Gunner Palace
Avoids political views and is instead a tribute to the John and Jane Smiths of the American military risking their lives for an ideal rather than a clear goal.
Solitary Fracture
Solitary Fracture is the vision of a single person brought to life with justifiable confidence and more style than most anything found on the big screen today and even reaching back into the annuls of film history.
Millions
After Boyle establishes Damian, his family and his quirky new community, Millions really starts to lag. The imagination gives way to simple subplots.
Downfall
While he doesn’t necessarily sympathize with Hitler and his cronies, Oliver Hirschbiegel does make the fuehrer seem almost human with Downfall.
Starkweather
Starkweather is the kind of mean-spirited film that uses violence as a way of selling itself and shocking its audience.
Shake Hands with the Devil: The Journey of Roméo Dallaire
More than finger pointing and a recap of events. By delving into Dallaire’s psyche, it becomes an emotional and poignant journey.
Paranoia 1.0
While the story is very original combining the techno-edge of The Matrix with Orson Welles’ The Trial, it’s the mood and atmosphere where it really shines.
Incident at Loch Ness
A truly original work, and a very cheeky one at that filled with end-to-end laughter. It plays off Herzog’s own legend as a behind-the-camera wild card.
Bride & Prejudice
A purposely corny but thoroughly entertaining piece of melting pot cinema.
