Story lacked but the fight scenes are pretty good. It's like an Asian Rocky.

The Imposter

Overall a great documentary with a completely realistic ending which I loved albeit left wanting more. I'm glad they didn't take a side with either story and kept it unbiased. For anybody wanting to see this one please do yourself a favor and go in knowing as little as possible to insure yourself a better viewing experience.

8/10



Searching for Sugarman

Another great documentary. Every single one of you should watch this movie based purely on the fact that Rogriguez put out two wonderful albums that nobody heard except for South Africa. It's also a movie that has just a great feel good vibe pretty much all the way through.

8/10



Castaway on the Moon

Another unique and fun Korean film about a sad business man that tries to kill himself in the Han but ends up washing ashore on an island under an overpass. He's in the heart of a city but all alone. Funny and like I said unique plus it's on Netflix.

7.5/10



Let it Ride

Raise your hand if you've seen this movie? Not many of you eh? One of the most unappreciated comedies ever. Dreyfuss is hysterical.

8/10

The Passion of Joan of Arc

A ****ing masterpiece. Such emotion emitted from Maria Falconetti. It's a shame this is her only movie they ever did. What a movie though. Probably one of the most visceral performances ever. It's the best silent movie I've ever seen.

Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai

I loved the sh*t out of this movie. RZAs' soundtrack. The conversations between Ghost Dog and French Raymond. The mob boss spitting Flava Flav lyrics. The perfect screenplay. The cartoons that all the characters watch. I loved it. Definitely my favorite Jarmusch film and a wonderful pick me up after how disappointed I was with Dead Man. I'm going to buy this on dvd as soon as I can.

thank you i thought i was the only one perceptive enough to notice dead man is a ****e movie

kinda joking but not really

ghost dog is ill, surprised jarmusch wrote that screenplay. Managed to feel authentically inner city without being trite



this was pretty good. Stacked cast, however every single piece of dialogue is either directly about poker or is some analogy for poker. Some glaring plot holes too. Warm film the way only matt damon circa 90's can deliver

I also liked how all the gangsters were old men wearing Cosby sweaters.

That's such a great movie! Not my favorite by Jarmusch, but definitely in my top five.

I chose to watch this movie last night because I saw that it had some of my favorite actors in it. It looked like it had gotten good reviews. It exceeded my expectations. It was funny, and it was a very good story. Lots of cool music played throughout the movie as well. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, and that's a good thing.

The Transporter (US 2002), which has some of the maddest scenes ever. There's a fight scene where our hero (Jason Statham) spills a drum of oil and jumps about on bicycle pedals and another where he sucks the air from a dead bad guy's lungs, while under water. Statham is the most dangerous man alive and can kill twenty bad guys on a bus without breaking a sweat, and yet there is a fight scene among some storage containers, where the No. 1 bad guy pushes him over and just walks away. Statham's accent is always confusing to me. He is from Norfolk, but where he is supposed to be from in his films is a mystery. I suppose Transporter is not meant to be cinematic art and it is fast paced, or as the press prefer to say, 'high-octane'.

The Transporter movies are pretty sweet, and I love me some Jason Statham movies, but nothing can possibly live up to the Crank movies. Especially Crank 2. Best action movie ever made IMO.
