Amélie
Amélie (2001) - Rated 30 Nov 2008
The best movie I've seen in years. Touched my heart in a way only a few others did before. Audrey Tautou plays brilliant and counts with her charme to the best european actors. Amelie will left a smile upon your face long after you switched of your TV.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon
The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) - Rated 23 Nov 2009
Twilight seems to be the eighth world wonder! It's beyond my imagination how anyone could say that this portion bullshit is big cinema. It's the "Near Dark" Version for 12 year old Hannah Montana Kiddies on their next step to"being hip". F*** off Edward Cullen, and the rest of his little rascals. Furthermore Twilight got nothing to do with the awesome "vampire-cult" of other high class genre contributions. Just scorch...

City Lights
City Lights (1931) - Rated 12 Mar 2011
This was the most charming romance I've ever seen on screen. Chaplin is a phenomenon. I guess no artist can carry so much feelings with his mimic and body language than Mr. Chaplin. The box fight taken by the short "The Champion" is my personal fun highlight in this movie. No one should miss "City Lights" in his movie collection. A rare and "silent" gem!

The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover
The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover (1989) - Rated 02 Apr 2009
The Movie shows the conflict between two worlds. The world of money on one side & the world of art & culture on the other.Each side is represented by two groups.Greenaway works with many symbols, changing costumes, colors, light effects etc. The opulent costumes were created by Gaultier, the excellent Soundtrack came from Nyman ( who created the sound for "The Pianao" ) It's my most favorite Greenaway.Visually one of the greatest works i've ever seen.

Greenberg
Greenberg (2010) - Rated 07 Jul 2010
Love the movie, because I feel like Greenberg, the whole fuckin'day. Living in a world full of hypocrites and stereotypes make me lonely but happy, because I don't need that kind of people. Not the best Baumbach sript, but definetely worth to see! Good to see Stiller into a serious role.

Avatar (2009) - Rated 26 Dec 2009
Bombastic,stunning,absolutely beautiful, exciting,revolutionary, interesting, gripping and of course action packed. Two Thumbs up for Mr. Cameron! But at least it is to be hoped, that Hollywood use this new "way", to extend the possibilities for directors. Never forget, that a movie needs more than only effects. It might be a a two-edged sword...time willl show...

Seven Samurai
Seven Samurai (1954) - Rated 21 Dec 2009
Kurosawa invented the action cinema with "Seven Samurai" and created a brand new genre. A vast number of followers were the result. And even half a century later, this movie don't have to hide behind modern movies. This movie is magic. Story telling, acting, cinematography, sound. Just epic !!

Hard Eight
Hard Eight (1996) - Rated 12 Jul 2009
Hard Eight is a visually great movie. Anderson's first work offers a great cast up ahead Philip Baker Hall. Even the secondary charakters like Philip Seymour Hoffman's short tryst is brilliant too. It's not the plot that stands in the center...it's the whole schmear that creates a special atmosphere. Slow & patient..but never boring. Great

A Nightmare on Elm Street
A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) - Rated 12 Sep 2008
N.o.E.S. was Craven's big shot, and in my opinion his best work ever. Robert Englund reached cult status in the 80's, and rose to the top of nightmare creatures like Michael Myers, Jason Vorhees or Leatherface.
