    Review preview for Angry Young Men

    More than half the runtime is spent with groups of men sitting around having boring conversations which provide little exposition and tell us nothing about their characters.

    Modern romantic musical based around the mythology of a famous Parisian nightclub in 1900. On re-release.
  • Corpse Bride
    Review preview for Corpse Bride

    Corpse Bride is even better than The Nightmare Before Christmas. It displays the imagination of a man, haunted in childhood by the Brothers Grimm, with a twisted sense of humour, steeped in 19th century romanticism.

    Stop-motion love story sees a young man inadvertantly marry a dead woman.

    The movie is eccentric and wild in one respect and positive and cool in another.
