Chocolate

Rating: 
8/10

Well done Kung-Fu flick about a retarded girl who knows how to fight.

Tokyo Gore Police

Rating: 
6/10

Japanese splatter. Despite the gore, it gets boring pretty quickly.

The French Sex Murders

Rating: 
5/10

Mediocre giallo from Dick Randall and Mondo Macabro

The Dark Knight

Rating: 
9/10

Even better than Batman Begins.

Sabata

Rating: 
8/10

A better-than-most Spaghetti Western with high-flying acrobatics.

Sukiaki Western Django

Rating: 
9/10

Super stylish Japanese tribute to Spaghetti Westerns. Only hindered by the thick Japanese accents.

Wall-E

Rating: 
8/10

A fun movie but it felt shallow in the the end to me.

El Orfanato (The Orphanage)

Rating: 
8/10

Very good ghost story from the producers of Pan's Labyrynth.

The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things

Rating: 
6/10

Dark story of child abuse and drugs.

Get Carter

Rating: 
7/10

Still not sure what I think of this. A brutal character study of an anti-hero with a confusing plot.
