Adam Cook: Filmography

Moonrise Kingdom

"Wes Anderson’s latest film is a wonderful adult-themed children’s fantasy worthy of François Truffaut." Check out my review @ Cinémezzo: http://cinemezzo.com/2012/05/29/youth-in-revolt-wes-andersons-moonrise-kingdom/

The Avengers

A viewing of El Dorado reinforced my feelings that The Avengers has a Hawksian tone to it. A group of people becoming a team to unite against some threat, with lighthearted exchanges and internal fights along the way. Never self serious, but touching when the final stand comes along, which isn't so much about the story, but the notion of fighting together.

The Avengers

Joss Whedon’s mega blockbuster, The Avengers, is an all-too-rare Hollywood entertainment—supremely fun, witty and intelligent, it could rightly be called the best superhero film yet made. Review @ http://tinyurl.com/6qqkafv

The Avengers

Better than I expected! A sophisticated deconstruction of the horror genre that makes Haneke just look grumpy. High quality Whedon.

    25 '5's and counting!

The unusual shot choices and Neveldine/Taylor's sense of humour help make this an occasionally fun, always strange, time at the movies, but compared to the Crank films and Gamer this feels like a neutered version of their cinema.

Eager to reevaluate this one when the Scorsese cut sees the light of day...

Weekend

Watching Godard's apocalyptic masterpiece in the midst of the Occupy movement is a poignant experience. Weekend's portrayal of the savagery of consumerism, and its indictment of bourgeois ignorance, is intensely relevant. Ferocious, witty, and altogether powerful, it is one of the highest accomplishments of cinema.

    It's one of mine. It's still pure Cronenberg, but the characters are more human than usual and as a result it becomes a much more relatable film. Probably my third favorite of his.
