Mini-Review: For a Tarantino flick, unexpectedly slow. The multiple storylines weren't weaved together nearly as tightly as in "Pulp Fiction."
Mini-Review: Noteworthy directorial debut and intelligent, side-splitting satire of radical Islamic terrorism, featuring Mujahideen so dim-witted they undermine their own plots.
Mini-Review: I didn't get it.
Mini-Review: Totally banal love story, but I was most definitely 10 years too old and the wrong gender to be the target audience for this film. Why was Yutaka Yamasaki asked to do the cinematography? It's not at all his kind of movie, nor does it actually give him the chance to really do his thing. Well, at least Yui Aragaki was cute.
Mini-Review: Films like this are the reason cinema exists. Enigmatic and compelling, "The Bow" ebbs and flows with the some of the trickster spirit of "3-Iron" and philosophical underpinnings of "Spring Summer Fall Winter and Spring". Kim Ki-duk tells a story only he could tell, accompanied by Jang Seon-back's stunning cinematography and some really exquisite original music. This is seriously a must-see, in the same league as "In the Mood for Love" and the aforementioned films.
