Uwe Boll’s Contra

Added on December 22nd, 2008

Obviously don’t be silly and think that this is the real deal. At this point I’d actually like to do another related thing. And that would be to admit it and say that I did like (read: enjoy) Uwe Boll’s Postal. There, I said it.

You Kill Me

Added on September 30th, 2007

Just finished watching You Kill Me, and holy cow is it a great movie or what. Really loved it. Shame that it’s probably not going to come to the cinemas here (Austria), or even as DVD. Even greater shame that there will probably be more people who have seen say, Doom movie, or Fantastic Four than this movie.

You Kill Me - Frank Falenczyk

So what’s it about? It’s about an assassin from the Polish mafia in Buffalo. It tells the story of Frank Falenczyk, a member of this mafia, who has an alcohol problem which starts getting in the way of his work, and he botches several big jobs. So he gets forced to attend AA meetings in San Francisco, and work part time in a funeral parlor.

You Kill Me - Ben Kingsley in underwear

Don’t want to spoil the rest of the movie. So just going to say that it’s an excellent movie. It’s smart, funny, very dark, but mostly it’s really different and fresh. If you have a chance to watch this, don’t miss it.

A Gentleman’s Duel

Added on August 16th, 2007

A Gentleman’s Duel is a short animation story from the Blur Studio. As with all other Blur animations, it’s excellent. I really love the humour as well.

Does anyone know where I can get a higher resolution version of this short movie? I’ve been trying to find it on Stage6, but their search engine is as useless as a hubcap on a tractor (thanks to Google for wonderful sentence completion help). So if anyone knows, please do share.
