Crank (2006)
Should have been called KRAP
Where to begin?
Nothing fun about this one. Wish I had my 90 minutes back. Jokes were bad, and a potentially career ending performance by Amy Smart. Can't blame her though, crank is what I'm guessing the directors (or should I say camera operators) were doing when they made this. Yikes, a mess.
Continuity was atrocious, huge story holes, stereotypes on top of worse stereotypes. Originality is nil. Please, please put the filmmakers in movie jail. It's scary that these folks are actually working on a sequel. I'll tell you everything you need to know about this movie in 1 sentence.
It's as if you did crystal meth then watched DOA, racial expletives, bad sound effects, derivative, panic, hack, montage, seen-it, bang-bang-expletive, explosion, wish I were "snatch", explosion, expletive, derivative, end.
È pericoloso sporgersi (1993)
Also titled "Sundays On Leave", A great movie!
I saw this film in 1993 at the San Francisco International Film Festival. It's a rare gem. It was entitled in english "Sundays On Leave". I have never heard of anyone else even seeing this film, as there were only 7 of us in the theater at the San Francisco screening. It's too bad films like this get lost and American and International audiences don't get exposed to them. I have searched through various sources to find a copy of this film in any format, without any luck.
The style to film is similar to Jim Jarmusch's "Night On Earth" (and equal in quality!) It does however, has a much more serious tone. If you should get the chance to see this film, by all means, do! If you know where to find a copy of this wonderful movie, please drop me an email.
