Harakiri Squad (2024) Fantaspoa 2024

This film is a musical samurai comedy riff on the DC comics Suicide Squad about a group of thieves who are kept in a poisoned state by a the government in order to get them to do jobs for them. As long as they do the jobs they get the antidote to the poison. They end up hooking up with a young man who is looking to rescue his sister from a cult. The cult is headed by a demon and it is the target of the Harakiri Squad.

This film is a blast. Back in the Subway Cinema days of the New York Asian Film Festival this would have been one of the big films of the festival because it's wild and crazy and has a glorious sense of fun. This is a film that is going to riff on the Suicide Squad (one character's name is Suicide Squid), musicals, samurai films, possession films and a few other things, and do it with a big smile on it's face.

It's also going to give us some really good action sequences. Sure the film is a bit low budget, but it really doesn't matter since the fillmmakers use that to their advantage and have things take unexpected turns.

The handful of musical numbers aren't bad. While some seem just dropped in out of left field, most have a place in the story (kind of). They are also not bad as musical songs go, and while probably not destined to live on outside the film, they still are catchy enough not to annoy.

While the last third or so of the film gets a bit lost as things swing around for the final battle, the film still remains compelling, largely because we truly like the characters and care about them. I for one would love to see a sequel or two down the road.

Highly recommended for anyone who loves a good time HARAKIRI SQUAD just premiered at Fanaspoa

Patrick Meaney's wonderful THE BRINK OF (2022) has hit VOD - A review of the film and interview with the director and star.

"He's probably better for you than me"

"But I'm not better for him"

 Lena and James are the band The Brink Of...  As they were ending a six month tour and right after an influencer's tweets put them on the radar of the world at large, they disappear. As the film begins the duo is back and are on a radio show explaining what happened.

If you know director Patrick Meaney you will think either of his comic work both as a documenary filmmaker (he's profiled Neil Gaiman, Grant Morrison and Chris Claremont) or as a writer, or you may know him as the director of the horror film HOUSE OF DEMONS. He would not be someone you instantly think of as a director of a sweet musical romance, but with THE BRINK OF.... he makes  romance films his own.

Beautifully acted and possessing a kick ass group of songs THE BRINK OF... soars. Director Meaney has fashioned a heartfelt and moving film. Its a film that had me misty at the end, not because it manipulated me but because it has given us a couple of people we can really root for. We like them  from frame one and are willing to go anywhere with them.

What I love is that in fashioning a love story Meaney has taken the romantic formula and used its tropes against us. I'm going to be honest and say there was a time when I just liked the film. The film was doing everything it was supposed to and hitting all the points exactly right but it didn't seem to be going the extra mile. It was technically great but it didn't seem to have all the emotion wired up to the power box... but at a perfectly placed moment there is scene where the script clicks and you realize that while we were distracted with the songs and other things Meaney was laying in the heavy gauge wire so when the big moment comes so do the the tears (and big yelp of joy which scared the neighbors). Everything that seemed to be throwaways came crashing it with a weight we never suspected. Simply put THE BRINK OF... does what few films do these days and gets the emotion and love of the audience by earning it and not manipulating us. 

Nicolette Norgaard and Tim Hoffman kick it out of the park. They make us believe that they coud be a  couple everyone knows are destined for each other but who refuse to see it. Indeed they manage to make that notion a perfectly played running gag. The pair also wrote their own songs and the emotion in them make the film even more special. Frankly while Patrick Meaney may have created the framework for the story, Norgaard and Hoffman's music, and their performances give the film life.

This film blew me away. Not just because I was sent the film totally blind and had no idea what it was at all, but because the film is just so damn good.

You must see this film because it will make you feel good.

Look for more on the film and an interview with director Patrick Meaney  and Nicolette Norgaard below

Brief thoughts on CAT CALL (2023) Fantaspoa 2024

Fani can't fall in love. Imagining the death of every man she meets she won't get involved with anyone. However, when she meets her new neighbor, she begins a relationship with his cat since she can hear him talk.

