Das Boot (1981)
I really want to like this movie.
I have tried watching this movie countless times and despite everything I find myself mentally composing a grocery list or just somewhere else. I cannot stay focused no matter how hard I try.
I understand that many people have found this movie to a true cinematic gem but no matter how I try it just loses me about 30 minutes into it. It's obviously just not got the correct hook for me.
Ginger Snaps (2000)
Sorry, but I must disagree with the last review.
While not completely original this movie had some truly fine moments. When was the last time you saw lycanthropy equated with puberty. There were some original and really fun scenes throughout the movie as well as some of the standard schlock. I loved that Ginger was completely unapologetic about her violent outbursts and reveled in the fact that she was able to get so much pleasure from lashing out. I was truly amused as she faced the changes of her body with disgust and soon learned acceptance. This is the first lycanthropic coming of age stories I've ever seen and plan to watch it again soon.
