Shorty’s Film Reviews

185 Films have been rated or reviewed by Shorty.

Wizard Mode (2016): Warm–hearted look at young man making sense of the world and pinball machines. "Apparently, not every moment in life will be fun . . ."
Rosewater (2014): A cheeky movie that wears its heart on its sleeve.
Island of Lost Souls (1933): Passably blood–curdling.
Fantastic Voyage (1966): Honey, I shrunk the Proteus! The science is shonky, the sexism is casual, and the dialogue is also worth a laugh or two. Fun special effects.
First Australians (TV Series) (2008): Documentary excellence.
Still Life (2013): A quiet film about a quiet man. A gem!; DVD $29.95
Circle, The (2000)
Leopard, The (Il Gattopardo) (1963): Melancholic and magnificent.; DVD ~~$20~~ $15, ~~$25~~ $18.75
My Little Chickadee (1940): Fields' bon mots have aged better than West's.
Crimson Gold (Talaye sorkh) (2003): A memorable opening scene looking out through the jewelry shop door.
