Little Deaths
This is a collection of three short films that touch on subjects of their stories rather vague bent on sex and death. I guess "little death" is a good title for the film, because the French use these words as a metaphor for orgasm. So the title is short in each collection. It starts with the shortest of the three films, titled "Living," which could fit into any anthology of horror. The plot is paper thin and revolves around a rich and twisted religious couple, the girl pulls the homeless for fun in the disease, but apparently messed with the wrong girl here. Frankly, it's not too short special ... At the beginning seemed dysfunctional couples and details of their elitist self-understanding interesting (could turn it to the end to serve as a kind of metaphor for class struggle), but it leads to nothing. It is interesting that the great visual and performance of the actress who plays the daughter homeless. They are burning on the bed unique in the rest of the film.The second is a short strange experiments in Nazi doctor, a drug from seeds from a laboratory rat with a bad person human kidney and a prostitute drug addicts trying a detox on the new drug and fed to regret gathered. It is visually rather throw on the rough side in some esoteric articles and tips on how to make all the characters involved and how the drug makes users to see, to connect touched the truth. His leadership of the central idea pretty sick and the images of the human lab rat, but eventually falls apart with a "twist" that you have no sense at all and ruined everything for me, because there are points not connected anywhere. The sexual element in this story feels solid in the act for their sake, so that the whole story feels forced and false, and certainly the weakest link in this three-part chain.
Simon Rumley is the third stop bits as a "bitch". This is a dark drama about sexual perversion, to play power and dependence. Dogs play a dominant role in the plot, the title some irony. The appearance of this part is on the rough side, plays with colors that are overfished, but works well in some key scenes. As "red, white and blue," but a character study about a revenge that no winner at all ends. Definitely the best of the last three with a large and significant influence that the benefits of the ideal of music. As a rule this fall anthology films, but despite some shortcomings, I can not recommend it for Rumley and for the great camera work and action of the first "home" party. Come see if you are in the twisted things that are where the drama meets horror.

Zookeeper
Griffin Keyes (Kevin James) sets up a plan to propose to the love of his life, Stephanie (Leslie Bibb), but she rejects him and claims that his career as a zookeeper is what is keeping her away, therefore breaking Griffin's heart.
Five years later, Griffin is shown to be the lead zookeeper at the Franklin Park Zoo who cares deeply for the zoo animals. That night, Griffin holds a party at the zoo for his brother Dave (Nat Faxon) who is getting married, but freaks out when he discovers that Stephanie was invited. Dave offers Griffin to come and work with him at the car dealership, explaining that it is the best way to win Stephanie. Griffin thinks that he should quit his job at the zoo and join his brother.
Later, the animals hold a meeting saying that they think Griffin is the best zookeeper at the zoo and don't want him to leave, so they decide to find some way to help him win Stephanie's heart. Jerome the bear (Jon Favreau) suggests that they teach Griffin their animal mating techniques, but Joe the lion (Sylvester Stallone) protests, reminding them that it's against the animal code to talk to humans. Donald the monkey (Adam Sandler) says that Stephanie will be at the zoo tomorrow and all the animals have to do is make Griffin look like a hero in front of her.
The next day, Donald unlocks the door to the lion enclosure and lets Joe out, who confronts Stephanie and Dave's fiancee Robin (Steffiana De La Cruz). Kate (Rosario Dawson), the zoo vet manages to get them away from Joe, but Griffin fails to jump into the lion enclosure, ruining the animals' plan. The night afterwards, the animals break their code of silence and tell Griffin that they will teach him what to do to win Stephanie. Griffin learns their different mating rituals, but ends up humiliating himself in front of the other zookeepers and the guests.
Griffin then has a talk with Bernie (Nick Nolte), a forlorn gorilla who was moved into a deep enclosure after allegedly attacking Shane (Donnie Wahlberg), another zookeeper. Bernie explains to Griffin that Shane abuses the animals and he fell when he was abusing Bernie. He lied and said that Bernie attacked him, causing Bernie to lose his trust in anyone.
Griffin discovers that Stephanie is dating her other ex-boyfriend, a bullying alpha-male named Gale (Joe Rogan). Janet (Cher), Joe's wife, tells Griffin that the best way to attract a female is to be seen with another female, so Griffin asks Kate to go on a date with him at Dave and Robin's wedding. Griffin then takes Bernie to T.G.I. Fridays and the two form a friendly bond.
