Review: Being Flynn
"Odds seemed in Weitz’s favor for his latest effort, Being Flynn, based on the 2004 memoir by Nick Flynn, Another Bullshit Night In Suck City. Unfortunately, this is one adaptation that doesn’t quite make a successful transition to the silver screen, and that’s for a few reasons. While at least the book title wasn’t subject to the deadening censorship of film and media, the original source is bound to be a much better read than its celluloid counterpart plays as a film."

Attenberg formed abruptly as a film that observes the human species as little animals who are scared of their reproductive system... Observing them in the manner of nature documentaries. Sir David Attenborough's documentaries move me to tears. I consider them highly poetic, scientific melodramas.
Review: Let the Bullets Fly
"The fourth feature film from director Jiang Wen (best known for his 2000 film Devils on the Doorstep) infuses samurai inspired comedy with classic Western flairs like train robberies, crime lords, and the oppression of small town communities in need of new law. For the most part, it’s an entertaining effort worth the rather lengthy running time."
