Mini-Review: When I popped this into the DVD-player, I didnt' know what to expect as it's a movie about the japanese army/airforce made by japanese. Well, get ready for a long ride, the movie is more than 2 hours, but I found it worth it. It's intriguing to get an insight of the japanese culture at that time. Whether you agree or disagree with what is shown is up to yourself. At times the movie progesses very slow, but there's always a 'twist' at the corner. Not a brilliant flic, but I found it fascinating.
Mini-Review: "...written, directed and produced by M.Shyamalan", ie crap, crap and crap. At last Shyamalan has to write his own script instead of stealing/using others and he makes a lousy movie. After the village his 'deus ex machina' trick is worn out and it finally shows. Shyamalan, contrary to what u think, u r NOT a good director.
Mini-Review: Great non-stop action movie set in the mayan-time. The bloody violence fits the story perfectly. Also a good movie to watch with r wife or gf. They'll love the storyline, u'll love the action ;)
Mini-Review: Interesting story of boys growing up in the slumps of Rio, one becoming a big gangster and the other trying to stay away from it. Also interesting extra's on the DVD about the drug-war between the police and the gangsters.
Mini-Review: A classic set films, a must-see if you're interested in the wheelings and dealings of drug dealers and their suppliers.
Mini-Review: Steve Wiebe is the true King of Kong and Billy Mitchell is a hardcore douchebag. What an a**. If you played any of the 80's video-games, this is a must-see. Amazing documentary.
Mini-Review: Impressive. Breathtaking scenery, heart gripping story. I was deeply impressed. A little juwel from chinese cinema.
Mini-Review: Holy crap, just rewatched it (aug 2009) and this movie is still great. It's already 30 (!) years old, but still has the looks and feel as if it's made this year. If you like war, choppers and crazyness, this film is made for you.
Mini-Review: Just realised that Chan-wook Park is the Korean version of Herzog. Park has got the same eye of detail for capturing beauty and the dramatic decisions people have to take. Although Herzog generally goes for the positive aspect of his subject matter, Park shows the complete opposite. But both have the same mesmerizing power to transform their ideas to the big screen. I guess they are the Yin en Yang of dramatic cinema. Before I forget; a trivia question: anybody notice the jacket with O's eleven?
