Bio: Most of my ratings were imported from IMDB, resulting in a lot of flat ratings such as 60, 70, 80 etc, which in turn explains my dodgy and somewhat inaccurate percentiles

"James Stewart is as charming as ever in this warm and funny drama. The characters are very well written, the jokes are funny and I love the setting. The way the shop and its employees are crafted really makes you feel like you work there and are part of the 'Matuschek' family. I love the way the snow looks in this, the way it falls in front of the camera is glorious. This film is like a warm blanket you wrap around yourself in the winter."

"I would like a whole film about Colin Farrell and 'The Toddlers'."

"As ridiculous and over the top this is, I actually quite like it. I thought that the overexposed lighting and cinematography was nice, the concept surprisingly gripping and the Plane Crash and Train Derailing sequences were absolutely horrifying. Shame about the weak ending and almost shoehorned in religious crap. But, I on the whole, quite enjoyable."

"Still an enjoyable and wonderfully interesting documentary, but not one of my favourites from Herzog. As much as I love his tangents, the ones in this just go on a bit too long and leaves this film feeling messy and unfocused. I also don't think Oppenheimer is enough of a personality to "lead" a documentary. This film contains some of the most striking images I have ever seen put to screen and those last 25 minutes are absolutely crazy (I now worship John Frum)"

"Brilliant set design and amazing music. Introduces some very neat philosophical and sociological themes and ideas: Nature vs Nurture, Natives vs Settlers, the Subconscious and Unconscious, but unfortunately these ideas are then explained to us as if we cannot be trusted to think about them ourselves. The acting is also quite wooden and the pacing is sluggish but, this is actually quite decent, has some great music and set pieces, and even though they are explained, the ideas and themes are neat."
