  • Cube 1998

    ★★ Added

    Awkward, poorly acted, mediocrely SFXed, and actually kinda dull. I like the idea of a simple movie where archetypes interact with a limited/symbolic environment, this just wasn't a particularly well-executed version of that.

  • The Dark Knight Rises 2012

    ★★★★½ Added

    A lot of the dialog/plot has a certain "don't think too hard about this" quality that galls upon repeated viewings. However, thematically it's pretty great, acting's good, visuals spectacular, nailed the landing, and huge points for sheer ambition.

    (Sidenote: I was impressed with Tom Hardy's voice acting but disappointed by the sound editing. Bane vacillates between too clear & too muffled.)
