Boiling PointBoiling Point (3-4x10) (1990)
4 stars (Very Good) Made by Kitano when his career was on the way up.
OutrageOutrage (2010)
3 stars (Good Enough) Not as original or as moving as his 1990s gangster films, but stylish and entertaining.
Kids ReturnKids Return (1996)
5 stars (Exceptional) Outstanding and underrated Kitano feature from when he was at his peak.
Cedar RapidsCedar Rapids (2011)
4 stars (Very Good) Enjoyable feel good comedy that is very nonjudgmental about taking drugs and female sexuality (including adultery).
Wildboyz (TV Series)Wildboyz (TV Series) (2003-2005)
4 stars (Very Good) Amusingly juvenile and homoerotic, Steve O and Pontius prove to be charismatic stars of the show, along with the animals as well as the awesome Manny Puig.
Scott Pilgrim Vs The WorldScott Pilgrim Vs The World (2010)Recommended
2 stars (Good Try) Rather uninvolving and pleased with itself.
Lickerish Quartet, TheLickerish Quartet, The (1970)
4 stars (Very Good) Rather pretentious, but in a good way.
World's Greatest DadWorld's Greatest Dad (2009)Aro Favourite
5 stars (Exceptional) Top class black comedy that is not sentimental at all. The son is one of the best teenage characters ever.
Checkmate ProvenzanoCheckmate Provenzano (2007)
1 star (Turkey) Unwatchable unless (a) you already have good familiarity with Provenzano\'s arrest; and (b) you can read and understand Italian. None of the written Italian is translated.
10 to Midnight10 to Midnight (1983)
3 stars (Good Enough) Sleazy Dirty Harry rip off. You could do worse!
