StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
MartinHafer I must applaud the makers of EX LIBRIS for coming up with a 'novel' idea, but unfortunately, the film's 10 minute length was too long--as the idea wore a bit thin after a while.The film consists of books that are animated using stop-motion. I am talking about the actual books--not the stories within them. As you see books on a shelf, they come to life--attacking or eating each other, dancing, or whatever. Pictures within the books also come to life and it is charming in its way. It's neat to see at first--after all, who would have thought of doing this? Overall, worth a look but not a film to change your life.
