In BG Cinemas from Jan 7

Туристът / The Tourist - If it hasn't been released in 2011, The Tourist would have been the best candidate for the worst movie of 2010. Not that there weren't others "worthy" for that honour titles, but having in mind the film unites an European director with an excellent debut, not only two of the biggest world movie stars but the biggest ones - Jolie and Depp, a good premise and a beautiful city, the fact that it is such a disappointment could not be more bitter. So what is actually wrong? First of all it's the stupid story, which can be swallowed if it wasn't for the lack of any chemistry between the two giants in the main roles. Yes, Jolie is marvellous to behold as she moves smoothly across Venice and Europe, but one could not help but wonder what is the problem with Depp and his character. On the plus side, the movie is beautifully shot and Jolie is marvellous to behold. Oh, wait a minute, I've already said that, but yes, this could be the only excuse to watch The Tourist. But you haven't seen the director's debut feature The Lives Of Others, one of the best European and especially German movies in the last years, this is the perfect moment to do so...(Alexandra)

Баария/Baaria - I haven't got the opportunity to watch the latest film of director Giuseppe Tornatore but it is so rare to see an European movie on our screens (despite the extremely limited distribution), so I'll catch it as soon as I can. My advice to go and seek it...(A+)

MISSED OPPORTUNITY - Love and Other Drugs 

This was the movie originally slotted by Alexandra and Fox for release on this date, but whose Bulgarian cinema distribution was cancelled. I'm more than certain the film is miles better than The Tourist, but this is the cinema reality in the country. So what can we do now? Try Zamunda or something else...
