Anesthesia

I wonder if the public at large is aware of the incredibly impactful films Tim Blake Nelson has been creating for the past several years. I realize he's just that funny looking actor-guy to many, but he has grown into an amazing writer and director in these last years. This new work of his is a deftly penned non-linear drama with full-bodied characters, a well woven plot, and an ending that socked me in the gut. A wonderful film, very potent and affecting. 4/5

Child of God

Holy shit, why didn't Scott Haze get an Oscar nod for this & Franco a directing one? Outstanding film, loved it. 5/5

As I Lay Dying

Franco's direction is a bit questionable but Nelson's performance is so perfect it doesn't really matter. 3.5/5

Eye of God

Tim Blake Nelson's fantastic indie is a slow-build of tension & drama with a powerful message. Well done. 3.5/5

Flypaper

This patently ridiculous comedic heist film is only watchable because of the decent acting. The plot, not so much. 2/5

The Amateurs

This is a funny, stylish comedy, but I have to say, with this cast I expected even better. Good, not great. 3.5/5
