2015/04/03

This week:[Boyhood, 2014, Richard Linklater]Much bally-hooed by the professional critical establishment, Linklater's unconventionally-produced coming-of-age drama now falls under the gimlet eye of the amateur critical establishment, as represented by, er, us.[Rocky, 1976, John Avildsen]I had a cat named Rocky. He died. Sorry to bring the mood down.[Mad Max 2, 1981, George Miller]He's not mad, he's just annoyed at himself forpacking only black clothing for a trip to the post-apocalyptic desert.

This week's fillums:[Force Majeure, 2014, Ruben Östlund]A skiing holiday with two young children sounds like a nightmare; add an avalanche, an act of cowardice, and a fracturing marriage and you've got two hours of squirm-inducing cinema. The perfect date film, in other words.[The Last Days of Disco, 1998, Whit Stillman]Classic, underseen comedy of manners set duringthe twilight of the glorious disco era.[Total Recall, 1990, Paul Verhoeven]Fun fact: the originalTotal RecallstarsBreaking Bad's Dean
