Thanks for replying.

First, I'm sorry for the lack of comments on cinematography. I don't have any knowledge in that area. I'm a Lit major, so what I review for is the story, are there holes, was it coherent, did it flow well, etc. I comment on how it made me feel and why I think it made me feel that way. I'm thinking of looking up more on cinematography to help me with reviews. But I'm mostly doing this to practice writing outside of school. There's also the fact that I did these reviews at three in the morning. I'll watch the movies again and revise the reviews when I've had a sufficient amount of sleep.

Sometimes a good story-line will blind me to other aspects of a movie/show/book. It's a weakness I'm trying to correct. This is why I really like a show like Weiss Kreuz. That is the most cliched, melodramatic piece of crap anime I've seen in a long time, but the story of each character is so intriguing and has so much potential that I love it anyway and watch it to learn as much as I can about each character...and then analyze each.

I spent more time on Hyde's acting because I found it so lacking. I also need to focus more on the good instead of harping about the bad. Sorry. But I really do think he could do well with training. Not spectacular, Johnny Depp, Morgan Freeman acting, but good nonetheless.
