  The Act of Killing 2012

  ★ Added 1

  From Jennifer Merin's exceptional review, one of the many problems I had with this film... "This representation of genocide -- from the perpetrators skewed and heinous point of view -- has no connection to and gives no suggestion of the agony suffered by the Indonesian people. The film -- as well as the characters it follows -- shows a horrifying lack of regard for that suffering. It is, put simply, disrespectful."

  I did not believe (or care about) Congo's "transformation." Are people reviewing the film or the filmmakers intent? I'm baffled by the praise being heaped on this thing.

  The Wrecking Crew 2008

  I could watch individual documentaries on every track discussed here but this will do. Always nice to smile for 90 minutes.
