What can you say about Pulp Fiction that hasen't been said. I know "It's not as good as Rocky 3". There I said it, it's now official.

Heat 5.0 Stars
I love everything about this movie. Great characters, acting, story, action sequences and direction. I love how Mann's movies leave you exhausted but wanting more. Not many movie makers can do that.

Big Trouble in Little China 5.0 Stars
The 80's. When Kurt Russell was funny and John Carpenter could direct. The movie is just a blast from start to finish with so many unexpected turns along the way.

Once Upon a Time in the West (1969,  PG-13)
Once Upon a Time in the West 5.0 Stars
This movie from start to finish is breathtaking. Henry Fonda's baddie is so evil, he makes you want to step into the screen and kill him yourself.

Luc Besson is one of my favourite directors and this is one of his finest. With a great plot, action scenes, and powerful performances. You will want to watch it again and again.

With Nortan's innocence and Pitt's charisma, the movie blends itself into a great dark comedy.

The Color of Money (1986,  R)
The Color of Money 4.0 Stars
This is one of my favourite Scorsese movies. I love how it's directed through the scummy streets of America and that the actors all have a good chemistry and actually play themselves. Although I've seen the Hustler which was a good insight, I thought it was a bit dull.

Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back 5.0 Stars
My favourite from the trilogy.
It feels a lot more grown up and better constructed than the first. It also has one of the greatest endings in cinema.

Diva (1981,  R)
Diva 4.5 Stars
This was the first foreign language movie I seen. I remember as a 12 year old being captivated by the style and cinematography of the director. The story is tense and exciting and the characters are so rich, that they almost pop out of the screen. This is not to be missed.

Don't let the title fool you, this is an excellent movie. I love how Verhoeven mixes gruesome violence with satire in his movies. I was also surprised how fresh it still looked after 20 years.
