The Aspiring

Hey hey! Starting this blog, and I am just actually copying this idea from Estephanie Frank, a friend of mine. I just thought-- hey Nika, stupid wanting to be a screenwriter/director someday wherein I don't freaking watch A LOT as in A LOT of movies like the aspiring people like me. So what the heck! I'll start this blog and see if I'll be better next year! Disclaimer: Don't believe on my ratings, it's not professional rating. It is solely based on my emotions and feeling at the time I watched the movie. So, don't watch high rated movies I rated. Smile :)) AND BTW, I realize, I am stupid, and weird. I have this very odd preference and taste for movies. People might not like my opinion about the movies, so if you are reading this DO NOT TAKE THE BLOG POSTS AND THE RATE SERIOUSLY. This blog is made specifically for my own growth. Love love. Pardon with wrong grammar and SYNTAX ERRORS

92. Paprika (3.75/5)



So, I was amazed with Inception. Then my brother introduced me to this anime. He said that this is the Japanese version of Inception. He said that one of his friends recommended this to him-- a friend who thinks that Inception is just a rip off from this movie.

I watched it with high expectations, and indeed, it bombarded me with high levelness. This movie brought me in to realization that I am, indeed a product of mainstream media. Fine, I love the dreamy sequence and the attempt to make something refreshing and something that makes you feel with the movie, but its just to much for me. I hate it when I don't get the storyline entirely.

I still love Inception because few watches and you'll understand the intricacies of the subplots. Paprika however feels like a REAL DREAM where things are rumble jumble and you can't seem to grasp what message the movie wants to tell you. I maybe stupid, but the thing I hate about Paprika is that it wouldn't be appreciated by many. Only intellectuals will understand.

But I love the freedom... I think the concept of dreams and reality mixed together is somehow scary for me, that's all. :) The movie is still great, its just not for everyone. :) BUT I DO ADORE SATOSHI KON SO MUCH! HE IS A FREAKING GENIUS! I can't level with him! Not in a million years! I can say that I wouldn't do anything like this.... but I adore him so much, what kind of mind he has! My Golly! :)

I give this movie 3.75/5
