Moonrise Kingdom (2012)
[Cinema]
Despite some sweet and charming content, like other Wes Anderson films, this feels detached. But once again it’s beautifully and painstakingly well constructed.
3/5

Speed Racer (2008)
[SD Streaming]
This is far less enjoyable on a smaller screen and it’s dated astoundingly quickly. There are some painfully unfunny attempts at humour (especially with the child and the chimp), but some people seem to forget this is a Hollywood update of a children’s Japanese cartoon from the 60’s. At the end of the day though, some genuinely dazzling race-car fantasy action make this totally undeserving of its negative response.

Where the Wild Things Are (2009)
[SD Streaming]
An adult film about children. A mature melancholy tone and a strange childish logic to the plot make this film brilliant but difficult to feel strongly about.
3/5

Eden Lake (2008)
[SD Streaming]
If you can ignore the highly questionable class politics, then this grueling tense thriller is probably the best British horror since The Descent.
3/5

Tales of the Night [3D] (2011)
[subbed]
[Cinema]
Simple and pretty. It feels like a series of short educational children’s animations though, and I think it would work better that way.

There’s Something About Mary (1998)
[SD TV]
I still think it’s one of the funniest silly comedies I’ve ever seen.

The Invasion (2007)
[SD Streaming]
Awkward, tedious, and silly. Possible underlying political ideology made me uncomfortable too.

Primer (2004)
[SD Streaming]
Complicated to distraction while elements of production, such as awkward over-dubbing, make this feel cheap (not as cheap as it was though). However it’s smart (too smart for it’s own good) and the low-rent realism works very well.
3/5

Legend of the Millennium Dragon (2011)
[subbed]
[SD Streaming]
Some good quality computer enhanced cell animation and a basic, but still interesting, story is let down but some awful music and mixed pacing, resulting in a rushed ridiculous climax.

Invictus (2009)
[SD Streaming]
Reasonable well made but annoying forced sentiment makes it difficult to enjoy on any level.
