the imaginarium of dr. parnassus

Rating:★★★★

"A film from Heath Ledger & friends"
as I quoted from the movie. a best way to make a tribute to the talented Mr Ledger. and I do shiver as I saw him for the first time hanging by a rope under the bridge.

many may say that this movie has less imagination than the title. but for me, what can be more enjoying than watching 4 of my favorite actors all in one movie? Mr. Ledger, Mr. Law, Mr. Depp and the everlasting legend, Mr. Tom Waits.

the imagination starts thousands of years ago, when Dr. Parnassus had a bet with the devil, or Mr. Nick. when Parny-a nickname for Dr. Parnassus from Mr. Nick-wins, Mr. Nick grant him an immortality. which turns out to be a curse than a gift.

another bet was held, and it involves Parny's daughter, Valentina or Scrumpy. she'll be Mr. Nick's at the age of 16 if Parny failed to collect 5 souls just before the birthday.

greed. arrogant. selfishness. all the basic human nature seem to thrown at us and remind us that choices are exist. either the Parnassus way or the devil's way, it's all up to us...

  3. i love this movie.
    people say it's not good enough, but for me it's so enjoyable.

    what could be more enjoyable than having your colorful, cute, sweet animated imagination visualized there in front of your bare eyes behind The Mirror?

    And knowing that Heath Ledger actually dreams of being Jude Law is more than just enjoyable; it's funny and adorable at the same time. Hihihihi.. :P
