Rating: ★★★
Jan 20, 2016Near-Future/Reconciliation Drama
An SF outing from Thomas Vinterberg that proved a flop with audiences. It is never satisfying as an SF film but you cannot deny it is directed with a beautiful and sophisticated cool that draws you inside it

Death Note: The Last Name (2006)
Rating: ★★★★
Aug 17, 2007Notebook with Killing Powers
The second of the Japanese Death Note films, released almost back-to-back with the first. This is an even better film than its predecessor, delighting in the twists and turns in the games as Light and his nemesis L outwit each other
