Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007: Update 7/27

Friend of The Face Knife Colin Rankine has added summer spectacular Live Free or Die Hard to the Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007, the magnificent bastard! I’m still planning on seeing Transformers and Harry Potter to add them to the chart (and another addition being a film I’ve already seen (and highly recommend) Tekkon Kinkreet), but those run-times are abominable. I need some level *beyond* red for the danger-indicator in the runtime category of thee chart.

Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007: Update 7/26

Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007: Update 7/18

Existential nudie French whodunnit One to Another (Chacun sa nuit) (click for my review) has been added to the Summer Movie Comparison Chart.

One of the beauties of filling out chart are the unexpected concordance between films, farcial though they may be. Multiple, identical birthmarks are just one of such coincidences to be discovered while perusing the chart.

Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007: Update 7/17

As we hit the mid-way point of the summer season, the Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007 swells to include Joshua (click for a delightful review), a delightfully creepy story of a boy who loves duets so much that he’d tear apart his family for more. Later this week, be amazed as the more esoteric charms of One to Another (click for a less delightful review) and TekkonKinkreet join the fun. If you’re missing the blockbusters, I plan to see a couple soon, so don’t worry - there will be room for them all on the Chart.

Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007: Update 7/5

The Face Knife returns from 4th of July festivities to add the hilarious, ridiculous horror comedy Black Sheep to the Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007, which was recently linked to again by the Guardian Film Blog. Do make sure to follow the above link to check out Kyria Abrahams’s excellent review of Black Sheep on The Movie Binge, which includes many helpful and enlightening links to YouTube videos that you really must see for yourself. It is not often that you get to study at the knee of an animal exploitation/horror specialist.

Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007 Update: 7/2

Michael Moore’s documentary Sicko now anchors the Summer Movie Comparison Chart 2007. Do read the chart, and do see the film.

Next update, possibly tomorrow: Black Sheep. What happens when Sheep stop being polite, and start driving trucks and biting guys’ weiners off. Hey, it’s New Zealand.
