Breathe In, Breathe Out review

"If you think it all sounds rather dull than that's perfectly understandable. The thing is, it really isn't. Breathe In, Breathe Out is a beautiful, pure, subtle and heart-warming drama."

"It's cute, charming, funny and perfect for a warm summer evening. Don't expect anything deep or challenging, just let the film's charm sweep you away."

Until the Lights Come Back

0329
Until the Lights Come Back review

"Somehow Until the Lights Come Back never found its way into the mainstream, even though it's a pretty accessible film. It's sweet, upbeat, feel good, a tad long maybe but never slow or boring."

Metropia

"Metropia is a film that will appeal to people who like a dystopian future coupled with a craving for unique animation."

The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover

The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover review

"That is, if you appreciate the vulgarities. Even though the film itself is quite refined, its character are everything but."

The Protector

0332
The Protector review

"As a martial arts fan, The Protector is the kind of movie I love watching. It puts every single baht in making its fight scenes bigger, crazier and more inventive."

The Go Master

0333
The Go Master review

"When it comes to capturing a person as a whole he did a splendid job. The Go Master is a rather slow and moody film, but there's beauty pouring from its seams."

Raging Phoenix

Raging Phoenix review

"Raging Phoenix is another very solid entry in the Thai martial arts selection."

Fires on the Plain

0335
Fires on the Plain review

"This is not a very happy film, nor is it very subtle."

I Stand Alone

0336
I Stand Alone review

"So yeah, Noé could've opted to make a more pensive, explanatory version of the story, but that's not really his style."

The Girl Who Leapt through Time

0337
The Girl Who Leapt through Time review

" If you're in the mood for action or lots of plot twists, there's little here for you. But if you're up for a little variation on the Ghibli magic, this film might be a pretty good bet to make."

The Professional

0338
The Professional review

"The film has aged surprisingly well. The action scenes are still amazing, Reno and Portman continue to impress and there's an edgy playfulness that keeps the film from becoming overly serious."

Magnolia

0339
Magnolia review

"From a professional and critical point of view, Magnolia is probably PTA's most accomplished film. It's a three hour long ensemble film that feels playful, energetic and upbeat."

Ten Nights of Dreams

0340
Ten Nights of Dreams review

"A wonderful collection of shorts, visually pleasing, fun to watch and from time to time refreshingly weird."

Pieta

0341
Pieta review

"Pieta is a pretty complete package. The film looks great, has a superb soundtrack, two extremely impressive leads and a boatload of symbolism for those who enjoy that kind of thing."

Fireball

0342
Fireball review

"The raw and unrelenting bouts are really spectacular and make this one of the best action flicks I've seen in a long time."

Slumdog Millionaire

0343
Slumdog Millionaire review

"Slumdog Millionaire works on all levels. While it starts off as a light drama it ends as a pure feel-good film and has no trouble making it work."

Young Dudes

0344
Young Dudes review

"It's a shame it takes a little too long before the film gets really going, because Chen is obviously a very talented director."

Wonogawa

0345
Wonogawa review

"A film with superb designs, overflowing with creative ideas, more than enough intriguing lore to fill at least three films and executed in a way that hides most of its financial struggles."

An Evening with Beverly Luff Linn

0346
An Evening with Beverly Luff Linn review

"You could read a million reviews and still not know what to expect. There's also no telling whether you'll end up liking it, but I'm pretty confident that this will be a unique experience"

Blood of Rebirth

0347
Blood of Rebirth review

"I still need to see Hanging Garden and Unchain, that said I believe Blood of Rebirth belongs to Toyoda's best output to date and could be the start of something beautiful."

Gantz:O

0348
Gantz:O review

"Gantz:O is brutal, action-packed and a bit mad in the head."

A Writer's Odyssey

0349
A Writer's Odyssey review

"It's grand and epic, technically extremely proficient, it delivers fresh and exciting fantasy realms to explore and the pacing is excellent. A landmark for fantasy cinema"

Wake Up and Die

0350
Wake Up and Die review

"Instead the film leans heavily on the learning process, which goes well beyond the simple A/B testing you'd expect from a concept like this."
