It is set in the 1950s, and based on a novel by Richard Yates. Revolutionary Road is about the unfulfilling and hopeless pursuit of the American Dream. Anyway, I think that it is a bit funny that it has taken 8 years for them to make a proper sequel…the basic answer= Vin Diesel’s ego. There aren’t many movies about cars, skanky girls, and gangers (right…).

Michelle Rodriguez has a good point in her interview suggesting that the movie represents a “subculture that never saw themselves before on screen”. But then again, Star Wars is way more long living than say, Vin Diesel.Ĭheck out what the actors themselves have said about reuniting to make this movie. If there are others out there like me, I totally thought that they were relaunching/ re-releasing the original “The Fast and The Furious” back into theatres…similar to what they did with revamping digitial and special effects stuff for Star Wars. I can’t believe that they couldn’t even be bothered to think of a new title…maybe even ‘4 fast and 4 furious’? OR even ‘the fast and furious 4’? That would have been far less confusing. Unfortunately, and embarrassingly I have seen all three…

I guess this is technically the third in the series avec Paul Walker…since the Tokyo Drift movie was just plain random. It all began with “The Fast and The Furious” (2001), followed by “2 Fast 2 Furious” (2003), followed by “The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift” (2006). They have reunited ALL the original “THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS” cast…to make umm a quadre-qual? I guess that’s what you’d call it? It took me awhile to understand what exactly this ‘fast and furious’ business was about.

Aside from these memorable bits, New York I Love You is a pretentious indie film, out of context, a bit overdone, and insincere. I’d say, save your $12 bucks, rent ‘Paris, je t’aime’, or save your dollars for a flight to New York, cause even if this movie seems to have forgotten, there is much to love in the city. There are however, some bright spots – my favorites featured Orlando Bloom as a struggling musician, Eli Wallach and Cloris Leachman as an old married couple, an entertaining bit about a teenage couple at prom, and a funny short with Ethan Hawke and Maggie Q.

Each ended with a ‘clever’ surprise, in what I felt like an attempt to outsmart the viewers with a ‘fake-deep’ message about love, infatuation, lust, romance…the list goes on. Lastly and most troubling, the short stories irked me. I guess it just goes to show that it isn’t the city that is romantic, but rather the stories that take place in them.

I get that New York is a bit of both, but somehow in both scenarios the city feels inanimate, and misunderstood. The shorts feel slow and the bridged sections contrived and chaotic. Again, this is somewhere NY, I Love You misses the mark. PHONEY! I hate that ‘fake magical’ contrived stuff.Īs I have said in my earlier reviews, I enjoyed Paris, je t’aime for its ability to capture the pace and breath of the city. Honestly, who cares if the short stories don’t fit into one clean package, the attempt to connect the stories crushes the POINT of a movie like this, and feels so insincere as the message they force feed you, is that New York is a city of strangers yet ‘we are all connected’. New York, I Love You feels like a muddled product from the Hollywood machine, lacking the je ne sais quois easy spirit of its predicesor. Not only was it unnecessary, but it polarized the difference between the much better Paris, je t’aime and its American counterpart. Even the snip-it stories used to connect the characters and their ‘lives’ together are disasterious…the characters appearing in the narratives of another made me feel like I was choking on a giant cheeseball. The steady cam interstitinals used to brige each segment didn’t help its case. Not to say that all scenes paying homage to New York were not beautifully done, but the tribute felt contrived, uninspired and touristy-ly voyeuristic. Much like an episode of sex in the city, each 5 min ‘story’ includes travel video style footage of the New York skyline, city lights, and multicultural crowds. But it quickly looses steam, relying heavily on cliches and the star power of its recognizable cast.

So, where to start. The short narratives begin promising enough, with a funny segment with Bradley Cooper in the backseat of the iconic yellow cab. Not to say that the film was awful, but I will say that I stand behind its 41% rotten RT rating. I have blogged numerous times about the movie New York, I Love You and now that I’ve seen it…I kinda wish I didn’t.