This is an amusing little romcom. Echoing the off kiltered flights of fantasy in things like AMELIE or WONDERFALLS this is a film that walks its own path. Additionally, like those works this is a film that is not going to click with everyone. That's perfectly fine since those who connect with the film are going to find a new favorite film. 

I had a good time.

Definitely worth a look for anyone who likes their romcoms quirky.

Puffin Rock and the New Friends (2023) hits streaming tomorrow

Feature film of the Cartoon Saloon TV series  has more adventures with the various characters from the series and it introduces a number of new friends including an otter.

This is a sweet little film. While not as heavy as the studio’s earlier films, this film is an absolute breezy delight. I smiled from start to finish. What I really loved was that the film has some real suspense. The storm sequence is tense. Had this not been part of a continuing TV series I would have been frightened that someone was going to die.

While clearly geared for small people it works just as well for the big ones as well.

PHOTOGRAPHIC JUSTICE: THE CORKY LEE STORY (2022) opens Friday

 

Wonderful portrait of the late great photographer Corky Lee. Lee was a native New Yorker who made a career of photographing the Asian experience in America and New York. Lee's aim was to "take the pictures that should be in out history books".  

He was everywhere in New York covering events no one else did and in ways that no one else could.  Because he was everywhere and people knew him Lee managed to get shots that changed lives. As recounted in the film his photos changed the accounts if the police who couldn't lie about what there was photographic evidence for.,

This is magnificent film. Its a wonderful look at a man and his work and beautiful explanation of why Lee matters.

Highly recommended.

KAMAY (2024) Vision Du Réel

 

Kamay is the name of a stubborn grass that grows in the middle of Afghanistan.  It is a symbol for the people who live there who refuse to give up and bow to authorities. It is a representation of the family of a girl named Zahra who killed herself after a run in with a teacher who was the dean of her school.

KAMAY the film is the story of Zahra’s family, who a year after her death are trying to not only get justice for her daughter but just get her possessions back from the authorities on Kabul.

This is a pastoral film that moves at the speed of life. It is a film where we watch the family as they work around their home, just trying to live their lives, while at the same time trying to connect with the people working for justice in Kabul. We also follow the family as they make the days long car ride trips into the city, through the mountains, the snow, and assorted other dangers.

KAMAY is a very moving film. It is a film perfectly designed to make us feel what the people on the screen are feeling. A brilliant use of pacing and minimal camera movement we feel as though we are moving through life with the family.  We feel the weight of their lives in ways that most films don’t give us. I was touched.

That said the pace of the film is very slow.  As I said it moves at the speed of life. If you either don’t like that or can’t click with it this is going to be a tough slog. I think what we see and what we experience is worth the trip, but that may not work for you.

Ultimately KAMAY is magnificent film that you should see, especially if you can see it on the big screen where you can fall into the images.

Nightcap 4/14/23 I hate jump scares*, Drive in season approaches.

One of the top 3 loudest audience screams was at this moment and it wasn't a jump scare

I got into a couple of discussions about jump scares in horror films. It seems many people think that is what horror is all about. Clearly they are watching the wrong sort of horror films.

In trying to explain my position to the people on line  I came to realize that most horror filmmakers today just build films that simply are rollercoasters that peak in a series of jump scares.  In these films there is no real narrative tension, there is just waiting until someone jumps out and says "BOO" at maximum volume. I have nothing against jump scares, I mean an occasional one is fine but I prefer the dread and unease that a good horror film builds to being scared because the sound designer turns the volume up. 

So many of the smaller horror films are just jump scares and no real terror.  It's a series  wind up and release cycles, nothing that you take home with you. I think part of the reason for this is that so many people today learned what horror is by watching slasher films. Things like Friday the 13th and the films that copied those films are just a series sequences of waiting for Jason to jump out. There is no real fun in that after a point, just waiting for the new cool way to kill someone (An aside: the other crappy horror trend is films like the later Nightmare on Elm Street and Saw films where the horror isn't from the story but simply from the horror of the new deus ex machina death. However that is another essay for another time.)

