I Love You Phillip Morris (2009) - Rated 27 Sep 2015
This is a nice, fun film about a gay relationship between two convicts. So naturally, no-one went to see it. You know what people did go to see? 'I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry.' They saw the shit out of that film.

Rear Window (1954) - Rated 27 Sep 2015
God but this film stays just as good every time you watch it. Stuck in a wheelchair, James Stewart is forced to only act with facial expressions, which would have meant a muted, still performance from a lesser actor, but he still makes his character glow with feeling. Everything else has already been said about this movie.

Call Northside 777 (1948) - Rated 27 Sep 2015
Slick little mock-documentary crime flick that feels a little like James Stewart is doing a warm-up for Anatomy of A Murder, which unfortunately is better than this film in literally every way. The film stays intriguing while never hitting suspenseful, which means that this is a great Sunday afternoon with the grandparents film, unlike, say, Se7en

Dead End Drive-In (1986) - Rated 27 Sep 2015
Trash filmmaking, and like the best trash cinema, it's deeply satirical. Love it.

The Interview (1998) - Rated 27 Sep 2015
Great bit of cheapo aussie suspense. Does very little with its small budget, but the script and lead performance are cracking

Headhunters (2011) - Rated 18 Feb 2015
Wow, It's like an uncanny prediction of 'I Saw The Devil'. This film is an absolute barnstormer, if only because it fits so many seemingly incongruous moods into one consistent narrative. Like Guy Richie, Tarantino and Park Chan-Wook before him, Morten Tyldum manages to fit so much raw product into his film that it is a constant pleasure to watch, despite (or because) of its constantly shifting tone.

Face/Off (1997) - Rated 17 Feb 2015
Some films of the 1990s are so excessive, so louche that it's like they had so much money they didn't know what to do with it.

Inglourious Basterds (2009) - Rated 17 Feb 2015
Django Unchained makes Django look kinda like a bad toilet film in comparison. Inglorious Basterds makes you remember that The Dirty Dozen is a really good film that you should watch instead. Go watch The Dirty Dozen instead.

Django Unchained (2012) - Rated 17 Feb 2015
Fun fact: Django's character arc, from 'tragic victim' to 'Christoph Waltz's comic relief friend' to 'Christoph Waltz's pretty cool friend' to 'Actual Protagonist' is eerily reminiscent of black representation in Hollywood films, from extras, to goofy side characters, to interesting (but still non-protagonist) characters to actual protagonists. It's almost as if that's been done on purpose or something. You know, to make a point about black representation in movies. Or something.

The Dirty Dozen (1967) - Rated 17 Feb 2015
Are you kidding? Of course this film is great. Don't be ridiculous. John Cassavetes is hypnotic.
