    Hellboy: The Crooked Man

    ★★

    Why do they keep making these when Guillermo del Toro already made the perfect version, and it only made pennies???

    The latest looks like it was made for $1M despite a $20M budget.

    Brian Taylor (Crank) directed a glorified fan film.

    The Truman Show irl.

    This is a fascinating, but immensely sad, true story.

    Televised physical and pyschological torture in the name of reality TV entertainment.

    A must-watch, if only to see that this really happened.

    ★★★

    A more informative look at film and filmmaking than Ahnold's series.

    Stallone is clearly stuck on his daddy issues as his abusive father shaped his major characters and works.

    The film circles back on this fact about a half dozen times.

    A little too Rocky and Rambo-centric, but what should we expect, really?

    More anecdotes about the biz, like his brief scene showdown with Bobby D. In Copland would have benefitted the film.

    The Passenger

    ★★★½

    Kyle Gallner spits venomous rage for 90 minutes in his latest uber-aggressive role.

    This reverse 'Taxi Driver' sees an unhinged fast food employee take a shy pushover coworker (Johnny Berchtold) hostage and on the road.

    The violent madman forces the hostage to confront the traumas of his life.

    Gallner's performance and a poetic ending save a road trip drama that struggles to find the right speed.
