Too busy, but still respectable. Jay Baruchel’s voice now officially grates (-10%).
Month: December 2014
Four Assassins (2012) 30%
Not much to it.
Freedom Downtime (2001) 50%
Revelatory, but could have used some external, professional influence in its direction and editing.
From Beneath (2012) 0%
Not sure who those people were in the credits – seemed like somebody’s iMovie masterpiece.
Frosty the Snowman (1969) 60%
While generally regarded as a good-natured classic by adults, for children it is the most tragic story ever told about 20 minutes in.
Gone Girl (2014) 70%
Expert treatment of control and perception in this thriller.
Chicken Little (2005) 50%
The landed joke % is not very high, but is otherwise pleasant enough.
The Last Samurai (2003) 60%
Basic sweeping epic.
Frosty’s Winter Wonderland (1976) 40%
Unobjectionable, as long as you don’t think too hard about things like Frosty crying until he gets a woman constructed for him (to his exact specifications).
Gabe the Cupid Dog (2012) 20%
Has the production feel of softcore porn, except with a talking dog. Oh wait, those might not be mutually exclusive.