To me the real horror is film where a mood is created, where jump scares are at a minimum and the shrieks are from unexpected turns like in The Exorcist (say the head spinning around), Insidious (the black demon just standing in the background-see above), Psycho (Norman's mother's face over his), Brooklyn 45 (when the locket moves) or in a sudden or unexpected turn that changes things say in Silence of the Lambs (Hannibal's escape), or The Wailing (where the film flips in the final half hour). Then there are films like Inerasable, which creates a horrible mood that builds to the end and is never released (I didn't sleep the night I saw it). 

Within the films that aren't just jump scare factories we get interesting discussions of society and humanity. We get examinations of who we are and where we are going in ways that normal films can't explore. I mean this is why horror novels like Frankenstein and Dracula and Dr Jekyll or Dorian Gray still resonate after centuries have passed or in films why Larry Talbot still breaks our hearts and John Carpenter's the Thing is finding bigger audiences every year.

I doubt that many films that are just jump scares or an excuse for cool effects will last.

I may be a film writer and a member of a critics group but I am going to be leaving some films off my dance card.

I will not be seeing the new Joker film because I disliked the original film so much.

I will not be seeing SPEAK NO EVIL because as good as the original film is I never want to go to that dark place again- and if this film isn’t good I will be arguing that its not as good as the original.

I am not running out to see CIVIL WAR because I am up and down on Alex Garland’s films and because his lack of clear reasoning is going to make me crazy.

More New Releases this week, more ND NF films and finally Fantaspoa films.

*-most of the time

Blind Cop2 (2023) Fantaspoa 2024

Send up of 1980's macho action films, this is a film that hots every expected note and a few you you never considered in the story of a blind cop named Blind Cop, who hunts down the leaders of the crimnal organization in his city. Teaming up with green young officer he unleashes mayhem everywhere he goes,

How you react to this film will be determined by where you see it. If you see it in a theater full of people you are going to have a better time than if you see this home alone. That's not a knock, but more a statement that that the over the top nature of the film will click better when you have an audience talking to the screen and each other. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad movie,  it just one that play better the more people can goof along with it.

The film is funnier is you know what it's riffing. If you grew up or spent all your adult life watching the endless low budget action films from Cannon, New World, Dimension or where ever then you are going to get even more out of the film because there is a good chance you many be able to name the movies that are being spoofed.

I had a grand time watching this film, laughing at each ridiculous turn... that wasn't so ridiculous because a few years back a similar sequence was played largely straight when Bronson, Eastwood or Segal did it straight. (Actually this would have been a good film if it had been played straight)

BLIND COP 2 is a blast and highly recommended when it plays at Fantaspoa. (And no, there is no BLIND COP)

IRENA’S VOW (2024) is a Fathom event

Sophie Nélisse stars as Irene Gut Opdyke, who during the second world war decided that she had to do something, so when she learned that the ghetto was going to be leveled she decided to hide as many Jews as possible in the safest place she could think of…the basement of the home of the Nazi officer for whom she was working.

This is a good war time bio/thriller. Telling a tale most of us haven’t heard of and fewer of us wouldn’t believe if it wasn’t true, IRENA’S VOW connects us to the past by telling us a really compelling tale.  That the story of the rescue is only part of the story is what makes this film something worth seeing.

If I was to say that there is any flaw in the film it’s in the casting of Sophie Nélisse in the lead. While perfectly adequate in the role she never changes her expression through almost the entire film. From first shot to almost the last she wears the look of a wounded deer in the headlights. While on some level it is understandable, it also makes her less like a person and more like a mannequin. It kept me disconnected from the film (though I was connected to the story). It’s not fatal but it kept me from being as deeply moved as I might have been.

Homicide New York(2024)

Five part Netflix series that is a sort of a documentary series of Law And Order.  Focusing on a group of NYC detectives, an Assistant District Attorney and  a medical investigator as they relate some of their cases. 

This is a super series. Once you get past the weak first episode the series is something that is going to make you binge it all in one series.  It took me two days to watch the first episode and when I was done I ended up streaming the rest in one night. This is great stuff.

Covering some big cases from the last few decades the series covers a grop of teens who killed a man in Central part, s serial killer/rapist in Harlem, a killing over the Carnegie Deli and two others. They are all cases you've heard about and this is a look behind the curtain.The best part of the series is we see the toll the cases take on the good guys. We see how they become involved and how t becomes too much and walk away. Having a friend who was a prosecutor who took her own life because the voices never left her  Dealing with the cost was something we don't see.

