IT'S ONLY LIFE

NEW TO THEATRES...


* The Hunger Gamesodds are I sorta kind love this movie. A smart adaptation of the books makes for one pleasing blockbuster.

UPDATED TO CRITERION CONFESSIONS...

Finishing out the Nikkatsu Noir collection of Japanese crime films with two starring Joe Shishido:
* Cruel Gun Story
* A Colt is My Passport

Speaking of noir, I also have a piece in this week's Portland Mercury about a film noir festival coming to town. Read it.

THIS WEEK IN DVD/BD REVIEWS...
* Tyrannosaur, a brutal social drama about the cycle of violence from British actor Paddy Considine

* La Visita (The Vistor), a bittersweet 1960s romantic comedy starring 8 1/2's Sandra Milo
