Watched The Agitator - a very complex yakuza film by Takashi Miike - played straight unlike most of his other films. Very good, drew me in after a very slow start.
And Team America.

Exasperated, not angry.
Jean Luc Godards Week End.
Very peculiar film, lots and lots of death and carnage and compelling critique of consumerist capitalism.
Or some weird frenchies wandering round in silly costumes and quoting sub-Marxist texts.
Probably the former. Damned entertaining anyway.

Come & See - words can't describe the power of this film. Absolutely blown away by this.

Mulholland Drive. For some reason I missed it first time round.
And now, of course, I have to watch it again to try and figure it all out. Clever film I think - leaves the first-time viewer with the impression that it'll all come together given a renewed effort, but the sneaking suspicion that Lynch is half talking the piss again and that not everthing is supposed to make sense.

really? i thought it was pretty dire.. i mean, the film LOOKED fucking fantastic. but the acting was grim (and that's bearing in mind it was supposed to be a 'hardboiled' genre piece) and they just didn't do enough with it.. but like i say, the best looking movie i've seen in a long time...

Starry Wisdom
watched that 'fistful of dynamite'.

'Dire' is a tad harsh, isn't it?
RenegadeDog said:
ok, maybe not actually 'dire'. but it did strike me as a wasted opportunity (and those are the films that annoy me the most).. to gather that look, and that cast and make something that seemed so, i dunno, 'thin' somehow..

True - one thing that could be a problem with the new Batman film too, which also has an amazing cast and is based on a comic book, with a pretty cool look...
I just watched Equilibrium. Really good film, if a bit derivative (basically a Matrix-Fahrenheit 451-Harrison Bergeron-Gattaca combo but really classily done. Convinces me even more Bale will be superb as Batman.

Nothing last night--but tonight for me its the 'Kingdom of Heaven'. I do hope the Battle of Hattin is shown fully: an enterprise that makes the Charge of the Light Brigade an unabashed military success...

It got really accused of being a Matrix ripoff, and superficially that's true, especially in the fight scenes (although they don't actually use the slowed-down bullet thing or anything, a completely new style of fighting merging kung fu and gun fighting was developed for the film), but the story is more like old-school 1984/Fahrenheit 451 kind of scifi, rather than the cyberpunkish Matrix.
A lot, lot better than the 33% given on Rotten Tomatoes would suggest.
just watched Garden State, which i really enjoyed whilst knowing that it's bollocks really
one of those american quasi-indie movies which is full of small, sad, significant moments that you get swept up in until the film ends, and then you realise it was just nonsense
the yanks are really good at those......

'A Tale Of Two Sisters' by Kim Je Woon.
Apart from the dvd being annoyingly out of synch I really enjoyed this - a psychological horror that plays around with realities. And lots of blood, obviously.

I found that well creepy in places but it didn't hang together at all as a wider film. I think i might just be korean/Japansese girls with long hair-ed out...
