The two become best friends. But Anna gradually discovers that Marnie is not quite who she appears to be.The story does not make much sense, but at least it's pretty. 7/10
- DirectorHsiao-Hsien HouStarsShu QiChang ChenYun ZhouA female assassin receives a dangerous mission to kill a political leader in eighth-century China.Slow as *beep*. 8/10
- DirectorJukka VidgrenStarsPentti KorhonenBrad CartnerHeikki SaloSometimes evil is it's own rewardFun for the whole family. Furthermore, the fluffy little mutant koala is cuddly and cute. 7/10
- DirectorPhilip MarcusStarsMike TysonMike Tyson's one-man show is a fascinating journey into his storied life and career.Tyson can barely speak, so watch with subtitles. Speech impediments aside, earning 400 million dollars by punching people in the face is pretty impressive. The last 10 minutes during which he talks about the death of his daughter are gut-wrenching. Also, *beep* Brad Pitt. 8/10
- DirectorJeff MalmbergStarsMark HogancampEmmanuel NnejiEdda HogancampDocumentary about Mark Hogancamp. After a vicious attack leaves him brain-damaged and broke, Mark seeks recovery in "Marwencol", a 1/6th scale World War II-era town he creates in his backyard.

- DirectorAleksandr PetrovStarsGordon PinsentKevin DuhaneyYôji MatsudaAn old fisherman goes out on his fishing trip and makes a huge catch, the biggest of his life.Even thinking about the amount of work that went into making this 20-minute-long glass-painting animation film makes me happy that I'm here sitting on my butt writing stupid little pieces of text and avoiding any real work. 9/10
- DirectorVincent ParonnaudMarjane SatrapiStarsChiara MastroianniCatherine DeneuveGena RowlandsA precocious and outspoken Iranian girl grows up during the Islamic Revolution.The most inspiring use of Eye of the Tiger in film history. 10/10
- DirectorRobert BiermanStarsJacob AveryGeorgina RylanceNicholas FarrellThe investigation into a 12-year old disappearance is revived, and Lynley gets involved since he is a friend of the victim's family.It's a pretty enjoyable cheesy murder mystery. 5/10
- StarsStephen CarpenterChi ChengAbe CunninghamThe Sacramento-based alternative metal band takes an exciting foray to the serene grounds of the Aloha State.The only reason to watch this are the amazing acoustic versions of older Deftones songs. Especially Knife Party is brilliant acoustic. The occasional volcano fun facts are pretty cool too, I guess. 6/10
- DirectorTakashi MiikeStarsKenji SawadaKeiko MatsuzakaShinji TakedaA family moves to the country to run a rustic mountain inn when, to their horror, the customers begin befalling sudden and unlikely fates.I don't even know. 8/10

- DirectorSion SonoStarsReina TriendlMariko ShinodaErina ManoA girl's life cascades into chaos as everyone around her suffers a gruesome fate while she becomes less certain of who she is and her once-once normal life.Mildly amusing. Sono should have stopped after Himizu. 5/10
- DirectorShinji SômaiStarsHiroko YakushimaruTsunehiko WataseRentarô MikuniA teenage delinquent schoolgirl named Izumi Hoshi inherits her father's Yakuza clan.A directionless mess with a funny premise. 3/10
- DirectorJing WongStarsAndy LauJacky CheungAaron KwokRyu, Dhalsim and Vega are sent out to stop M. Bison. They befriend a teenage school student and seek out Bison. Bison sends out his own soliders, Ken and Sagat.This is by far the funniest film I've seen in a long time. Not sure what's up with the cosmic Street Fighter character rip-offs, though. 7/10
- DirectorEthan CoenJoel CoenStarsOscar IsaacCarey MulliganJohn GoodmanA week in the life of a young singer as he navigates the Greenwich Village folk scene of 1961.The Coens have mastered this style of black comedy a long time ago, so it didn't come as a surprise that they had nailed it again with Llewyn Davis. 9/10
- DirectorBob HathcockStarsAlan YoungChristopher LloydTerence McGovernScrooge McDuck takes Huey, Dewey, and Louie to Egypt to find a pyramid and magic lamp.Ducktales! Wooo-oo! 8/10
- DirectorAlex GibneyStarsPaul HaggisJason BegheSpanky TaylorA documentary looking at the inner-workings of the Church of Scientology.L. Ron Hubbard had a good mind for cheesy, B-grade sci-fi stories. 8/10
- DirectorKirby DickStarsAmy ZieringKirby DickKori CiocaAn investigative documentary about the epidemic of rape of soldiers within the US military.A great documentary to ruin your day with. 7/10

- DirectorIshirô HondaStarsTakashi ShimuraAkihiko HirataAkira TakaradaAfter a dinosaur-like beast - awoken from undersea hibernation by atom bomb testing - ravages Tokyo, a scientist must decide if his similarly dangerous weapon should be used to destroy it.Could have done with less human drama, but the destruction is worth the wait. 8/10
- DirectorMamoru HosodaStarsKoji YakushoAoi MiyazakiShôta SometaniWhen a young orphaned boy living on the streets of Shibuya stumbles upon a fantastic world of beasts, he's taken in by a gruff warrior beast looking for an apprentice.A bear literally penetrated a teenage boy and gave him a warm feeling in the chest. Really, Mamoru Hosoda, really. 6/10
- DirectorDenis VilleneuveStarsEmily BluntJosh BrolinBenicio Del ToroAn idealistic FBI agent is enlisted by a government task force to aid in the escalating war against drugs at the border area between the U.S. and Mexico.Frustratingly lackluster. Score bumped up by an amazing soundtrack, tense atmosphere, and gorgeously grotesque cinematography. 7/10
- DirectorJoachim TrierStarsJesse EisenbergGabriel ByrneIsabelle HuppertThe fractious family of a father and his two sons confront their different feelings and memories of their deceased wife and mother, a famed war photographer.Features by far the strangest ending scene to a family drama that I have ever seen. 9/10
