Movie toplist: 501 to 525
Spriggan
"Spriggan is a pretty fun and over the top anime feature, but only for those who can handle the silliness."
Dumbeast
"Donju brings a special breed of humor, mixing dry deliveries, nonsensical dialogue and random interludes to a strange puddle of laughs."
High & Low: The Movie 3 - Final Mission
"Final Mission is a slightly more toned down finale to the series, but it's still an extremely stylish, dynamic and blissfully extravagant film that knows no equal."
Godzilla: City on the Edge of Battle
"Even though this film may be a bit too dense and slow for some, once Gojira awakes there's still plenty of massive and all-destructive chaos to look forward to."
Cashback
"Cashback is a charming, inventive and dreamy coming-of-age romance with several stand-out moments and memorable ideas."
The Legend of Fong Sai-Yuk
"You have to be a fan of wire-fu antics and elongated martial arts scenes to appreciate a film like this, but if you do then you're getting one of the most spectacular and creative films in the genre."
Kick-ass
"Even if you don't like superheroes, even if you don't like the nerdy overtones, hell, even if you don't give a damn about the whole setup, Kick-Ass is still a pretty cool film."
Exodus
"You should like the arthouse aesthetics and you're required to pick up on the humor, if not this film is probably a serious drag. But if you do, it will be a worthwhile experience, guaranteed."
Aberdeen
"It's another great addition to Pang's oeuvre and proof that he's a truly unique force in the Hong Kong movie industry. One for the connoisseurs."
Fantastic Mr Fox
"If you like (stop-motion) animation this film is a definite recommendation. The animation itself could've been better, but the whole setting is just too much fun to pass on."
Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior
"A superb central performance of Jaa, amazing fight and chase scenes and some of the most bone-crunching martial arts moves recorded on film. First-class action cinema."
Nightmare Detective 2
"Nightmare Detective 2 might be his most commercial work to date, there is still plenty here to scare away the regular movie fan."
White Snake 2: Green Snake
"The imaginative designs, the cinematic presentation and the dedication to deliver original lore make this a fantastical adventure that kept me gasping for air until the very end."
The Divide
"With The Divide, Gens created another stylish genre flick."
Sukiyaki Western Django
"This is a film for the typical Miike fan, he who appreciates the weirdness, the comical violence and the cinematic freedom you're unlikely to find anywhere else, especially in genre films."
Sakigake!! Cromartie High
"If you don't mind a bunch of 40-year old actors playing 16-year old high school student with greasy hair and no manners to speak of, you're probably fine."
Sleepless Beauty
"Sleepless Beauty combines clinical torture porn with diabolical science experiments, maximizing impact with a terrific score and some inventive visual touches."
Battle Royale
"Battle Royale is still an amazing experience. It's dynamic, in-your-face, strange and more than a little bewildering, but most of all it's a hell of a lot of fun."
Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl
"Vampire Girl Vs Frankenstein Girl is entertainment to the max. There is no time for dull moments or dramatic depth, just heaps of blood, gore and silliness."
Lips and Soul
"As is the case with most (if not all) genre films, in the end it's the execution that matters and that's where this film shines bright."
Wool 100%
"Wool 100% is a film that you just have to see. You might not like it, but at the least it's an experience worth having."
Secret Fruit
"Secret Fruit is a stylistic highlight that feels cosy and warm and charms its way from start to finish."
Raw
"Raw is a great film for a director just starting out in the business."
Ready or Not
"Ready or Not is a dark and atmospheric horror/comedy with some solid kills, a superb setting, sumptuous visuals, a very likable main character and plenty of sly and sneaky grins."
Dead or Alive: Final
"A fun and entertaining film with some solid action scenes, a funky soundtrack, fine cinematography and a bunch of vintage Miike moments you won't be able to find anywhere else."
