The Fall

The Fall

A stunningly beautiful and suprisingly touching film from acclaimed director Tarsem. A wonderful tribute to the art of storytelling.

Snow Angels

Snow Angels

A powerful, beautiful, and riveting drama from one of the best directors working today, David Gordon Green. Seek this one out.

Stuck

Stuck

Tight little thriller based on the horrific real-life event. I’m glad to see that Stuart Gordon is still putting out some interesting films.

Chicago 10

Chicago 10

Fascinating doc about the historic 1968 DNC and ridiculous trial. Mixes actual news footage and animated courtroom re-enactments. A must see.

10,000 B.C.

10,000 B.C.

Completely boring and insulting film from Roland Emmerich, who used to make fun movies like Stargate and ID4. This is total junk.

The Onion Movie

The Onion Movie

Hit or miss sketch comedy film from the famed news outlet. Seagal keeps reappearing as himself promoting a new film called Cock Puncher.

My Giant

My Giant

Seagal briefly cameos in a movie Billy Crystal’s character is producing in this really terrible laugh-free film.

Kill Switch

Kill Switch

Seagal plays a Memphis detective on the trail of a brutal serial killer. First time I saw someone get curbed since American History X. Ouch!

Pistol Whipped

Pistol Whipped

Not as strong as Urban Justice, but far better that most of Seagal’s later DTV work. Seagal creates a nicely nuanced character with flaws.

Urban Justice

Urban Justice

Finally a DTV that is a throwback to the glory days of great Seagal films. Great action, cool villain. I really enjoyed this one.

Flight Of Fury

Flight Of Fury

Remake of the 1998 Michael Dudikoff thriller Black Thunder that Seagal didn’t really want to make and it shows.

Attack Force

Attack Force

Seagal is sent to Paris to find out who killed 3 of his trainees. Turns out it was a super-powered hooker. No joke.

The Promotion

The Promotion

Seann William Scott and John C. Rielly go head-to-head for the new supermarket general manager’s position in this really funny film.

Baby Mama

Baby Mama

What started out as a very bad episode of 30 Rock was only saved by a great performance from Amy Peohler.
