Not One Less by Zhang Yimou (Review)
The film’s realistic approach is refreshing and the children’s’ performances are both cute and poignant.Whisper of the Heart by Yoshifumi Kondō (Review)
I was excited to watch Whisper of the Heart, but I found it far more rewarding and relevant than I thought possible.Wasabi by Gérard Krawczyk (Review)
Wasabi isn’t a horrible movie by any means, but it’s a bit too whimsical and lighthearted for its own good.Children of Nature by Friðrik Þór Friðriksson (Review)
A lyrical film about death, nostalgia, and the importance of honoring the wishes of those whose years are near their end.The Matrix Reloaded by The Wachowskis (Review)
I’ll admit that part of me was disappointed, though I’m sure much of that has to with the insane amount of hype that surrounded the film.The Animatrix by Various Artists (Review)
All in all, a very impressive collection that adds quite a bit of flavor to the Matrix world.Dark Water by Hideo Nakata (Review)
With Dark Water, Nakata has delivered everything you could ask from a horror movie plus a little more.Ditto by Kim Jung-Kwon (Review)
This South Korean melodrama’s predictable sappiness belies its earnest performances and some clever time-travel twists.
