Fargo (1996, R)
best film from the coen brothers, william h macy stars as a car salesman up t his neck in det, who then hires steve bushimi and peter stormore to kidnapp his wife, so he will get the ransom money, but through a murder commited by bushimi, frances mcdormond as a pregnant cop, is brought into the fold, who then makes her way to macy, who car was in the possession of bushimi, like a lot of coen brother films, this has great wit, and dialogue, only the coens can do properly, as a thriller this not convincing, simply because, its one of the most funniest films around, black comedy, top of its game, i hated this when first watched it, but then realised who the coens are, and watched it as a black comedy, genius, everyone is great, macy as the guy in deep over his head, this where i discovered the guy, mcdormond as the cop, v funny, and of course bushimi, hes got this down really fine, a great setting, looks very cold, and an outcome that is typical coen, great dialgue toull be quoting all year, and in my personal top 5, please check this out |

Dr. Strangelove Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964, PG)
best film of the 60s, and stanley kubricks masterpiece, set during the cold war, a nuclear attack is put into operation, due to a mad militery general, played by sterlin hayden, and, a new device called the doomsday machine in russia, and its up to the goverment to stop one of the aircrafts reaching russia, and dropping nuclear bombs, peter sellers plays 3 roles here, dr strangelove him self, a raf officer, and the president of the u.s,a., and hes on fine form, also great performances from george c scott, and slimm pickings, this film is a very funny black comedy, and a very good anti war film, its about the end of the world, and shot in great black and white, with all the great kubrick trademarks |

This Is Spinal Tap (1984, R)
very funny indeed, and feelsc really real, these guys are hilarious, a great inprovised film, this could be 3 hours long, its comedy will never dull, some people mistake this for a documentary. i can see why. scene after scene of great dialogue, and situations, check out them getting lost on route to the stage, and stonehenge, amazing |

Groundhog Day (1993, PG)
bill murrey on top form here, reliving the same day over and over, i like the structure to this as there really isntone at least not a conventional one, just when you think its going all formula, due to the circumstances, your right at the start again, and then maybe the end, then back to the middle again, thats great, yes it all pans out in the end, but getting there is fun |
