Bulletproof (1996)

Half action, Half comedy, TOTALLY ENTERTAINING!

[23 March 2003]

Bulletproof is one of the funniest and action filled movies I have ever seen in a long time, and Damon Wayans and Adam Sandler are a great team, and James Caan is also good as the drug boss Frank Colton. The whole cast kept me laughing, and the action kept the adrenaline running.

Psycho (1960)

Hitchcock's most chilling....

[10/10 · 18 March 2003]

I was absolutely overwhelmed when I saw Psycho, I never thought an older movie would chill me to the bone, and it wasn't just the performances that intrigued me, Bernard Herrmann's classic score lives on with all his scores, I can watch this movie over and over again, and when chilling thrillers are concerned, Hitchcock proves that he is still the master of suspense, even after his death, and Herrmann's scores still terrify, even after his death as well.

Of Mice and Men (1992)

Amazing screen adaption....

[8/10 · 24 January 2003]

I read the book Of Mice and Men as a part of my high school curriculum in English Class in year 9 and I saw the movie available for rent, and from the first moment I saw the film, I knew it was an amazing screen adaption of John Steinbeck's book. Gary Sinise and John Malkovich were just perfect as George and Lennie and the supporting cast were as perfect, including the late Ray Walston as Candy, Sherilyn Fenn as Curley's Wife and Joe Morton as Crooks. If you really enjoyed the book as much as I did, then I highly recommend you see the movie.

Taxi Driver (1976)

A psychological masterpiece....

[10/10 · 13 January 2003]

I first saw Taxi Driver on TV when I was 10 years old, and ever since, I loved it. Martin Scorsese's directing, Paul Schrader's writing and the cast's brilliant acting just captivated me. Robert De Niro was perfectly cast for Travis Bickle, the Vietnam veteran who suffers from insomnia takes up cab driving all over the streets of New York, his life could be heaps better, then he sees Betsy, played brilliantly by a young Cybill Shepherd and he falls instantly for her, then his world is turned upside down when she ditches him after he took her to a pornographic movie. After that, Travis meets 12 1/2 year old prostitute Iris, played with conviction by Jodie Foster and from there, Travis's mental state begins to deteriorate.

A brilliant film for fans of De Niro, Scorsese or fans of psychological dramas.
