I have been reviewing films all my life, semi-professionally in the past and for the past 10 or 12 years on imdb and more recently in letterboxd and facebook. The idea of this blog is to get as many of those reviews gathered together in one place. I have had a great deal of support and encouragement from a lot of people throughout the world and I hope that continues. Now for the ratings. **** = not to be missed. *** = highly recommended. ** = recommended. * = of interest and no stars = avoid..

WEREWOLF no stars
The sad, boring lives of a couple of methadone users in a small,
Canadian town. Ashley McKenzie's film "Werewolf" makes few concessions
to its audience; almost nothing happens and McKenzie films it in a flat,
dull style in muted, washed-out colours that mirrors the life of its
protagonists, a spaced-out Andrew Gillis and a zombie-like, almost
silent Bhreagh MacNeil who act as if they're making it up as they go
along. This is a bleak and not very likeable picture but at 80 minutes
at least it's mercifully short though while you're watching it you might
think it will go on forever.
