Birth

I like Nicole Kidman; she's proven to be a very good actress in many occasions. Birth is one: she does a good job, and has a rather pretty short haircut, too. The movie is very beautiful mixture of subtle background music and long, slow shots. It's great cinema, but a boring movie.

The plot is somewhat interesting and the final turn is quite strong, but in the end it lacks something... I found the movie beautiful and even touching, but wouldn't see it again, it just wasn't that interesting.

Land of the Dead

We enjoyed the Dawn of the Dead (the remake from last year, not the original) a lot, but Land of the Dead was even better.

It had everything you'd wish for: lots of action, no blatant stupidities in the plot (no heroic rescuing of lost dogs or anything like that), interesting characters, some accurate social commentary and very neat living dead.

As action films come, Land of the Dead is highly recommended.
