Based on a manga, this Hongkong film has. Altogether, these make which is the status quo of this piece of work. The director has lots of guts (pun intended) to make this film works in an unconventional way (not necessarily a good thing). Reminisce of Prison on Fire, the movie is set in a not-so-distant future where prison has become a privatized business and anything goes inside the facility. By anything, I mean ANYTHING. Inmates getting tortured for not rolling out red carpet properly or asking for more food, growing poppy fields, killing innocent bystanders (dog included). No one’s spared, everyone’s get a can of ass-whooping in the end, except of course Riki-Oh. With all these insanities, one thing for sure, you can’t kill Ricky. Though lacking in emotions, short of super power this guy is not.
It’s an adaptation which stays very close to the actual illustrated version. Hence, plot comes across as wacky and has many seemingly random characters. .
A short animated film that debuted itself in the beginning of 2012, is a film by that puts the ordinary in the spotlight. Apparently (From reading this Wikipedia page) inspired by Doyon’s childhood in Quebec, the short revolves around a particular sunday a young boy experiences. . That is the basic premise of the film, and the quirks presented via Doyon’s hand-drawn animation gives this short a very charming feel to it. Watch out for the behaviors of humans and animals in this film, the exaggerated size and speed of certain objects, and the fantasy elements Dimanche contain. A very charming short.
is about a football-obsessed altar boy who has a second-chance to atone after knocking over the priest during mass. What unravels is every moment of subtle and not-so-subtle comedy. Carrying a name like Damien Lynch only heightens the boy’s predicament. That flash where Father O’Toole passes Quinn and the moment when pre-mass encouragement was comparable to a football pep talk were examples of this film’s sheer brilliance. No wonder it was this year.
is one that will always intrigue me no matter how many time it is told. This relatively new musical genre has empowered the community it was born out of and has made itself a global culture. An aspect of hiphop that has become its most popular is the MC, and as a man who loves the artform Ice T has made it his mission to discover the many different perspective in hiphop. As you can probably tell from the image above, Ice T has many notable guests ranging from the architects, innovators, to the current torch-bearers.
Now, the story of hiphop has been told many times and any fan of the genre will probably have a general idea of its origin. What makes so special is due to the plethora of guests, the film manages to show that hiphop music is filled with a wide-range of opinions and perspectives. We see how Nas considers rebellious because it goes against what is considered “proper”, how Rakim and Chuck D are very methodical in writing rhymes, or how spiritual the music seems to be for Doug E. Fresh. Other than the guests the film’s structure is what to be expected (how it began, why hiphop is important, where it is going) and Ice T makes for a gracious host.
