it won't make or break your movie watching career. But it's a really cute, fun movie with lots of little surprises, and very heartwarming. But weird!
DVD Review: Odd
Summary: 2 Stars
This is a very odd movie. No real story, just a series of happenings that are strange. Lots of unanswered questions... Worth $9 just to see an odd movie...DVD Review: unusable product
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this dvd to send to a friend in another city. He has since told me the dvd was stuck in the case, as if the plastic of the case had fused with the dvd. He was unable to remove it from the case. Eventually the dvd cracked and was unreadable. I am very sorry this happened, but I don't think I will order another dvd right now.DVD Review: What the ...... ?
Summary: 5 Stars
Offbeat and original (mostly live action) film by a Japanese animator. It is essentially atmospheric with very little plot or dialog. Two elderly sisters (who could have been created by Beckett) collect junk and fill their house with their finds. One day they find a bunch of red wool and take it home not realizing that a little girl is literally and metaphorically attached to it. She intrudes into their home and knits, destroys, and reknits herself a sweater/dress... and changes their lives. That's pretty much it but you have to see it to be cast under its spell.
