Swingers
andy gives it a: ****
  • A group of white-boys go bar hopping in LA.
  • Good performances all around.
  • The best part of the movie is either that dance sequence, or a conversation after an encounter with the "House of Pain" group.
  • A mildly entertaining movie, and great dialogue, but the plot is lacking and nothing really pulls you in.




A Clockwork Orange
andy gives it a: *****
  • A bunch of young Brits go out for a little "in/out" and "ultraviolence".
  • Good performances all around.
  • Perhaps the most important part in the film, is when Alex is conditioned to be repulsed by violence.
  • An excellent film. Lots of underlying messages. A very deep film.
