Mamet's direction seems more suited to plays, and almost everything, even outdoor areas, are filmed like they are enclosed places, it seems. At least that is the feeling you get from watching the movies, especially since there only seem to be 3 people on the screen at all times, max. But he directs them probably because if he didn't then the movies probably would not get made (and possibly he just wants to direct, and be a director).
The thing about Spartan that confused me is I kept expecting everything to be some kind of fake out, even all the way from Val Kilmer bitch slapping that guy so hard that a giant ridiculous spray of blood comes out (and then the guy kills himself soon after), and all this stuff, I was thinking IT IS ALL A CON AND NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS, and then it turns out no it's just a story with things happening. It just didn't seem real, so the whole movie was like not a real story. |

So what's the consensus on Bourne? by Lizard_King 08/05/2007, 10:21am PDT
I thought the first two were about the best spy movies since True Lies. NT by Jerry Whorebach 08/05/2007, 10:24am PDT
I can't tell if that's sarcasm since I liked True Lies but many people pan it. NT by Lizard_King 08/05/2007, 11:54am PDT
True Lies is sincerely one of the greatest works of art of the 20th century. NT by Jhoh Clbbl O_____O 08/05/2007, 1:12pm PDT
A simple "yes it was sarcasm" or "no it wasn't" will suffice. by Lizard_King 08/05/2007, 2:46pm PDT

Uh, best spy movies since Ronin by laudablepuss 08/06/2007, 4:01am PDT
I debated whether Ronin should go in the spy movie or merc movie category. by Jerry Whorebach 08/06/2007, 10:19am PDT
Ronin's a spy movie? by Lizard_King 08/06/2007, 10:43am PDT
Calling it a spy movie is almost a spoiler. by Jerry Whorebach 08/06/2007, 11:43am PDT
Excellent. I'll check it out. by Lizard_King 08/06/2007, 11:57am PDT
