Le Trou, The Hole 1960

Evidently A big inspiration for one of my favorite prisonbreak movies; The Great Escape 1963. The film doesn't have a score or any type of music, but this didn't take away from the tension building. The acting (by a lot of non-actors) and the visuals brought enough tension without.

(A true story of the events at Montluc prison occupied by the Germans during WWII, presented as it really happened by director Robert Bresson.)
First five bucket rating this year..

Брат Brat (1997)

Very famous Russian movie, in Russia. This first movie was more like an introduction of the characters. The story is appealing, never the less, the movie is shorter but you don't notice, is one of the characteristics of the Brat's, they seem to never end with so much constant information.

Брат 2 Brat 2 (2000)

This one is my favorite, I believe it was greatly inspired in Stroszek by Werner Herzog, my favorite movie of all time. This time he goes to America to show the real American dream, like a comedian once said: You have to be asleep to believe it.

Overall, is the best hitman kind of movie I've ever saw. A interesting note, this movie was the base for the, by some called, best game ever made, GTA IV.

The Spook Who Sat by the Door - 7.5/10
Someone told me "Black Klansman" was a bad rip-off (?)

Visually very beautiful, but its 107 minutes seemed twice as long. Took me 2 days to finish it as I kept falling asleep. I own it so was determined to finish it.

Death Wish II (1982)



2nd watch but years ago. Found Paul Kersey (as a charachter) more interesting and venegeful, Bronson was great again. The dialogue is tight and I like that.

6/10

good film.

I felt the same way, and turned it off after 30 minutes, which seemed the length of a full feature movie!

The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot (2018)

Tries to be everything from family friendly Tarantino to serious drama to romance to B-action. Mainly succeeds in being boring.

The Prodigy (2019)

I thought I would give this a chance since I haven't seen a good scary movie in awhile. I thought the trailer was good enough, but the movie was pretty standard. The story was actually respectable until the end, where it crassly tacks on a thread for a sequel. Kinda reminded me of the Orphan 2009 movie, which wasn't great, but better than this. Is something wrong with me irl...this is two bad movie ratings in a row for me which isn't commonplace....

Interested to see these...Sergey Kovalev walks out to the music in brat 2 apparently.

A Letter to Three Wives (1949)

I saw this movie with one of my now-exes and while we agreed we were impressed by the prisoner's intelligence, we also were having trouble staying focused. I gave it for that reason. Maybe I'll watch it again someday to re-assess it, but there's so much else I haven't seen yet, so I dunno.

Imitation of Life -

very little to do with the Anthrax song of the same name
