Definitely one of the best films of last year. Lyrical, dark and naturally tense with great dialogue. Also...John Hawkes is a badass.

Like 'Into the Wild', 'Touching the Void' and 'Buried' all rolled into one. Pity about the sentimental choice of music at times, but altogether it was pretty good. You can never go wrong with James Franco, especially when the role calls for a bit of comedy as well as drama. Lesson learned: call your mother back when she leaves you a message.

Completely mad! I enjoyed it very much.

Delivers on every promise that it makes as a film and is spot on politically. A great cinema-going experience.

Thoroughly enjoyable neo-noir. The more Cage descends into drug-fueled insanity, the more he comes across as some kind of depraved Jimmy Stewart. Love it.

It's worth it alone for the moment when we think that Woody et al. are heading for certain doom. For so long, family movies have refused to give us any sense of real threat and I think that this film succeeds when it refuses to treat us like idiots that can't handle real themes like death and obsolescence. A great piece of work and a really great send off for the franchise... please don't make another one Pixar!

I really enjoyed this. The cover and the synopsis on the back of the DVD made me think it was going to be just another 40 Yr Old Virgin film but I was pleasantly surprised. Real heart and strong performances.

The Kreutzer Sonata...

In general a bloated and weak film but it's held up by the scenes shared by Christopher Plummer and Tom Waits. I found myself drifting between boredom and excitement depending on which actor was on screen...

Just saw the new digitally restored print on the big screen. I've seen this film dozens of times but it never loses it's power. Still a very intense experience. Happy 50th Psycho!

Wisconsin Death Trip!

It's been a long time since I've seen a film that let's the sound design do the talking. Bleak as hell though, and not sure I'm that into the last third of the film..

Overlooked, brilliant performance by Huston and damn depressing! Along with The Idiots, Timecode, Julien Donkey Boy and Festen, this is one of digital cinema's early experimental treats.

The best Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde! Let's get it up here.

A deeply touching film about love, music and madness.

Incredibly in depth and sensitive depiction of the artist's life. Also one of the most aesthetically beautiful films I have seen. Brilliant editing as well. Just a masterpiece.

Thrilled that Kathryn Bigelow is back making quality work! Although I tend to avoid many, this is one of the best war films I have seen in recent years...if not the past decade.

Great breakdown of the writer's life and times but perhaps not ambitious enough in it's structure. I agree with previous comment - a little too much reliance on footage from Gilliam's film when covering that period of his life. Altogether, I agree with some of the final points made by the film...we could have really done with a Hunter S. Thompson over the past few years... imagine Fear and Loathing on Wall Street!

I hadn't seen this for about ten years until a few days ago. I completely forgot how depressing this film is. Those who haven't seen the Coppola restoration DVDs yet definitely should. They're gorgeous.

Hell in the Pacific !?!?!?!

I loved this movie! It's Coen Brothers at their absolute finest. A modern Kafka nightmare that's without a doubt on equal par with Fargo and Barton Fink. Can't wait to see it again.

What about Manji!?!?!?!

Finally got around to seeing this the other day. I have to say, it really lives up to its reputation...if not more so. Romain Duris' performance, though individually brilliant, brings to mind the best of Alain Delon with a hint of early De Niro. The best thing about the film for me was it's ending. Although not really a twist, it definitely had me guessing until the end. It could have been really predictable but it's direction was just as natural and unexpected as it's lead character.
