the double life of veronique 9
Heat and Dust 6.5/10
Umberto D – 5/5
Even If You Walk And Walk/Still Walking/Aruitemo Aruitemo (2008): Die Kore-eda. 7/10. Very delicate and thoughtful and honest – but not a masterpiece along the lines of his NOBODY KNOWS.
Modern Romance 5/10
Albert Serra’s Honor de Cavalleria, for the second time. What a masterpiece: 9/10
2 ou 3 choses que je sais d’elle… can you watch two masterpieces in one evening?. Certainly so. 9/10
En la Ciudad de Sylvia… 8/10… and getting ready to watch Unas Fotos en la Ciudad de Sylvia.
Talk To Her- Stunning Achievement- 9/10
Twilight 10/10…..Just kidding.
rachel getting married: 3/5. This movie hit a little too close to home. My oldest brother was an addict, and I felt the horrible prongs of their narcissism and manipulation. Damn you Kitster.
On a lighter note; while the choice of steady cam brought a sense of kinship to the viewer and was really helpful in creating the chaos and cluster-fuck in Kim’s (Anne Hathaway) world, it was overused
manderlay 7.96788/10

Execellent unknown western.
Passage to Buddha (1993) by Sun-Woo Jang 
rocknrolla – 6.5/10
Not Guy Ritchie’s best work, but it stands up to previous titles and surpasses the garbage that is Revolver by far.
Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters 6/10
seems like I’m the only one who feels like this is a generic biopic dressed up as something more stylish. there’s nothing here that I haven’t seen before a dozen times.
Breathless – 8/10
The Steel Helmet — 9/10
Entre les murs 7/10
did it deserve the palm d’or? maybe. it was very, very real. a great achievement.
WESTWORLD (1973)
3/10 (for Yul Brynner)
I saw WESTWORLD when it was first released when I was about 10, and ever since my memory of it had me convinced it was a classic. Well, I just finished it again, and this film is just terrible. It has absolutely no tension or drama, and lots of bad 70’s futuristic/computer cliches. The plot holes are immense and the characters decisions as to how to defend themselves are ludicrous. Richard Benjamin is really stiff, I wish he’d been shot half-way through instead of James Brolin.
I see it’s gonna be re-made this year possible. A ton of room for improvement, except for the role Yul Brynner plays. He’s irreplaceable. He’s the reason why the film gets a 3 outta 10. And I can’t place the director of the computer center, Alan Oppenheimer? Where have I seen him before? Maybe M*A*S*H?

I have no idea how to rate this movie.
THE RAZOR’S EDGE (1984) 9/10
I always thought the Bill Murray film THE RAZOR’S EDGE, based on a W. Somerset Maugham story, was absolutely fantastic and hardly anyone would probably agree it’s a masterpiece. It seemed perfectly fitted to the state of mind I was in when it came out, and I’ve always thought the Murray’s laid-back portrayal of the character’s existentialist struggle was superb. He had completely nailed the exact role that everyone acclaimed him for in LOST IN TRANSLATION or BROKEN FLOWERS or LIFE AQUATIC 20 years previously in RAZOR’S EDGE, and hardly anyone noticed. Watching it again, I found it a little hard to get through the first 30 minutes, but once Larry left Illinois and landed in Paris, and then discovering Indian philosophy in a coal miner’s living room, I completely remembered why I loved this movie the first time around. Many of the scenes in India are just beautiful, and by the time we get back to Paris and Sophie, the movie has a completely changed tenor. Wonderful.
pandora’s box 9.2/10

“City Slickers” – 90
@MURSAL: I had the same reaction. Watch it again though, I’ve seen it 3 times already and it ranks among my favourites of all time.
I just saw “El Sol del Membrillo” by Victor Erice. What an intense, mystic and personal experience. What a movie, really. 9/10.
“Toy Story,” of all things… 8/10.
