Lethal Force 2000 (2002)

This film is a splendid mix of mediums, but its strength lies in its simplicity and beautiful message of closeness.

Intergenerational friendships and community can be so powerful, and this was a great example.

This powerful story shines with poetic animation, an exploration of deeper truths, and the protagonist's complex search for identity.

One of THE most frustrating trends in the mainstream film industry over the last several decades has been the onset of comedy efforts that seem SO focused on being crude and/or gross-out in all ways possible. That, at least for me, makes them no longer funny.

It surely isn't for everybody and could certainly offend some folks, but Troll Hunter takes a different approach to representing religion in a film.

Stylish, slow, and somewhat standoffish, Human Resource examines corporate life from the perspective of a female HR employee as she interviews job candidates while also deciding whether to keep her newly discovered pregnancy.
