Rating	Title \| Year	Author	Quote
3.5/4	Palindromes (2004)	Kam Williams	A bizarre but brilliant headscratcher! Posted Jul 15, 2007 Edit critic review
4/4	Mariscos Beach (2005)	Kam Williams	Works well so long as it is approached as a tongue-in-cheek farce as opposed to a plausible melodrama. Posted Jul 15, 2007 Edit critic review
4/4	D.O.A.: Dead or Alive (2006)	Kam Williams	If Corey Yuen believed in truth in advertising, ala Snakes on a Plane, this flick would have a name like Jiggly Babes Kick Butt. The stuff that post-pubescent dreams are made of. Posted Jun 17, 2007 Edit critic review
3.5/4	Manufactured Landscapes (2006)	Kam Williams	A powerful picture primarily because it never proselytizes but simple allows its visually-overwhelmed audience to draw its own conclusions about the unconsidered downside of living beyond our ecological means. Posted Jun 10, 2007 Edit critic review
3/4	Duck (2005)	Kam Williams	Philip Baker Hall throws himself into the role ever so convincingly opposite his anthropomorphized companion in a manner reminiscent of Jimmy Stewart with his imaginary 6-foot tall rabbit in Harvey, and Tom Hanks with Wilson the volleyball in Cast Away. Posted May 11, 2007 Edit critic review
4/4	Day Night Day Night (2006)	Kam Williams	Shrouded by a haunting pall which permeates the picture throughout, the movie is more interested in examining the mindset of a maniacal Muslim with her finger on the trigger than with the plight of her potential victims. Posted May 07, 2007 Edit critic review
3.5/4	The Glamorous Life of Sachiko Hanai (2003)	Kam Williams	Is this sleaze dressed up as art, or vice-versa? As more and more daring directors opt to push the envelope with similar conversation-provoking pictures, we'll have to let the debate about what could be an emerging cinematic trend continue. Posted Apr 16, 2007 Edit critic review
4/4	Jack Smith and the Destruction of Atlantis (2006)	Kam Williams	Alternately bizarre and inspired, but an appropriate tribute to an uncompromisingly experimental innovator in the field of cinema. Posted Apr 12, 2007 Edit critic review
2.5/4	The Astronaut farmer (2007)	Kam Williams	Fortunately, this fable revolves around a role model worth emulating with an intact moral compass and an indomitable spirit of adventure. What a breath of fresh air after that Space Shuttle Commander arrested for attempted murder in an adult diaper. Posted Feb 25, 2007 Edit critic review
4/4	China Blue (2005)	Kam Williams	Just the latest in an invaluable string of eye-opening documentaries designed to make Westerners face the fact that their relatively high standard of living comes at the expense of impoverished, indigenous peoples of the Third World.
