Here is what I watched:
- Speed – Rewatch (Cinema) – Definitely a film meant to be seen on the big screen.
- Leviathan – First Viewing (Cinema) – Best thing I can say is that the film didn’t make me vomit.
- The Face of Another – First Viewing (Cinema) – A delightfully weird and surreal morality tale.
- A Colt is My Passport – First Viewing (Cinema) – A Yazuka film as Western
- The Incredible Burt Wonderstone – First Viewing (Cinema) – I liked it.
- Ondine – First Viewing (Netflix) – It was an OK fantasy/drama, however a somewhat more interesting version of the Selkie legend can be found in John Sayles’ 1994 film The Secret of Roan Inish.
- Greedy Lying Bastards – First Viewing (Cinema) – Left wing propaganda about right wing propaganda
- The Mask – Rewatch (Cinema) – The effects are getting a bit dated, but it’s still fun.
- Canadian Film Fest: The Storm Within – First Viewing (Cinema) – Quite an effective revenge thriller
- The Iron Giant – First Viewing (Cinema) – Wow…Just Wow
- Canadian Film Fest: Please Kill Mr. Know It All – First Viewing (Cinema) – Very sitcomy and cliched romantic comedy.
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – Rewatch (Cinema) – They don’t make films like this anymore.
- Canadian Film Fest: The Disappeared – First Viewing (Cinema) – Interesting story about survival on a lifeboat
- Canadian Film Fest: Skull World – First Viewing (Cinema) – A very entertaining documentary.
- Hedwig and the Angry Inch – First Viewing (Cinema) – Turned out to be quite entertaining.
- Canadian Film Fest: Mr. Viral – First Viewing (Cinema) – Wasn’t all too crazy about this one.
- Hitman Hart: Wrestling with Shadows – Rewatch (Cinema) – Still a powerful look behind the curtain of the “not as fake as it seems” world of pro wrestling
- From Up on Poppy Hill – First Viewing (Cinema) – Even though this film has a much more “real world” premise than other Studio Ghibli films, there is still a lot to like about this film.
- John Dies at the End – Rewatch (Cinema) – Understood the film much better the second time around.
- Annie Hall – First Viewing (Blu-Ray) – OK film, though I was somewhat confused by the non-chronological telling of the story
