Prometheus (2012) - Rated 21 Nov 2012
"Some missteps (the "thinning out the crew" sequences are more than a little perfunctory) but still the maddest, most ambitious sci-fi I've seen in years. The trick is not minding that it hurts."
Argo (2012) - Rated 02 Jan 2013
"Basically it's an Aaron Sorkin zombie movie (the zombies are Persians because of course)."
The Third Man (1949) - Rated 21 Nov 2012
"A wake up call for anyone who ever thought they were the hero."
A Moment of Innocence (1996) - Rated 24 Dec 2012
"A sweet, lyrical, and surprisingly funny film, with an absolutely perfect final shot. In other words, it's Iranian New Wave."
Lone Star (1996) - Rated 15 Dec 2012
"Sort of like an Atom Egoyan film of the Ollllllllllld West."
Mulholland Drive (2001) - Rated 26 Nov 2012
"Some effective moments, but the actual resolution (everything really sucks it was all a dreeeeeeeam!!!) is pretty much an internet commenter's idea of what makes something deep and edgy."
Close-Up (1990) - Rated 10 Dec 2012
"I love that the Iranian "Citizen Kane" isn't about a great man of industry, but a poor, slightly nutty cinephile, with dreams that are at once modest and deeply profound. The final scene flawlessly captures the appeal of the movies, at once totally fake and totally true."
Forrest Gump (1994) - Rated 21 Nov 2012
"*wipes muddy face with t-shirt, pulls it away to to reveal the words FUCK THIS MOVIE*"
Marwencol (2010) - Rated 21 Nov 2012
"Seeing someone's inside on the outside like this is why I keep watching."
