Run, Lola, Run - this has become a favorite of mine. After watching it intently the first time, it's a good one to put in when I'm distracted and can only give the TV my partial attention. This kinetic movie is best watched with the original German soundtrack with subtitles. The English dubbing is over-emoted.
- 4 out of 5 stars
Better Off Dead - cute, funny, and lightly dark teen romantic comedy, sometimes venturing into the realm of fantasy.
- 3 out of 5 stars
Mad Max - classic sci-fi film, better than it was intended to be. The DVD version has the original track, complete with the Australian actors' original voices, toned-down music, and understated background effects. Rated R for mostly suggested blood and gore, it would probably garner a PG-13 rating today.
- 3.5 out of 5 stars
The Road Warrior - more action and less story with this freak-laden sequel, more fun than a realistic view of the future. The real star of the movies, the black V8 Interceptor, met its demise here so I don't know why they bothered with number III or why they're making number IV.
- 3 out of 5 stars
Warning - blog owner is old and cranky and if you leave a comment he will follow you back to your place and return comment which usually leads to drama and debate, so if your blog is particularly Jesus / kitty / kid-intensive, you may want to reconsider.
