had a great look, obviously, color and it's theme were well payed attention to, but the main character had no qualities of which i could invest in, nor the man who hung around her (essentially waiting to get laid by this crazy broad). really not much at all to say about it.

a documentary to serve as a reminder that america has not changed in the ways it depicts the black community, and how it continues to propagate how we and others should view blacks.

god damn that jip of an ending, that was not at all the conclusion that this kind of both profoundly and subtly moving film should have had.

Watching this was akin to how I felt reading 'Feminism is for Everybody"; digesting information compacted to a length that anyone could adhere to. Seeing this film and knowing the impression of America from the eyes of persons very far outside of Americanization is a very important learning experience.

well he really got his money's worth when he saw his psychiatrist.

can someone please explain to me why i I am supposed to find the opening credits to this movie an essential piece of this fincher's rendition of this film? Why are all of the men who are supposed to hate women the kind of "on second thought, maybe i am being a bastard" men in this film, as opposed to the selfish mongrels they really are? is this just another reminder of america's tolerance for violent against women?

When is this coming to Portland????

I really hate gaspar noé as a person, but I have to admit the film wasn't bad. It was like a snuff film with fill shots added in. I appreciate the camera work of course, and it being an extension of the characters and/or their situations. I just really hate gaspar noé as a person. Also a movie to remind you/force you to believe that men and the world are terrible. I'd rather watch a movie that breaks that stereotype.

(4.5) blew me away, can't get into nay more detail than that at the moment.

(3.5) this was amazing. everything you could ask for out of a 70s era japanese film. "Half-breed" african-japanese outcasts, all girl gang of thieves and miscriants, absurd 70s soundtrack and stylizing.. I can go on.

Ania Bukstein, mm mm mmm

whoa man. monumental.

3.5 really, but a very different take on life eternal. this definitely isn't the standard "vampire" movie.

3.5 really

like an art history major's wet dream realized by a man [W. Allen] going back to true, enjoyable form.

hmmm....

obviously a very touching film, but I felt the ending was very abrupt, and that the music played at the beginning and end of the film were completely inappropriate. Having said that, you know it's going to be a tear-jerker and blood stirrer from the very beginning, and the young boy, Jose, is destined to find some sort of success despite all of the sadness and degradation in the world around him.

I just like seeing Basquiat walk the earth. point blank.

dying inside having a film to remind me that true creativity is dying.

fan-fuckin-tastic

why isn't No Way Out (1950) on here ??

need this in my life

This is the one film I can watch and consistently break down in tears each time at the same exact time. I saw this for the first time well before I was aware of my sexual orientation and where I stood as someone concerned about equality (I think I was seriously 12 or 13) and I just felt that my life had been torn a part. watched it 3 years later, shattered again. Incredible performances and heartbreaking story.

4.5 stars, crooklyn is the greatest-how often do you have an accurate account of a black family that doesn't have a black man dressed as an overweight black woman? .. yeah. There is not one african american family that couldn't relate to moments (if not every minute) of this film.

one of the best animated films of all time. and in general, one of the more interesting narratives and personal journey's exposed through this medium. This is one of those films that will change the mind of the cinephelic snob who looks down on animated films as a legitimate player in the world of great cinema.

The color palette here was great, and I really dug that the style for that time was not in anyway overdone. It was a very simple film about the remnants of the past, and the ghosts that crowd the minds and the hearts of people who were involved in the black panther party. This is not meant to be seen as a biopic or any one individual, but as a reminder of the times and the lives led by people post-afro-american era.

I'm just a fan of him as a speaker and a human being.