I loved this series and I've been recommending it.

I hope there is going to be more.

RAIN (2023) Miami Film Festival 2024

If you want to see the first film of the next director from Mexico to win an Oscar the see Rodrigo García Saiz's RAIN which is playing at the Miami Film Festival. Looking and feeling like the work of a seasoned director, the film has the assured hand that rivals the work of Alejandro González Iñárritu, Alfonso Cuarón, and Guillermo del Toro.

I know that sets up impossible expectations but take into account the way the film makes you feel and if you really watch how the film is crafted you will see that Rodrigo García Saiz is going to do great things.

The film is six interconnected stories all taking place over a rain soaked 24 hours. It begins in the rain when cab driver picks up a rider who gives him his own address as a destination. From there we move between the various stories which bring us into the lives of various people who are trying to get past an unexpected turn in their lives. 

I was moved. 

While some of the stories are not as perfect as others, all of them hold us tight in their grip. This is due to craft of filmmakers being directed by  Saiz, but also a cast that is among the best ensemble  casts of the last ten years.  This is as good as casting can get. Everyone nails  their role and you can feel their lives bleeding off the screen.

When the film was done I started to reach out to some of my friends. I had to get more eyes on this film because there is something special here.

You need to see this.

Intercepted (2023) NDNF 2024

The weight of what we see and hear in INTERCEPTED will crush you. While the film is not graphic in a typical war documentary, the weight of the words will pulverize your soul.

The film is footage of Ukraine and the Ukrainian people after the Russian invasion. We watch as they go through their daily routines in a country at war. Yes, we see the destruction, but also, we see children playing, the people repairing damage, farming, driving. Everything that people do in peaceful time. Over the images we listen to the intercepted cellphone calls that Russian soldiers made to their loved ones. They speak of the terrible things that they have done and experienced in the war. We also listen to them have very human conversations about their lives as well.

The mix of life and death is jarring. At first it kind of seems a clever game, and then the enormity of what we are seeing and hearing begins to hit home and root itself in our souls. The unseen violence begins to carve us up. The sadness that it brings weighs us down. You will become confused as you realized that one group of humans sees another as less.

I did not expect my ass to be kicked this badly.

In an age when we are flooded with films on Ukraine to the point that many blend together, INTERCEPTED stands out and reveals itself to be one of the best films on the war and the tragedy it has brought.

Recommended.

A Journey in Spring (2023) NDNF 2023

An older couple go through out their day. She works, he repairs the sink at home. When she passes away, he tells no one and remembers their past.

This is a memory play where everything is told in the physical actions rather than the words. Dialog is at a minimum, largely in the flashback memories, so what we are clued into the feelings and emotions is all through how the characters move. Any dialog ends up being commentary on the emotions of the largely wordless now sequences. (Though at the end we realize that everything but the beginning and end is a memory)

This is a beautiful looking and very deliberate film which you will either love or hate depending on your feelings toward the pacing and reflective nature of the film. This is where not a lot happens even though a lot of emotion is kicked up as one man contemplates his relationship to his wife. For some this is going to be manna from heaven and for others this is going to be close to watching paint dry. This is best described at moving at the speed of life.

For me the film was a mixed viewing experience. While I was okay with the pacing, my feelings for the film dissipated toward the conclusion. I say this because there was this moment toward the end where I realized that this was not going to have a big pay off. Emotionally there isn't enough here.

The problem is that the film plays as if it's a feature version of a short story. Short stories, and short films, have a rhythm all their own. Because of their brevity they can  show us moments, or pieces of a story, or even have endings that leave us hanging. Watching A JOURNEY IN SPRING I frequently could hear the voice of a short story narrator telling us the story. The ending, when it came could have been dead on perfect for a film a third of the film's length but not for something running 90 minutes.

Mirroring a short story in a feature can work, Ryusuke Hamaguchi's EVIL DOES NOT EXIST is a cinematic short story in feature form and it works with devastating power. However it takes more than simply stretching  a story to feature length.

