Unknown

Unknown was a good film; however, I could not help thinking that I have seen this film before. Oh, yeah! I got it! If you change the time to the future, change the planet to Mars, and make the main actor Arnold Schwarzenegger, you have the movie Total Recall.

Although the film is not as action packed as Total Recall, there is more than enough intrigue and drama to keep you entertained. Therefore, there is no need for you to despair.

Recommendation: Go see this movie in the theater or take it home as your 1st DVD pick.

Starring: Liam Neeson, Diane Kruger, January Jones, Aidan Quinn, Bruno Ganz, Frank Langella

Anatomie de L'Enfer

I do not think I was the intended audience for this film. In fact, I should have saved myself some time and taken heed to the film’s title, Anatomy of Hell (translation). If there was some artistic value in the film I think I missed it. It just seemed like a high budget adult film (pornography).

Recommendation: If you are inclined to watch such films, take Anatomie de L'Enfer home as your 3rd DVD pick.

Starring: Amira Casar, Rocco Siffredi, Alexandre Belin, Manuel Taglang, Jacques Monge, Catherine Breillat

Note: This film is in French.
