Tom H’s Film Reviews
866 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tom H.
City of Violence, The (2006)
Entertaining actioner with some cool fight scenes, ‘A City of Violence’ cuts frantically between gritty and cartoonish, although comes off just a little too kitsch at times.
No Mercy For The Rude (2006)
Another 'Park' is on the scene, with his take on the gritty and darkly–humorous Korean gangster genre. A sweet, violent, and funny incursion made plausible by the brilliant lead actor.- DVD
$29.95$19.95 
Batman: Gotham Knight (2008)- Very similar to the Animatrix, this is a collection of six very different (in visuals and substance) animated films involving the Dark Knight, adding to the already vast Batman universe.
Let The Right One In (2008)
The first vampire flick in years to truly strike a chord, 'Let the Right One In' is compelling, suspenseful, and so realistic and gripping that you might be forgiven for completely forgetting that this is a supernatural tale.
Watchmen (2009)
- While a faithful film rendition of the Moore/Gibbons masterpiece graphic novel, with sleek visuals and one of the most impressive opening credit sequences in recent memory, Snyder's Watchmen somehow loses much of its character, essence, and oomph.
Watchmen Animated: Tales of the Black Freighter & Under the Hood (2008)- A neat little addition to the Watchmen universe for fans of the Comic – the Black Freighter being a fictional comic within the original Moore/Gibbons masterpiece. Worth picking up at discount price.
- Blu-Ray $39.95
Fistful of Dollars, A (1964)- A Fistful of Dollars contains some of the most memorable sequences in spaghetti–western history, with both Leone and Eastwood making their mark.
- DVD
$19.95$14.95 
High Plains Drifter (1973)- An unforgettably grim and bloody Western played perfectly by Clint Eastwood as the anti–hero, who within the first few minutes has shocked with multiple murders and rape, while somehow remaining likeable.
Bittersweet Life, A (2005)- Slick, stylish, dark, and at times tongue–in–cheek hilarious, although never quite as deep or affecting as fellow Korean Chan–Wook Park's 'Old Boy'.
Old Boy (Oldboy) (2004)- Both visually stunning and psychologically disturbing, this gangster thriller from the Korean master of his own genre never fails to impress on first or second viewing.