While there is much to love in the film, the look and performances, A JOURNEY IN SPRING is a film best seen by an audience who can connect to it's deliberate pacing.

MEEZAN (SCALE) (2023) NDNF 2024

Shahab Mihandoust’s portrait of the fishing industry in Iran’s Khuzestan province is a stunner. A three part tale the film follows what happens on the boats, on the wharf where they doc ans in the processing lpant where the fish ends up.

This film is a visual and audio stunner. I described the film as one of the most "you are there" films I've ever run across. Mihandoust’s puts us in the thick of things, do so in a way that doesn't make us just an observer but a participant. 

As for the audio, it's as environmentally perfect as they come. What makes the film so special is that we don't have the absolute pinpoint perfection of most films, you know where every sound is perfectly placed and so it creates an unreal world. Here instead is soundtrack that puts us in a place. I mention this because when I asked about getting access to the film I received an email from Mr. Mihandoust who told me if I did not see the film in a cinema I absolutely must wear headphones. He was dead on right. Never have I ever experienced a place via audio quite like this. I actually replayed several sections of the film just so I could close my eyes and really take in the sound. This needs to be in the Oscar race for best sound design.

Technical achievements aside the film is magnificent. If documentaries are supposed to show us things we never knew, this film does it in spades. Sure I've seen films, both documentary and narrative on fishing, but never have I understood how it all fits together. Additionally this is a film that really puts s into the lives of everyone on screen.

This is one of the best films at this year's New Director's New Films and one of the most amazing films I've seen in 2024.

Go see this big and loud and be amazed.

Damaged (2024)

When the police in Scotland begin to find bodies that match up with an uncaught serial killer, they call in the cop (Samuel L Jackson) who knows the work of the killer better than anyone.

DAMAGED lost me from the opening minutes. The film opens with a woman going home. She enters her house and does what she does. There is a knock at the door. She goes to the door LOOKS OUT THE PEEP HOLE AND THEN OPENS THE DOOR. At this point a serial killer pushes his way int her house. He is dressed all in black. Has a mask, a hood, a cape. Everything seems to be made of a rain coat like material...andhe kills her. WHY DID SHE OPEN THE DOOR? She saw a scary guy out there and she OPENED HER DOOR.

WHY?

AT that point the film lost me as I knew nothing was going to make sense. And from that point nothing does, as the film shows us things happening at the same time that couldn't be at the same time, we glimpse of the killer behind the mask at one point - except when it's revealed it couldn't be that person.

I was having a running commentary through the film that had be saying "wait what?" every couple of minutes. I then replayed the sequence and found out it didn't match up with what we saw earlier. Didn't anyone realize that this film makes no sense? 

Didn't anyone care?

I don't know if the cast and crew knew that this film is such a turkey. I don't think they did since you can't make a film that is top of the mountain if you know the story is this nonsensical. I say this because the film looks great, the score is wonderful, and the cast is all at the top of their game. If you just watch the film without following the plot it's creepy and tense. This film rocks---until you start to put the pieces together and you realize there is nothing there.

Great cast or no this is not really worth your time.

What a disappointment

Riddle Of Fire (2023) on VOD April 12

 

When their sick mother asks her kids to run out and get her favorite pie, the kids are set on a grand adventure involving poachers, witches, a huntsman and a fairy.

This twee family film is one of a growing genre of films where adults with best intentions make films that echo the films of their childhood, like GOONIES, KENNY & CO,  MONSTER SQUAD but are so saccharine and safe that they never really engage. The problem is not so much what happens, rather it’s in the feel of the film, which is so polished that there is never any danger or connection to reality.

Its that polished sheen that does in RIDDLE IF FIRE. Looking and like a fancy picture book from the 1970’s but with modern items such as paintball guns and cellphones. While there is nothing wrong with the script or the cast, director Weston Razooli makes the mistake shooting the film entirely with the storybook esthetic, people stand so they can be seen by the camera and not how they would in real life.  There is never any real sense of danger, there is no grit, just a sheen of a false nostalgia. In GOONIES or KENNY & CO or even MONSTER SQUAD there was an edge. There was a danger to the characters (hence the reason the ending of MONSTER SQUAD is so bittersweet) that made us lean in and worry about whether they will be alright or not. We never feel that in RIDDLE OF FIRE. We know from the opening minutes, that life is a story and it’s all going to be okay. The stakes are so low that we know the lids are going to skate. There is nothing wrong with that assuming that the filmmakers can give us at least one moment of uncertainty or one moment where it was about more than pie, but it never happens.

