Choice of the Week

Bull Durham [Criterion Collection]

  Bull Durham What is it? A love The triangle is played on a baseball background. Why see it? The filmography of Ron Shelton ( White Men Can not Jump ) is no stranger to sports films, so a twinning with Kevin Costner ( Tin Cup ) was an obvious collision. Fortunately, the end result is one of their best as it unleashes a trio of huge characters dissecting sports, love and the English language. Costner is joined by Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon, and their varied personalities make for a fuel and hilarious trio. The dialogue is loaded and to quote, the drama is compelling, and Criterion's new Blu-ray gives him the home he deserves with a beautiful image and a wealth of extras.

The Best

] Detective Bureau 2-3: Go to Hell Bastards! [Arrow Video]

  Detective Bureau What is it? A detective looking for stolen weapons finds a gang war instead.

Why see him? Director Seijun Suzuki ( Tokyo Drifter Branded to Kill ) is no stranger to the stories of bitter police and murderous gangsters, and although his latest films have attracted more than Beware, there is a lot to appreciate in this early 60's. Yakuza gangs the cops who hate them. Jo Shishido takes the lead, and he offers a compelling performance as a man against all this. A bloodbath, black laughter and a harsh comment on the explosion of greed and personal interest of Japan after the war. It's a good time, however, I promise.

A sheep monster terrorises a rural community, finally.

Why see it? The main feature here is one of those who are so bad it's kind of engaging movies, and there's a lot of fun in it, from "acting" to not so special effects, the movie is a mess that always manages to entertain, but for me the main reason for this edition is the inclusion of A bonus feature – The Legend of Bigfoot – scanned in 2K and presented for your viewing pleasure. Filmed as a documentary, the film is more like a gonzo sequel to A Christmas Story than the narrator bears the same mood, tone and ease of excitement that he tells of his adventures in the search for Bigfoot. It's a ridiculous fun that also includes nature-guaranteed images to leave you stressed and anxious. Seriously, the squirrel sequence.

Women Who Kill

  Women Who Kill What is it? Two Ex And Present Truthful Podcasters Suspect A New Love To Be A Killer

Discrete comedies are a form of art that too few people appreciate, let alone can offer, but for smart, funny and engaging indies fans it's a good time. The two women at the base find their interest in pop culture invading their lives, and the film's satirical look at the engagement and relationships translates well into increasing themes of suspense and possible danger. It's finally a strong character piece under the guise of a comedy, but no matter how you frame it, the smiles come naturally.

The Rest

211

What is it? A bank robbery goes wrong, as they do so often

Why see it? Nicolas Cage's filmography of all time rose from the relative highs of Mandy to boring as dirt hollows of Looking Glbad and this action / drama is somewhere in between (but closer to the lower part). Cage plays a veteran cop who lies in the middle of a stalemate with bank robbers. The bullets fly, people die and the family drama is forced to the front of it all. It's something to do for 85 minutes.

[Blu-ray/DVD extras: None?]

Future World

  Future World What is it? James Franco is a bad man during the later apocalypse

Why see him? The Desert of Movies as The Road Warrior has become an easy choice for less talented filmmakers with smaller budgets, and this desert duet is the latest entry in the genre. The story sees a young man leaving his refuge to venture into the most dangerous wasteland where he finds trouble at the hands of James Franco, Milla Jovovich, and others. The whole thing is like a movie made by 12-year-old boys who play badbots and strippers alongside the "cool" Franco's rebel gangs. Everything else could fail if the action excited, but it's as lukewarm as the rest of that failed.

Press Pete

  Press Pete What is it? A teenager finds a goal in a horse destined for death

Why see him? The latest film by Andrew Haigh ( 45 Years ) follows the daily life of a teenager who finds solace in solitary activities. His family life is messy, so he runs, and when he finds work for a horse owner (Steve Buscemi), he finds a friend in a horse to be shot. It is a methodical methodical tale of methodical rhythm that offers good performances (including the smallest turns of Chloë Sevigny and Amy Seimetz)

A quiet place

  A quiet place What is it? Survive after sound-sensitive monsters decimate the population

Why see it? John Krasinski's pbadage to horror is a story of a family trying to stay together, and there is much to appreciate (Krasinski, Emily Blunt) in the design of the creature at the construction of the world. I am in the minority, however, not loving it like a horror movie. The premise – creatures find and kill on the basis of sounds so people have to be silent – leave very stupid behaviors on the table. (Seriously, why do not you live at the waterfall?) And for a movie with this title and this plot, it's terribly dependent on music / sound stingers to scare you.
