Taxi Driver (1976,  R)
Taxi Driver 5.0 Stars
'Loneliness has followed me my whole life, everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man.'

My All time favorite movie ever!! I love Paul Schrader's screenplay.. the wit dialogue, creative situation. It's fresh and modern and old school believe in the same time.. "I'm a god's lonely man.." that's one of my favorite quote. De niro was really great and so was Harvey Keitel. i watched it for over 20 times.. in everytime i love it more and more.

Bernard Hermann's Score was incredibly fit with the story and De Niro's Charactor!! The style scorsese did in this movie is the best directing work of him. Containing interesting subjects that's so original and breakthrough.. One of the Sweetest, Most Inspiring and charming films of all time#

Indifferent, loneliness in nowaday soceity is for us to bear.. someday we're gonna get organizized..

like "the tree in the cold winter night.." that's what i think about this movie..Cozy and Warm.. Kim Ki-Duk distincted his work from other.. fresh new feelin' far away from "Bad Guy" or "Spring,summer,fall, winter and spring" this might be my most favorite of Kim's Films

Camera Buff (1979,  Unrated)
Camera Buff 4.5 Stars
Great Piece of Art!! so naive, sincere and wonderful.. Symbolics.. Metaphorsis.. How could a director to tell the story no one ever told before, in the simply style you never wish to see.. Great story teller.. I love the friend's mother part.. The Dwarf part.. ohh!! every parts of the movie!!

One of the best movie about movie making, about telling story, peace & activism and.. right or wrong!! Everybody knows Blue, White and Red.. But no one ever talk about "Camera Buff".. It's maybe the first Movie of Kieslowski that made him well known in world of cinema before "Decalogue". Really sorry that this film was under-rated!!

This is sure be My personal favorite!!

PS. Anybody help!! can anybody send flixster the "Camera Buff" poster or something to be the cover for this great movie!!

Underground (1995) (1995,  Unrated)
Underground (1995) 5.0 Stars
"One of the Great Films of The Decade!!" my friend always talked to me about Emir Kustorica.. Now i know, He's a Movie Genius!! This is my first film of Kusturica.. It kills me for christsake!! I've never expected i'll find a masterpiece like this.. "Original, Clever, Beautiful, Crazy, Wonderful and Sharp like a knife!!" All the charactor were so deep, fuckin' charming and lord knows they're really beloved.. I fell in love with it since the first 15 minutes of the movie!!

From the opening to the end.. is full of intelligent scenes.. all the scenes were so interestin' and charming.. with mad & charming charactors and situation. This is one of the movies i dream to make.. if i were a film director!! I thought of Guiseppe Tornatore while i watched it.. by Let us go deep in life of a social.. Moral and norms of Them.. How they live their life.. It's perfectly charming!!

Epic!! Morality flys high!! Hospitality rides in the air!! Beautiful.. Beautiful.. I cried.. The charactors like Blacky, Marko, Natalia, Jovan.. and many many even Sony(A monkey) will be in my heart forever.. This could be one of the most charming movie with most Charming charactors in the world!!

The Story is perfect, clever and sharp.. filled with madness and insanity!! One of the best war satire films. The Black comedy of the century.. Classic like "Dr. Strangelove.." Kusturica is a god of film makers.. I'll continue with "Life is a Miracle" very very soon!! Love your work, Emir!!

So long, Yugoslavia...!!

On the Waterfront (1954,  Unrated)
On the Waterfront 5.0 Stars
"This ain't your night!! My night" This is my night.. my night for a great movie.. I can't help myself shaking and shivering. What a performance!! Marlon Brando was God on the waterfront.. his character was really deep and classic. I can say i've never seen such a performance like this in my whole life.. where was i?? where?? why i didn't pick this incredible movie up and washed some so-so trash out of my brain!! I'm the fan of Raging Bull.. and i can see connectin' between Robert De Niro in "Raging Bull" and Terry Mulloy in "On The Waterfront".. The way they acted the way they talk the way even they moved their mouths.. it's creative and epic acting!!

The Story is interestin'!! Moral test.. do the right thing or ignore it.. so up to date content in this material world! i don't care some of the people and critic said that.. On the waterfront was something Elia Kazan created it to be the excuse about political problems in that time.. but i really don't care!! Who care if i don't fuck my wife for years to create such piece of Art!! forget about it.. what i'm trying to say is don't ever connect this movie with some point that doesn't effect art creating!! It's nothing to do with that!!

The Scene in the car between Terry and Charley.. is breathtaking'.. classic dialogue.. super performance.. great score from Bernstein.. i can say this is one of the most powerful scenes and most powerful dialogues in my life.. "You don't understand! I could have had class! I could have been a contender. I could have been somebody..!!" Terry explored his anger and inner need in great way.. the way Marlon Brando talk is outstanding and unique! he acted with his eyes his mouth his voice.. God i love him!! This movie wouldn't be this great without him.. The Most powerful acting ever. and lot of great scenes.. like Father Barry Statement in the front of workers!! The scene Terry carried a gun to Johnny Friendly's Bar!! and the last confrontation at the endin' scene!!

