    ★★★★½

    beautifully realized in its slice of life portraits, and has one of the most wonderful child performances ever put to film. i'd do anything for granny.

    ★★★½

    we need more of these economical thrillers in this day and age. short, to the point, perhaps not enough to fully invest on these characters for me but the sheer joy of seeing the way Fleischer shows off his camera moves in such a contained setting is more than enough for a great time

    it's movies like this that make me proud to be italian. to be part of the same group of people that gave us artists like Sergio Leone. i will always cherish my roots and these movies will always be in my heart, ever since my dad showed them to me. i will always be grateful to this art form, and i hope that someday maybe i'll be able to work with it too. whatever life has in store for me,…

    ★★★★

    this whole thing was just so fun, some of the funniest performances i saw in a movie. everyone mentions the Don't Stop Me Now scene, but the bit that got me the most was when they were trying to imitate the zombies. also most stuff that had to do with Shaun's mum. love how the sentimental moments worked too.
