Shadow Lake (1999)
DO NOT WATCH THIS!!
There are some bad things in life. However I would rather attend 30 funerals and tell 25 children that their dog has just died than go through the sheer torture that this film was. The guy that plays the cop isn't too bad, but apart from that there are no, I repeat no redeeming features of this abominable film.
Heat (1995)
Too long.
Wonderful performances, very well shot and generally excellent, but there is not a chance in hell that that film needed to be so long. There are a lot of scenes which could have been cut out and would not have taken away my enjoyment, in fact it would have added quite a bit.
Nuovo Cinema Paradiso (1988)
Blissful
I am not a man that uses words like blissful. However, this film had me, a 22 year old, 6ft 2in, 200lb, chauvinistic and cynical dinosaur weeping uncontrollably at the end. That is not right.
The film has an undercurrent of humour all the way through and it is not, as I had been told by a foolish (Formerly trusted) friend, a chick flick.
If you haven't seen it watch it. It is in my top ten and it is easily the sort of film I could watch at any time of day and in any kind of mood.