Griffin and Kate go on their date and have a great time together. Griffin becomes brave enough to stand up to Gale and this grabs Stephanie's attention. After Kate tells Griffin she had a great time with him, Stephanie asks Griffin out to dinner. Griffin accepts and they both go to dinner and then go to a fashion show. Stephanie tells Griffin that his job at the zoo is holding him from the outside world, so Griffin decides to quit his job and accepts Dave's offer, which makes Kate upset. Bernie also becomes upset and tells Griffin that he thought he could trust somebody again, but was proved wrong when Griffin quits his job. Kate decides to leave the zoo and go work at a zoo in Africa.
Griffin becomes the best employee at the car dealership, but misses working at the zoo. Stephanie proposes to Griffin, but Griffin refuses and dumps her. He then goes back to the zoo and apologizes to Bernie, who accepts Griffin's friendship. The animals then tell Griffin that Kate is heading to the airport. With the help of Bernie, Griffin manages to catch up with Kate and confesses his love for her. Six months later, Griffin and Kate are back working at the zoo and Bernie is back living in his old enclosure where he gets a great view of the city.

Arthur
Boozy playboy Arthur Bach (Russell Brand) and his chauffeur, Bitterman (Luis Guzman), dress up in Batman and Robin suits for a formal dinner hosted by Arthur's mother, Vivienne (Geraldine James). The dinner is intended to announce Arthur as the new chairman of her corporation, Bach Worldwide. Upon driving to the dinner in a Batmobile, intoxicated and being chased by police, Arthur is arrested and released the next day.
Vivienne and her shrewd assistant Susan (Jennifer Garner) arrange a plan to have Susan marry Arthur to allow her to be in control of the company, leaving stable leadership. Arthur refuses, but is told that he will be completely cut off from the $950 million inheritance if he does not marry Susan. Arthur reluctantly agrees and asks Susan's father, Burt Johnson (Nick Nolte), for permission to marry his daughter. Burt agrees after putting Arthur to a table saw and warning him not to embarrass Susan. The next day, Arthur meets Naomi (Greta Gerwig), an illegal tour guide who Arthur takes an interest in to due to her free-spirited nature. He arranges his wedding while sneaking around on dates with Naomi. Arthur's nanny, Lillian Hobson (Helen Mirren) – who normally dislikes all of Arthur's choices in women – gets to know and like Naomi. Arthur learns that Naomi would like to have her children's book about the Statue of Liberty published. Arthur attempts to find employment and other options so that he would be able to keep seeing Naomi and not need the $950 million, but to no avail. Lillian takes Arthur to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, where he complains about it being depressing and making him want to drink, then the proclaims he is going to drink while accidentally bragging about his money, and turns to leave the meeting. Lillian stands up and takes the bullet for Arthur, giving his humiliating introduction in his place. Arthur, touched, states if only she would drink in his place as well, he would be set.
Arthur goes to see Naomi at her house and tells her the truth – that he is engaged to Susan. Naomi then tells him to leave. Back home, Arthur calls for Hobson, only for Bitterman to come and tell him that she is in bed with a headache. Later Hobson goes to Naomi and asks her to give Arthur another chance, but she again falls ill and is taken to a hospital. Naomi calls Arthur to tell him what has happened. He comes to the hospital, meets Naomi and is about to make up with her but Susan arrives and tells Naomi that Arthur bought the publishing company that was working on her book. Upset, Naomi leaves the hospital. Hobson comes home and Arthur decides to be her caregiver, and the two begin to get along better. But a few days later Hobson dies, and Arthur reverts back to alcoholism and partying to numb the pain of losing her, being dumped by Naomi and getting married to Susan.
At his wedding, Arthur gets drunk and finds Hobson's last letter to him which tells him to follow his heart. Arthur decides, during the vows, not to proceed with the marriage. Susan and her father become belligerent and begin punching him, which makes Vivienne realize that Susan is only after her company. She still wants her to be Arthur's wife, so she warns him that if he pursues Naomi, he will still be cut off. Arthur strips nearly naked to be rid of all dependency on his mother's money, and runs to Naomi's apartment, and tells her that he just lost his mum, referring to Hobson. She says she can't replace her. She is still upset with him and turns down his offer of getting back together.
Six months later, Arthur is now sober. He goes to a bookshop to buy Naomi's book and sees an advertisement saying that she is doing a book reading at a library. Arthur goes to the library, and this time she takes him back. Arthur gets back his inheritance because he manages the company's charity. The two leave the library and Bitterman drives them through the city in the Batmobile with the police following in pursuit.
