As you probably know by now, I don’t watch many movies, but I do know what I like, and what I like is superb visuals. I discovered last night at BASFA that the films of Akira Kurosawa are “masturbatory”, but being an intellectual snob I happen to like them, mainly because they look fabulous.
I liked Frank Miller’s Sin City too. There were certainly some rather dubious aspects to it, but it too looked fabulous. I haven’t seen 300, but I think I want to see The Spirit. Why? Here’s the trailer (thanks Nicola).
