Movie top list: 626 to 650
The Crab Cannery Ship

"Kanikosen is a solid come-back for Tanaka. Visually impressive, boasting a superb setting and a strong cast."
Poser

"There is something wildly intriguing about young people carving out their own way through life, for that reason alone a film like Poser is worth championing."
Raw

"Raw is a great film for a director just starting out in the business."
Antarctica: A Year on Ice

"Antarctica: A Year on Ice is a template for what I look for in a good documentary. It's factual, it's fair and it has strong filmic qualities."
Terminator Salvation

"If you think films like Terminator Salvation need a solid storyline and well-developed characters, you would do best to stay away from this film."
Outcast

"With Outcast he delivers a dark, hellish and barren fantasy grounded in obscure myths and set in a depressively dirty neighborhood."
Halloween II

"Halloween II might not be the purest of films, driven by the purest of choices, but the result is a smashingly good slasher flick."

![[Rec] 3: Genesis review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/rec-3.webp)
"Plaza knows how to deliver a fun, action-filled zombie flick that harbors some kick-ass gore and a few very funny moments."
Human, Space, Time and Human

"A strong, visceral and aptly executed allegory. A rough ride that combines beauty and darkness in a way that invariably links them together as an inescapable part of the human condition."
Stoker

"Stoker was a very pleasant discovery. I didn't expect too much from it, but from the very first moments the film pulled me in and never let go after that."
Asako I & II

"There's quite a lot of quirkiness to get through, but on the other side of that lies a beautifully made, emotionally touching and deeply humane drama."
Eli, Eli, Lema Sabachthani?

"For the slightly more adventurous film fan who doesn't mind a highbrow aesthetic and can handle some arthouse vibes, but also doesn't shun a bit of experimentation and genre influence."
Green Tea

"The lush cinematography, the quirky and tantalizing soundtrack and the effective mystery, supported by some stellar performances, make for an intriguing and refreshing film that defies expectations. "
Throw Down

"It's just a very fun and entertaining film with a good few memorable scenes. In the end it's not one of To's absolute bests, but definitely worth watching."
The Greasy Strangler

"It's a crazy film, full of oddball characters, strange conversations and overstated emotions, executed in such a way that it becomes madly funny."
Aliens

"Regardless of its diminishing appeal, Aliens is still a film I love revisiting (though the next time I might just ditch the Director's Cut)."
Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy

"A superb cast, intriguing characters and electrifying conversations paint a picture of likeable, 3-dimensional people who find themselves in somewhat awkward situations."
De Patrick

"De Patrick has a very interesting look, sports a great soundtrack, isn't childish about its subject matter and is mysterious, darkly funny and somewhat baffling throughout."
MadS

"Doing a zombie outbreak as a one-shot endeavor was a smart choice and thanks to the excellent execution MadS turned into a film that does its premise proud."
Lost Indulgence

"Some lovely visuals, a strong score and some neat little touches to lighten up the atmosphere from time to time and what you have is quality drama"
Spring & Chaos

"Kawamori presents a worthy and classy tribute to the genius of Miyazawa, a film that may not be your average biography, but is much better because of it."
Angel

"A mysterious, entrancing film that draws a lot of strength from its audiovisual qualities, but ultimately works because of the complex and captivating relationship between the two leads."
Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring

"The pleasant cinematography and extraordinary setting, the lovely score and the relatable themes make this one of Kim's most accessible films, perfect if you need an entry into his oeuvre."
Crime or Punishment?!?

"Kera delivers a weird, confident and funny film that looks the part, sports some solid comedy acting and has plenty of scenes worthy of a healthy chuckle."
Hate

"Thanks to the strong performances of the central cast, the stylish black-and-white cinematography, and the fitting soundtrack it is still an impressive film with a gutwrenching finale."
