    They Bite!: The Making of Critters

    ★★★½

    A very engaging and informative making-of documentary included on Shout Factory's blu-ray box set of all four Critters movies.

    Friday the 13th Part 2

    ★★★½

    That's more like it! The first sequel is about as artless as the previous one, but feels a lot more like a full-on exploitation film and is therefore a LOT less boring to watch than the previous film.

    ★★★★

    Not being able to get over Alan Rickman’s death is just about the most relatable trauma I’ve ever seen in a movie.

    I Saw the Devil

    ★★½

    Weird: I remember being very impressed by this when it first came out, but I now thought this grimdark revenge fantasy was long, repetitive and quite tedious, the relentless violence soon growing tiresome as it is neither given any dramatic weight by downright cartoonish characters, nor relief by having a sense of humor or dramatic irony.
