Mini-Review: The joy of psychotic experience made it possible to relate with Heath Ledger's Joker in a way I never thought I'd relate to a comic book-based villain. When the movie finished I remembered that the actor I had just related with was dead and it was a strange feeling. I mean the Joker's psychotic quips had me sitting in the theater holding back hysterical laughter and tears and damn if it doesn't make sense that a suicided actor brought that to me. Blockbuster decade film Oscar for best maniac

Mini-Review: Probably the best movie I've seen based on a true story, or right behind Tombstone, which happens to be another western. Really nice example of a good western, recommended for anyone considering getting into the genre but not sure where to start. The ending is an awesome payoff, even if you know how the story ends.

Mini-Review: Jeff Costello is probably the most effective badass I've seen in any movie. Good thing he's not given any backstory at all, you're not even left wondering how or why he is. You just bask in his character as the epitome of awesome. Also, this lack of information perpetuates a great crime-thriller aura about the movie in general. Very good, well-paced movie, nice and subtle but still keeps the viewer interested consistently. I recommend this to anyone who enjoyed the themes in Taxi Driver.

Mini-Review: Pretty cool silent movie, but I enjoyed the re-make a lot more.