Forgive me for kvetching, but so much in RIDDLE OF FIRE that is really good that the fact it never quite makes it compelling disappoints. This should be a classic (there is classic stuff here) not just okay.’

Is it worth seeing?

Now that it’s streaming yes.

Brief thoughts on Malu (2023) NDNF 2024

Yara de Novaes stars as an actress who is constantly at war with the world.  Living with her religious mother, she is headed for an uncertain future. And now her daughter has returned from France.

The reason to see this film is Novaes. Giving one of the best performances you will see all year (and destined to be ignored by Oscar) this is a performance that is going to haunt you. Portraying a character who is not entirely likable Novaes gives us someone who is unforgettable. 

See this for Novaes because she is just that good.

DREAMING AND DYING (2023) NDNF 2024

After years apart three school friends meet and consider their lives and relationships. 

Odd off kilter and magic realist drama  is an art house film full of long silence, meaningful sighs and sad looks. It is a film that is full of self importance and unspoken meaning.

This film didn't really work for me. From the opening image of a woman sitting by a statue of a hand this film felt off. It wanted me to know it was going to be about something. However as time went on I never clicked with it. In large part this was due to my not understanding why these three were together for any length of time. Yes. there are reasons, but at the same time there wasn't enough to propel even a 75 minute film.

This film missed for me.

All You Need Is Death (2023)

Aleks and Anna travel across Ireland collecting old songs which they then sell to various collectors for a price. One night they happen upon a long forgotten love song. It's a song of consuming love that has been passed down orally to all of the women in a certain family. The woman who knows the song will sing it for Anna on the condition that Aleks wait outside and that she does not record the song or write it down once she's heard it.  Unfortunately Anna records the song and then begins to try and decipher what it means....

This is not a film of monsters and jump scares. This is a film of mood and building Dread. This is a film that strives to create a feeling of doom.

I am mixed regarding writer/director/producer Paul Duane’s ALL YOU NEED IS DEATH. This is a film with one hell of a story and script  that feels undercut by the way it's shot. perfectly framed  with people seemingly placed in the frame so they are more often then not facing the camera instead of each other the film feels incredibly slick. It feels like it's staged at times and not life. There is a perfection to the images that is a bit too perfect for the story being told. The perfection of the images and the staging of some sequences kept me out of the film and kept the unease to a minimum. 

But it's not the fault of script or the cast. The cast is very good and the script is first rate. The script chills, and creates an oppressive atmosphere, while the cast sell what is happening.

If I sound like I dislike the film, I'm sorry. I actually love most of the film. I love enough of the film that I wish the film was shot better.

My reservation aside ALL YOU NEED IS DEATH is worth a look.

Fantaspoa Starts This Week

The awesome Fantaspoa starts this week and we are blessed. 

One of the great festivals anywhere in the world it is a festival where you know that no matter what they are screening it's worth your time. The problem is that they program so many films you simply can't see them all....at least within the time of the festival without cloning yourself several times over.

I love this festival with all my heart. Everyone asks me why don't you travel to go to festivals like Toronto or Berlin or Cannes- and my answer is I can't go to those festivals until I go to Fantaspoa.  I have to go to this festival first because I know that when I get there I will be glad I saw every film I see. No film festival should be that good...but it is.

Trust me.

As this posts I am getting ready to wade into the films. I am not going to Porto Alegre, I couldn't get off from the day job, however I have been granted access to a bunch of the films so reviews  will be coming when the embargoes lift. So keep an eye on Unseen Films.

However because in addition to World Premiering tons of great films, they also run the best films from other festivals, as such  I can provide you with a head start on some of the great films playing. Here are links to reviews of 14 films I've previously reviewed.
