Vlad, don't be a pussy
Some crazy blackish comic horror of which 30 minutes or so should have been left on the floor of the editing room though.
An accomplished astral projector
This was so bad that I couldn't help but watching it and its most ridiculous moments in the history of horror.

Long live the flightless parrot
Got this as an X-mas present this year and even though I had seen it shy of one episode on TV a while back, I watched it again almost at one sitting. Animals, travelling, magnificent-looking places, lotsa sightseeing via own couch. Suits me fine.

All fuckin superiah
Didn't expect fuck all, but quite a cracker, this, and quite surprisingly the actual boxing parts were the movie's worst moments.

Let them bones crack
Didn’t follow this when it was on the telly. I’m glad bought both seasons spontaneously a while back because, as far as the season one is concerned, this is bloody bloody good. Hands down, some of the best television shit right here.

Scum of the earth
A standard issue prison movie. A remake of Scum (1977) which, I hear, is pretty good. This one wasn't.

Clown with a machete
Never liked films that try to be intentionally weird and funny, cool with shocking and blood-curdling violence and consider 'emselves art.

Wrong place wrong time
Don't know about this, it has the essentials; the actors, the action, right sort of realism and it's anyways a war movie in part, but just didn't cut me the right way.
Borders of mind
Without the couple of a-list actors - Murray and Duvall - in the rank, this would've been unbearable, now it's just dull and boring.

Flaunt them and throw them around
It was peculiar and different kind of a dope movie in the beginning, but pretty early on dived into a downward spiral. Fairly decent tho.

Our children are our hearts
Never fail. Michael Connelly's Hieronymous Bosch novels, some of the coolest detective shit out there.

Perfect knock-offs of God
With little effort they could have made this comedy rather radical, dark and hip - quite much like the Chuck Palahniuk novel it's done upon - but obviously that didn't happen.
As good as place as any
You'll kinda dig this if you are 14 years of age, fairly stupid and think Twilight is so fucking adorable and cute.

New strain of scorn
One of those mad conspiratory stories where nothing is what it seems, everything fucks you in the eye. And all is so quite laughably ridiculous.

Building biodigital jazz in utopia
I am not a huge admirer of science fiction, most of the times I get all confused, puzzled and irritated with its futuristic mumbo-jumbo, but I kinda liked watching this since it's discoball-flashy at least.

Pretty rinky-dinky
To come to think of it, it wasn't that bad. Just a little sceptic whether some of the scenes were for real or staged by actors, stunts or other professionals, or SFX was in play.

The sound of thunder
Could quite well be the movie of the year (completed two years ago, but what the heck), if you like them things wet, fishy, immensily beautiful (shocking parts excluded) and blue.

Mush and tasteless
Boldly advertised as a “thriller of the year”. That’s what I though of getting, a thriller of some sort at least. However, Catfish is a documentary of stolen or borrowed identities and it’s vividly discussed whether it’s a fake or not. And I really don’t care.
The truth bends
Has an interesting start, but after that the story just trudges along, goes nowhere and ends disappointingly.
Robin Hood of Collinwood
My kind of a movie. Mafia wars a-blazing, hitmans and snitches, characters tough as nails. And it has a mob movie cast written in the stars to boot.

Satan och kapitalet
Hans Erik Dyvik Husby aka Hank von Helvete (ex-Turbonegro) does quite a magnificently splendid performance as Dutch-born Swedish troubadour and cult figure Cornelis Vreeswijk, unfortunately the movie does not follow his level of commitment.

God is out to lunch
Willem Dafoe as a nazi and Jeff Goldblum as a sad clown. That's the story in a nutshell. That, and it's a boring piece.

To be really dead must be glorious
In 1931. Ust-Abakanskoye becomes Abakan. Robert Duvall and James Earl Jones are born. Al Capone is sentenced to 11 years in prison for tax evasion in Chicago, Illinois. And Tod Browning completes Dracula, Bela Lugosi as Count Vladimir Dracula.

Frumpy sounds onomatopoetically right
I am a fan of this witty, educative and articulate series. It oftentimes flies above my understanding with its U.S. domestic policy jargon, but gladly it's usually style over matter. However, it ain't endlessly top-notch, when The West Wing is kind of in an idle mode it can be deadly boring. But having said that, when it's on fire, it takes your breath away.

Jar of gypsy tears
"Are you telling me the man who tried to put a rubber fist in my anus was a homosexual?" Top that Seth Rogen, Tod Phillips and Adam Sandler.
Come what may
Don't know if it's bad acting or what, but the chemistry between the main stars here is nonexistent, it however doesn't entirely vaporize the appeal of this adult fairytale.
Unholy grasp of Satan
Lotsa cockshite superstition, bodysnatching rascals and walking stiffs. Sounds like in between funny and scary, but it wasn't.
Crazy how you can get yourself in a mess sometimes
Somewhat decent film noir, but even tho' it's a Stanley Kubrick piece, it's nothing out of ordinary.

All this and more
A stand-up comedian struggles to co-parent his autistic son. A simple story, seen many times before, but solid and entertaining little flick...
