| 75 15% | Wasabi (2001) - Rated 23 Sep 2007
"Movies written by Luc Besson and including actors such as Jean Reno and Carole Bouquet are always fun to watch. Having said that, this was not the "creme de la creme" of Besson, Reno, nor of Bouquet's films. It was a relatively fluffy action flick, with a nice dose of humorous moments to keep the audience amused. Perfectly acceptable for a relaxing night of light-hearted, easy-to-digest movie watching."

| 90 65% | The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1988) - Rated 22 Sep 2007
"An excellent rendition of Milan Kundera's novel with an exquisite cast. It's been a while since I've seen it but I remember it as having been the catalyst to falling in love with Kundera's novels."

| 85 40% | Canadian Bacon (1995) - Rated 22 Sep 2007
"A funny movie with a very serious undertone which may, or may not, be caught and appreciated by everyone. I think that much more than being just some "silly John Candy movie", it's got some insightful social and political commentary to make about American politics, especially its Foreign Policy."

| 90 65% | Contact (1997) - Rated 22 Sep 2007
"So excellent. The debates between the worlds of science and religion are two crucial areas which need to meet and "Contact" helps to do just that in cinematic form. A beautiful movie portraying the notion that science and religion do not need to exist in mutually exclusive dimensions, even if many people believe it to be so."

| 85 40% | Super Size Me (2004) - Rated 22 Sep 2007
"An excellent documentary about McDonald's and the obesity problem in the States. The movie goes on to explore marketing ploys as well. A very good cautionary tale with Morgan adding in his own brand of humour at regular intervals turning "serious" into "serious fun"."

"Edgy, intelligent and hilarious. Loved this movie! Plus, a very fun 80's soundtrack to boot - can't beat that."

| 70 5% | Shortbus (2006) - Rated 22 Sep 2007
"I thought this film was well made in terms of cinematography and portrayal of sexual subcultures. It would have been nice to see the development of the various personality types a bit more though. Instead, it shared with the viewer a snapshot of a sensual journey without talking about where it might all eventually lead. That would have been something I would have loved to have seen."

| 99 95% | Amélie (2001) - Rated 22 Sep 2007
"I absolutely loved this movie! The storyline, as well as the cinematography, pleased every human sense. Humorous, sad, touching and playful, all at the same time. Simply fantastic."

| 80 25% | Doctor Strange: The Sorcerer Supreme (2007) - Rated 22 Sep 2007
"A good Marvel movie. Nice animation, lots of action and the storyline, as well as the main message, are interesting as well. Fun for kids and adults alike."
