Review of Gerry (2002)

By Rory P (254) on 09 Aug 2009

Savides' cinematography is the only thing going for this hypnotic, yet ultimately disappointing film…

Review of Satantango (1994)

By Rory P (254) on 28 Jun 2009

Not a lot can be said about this film that hasn't already been said. except perhaps that it is the greatest film of the 90s…

By Rory P (254) on 25 Jun 2009

This Tarkovsky actually dragged for me (I'm usually so engaged in analyzing/contemplating them that the time flies)…

By Rory P (254) on 09 Jun 2009

Disappointing, but well acted (Lou Taylor Pucci in particular) and it has a nice message…

Review of Mystery Team (2009)

By Rory P (254) on 27 May 2009

Ugh, this was terrible. Stupid, juvenile, boring, and overall unfunny. I laughed a few times, sure, but man oh man this is dumb…

Review of Le Samouraï (1967)

By Rory P (254) on 26 Apr 2009

The definition of Minimalism. My first intro to Delon (who has since become one of my favorite actors). I cannot find any flaw in this movie…

Review of The Steamroller and the Violin (1961)

By Rory P (254) on 26 Apr 2009

Charming little short. Tarkovsky's best student film that I've seen (There Will Be No Leave Today is unavailable)…

Review of Rope (1948)

By Rory P (254) on 26 Apr 2009

Swoon at only 10 takes. This is my favorite Hitchcock. I can actually stand James Stewart in this…

Andrei Tarkovsky... This connection and love could never been fully expressed in words…

On the creepy side, but really an interesting movie about the effects of a crazy scientist father on his son…

Review of Arachnophobia (1990)

By Rory P (254) on 04 Apr 2009

Nicely judged. Just the right amount of scares, excitement and gross stuff for kids to enjoy. Jeff Daniels makes for a great everyman…

Review of Intermission (2003)

By Rory P (254) on 30 Mar 2009

One of the better films to come out of the 'Celtic Tiger' period, but, yunno, its still only alright. Its never boring anyway…

Review of In the Name of the Father (1993)

By Rory P (254) on 24 Mar 2009

While some could argue that it makes the odd concession in its representation of the troubles for a foreign audience, no one can deny that…

Review of Simon of the Desert (1965)

By Rory P (254) on 15 Mar 2009

This is bunuel in his comfort zone; making witty and not so subtle barbs against the catholic church and hypocrisy…

Review of Rejected (2000)

By Rory P (254) on 10 Mar 2009

Towing a nice line in cynical humour, this short film is to be appreciated for its digs at consumerism, its absurdist one liners, and not much…

Review of The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976)

By Rory P (254) on 01 Mar 2009

A unique experience. The languid flow of the original version (cut in 1976) is superior to the re-edit…
