Review of Waiting... (2005)

By Frances H (1,591) on 01 Mar 2015

Waiting--that's what I was doing. Then I got tired of waiting for it to be in any way funny or amusing…

Review of The Fifth Estate (2013)

By Frances H (1,591) on 26 Feb 2015

Not really what I would call a thriller--more of a biopic, but I wonder if it was slightly (or more than slightly) slanted…

Review of Scar Tissue (2013)

By Frances H (1,591) on 15 Feb 2015

Despite the always catchy (for its target) gruesome bits and a somehow original approach when presenting its protagonists, Scar Tissue proves…

Review of True Bloodthirst (2012)

By Frances H (1,591) on 13 Feb 2015

Not great, but better than expected. This movie had the makings of a B-grade (at best) vampire movie: Syfy channel, no-name actors…

Review of Cold in July (2014)

By Frances H (1,591) on 11 Feb 2015

Super violent, but well acted and a very different plot. Don Johnson is surprisingly good and it's a very different role for Sam Shepard…

Review of National Velvet (1945)

By Frances H (1,591) on 09 Feb 2015

I wonder why they no longer make such movies. This story had everything, humour, cast, dialogues, emotions, and above all simplicity…

Review of Old Gringo (1989)

By Frances H (1,591) on 09 Feb 2015

Review of Pathology (2008)

By Frances H (1,591) on 04 Feb 2015

Really sick, every patient's worst nightmare--twisted doctor killing patients instead of curing them, and for a game, no less…

Review of Take Shelter (2011)

Maybe highly rated and well-acted, but so depressing I couldn't finish it…

Review of A.C.O.D. (2013)

By Frances H (1,591) on 30 Jan 2015

Great study of the modern American family dynamic, done with a sympathetic and yet slightly satiric tone. Great cast…

Review of The Dead (2010)

By Frances H (1,591) on 29 Jan 2015

A very different take on the zombie genre set in Africa, with gorgeous shots of that country, and full of very hairy moments of fright and…
