Lady Snowblood 1Lady Snowblood 1 (Shurayukihime) (1973)Aro Favourite
4 stars (Very Good) Huge influence on Tarantino, this revenge story is vivid, violent, and well scripted. How fitting that Tarantino has in turn introduced a whole new generation of audience to this classic.
Shogun AssassinShogun Assassin (1981)Recommended
4 stars (Very Good) Classic revenge story with ridiculous samurai sequences of the Lone Wolf and his infant cub battling supreme ninjas and warriors of death, gallons of blood split and limbs removed. Tarantino fans rejoice.
Children of Dune (TV Series)Children of Dune (TV Series) (2003)
3 stars (Good Enough) With updated special effects, the Dune universe starts to come alive. Just a pity that the plot and script fail to really convey the world that the Herbert novels do.
Dune (TV Series)Dune (TV Series) (2000)
3 stars (Good Enough) Not at all bad TV version of Herbert's Dune universe, this is well worth a watch for sci–fi fans, even if it is still not as good as the source material.
DuneDune (1984)
3 stars (Good Enough) Ambitious box–office failure filled with controversy (Lynch even wanted his name removed from credits for one of the proposed editions), there is still some vivid imagery here which will be enjoyed by Lynch or Herbert fans.
Man Bites DogMan Bites Dog (1992)
2 stars (Good Try) As dark as it gets, there is very little to laugh at here, with Remy and his filmcrew following a psychopathic and egotistical serial killer from scene to scene as he murders families, dogs, and even a baby. As controversial as it gets.
MonsterMonster (2003)Aro Favourite
5 stars (Exceptional) You will hardly believe that this is Charlize Theron. A stunning performance in a film that will leave you feeling sad, speechless, and sick to your stomach.
Fahrenheit 9/11Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004)Aro Favourite
4 stars (Very Good) A little too self–serving (at times blatantly one–sided), this is intense and provocative film–making, but can hardly be called impartial documenting. Still a great story (or chapter to the 9/11 tragedy), very well told by ever–ambitious Moore.
Poster (VG) $12.95
Bowling For ColumbineBowling For Columbine (2002)Aro Favourite
5 stars (Exceptional) Michael Moore hits full stride in this insightful and though–provoking documentary that takes one of the deepest looks yet into the Columbine killings and America's gun–toting (sub?)culture. A must–see doco for the 21st century.
DVD $20 $15
PowderPowder (1995)Recommended
3 stars (Good Enough) Very odd fantasy film with a central character as intriguing and strange (yet well–meaning) as Edward Scissorhands, Powder tells of a young albino boy feared and ridiculed by almost an entire rural American town.
