Miasma: Filmography

Betrayed

It's a terrifying film, but I found it almost impossible to believe that Berenger's character could be fooled by Winger's taciturn, shifty-eyed undercover lover. No offense to the fine actors.

Men in Black

Shockingly palatable Hollywood fare.

The Rachel Papers

Charmed me in ways I did not expect. Could've been so much shittier!

Haywire

The final beat leaves the taste of an unarguable "3/5" in one's mouth. But I'm giving the film four.

Haywire

Favorite ever.

The Crying Game

Watched a couple Neil Jordan movies in a row and I really liked this one, so I feel a little guilty for only giving it three stars...

The Matrix

Let's start at the foundation: human batteries. The idea falls apart - FALLS APART - under the slightest scrutiny.

The Matrix

Technically speaking it's a functional formula piece, but in hindsight I could not be less interested in returning.

Bernie

Warm, charming, refreshing. Didn't end up really going anywhere, which was unfortunate. Black does fine work.

Pan's Labyrinth

This is one of those rare occasions where I wasn't totally sure how I felt until, to my surprise, the ending just nailed me.

Robert Bresson

I'm finding that hindsight is making me appreciate him more by the day.

You always were an adroit deceiver.

Interesting, yet I'm very tempted to bump it down to 3 stars. Muddled, sentimental and somewhat pretentious in its subject matter. That said - probably in my top 5 for 2011.

The Devil, Probably

Bresson's artifice either speaks to you or it doesn't.

Black or White

omg

Black or White

Boy, the whole movie exists for that shot, doesn't it?

Live Free or Die Hard

One of the more enjoyable Disney affairs - probably by virtue of coming from Swinging London.

Pleasantville

Talk about a pointless studio affair.

It would be refreshing if Aronofsky always worked with such a limited budget.

The Addams Family

Surprisingly charming. This may be the best Sonnenfeld can do.

I Heart Huckabees

It's cute, and occasionally funny, and it means well, and there is at least some measurable amount of talent at work that can be watched.

Frost/Nixon

I saw this after Nixon and Secret Honor and found it to be virtually unwatchable.

Another Year

Anybody else finds that Leigh's moralizing reminds them of... I daresay... Tolstoy?

Newsies

Newsies! This is one from youth, to be sure. Back when I could somehow actually tolerate musicals.

The Puppet Masters

I frankly think this movie is awesome. Sort of has inexplicably high production values.

The Puppet Masters

Paul Walker's role in this reminds of Keanu Reeves strenuously asserting, "I... am an FBI agent!"

The Fast and the Furious

It's an awful film but I kinda like it. Stephen Norrington likes to have fun.
