Z
CHANNEL: A MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION (2005, d. Alexandra Cassavettes) V.
Well made, informative docu on Jerry Harvey with great movie clips. ***
1/2 |
ZACK
AND MIRA MAKE A PORNO (2008, d. Kevin Smith) Intermittantly funny and
Rogan is the perfect pomo hero...still, Smith's script sucks. ** 1/2 |
ZATOICHI
(2004, d. Takeshi Kitano) Sorry, I was sort of bored...but the Japanese
"Riverdance" rhythmic stuff was fun, if weird. ** 1/2 |
ZELARY
(2004, d. Ondrej Trojan) Beautifully realized WWII story of a nurse who
escapes from the Gestapo to a small Czech village & finds herself. ***
1/2 |
ZHOU
YU'S TRAIN (2004, d. Sun Zhou) Elliptical romantic drama about a
woman torn by conflicting love for two men. Confusing and overwrought.
* 3/4 |
ZIFT
(2009, d. Vladislav Todorov; Bulgaria) *** |
ZIM
AND CO. (2005, d. Pierre Jolivet) *** |
ZODIAC
(2007, d. David Fincher) Fascinating procedural which plays like All the
Presidents Men rather than Se7en. *** 1/4 |
ZOE
(2001, d. Deborah Attoinese) ** 1/2 |
ZOMBIELAND
(2009, d. Rubin Fleischer) Eisenberg is always good; and there are some
amusing things here; but I guess that I'm just immune to zombies. **
1/2 |
ZOOKEEPER,
THE (2002, d. Ralph Zian) *** |
ZOZO
(2005, d. Josef Fares; Sweden) *** |
ZUS
& ZO (2003, d. Paula van der Oest) Netherlands
AFF. Family farce about 3 sisters and their gay brother. *** 1/4 |
