Some Kind Of Monster

Some Kind Of Monster

Terrific film about 4 guys trying to save their friendship. Even if you don’t know or like Metallica’s music, this is a fascinating film.

Get Thrashed

Get Thrashed

A fun look at the music that stills holds a special place in my heart. It was especially cool to see footage from my first concert.

Death Race

Death Race

A juvenile, brainless, loud, predictable, ridiculously violent, unoriginal film from Paul W.S. Anderson. I kind of loved it.

The Foot Fist Way

The Foot Fist Way

An inept Taekwondo instructor’s life unravels in this low budget comedy. I really had high hopes for this one, but it was just kind of ok.

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.
