Film What was the last movie you watched? Part 2

[Milk Tray Guy]

Jack's Back (1988)

James Spader stars as twin brothers, one of whom is trying to clear the other who he believes has been framed for a series of Los Angeles murders exactly mimicking those of Jack the Ripper (can't give any more detail - it would spoil the first half-hour). It's very '80s', both in look and soundtrack; but it's stylish and the performances are good - especially Spader, and Robert Picardo as a consultant psychologist assisting the police. Nice to see Chris Mulkey (Twin Peaks) as one of the investigating detectives. Cynthia Gibb is sadly underwhelming as a work colleague of one 'Spader', and love interest of the other. Producer Cassian Elwes cameos as a pimp (and looks like he's having fun). Not bad (although it does have the feel of a TV movie). 6/10

This movie was not at all what I was expecting. And I mean that in the best way possible! David Harbour is fantastic!
8.5/10

 

[Batgirl0202]

8/10

I assumed this would be Jessica Bourne and instead I got an intense character study.

Highly recommended.

The Boy and the Heron

Miyazaki's darkest film in quite some time. Would be a fantastic send-off for him but I doubt that old crank is going to retire anytime soon.

9/10

Dream Scenario

Darkly comedic premise that's executed to its fullest, with a solid Cage performance at the heart of it.
