Nu ji xie ren (1991)
Not a great movie per se, but ...
This film, which goes by the English title "Robotrix" and is available dubbed, is a Hong Kong version of Russ Meyer meets James Cameron. It's ultraviolent, with three hot actresses. The movie is sporadically entertaining and at times disgusting. I give it a 10 only because of the presence of Chikako Aoyama, who topless is a wonder to behold. Amy Yip is also beautiful, skinny and pneumatic. Otherwise I'd give it a 6. One extra point each.
Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989)
One of Woody Allen's best films.
"Crimes and Misdemeanors" is one of those films that sticks. There are fine performances throughout, especially Martin Landau, who is brilliant. Next to his Oscar winning performance as Bela Lugosi in "Ed Wood," this is Landau's finest work I know of. I highly recommend this film to anyone who has a strain of moral skepticism or nihilism, or who at least thinks that people don't always pay for their bad actions.
