    The lady swinger that looks like a cross between Nina Hartley and June Squibb is my wife.

    ★★½

    Completely unreal. But we need the director's cut. I demand to see Matthew Bright's full vision.

    First Love

    ★★★½

    I enjoyed this, but Miike unforgivably missed out on the opportunity to score a fight scene to Uffie's "First Love."

    Really liked this. Dafoe is one of those actors who always gives a 10/10 performance. I wish Steve made more movies.
