Review of In Memory of My Father (2005)

By Riley H (411) on 25 Feb 2009

The self-awareness is nice, but the self-regarding navel-gazing is no longer a new enough motif to be endearing for its own sake…

Review of The Spy Who Came In from the Cold (1965)

By Riley H (411) on 08 Feb 2009

There are moments when the authenticity wears off a little (the opening scene for one) but most of the time this is a good antidote to bond…

Review of Intacto (2001)

By Riley H (411) on 07 Feb 2009

Yet another of those conceptual thriller that Spain seems to do so well.. I like it…

Review of Fata Morgana (1972)

By Riley H (411) on 01 Feb 2009

It's a bit like Koyaanisqatsi or Baraka, but far more ascetic, and personal. Surrealistic experiment which requires an open mind…

Review of Little Caesar (1931)

By Riley H (411) on 24 Jan 2009

This sets up a ton of gangster cliches and for that it's important. But it's not a great movie…

Review of Lights in the Dusk (2006)

By Riley H (411) on 24 Jan 2009

I guess this is the story of what happens to one of those poor saps who is merely a pawn in a heist…

Review of Lipstick (1976)

By Riley H (411) on 10 Jan 2009

It means well, but this is really just a b-movie posing as social comment…

Review of Art School Confidential (2006)

By Riley H (411) on 28 Dec 2008

Funny in parts but more off weird. Many of the funniest bits are actually in the deleted scenes…

Review of Eyes Without a Face (1960)

By Riley H (411) on 13 Dec 2008

Really interesting and offbeat. It's not scary at all, more disturbing (for its day)…

Review of Lemming (2005)

By Riley H (411) on 12 Dec 2008

There are a number of great moments, like the reversal of the bad-neighbour scene, or when the protagonist gets his toy back, but they don't…

Review of Dodsworth (1936)

By Riley H (411) on 12 Dec 2008

There are a couple great lines. Otherwise I was bored. But it was well made and I can't really fault it for being what it is…

Review of Fanny and Alexander (1982)

By Riley H (411) on 07 Dec 2008

See the tv version rather than the theatrical version…

Review of Lady Vengeance (2005)

By Riley H (411) on 29 Oct 2008

Easier storyline to follow than that of Oldboy. Solid revenge flick with an interesting but overly long ending. Recommended…

Review of The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976)

By Riley H (411) on 24 Oct 2008

Wow. There are some incredibly tense moments. Then there are long stretches of the worst strip club act I've ever seen…

Review of The Body Snatcher (1945)

By Riley H (411) on 16 Oct 2008

What's with the accents? What's with the cheap sets and lighting tricks? And then only some of the time, as other times the sets are good…

Review of The Last of Sheila (1973)

By Riley H (411) on 12 Oct 2008

Great whodunit mindfuck. Just kinky enough in places to remind you that this was made in the 70s, when the could get away with that in a PG flick…

Review of I Wake Up Screaming (1941)

By Riley H (411) on 09 Oct 2008

The title is the most interesting part. Everything about this movie feels unoriginal…