Lord, it's Great to watch it.. superb experience of cinema!! All time favorite ....Salute Marlon Brando & Elia Kazan!!

Zelig 5.0 Stars
One of the most intelligent and interesting movie of Woody Allen.. strong sarcastic content mixed with Allen's funny emotion --> hurt soceity the most.. i believe that.. sarcastic comedy is more powerful to look down on and convince social fools.. "Zelig" surely could make us realize about ourselve and our surroundings!

Who's Camus, Anyway? (Kamyu nante shiranai) 5.0 Stars
No wonder why Japan is one of the greatest movie makers for almost a century!! I almost lost the word.. SUPERB**

"Simply Wonderful, Originally creative, Questionable, Psychological Tester, A Real Piece of Art!!" Mitsuo Yanagimachi is a great storytelling.. with brilliant Story.. the way he presented it.. The Cast is perfect!! all charactors are interestin'.. I could touch every single word they said or acted.. I can say That's a great way of directing.. How can you present a charactor in a mood!! And Yes i love Albert Camus' works, specially "L'Etranger" which amatuer movie makers in this movie used as a main story of their movie.. I picked it from the shelf in the indy DVD store cause of that!! But i never ever think i'll find an Unknown Masterpiece!!

Every parts of the movie contains Realistic atmosphere. So it's tense and real. Like a documentary. And the ending is so clever in extreme way! And it is a question for anyone to answer....

I can see there's none of my friend here watched it.. I insist this is the must see for Everyone who's eager for something new.. something interestin'.. something creative.. even something insane..

PS. Please anybody.. i can't upload picture to this great movie.. Could you give me a hand about that?? Thanks anyway

My first work of Kim Ki-Duk i watched.. Impressive, creative and Inspiring. I'm his fan after watched it..

How long for a man to understand life.. through good and bad.. Cold and warm.. Kim Ki-Duk understands it!! in every movies of him, we'll always learn something new about life. He showed us dark and bright sides beautifully than any one did.. I have a korean friend, he told me that in Korea Kim Ki-Duk isn't quite popular.. i don't understand that cause in my opinion He's one of the best asian directors who represent Asian thought and philosophy through the world.. I love his work and i can say he's my best director!! and his thoughts co-ordinate with mine!!

Salute!! My dear, Mr.Kim

Underated movie from Roman Polanski! it's not ghost, it's evil !! i love how Sven Nykvist created at the beginning of the movie that formed the dismal atmosphere i never feel before.. and also his high contrast, low-key lightin'. Roman was an actor himself and he did it great. Almost everybody prefer Rosemary's Baby.. but i love The Tenant ;)

Poetic kind of movie art.. I think of Leo Tolstoy or Dostoeyvsky during watchin' it. And i love Tolstoy and Dostoeyvsky :) Andrai Tarkovsky Stunned my heart with his powerful rebellious thought.

The Visual is so perfect!! I really love the atmosphere of the movie.. it's between Dream and Reality!! the camera work is perfect. one of the most beautiful cinematography i've ever seen..

I don't understand things in the movie but that's not a problem for lovin' it.. The Candle walk scene is really cool.. so religious.. faithful heart.. Breathe taking..

Thanks Mr. Tarkovsky.. I Salute you!!

Children of Men 4.5 Stars
Great piece among epic war of men!! I love it more than i can explain. What a Story. And what made it so special is How Alfonso Cuaron made it..

This is the best in years of cinema.. How could they create this masterpiece! I couldn't imagine of this such great movie in the world. Longest take of handheld camera shot i never dreamed of.. longer than any of us can imagine. I work in movie production and know how to create long take matters but not this long and not this great.. how can Lubezki shot from buildin' to the streets of war and rally then into another big fucking building that was attacking with guns and tanks.. smoke and extras in everywhere added by bullets effect all over the place.. I didn't ever blink while i watched!! Extreme Long take shots took me into the movie. Let me be the witness of all incident. Alfonso Cuaron took me into his world.. filled with dark green and shadow that is Full of sadness and beauty.

Being Hornest, I don't fuckin' care how you all think about this movie.. How much star you gave for it.. To me This is a real piece of art and ambition.. I love it! Even now..My heart is still beatin' like a drums!!

PS. I love the Maximize size of Picasso's work in the Dinning room.. and for all Pink Floyd fan in this scene we'll find Pig Balloon of Roger Waters out side the window.. over the factory!!

PS.2 Thanks Cuaron with ending credit music! in "Y tu mama tambien" you used the masterpiece of Zappa.. and in "Children of Men" you used the masterpiece of King Crimson.. love your taste#

The Horror i never forget.. 'til the earliest shot in the locker room.. full of stream with slow motion dolly shot!! The divided 2 part frame in Prom Massacre!! Slow motion well mixed with normal speed created the greatest intro for Classic Execution!! Super composition and lightin' in the house while Carrie argued with her mother!! I have so many good experiences from "Carrie".. I considered it one of the best horror movie in my opinion.
