At the Movies – Ponderous Personal Projects

Local Hero [1983]

Local Hero
Bill Forsyth
4/6

A sweet little film, where nothing much happens, really.

Excalibur
John Boorman
5/7

Maybe I should’ve done this as a make/remake with Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Good stuff.

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs
Joel & Ethan Coen
5/7

Nice. Not just weird-for-the-sake-of-weird like the last umpteen Coen films.

Bound
The Wachowski Brothers
3/6

This is nothing like The Matrix!

Death Wish
Eli Roth
1/6

I don’t understand why they remake movies.

Death Wish
Michael Winner
3/5

I remembered completely wrong.

Filth
Jon S. Baird
4/7

Limitless
Neil Burger
3/6

Feels like TV.

Colossal
Nacho Vigalondo
3/5

Monster
Patty Jenkins
3/5
