A rather uneven affair that suffers from unlikeable characters and the bypassing of an interesting wider social context.
European
[Rec] 2
A vastly inferior sequel that just doesn’t grab the viewer’s attention like the original. Explanation over-load removes any hint of mystery and proves to be [Rec]2’s major downfall.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Measured storytelling, comprehensive characterisation and a number of hard-to-spot plot twists, should make this perfectly crafted crime thriller Sweden’s best export since Ikea.
Micmacs
Being too kooky for it’s own good makes Micmacs a cringing watch.
For a Few Dollars More
This perfectly executed and rousing Spaghetti Western from Sergio Leone makes for an engrossing watch.
A quality hardbitten crime drama that prevails thanks to an admirable depth and an out-of-the-ordinary context.
