Seven

Seven. It’s not aging very well for me. Mid-grade Fincher is still pretty darn good.

Point Break

2014-07-102017-12-16 ~ Mark

Point Break. So damn good. Sensual west-coast crime cat-and-mouse rivalry a la Heat. I need to move to L.A.. I don’t know what it was, but that lawnmower scene had the most viscerally tense squirmy moments of anything I’ve seen since, maybe Compliance? I also liked Kathryn Bigelow’s The Hurt Locker, and loved Zero Dark Thirty.
