Saw (2004, R)
The old addage "sequels will never ruin the original" doesn't hold true here. While I can still see how great it is, the subsequent Saw films take away the power Jigsaw has. This horror film has a moral to it and it doesn't tell it through haplessly slaughering teens who drink. When you get down to it, this film is great. Any naysayers clearly miss the point or get wrapped up in the copycat films made after it (which don't have a point). Tobin Bell triumphs as Jigsaw in a brilliant mind game. |

Sin City (2005, R)
Perfect down to the most subtle components. Never did it betray its source material and in this day and age that is a true feat. The film is also a good example of an appropriate use of CG effects mixed with make up effects. Neither overshadows the other. Overall this is a gloriously gritty translation of Frank Miller's art. |

Dick Tracy (1990, PG)
The ensemble cast compliments the style director Beatty brought from the strip. It's really interesting how this movie works as the end of a trilogy of stories (told in comic book form). Beatty had a great deal of material they could have adapted, but decided to begin with the end. At any rate, it's an underrated film that deserves a second chance at greatness. |
