Magnolia, 2008

A Unique Take on Martial Arts

Fantastic, fresh, original and well-done; this film is an interesting blend of spaghetti western (by way of Jodorowsky) and chop-socky kung-fu films. The score is reminiscent of the work of Ennio Morricone and some of the visual style is surreal and seems to echo "El Topo". The fight scenes are ...

The Baxter
Michael Showalter, Elizabeth Banks

MGM (Video & DVD), 2005

Strange Success

+ good laughs for dry humor
+ A Hilarious Film with Heart
