Five Shaolin Masters (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I purchased this film for nostalgic reasons and boy was it not the best choice. I am a fan of the Shaw Brothers so I knew what I was getting myself into. The storyline was good, but the film seemed to drag on at times and I have seem better choreography in some of the other SB films. It's a classic and a keeper, but just not their best.
Dark Habits (product link) Drama / Comedy As a fan of Pedro Almodovar, I have made it my mission to collect all of his earlier works to see his growth as a director. His movies still carry a great deal of shock factor to them, and this film is no exception. Overall I was only slightly disappointed with the film because it left me wanting more. This film may be for the die hard Almodovar fans only.
Graveyard Of Honor [2002] (product link) Crime / Action/Adventure This was a very dark and bloody film by Takashi Miike. As a cult director he always seems to hit the mark and gives the viewer more to focus on than just mindless violence and gore, which makes for a good watch. Great film!
The Eel (product link) Drama I have lived in Japan for several years, so I have a fondness for Japanese cinema. I loved this film for the fact that it was not uniquely Japanese. It tells a story that is universally accepting and appealing no matter where in the world you call home.
Mad Detective (product link) Drama / Crime [Possible Spoilers.]A very imaginative film with a great cast of characters. I really loved this film, but I had hoped for a happy ending for the "Mad Detective".
Oldboy (product link) Thriller / Action/Adventure A revenge film like no other! One film of a trilogy all about vengence, however this is the best one hands down.
