The Book With No Name

Posted by Notcot on Sep 27, 2010 in Steampunk

Average Rating: 4.0 / 5 (108 Reviews)

Detective Miles Jensen is called to the lawless town of Santa Mondega to investigate a spate of murders. This would all be quite ordinary in those rough streets, except that Jensen is the Chief Detective of Supernatural Investigations. The plot centres around a mysterious blue stone. This is a cinematic page-turner shot through with black humour.

The Boondock Saints

Posted by Notcot on Apr 28, 2010 in Cult Film

Average Rating: 4.0 / 5 (47 Reviews)

Amazon.co.uk Review
With the advent of satellite broadcasting resurrecting the art of the TV movie, films like the invigorating The Boondock Saints are becoming more frequent. Made for Sky, the movie eschews big-screen production values but is still good value for money. Although the story of two Irish-American brothers who set out on a believed divine mission to wipe out the worst of the criminal element of Boston at times seems like an imitation of the superb Dogma, both films were actually made in the same year. The film is not without its faults, notably the poor performances of Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus as the two brothers–both of whom adopt ludicrous Irish accents. Far better is Willem Dafoe, who steals the show as FBI agent Smecker, and the manic David Della Rocco. Still, The Boondock Saints is highly watchable and keeps the viewer interested throughout with a strong story, frequent black humour and arresting visuals. And there aren’t many places where you will come across Billy Connolly as a Mafia contract killer. –Phil Udell
