Whoring out is the only way to be someone in life
-
Hipster cheats his wife thrice, while ignoring her autistic kid, gets away with it with passionate kisses.
-
Yet another formulaic sadistic gorefest. I almost sawed some logs while watching this.
-
I fell asleep thrice while watching this.
-
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
-
Cyclists falling over: The Movie.
-
The other Bee Movie, equally as hilarious. A classic Nic Cage romp.
-
Even man-child Fritz Haber deserves love.
-
The one where the franchise grows the beard. After dozens of formulaic carbon copies, they graduate to the big boys club.
-
A oddly mainstream Spike Lee joint, but still seeped in his particular style. Gripping from start to finish.
-
Hyper-sexualized snakes on a 747.
-
The core point is kinda taken away when you find out the little girl wore a fat suit during the film. That’s American cinema for you!
-
The beginning of the superhero-fication of Fast and Furious.
-
Ridley Scott’s Provence holiday. That mix between Provençal real estate ads, eulogising sociopaths and casual chauvinism bordering on assault.
-
Even mainstream Aronofsky is great. The classical themes of Christianity and Environmentalism are always present.
-
Man is the real monster, and moving from the big city to bumfuck reveals the seething problems lurking beneath the veneer of respectability.
-
More gore and guns, with nicer hairy werewolves. The plot thickens a bit, but since nearly all characters die (even the main ones, which come back again), everything is self-contained.
-
Ha, that ironic title. Sounds the opposite, every German is a fucking Nazi, even the Jews married SS.
-
A rough cut from a better film, in need of some lamination and abrasion.
-
The long shots never get old. Never.
-
This is the one with Audrey Tatou as the platonic love interest. Ron Howard’s brand of blandness and safe. To think I once though this was a great thriller, I was very young and naïve. Remember, this is like Bond for Dunning-Kruger sufferers.
-
Borderline experimental action film. A bunch of vignettes on teenage radical stuff, very juvenile, 90’s nu-metal, very fast cameras with fisheye lenses.
-
This story doesn’t need to be directly interpreted as the last stand of Europe against the Asiatic hordes, since Attila and Genghis Khan are well into the future. It can be bloody Asterix, some monarchist anarchists fight an invasion by an evil empire.
-
Those damn Buoston accents, I luove it. “Anointed Pederast” when referring to men of the cloth, they should have used that tagline on Spotlight (or at least a punk band name). I really want to rewatch Infernal Affairs now.
