: Jakob the Liar

Sappy, overly sentimental Oscar bid full of teary-eyed people making lame speeches in bad accents. Some parts were interesting, and there were a few excellent touches, but overall the film fell sadly flat. A feeble Shindler’s List wannabe.

: Best Laid Plans

Really cool little film about money-making schemes going all wrong. Neatly directed, with some cool plot twists. I’ve seen other films that wanted to be this one. Written by the same guy who wrote Ravenous.
