About Me
I wish this site had a better interface. Some of it is downright cringeworthy, check out the discussion forums... they're threadless! I'm embarrassed to link to this site from anywhere because of the stupid ads that overwhelm.

If I ask you to be a 'friend' it's because it seems like the most convenient way to bookmark your site ... which means I'm interested in following what you see and say, and would probably enjoy exchanging recommendations and thoughts about movies.

I've decided to trim my reviews here at flixster, keeping them short. If you'd like to read lengthier blurbage from me, visit my web site reviews:

I also love documentaries on Big Cats. Check out a clip from my video scrapbook.

En la Cama (In Bed) En la Cama (In Bed) Unrated 1.5 Stars
I felt the dialog and the director's capturing of it were awful. If others find resonance with the way this couple is filmed talking to one another they will like the film. As for the naked bodies and sex, there's better (9 songs, for example), but this couple is attractive and they have very attractive, real looking bodies, IMHO.
Sam hon (Shiver) Sam hon (Shiver) Unrated 3.0 Stars
This was riding a solid four stars based on the performances of Athena Chu and Francis Ng, and then boom! ... the ending. It's a pretty solid thriller with a slight goofy touch that goes just silly wrapping things up. It's not a horror film, more like Se7en without the grit.
Crazy Lips Crazy Lips Unrated 1.5 Stars
Parody in a foreign language is hard to get. I'm not positive that this is a parody, but I'm going with that interpretation for now. At first it seems like everyone and all the action is just plain rude, relentlessly so. Then it's funny, but in a pathetic way. I laughed out loud a few times, not sure if I was supposed to or not. All in all I can't say this was a pleasant experience of a film, but I'm not sure if I got it, or if I just don't like the form.
Låt den Rätte Komma In (Let the Right One in) Låt den Rätte Komma In (Let the Right One in) R 4.5 Stars
The weight of this film rests almost entirely on the shoulders of two twelve year old actors ... and they deliver the goods. There's nothing groundbreaking about the story but even in a story we've seen before it's a joy to spend it with these two characters, a testament to how delicately the film is directed. The cinematography is ice cold beautiful and adds to the isolation we feel from the teenage outcasts. This is a masterful production.
Heckler Heckler Unrated 2.5 Stars
Some funny observations that are made a little more funny by the editor's timing ... sort of like the way a drumroll accentuates a punch line. Jamie Kennedy plays a large role and takes the emphasis off hecklers and points it at Internet critics. I began with a little admiration at his guts in facing his critics head on but finished with boredom at his misdirected, unfair whining. In the end the film comes off like a giant bitch session. (And I am now a target of their wrath.)
Ex Drummer Ex Drummer Unrated 5.0 Stars
The dialog in this film is so quick-witted I could barely keep up with the subtitles. It's very funny, and very punk. It's dark and violent and nihilistic and truly bizarre. Each member of the band must have a handicap. One has a really bad lisp and lives on his ceiling (only in his own home), another has a debilitating mother complex and a stiff right arm, another is deaf and addicted to crack, and the drummer's handicap is that he can't play drums. The soundtrack is magnificent and the acting is all spot on. If you like punk, you gotta see this.

Shakespeare in Love 1. Shakespeare in Love R 5.0 Stars
I will call this my all-time favorite movie. I don't think I'll ever tire of watching it. Such a smartly written film.
Groundhog Day 2. Groundhog Day PG 5.0 Stars
Clergymen praised this film for it's theological value. This was the true beginning of Bill Murray's career as an actor.
Strawberry Shortcakes 3. Strawberry Shortcakes Unrated 5.0 Stars
An engaging movie that takes a bleak, but also beautifully hopeful look at the lives of four young women who live on the margins of life in contemporary Tokyo. Sex in the City it's not. The portraits of these women were, almost unnervingly, complete. Great great independent film. More: sitenoise at the movies: Strawberry Shortcakes
M 4. M Unrated 5.0 Stars
Absolutely beautiful! Brilliantly assembled simple story of a writer in search of his muse, told with rich colors and lots of black, dream logic, humor, inspired editing, and a soundtrack that matches it beat for beat. I wanted to applaud almost every scene. Arty without pretension and a poet's attention to detail.
Three Kings 5. Three Kings R 5.0 Stars
Mark Wahlberg should have won an oscar for his performance in this film. And the writer of the screenplay for giving him the part. And the cinematographer for the unique look of the film.
Noriko no shokutaku (Noriko's Dinner Table) 6. Noriko no shokutaku (Noriko's Dinner Table) Unrated 5.0 Stars
Poetic. Dreamy. Surreal. There's just something about the way Sion Sono puts together a film that appeals to me. The assemblage maybe more than the film.
