Good Movies
2004
50 first dates funny, but unlike most of sandler's movies, this one isnt stupid.
along came polly pretty fun but lacking in a lot of areas. its on my good list, but barely.
the forgotten the trip is more captivating than the destination in this well made
sci-fi thriller. the ending is
forgettable, but there are quite a few tense moments throughout the film. recommended by me, especially if you liked
the x-files.
hellboy good
action, cool effects and characters, humor, and an all around good time. its solid.
hero
visually stunning film with jaw-dropping fight choreography. the moral of the story is a little sappy, but
it was poetically done in what seems to be a classically chinese manner.
kill bill vol 2 probably better than the first and an all around
solid movie, just a notch below great.
man on fire stylishly well made film fueled by a mans vengeance and his love
renewed by the innocence of a little girl.
the passion of the christ in the end it is still thought provoking, despite
flaws.
the punisher well made action film that is funny and smart. not perfect, but its close.
spiderman 2 cheesy in parts, but overall very entertaining.
2003
american splendor drab look at life, interesting and funny and even
kind of happy. all about being normal.
american wedding not the best movie, but the funny is funny.
big fish charming tale of a father and son.
charlie's angels: full throttle unchecked action for vegetative pleasure.
daddy day care cute little film. nothing
cutting edge, but enjoyable as a light-hearted family film.
house of sand and fog severely dramatic film that touches on morality and
the consequences of making unsound decisions.
good performances throughout and nice camerawork strengthen the impact
of a somewhat abstract plot.
the human stain nice performances in a somewhat interesting but
overdone story. borderline average.
the hunted intense struggle between teacher and pupil.
just married a couple just married are having a tough go of it, and it struck a
chord of truth in me.
kill bill vol 1 well made tale of revenge, martial arts style, with
masterful fight scenes.
lord of the rings: the return of the king end of the epic series, probably the best of the
series.
pirates of the caribbean: the curse of the black
pearl instant classic pirate
film.
runaway jury entertaining and interesting court drama.
stuck on you funny, sweet movie.
the triplets of belleville unique and weird, interesting to sit through.

look at hitler before his rise to power.
monsturd ridiculous. toilet humor.
punch-drunk love odd and off-kilter love story told from the point
of view of a man trying to cope with his dysfunctions.

commentary.
the tuxedo jackie chan with a neat story.

from hell jack the ripper with interesting interpretation.
happenstance cute french film about destiny.
jin-roh difficult

argentosoma vol 1 - another reality nicely drawn animι with a conventional theme. this first volume leaves a little to be
desired.
battlefield earth revolt of the man-beasts. not as bad as people make it out to be.
the cell visual feast, at times disturbing, with a unique concept. despite occasional poorly planned diversions
and a limited plot, this is a film which sets itself apart.
the nightmare before christmas mildly creepy, but beneath the skin it is sweet and
enjoyable. lots of songs though.
unbreakable what a real life comic hero might be like. well done and atmospheric. dark.

silly fun. nice title music, sucky
background music.

1989
shintaro katsu's zatoichi well filmed but violent film with an intriguing
hero.
