The Admiral: Roaring Currents (Korean)
++ A Truly Epic Film. And I hate to use "Epic" but that is EXACTLY what this move is. Telling the great tale of Admiral Yi facing off the Japanese Fleet to protect Korea. With the same gentleman who played Oldboy and a director who has already proven the ability to do a large scale battle movie in War of the Arrows, this is an incredible ride. ESPECIALLY the naval battle at the end.
Home I don't know, it just seemed a little TOO pre-packaged, TOO saccharine, TOO "Hey, our Marketing says that Rihanna is a hoot and all the kids love that kooky Sheldon guy from Big Bang, so let's do an alien thing with a pre-teen who misses her mommy and we'll throw in a bunch of pop music in there and. . . BAM! Whaddya think?"
(COUNTLESS REWATCH)
The Crow *BRANDON Lee's swan song. Must of seen this at the theaters around 10 times when it first came out.
*(Thanks Honeykid for the correction! I had put Jason -- silly, silly me)
Savages An Oliver Stone flick that didn't get lost in the acid trip while retaining all the tense grittiness of past movies. Well acted, damn fine script.
Having Wonderful Time (1938)
Like dadg stated: "Good, clean fun, but never boring."
