Street Fighter Alpha: Generations – Review

Street Fighter Alpha: Generations – Review

In a quest to become a true martial arts master, Ryu sets out to hone his street fighting skills and to deliver himself from the haunting legacy of the Dark Hadou. Sadly, instead of continuing from Street Fighter Alpha to part 2 we are presented with a 45 minute prequel which is obviously not aimed at any street fighter fan...

The Case of Itaewon Homicide – Review

The Case of Itaewon Homicide – Review

The Case of Itaewon Homicide follows the actual real life case of an unsolved murder in Seoul's Itaewon district in 1997 that plays out largely in English. It felt very similar to Zodiac, where a movie is made about a crime case that lacks a proper conclusion leaving the viewer hanging in the balance. However, fans of true crime stories will definitely not want to miss this...

Letters from Iwo Jima – Review

Letters from Iwo Jima – Review

This movie makes clear how the rigid military discipline and samurai coda of bushido worked against the Japanese throughout the fight for Iwo Jima. Letters from Iwo Jima is a film guaranteed to provide an evenings entertainment and one to seriously consider adding to your movie collection as it is one of those films that gets you and keeps you thinking long after it's over...

Vengeance – Review

Vengeance – Review

With a film named Vengeance, you already know revenge is the name of the game. Also, expect several scenes without any dialog, as To wants the audience to watch the body language, so as to do the interpretation themselves. Those sitting on the fence will wonder what the fuss is about with this film being part of the official selection at the Cannes Film Festival. I, too, was scratching my head...

Treeless Mountain – Review

Treeless Mountain – Review

The film takes place in the congested streets of Seoul to the rural countryside. In Treeless Mountain a mother drops off her children to live with her alcoholic sister in law. The meaning is artfully implied by watching the girls as they react to the people and happenings around them. It is a profound experience of cinematic deduction--truly unique in its manner of delivering its message.

Dante’s Inferno: An Animated Epic – Review

Dante’s Inferno: An Animated Epic – Review

Dante’s Inferno made me think about evil, morality, the nature of god, all that stuff. It is thoughtful and smart, with a story that makes sense. A lot of the animes you watch make no sense whats so ever, but this made perfect sense all the way through. This film is interesting because it’s all about point of view.

Cencoroll – Review

Cencoroll – Review

At a little under twenty seven minutes, barely a fraction of its theme is explored. Cencoroll could best be described as a winning idea burdened by a lack of design sense and questionable editing. There is not much to work with but it makes for a quick escape for casual film watchers and just the right fix for the hardcore fans of the genre.
