Takes a while to get going but once it does, it's really creepy.:eek:

8/10.

Septien (2011)

A truly bizarre, dreamlike, and pretty funny story of three reunited brothers dealing with repression in various forms, portrayed as a kind of spiritual evil. It wasn't hard to get pulled in, taking on the twisted psuedo-naturalism and pace of Gummo, and feeling like an American Southern Gothic novel (which director Michael Tully cites as an influence). It's streaming on Netflix, and I'd at least recommend checking it out for anyone interested in ambitious independent cinema.

Kill List (2011)

The 1st act of the film is a downbeat Britt family drama about a "retired/job less" hit man. In the 2nd act after getting an assignment from an ominous employer we see some torture & gore contents and 3rd or final act comes somewhat with a 'wicker surprise' & everything finishes suddenly.
It tired to be an arty horror film but their effort was actually wasted. The main idea or concept behind the story was fine but the way the film maker executed it was really disappointing. The cast & their acting was good but it was another (somewhat less) boring piece like Matha Mercy May Marlene.

Fantastic film. A mind-blowing script (based on the book by John Le Carre, no less) is complimented by gritty performances, really brilliant cinematography and outstanding direction by the man who gave us Let the Right One In. This should be considered as a landmark in 2011 cinema, heck maybe all cinema in the 2000s.

Highly recommended to anyone who loves espionage thrillers and brilliance in cinema story-telling. Be warned though, some of you might find it a bit of a slow-burn.

^Really want to see that one.

Me too. Gary Oldman is my favorite actor.

Me three! Love Gary Oldman AND Colin Firth!

Super 8: Thought it was a decent movie, kinda too close to a spielberg homage to be taken seriously, but it has its moments.

Nothin' wrong with Spielberg.

Now, I'll just sit back and wait for the contrary opinions to roll on in.

Not gonna disagree. Spielberg is the man and unlike some people, he hasnt lost his touch.
