Bridesmaids (2011) 

English This title can be discouraging for a guy, especially the Czech title, but even the male generation should not be discouraged. Besides seeing how women can be bitches, what wars they can lead, how crazy they can be, we also watch a good comedy that may not keep you on the edge of your seat every minute, but you will have a good time with it. Because unlike many other works, it does not lack a strong story. This is something it has in common with the movie "Kopačky". "Women Only" is actually about how one of the six friends is getting married. But it's not really about that so much. What got me is the fact that it's mainly about people, their stories, and that even this unique event can be a catalyst for hatred. Annie has the main role in this, and she definitely is not a positive character, but you may even hate her. Annie is simply crazy and she is the one who ruins everything. But in the end, friendship fixes everything. I know it sounds pathetic, but it is presented tastefully in the movie. I also like the film because Chris O'Dowd, aka Roy from "The IT Crowd," appears in it. Melissa McCarthy also draws a lot of attention and she is a revelation. She is vulgar, disgusting, bold, and great. Deserving of an Oscar nomination. More: http://www.filmovy-denik.cz/2012/04/diar-milovnika-filmu-c-0002-zajimave.html

Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008) 

English If any hope was born among comedians, then it is Jason Segel. Not only did he write the script for this film, but he also played the lead role, showed his own naturalness and, above all, made me laugh. This person already captivated me in the series "How I Met Your Mother", was the only bright spot in the film "Forgetting Sarah Marshall", and he even managed to succeed on the big screen with "The Muppets". "The Five-Year Engagement" is an incredibly entertaining film that does not rely on awkward toilet humor, but on humor that is sometimes truly clever, although there is quite a bit of less noble humor as well. I can recommend "The Five-Year Engagement" to anyone who enjoys interesting comedies, good actors, and dislikes awkwardness. Speaking of which, the impression from the film was similar to the subsequent film that I had the pleasure of seeing. That film was "Bridesmaids".

50/50 (2011) 

English Some situations in life are simply not easy. You can run, not smoke, eat fairly healthy, but it still won't save you from cancer. This bitch just appears in anyone's life, she's not exactly picky. When Adam, a young man, finds out he has cancer, he is quite surprised. On the other hand, we must realize one crucial thing - the main characters in the movie are Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen, especially the latter is not someone who plays in fundamentally dramatic films. Is it possible to approach the diagnosis of cancer humorously, or at least with a smile? More: http://www.filmovy-denik.cz/2013/02/5050-2011-70.html

The Iron Lady (2011) 

English Jesus, this was directed by the director who directed that awful film "Mamma Mia!". I've heard those kinds of voices before. But unlike them, I actually liked "Mamma Mia!". Of course, mainly because I like the songs of ABBA and I'm glad they suit modern arrangement as well. But the film was also interesting because of the performances - Meryl Streep, Colin Firth, Amanda Seyfried, Stellan Skarsgård, and maybe even Pierce Brosnan. They are capable of giving a good performance and I liked that about them. Meryl Streep returned to the director and deserved an Oscar thanks to her role as Margaret Thatcher. Completely deserved. The film stands and falls with her performance. The other actors support her well, especially Jim Broadbent, who played an old grumpy man, and it suits him. He can evoke the right emotions. And it's mainly the emotions that the director attacks. It's true that without Meryl and great makeup artists (by the way, they also won an Oscar), the film might have been forgettable, but like this, it deserves attention. And for those unfamiliar with history, they will learn something about how important the Iron Lady was for her country. Don't expect a historical film, but a story about a woman who meant well, but ended up with everything on her. Maybe a bit too emotional, but it just works for me. When there's a good actor, they can occasionally divert your attention from an average screenplay. And no, I really don't mind watching old people in a film.

Jack and Jill (2011) 

English I am a stubborn defender of Adam Sandler and I like his movies. Recently, I was interested in "Machos", but also "Funny People". Maybe it was because he softened a bit. But thanks to Jill, he was able to return to his pose, which is annoying for some people. And in this case, it was. Sandler as Jack is fine. He maintains his standard and is also funny. Sandler as Jill is unbearable. He has a terrible voice that is really annoying, and besides, the character itself is worthy of hatred. Sandler probably decided to do what Eddie Murphy did: ruin his career in movies where he plays all the roles. I hope he will recover because I still believe in him, but with another similar movie, he will only kill his promising career, which is already dead to many. By the way, did you notice that Katie Holmes was in the movie? I hardly noticed. Al Pacino is a great actor, and it's nice that he can make fun of himself. But the final scene would have been enough for that. The presence of Johnny Depp was pleasing. When he appeared on the screen, the movie's rating immediately went up by 50%.

Flags of Our Fathers (2006) 

English I know, I'm not stating any news here, but I just haven't seen all the movies right when they were released. I like Clint Eastwood. Recently, I watched his "Gran Torino" and my jaw dropped. When I was watching "Flags of Our Fathers," my jaw dropped again. This time because of how much the battle scenes resemble those in Steven Spielberg's film "Saving Private Ryan." I wanted to tear apart Eastwood's film, but then I realized I'm not even halfway through yet. You shouldn't give up on Clint too early, because what he lacks in originality in the war scenes, he truly makes up for with the human aspect of the story. And that's the most important thing about "Flags of Our Fathers." Humanity, or maybe inhumanity, the moments when a person becomes a hero without deserving it, and when they face a fall that they might not deserve either. An excellent human story that touched me. If you have Clint in your mind as a patriot, I think here he will show you that he is quite a realist. More: http://www.filmovy-denik.cz/2012/03/diar-milovnika-filmu-c-0001-cista-duse.html

A Beautiful Mind (2001) 

English What can I say. I simply do not like Russell Crowe and I avoid movies with him. But when you are at your girlfriend's parents' house, you can't choose the movies. And it happened to be "A Beautiful Mind". Hoping that Crowe and Ridley Scott did not collaborate on this one, as their combination is truly deadly for me, I hoped that the movie wouldn't be so bad. And it wasn't. Even though I have seen many movies lately where everything is a little different, this film simply got to me. Crowe is incredible and I can't understand how he could have won an Oscar for "Gladiator" but not for this. I can really recommend this film to anyone interested in game theory and decision making. It is presented in a way that everyone can understand and it is also an acting masterpiece. Until the end, the viewer who is unfamiliar with Nash's life is not sure what is actually going on with him. My opinion of Crowe hasn't changed, but he convinced me at least that he can act.
