In an unusual twist I have no comments or scathing remarks about this year’s jury or prizes except of course the blatant cross-promotion of the opening movie so let us move on to the ranking as we all know that my reviews not always make it easy to tell how much I enjoyed the movies:
- Senzo ni naru
- Will you still love me tomorrow?
- Narco Cultura
- Before Midnight
- Yi Dai Zong Shi
- Sakura namiki no mankai no shita ni
- W imi?…
- Kujira no machi
- Kashi-ggot
- Mo sheng
- Sieniawka
Again, my criteria stay the same. This year we do have a cut-off. Can you guess where it is? Yes, directly above the last film of course. Also, I have nothing, absolutely nothing bad to say about the first place and any issues in the following three are not worth mentioning. The next three after that were also hard to rank and the only really big gap in enjoyment really is between the last two. Essentially it has been a very condensed experience this year. Thank you for your time, I shall now give back the reigns to our Queen and hope I inspired a new item or two on your watchlists.
I totally want to see 1-7 and have a perverse interest in “Kashi-ggot”, but ultimately I don’t really want to see that movie, I just want to read a synopsis, ha ha ha.
