*Anon*’s Film Reviews
103 Films have been rated or reviewed by *Anon*.
O Lucky Man (1973)
One of my favourite films. Deadpan and sardonic sense of humour. Marvellous sound track by Alan Price. A sprawling movie worth every second of attention. Malcolm McDowell shines as the bright young up–and–comer.
Full Metal Jacket (1987)
Intense character play in two parts follows a group of recruits through basic training and to the battlefield. Kubrick pushes the boat out again and succeeds––again. yes; war is hell, especially for those directly involved.- DVD
$20$15 
Apocalypse Now (1979)
- A huge movie on a huge canvass. Darkness in the heart of man. Only the largest of screens does this one justice. It\'s a landmark in the history of cinema, no doubt about it. Not for the squeamish.
Deer Hunter, The (1978)- Faultless and unforgettable all time classic of American cinema. Evokes an America which is gone for ever. A profound, disturbing and beautiful film.
Inside Job (2010)
\"The film which cost $20,000,000,000,000 to make\". Wall Street 2008––it looks like a crime scene but what really happened?. Ferguson tries to find out but not so many want to talk and no wonder:Naked sleaze which will take your breath away.
Source Code (2011)- An action thriller which explores some of the same issues as the sparse and understated Moon. Good intelligent script. Cinematography, acting, dramatic tension–– it\'s all spot on. One of the best SF films of recent years.
Double Indemnity (1944)- A ground breaking film in its time and still a top quality movie by any standards. Raymond Chandler\'s script still shines. Hard to believe that this film was made over 60 years ago
- DVD $19.95
No Country for Old Men (2007)- A near perfect adaptation of the Cormac McCarthy thriller for the screen. One of the best films of the last ten years.
Barry Lyndon (1975)- Beautiful, beautiful costume drama. Near perfect transliteration of Thackery\'s novel. Unforgettable. See it on the big screen if you ever get the chance.
- DVD
$29.95$22.45 
Big Picture, The (2010)- Good competent European character play. Lots of local colour,plenty of atmosphere and plenty of good acting. The plot a little unlikely, nobody sheds one identity and takes up another so easily in these times.
