Comfort Films, Good Films & Bad Films

Post Yau & Yee Fest, I was a bit in the dumps, due to Yee's underwhelming Shinjuku Incident. In order to lift my filmic spirits, I re-watched some of my favorite Hong Kong films:

Love Undercover
Feel 100% II
Crazy N' the City
Bullets Over Summer
Juliet In Love
Love Battlefield

Spirits were lifted.

Then I watched/re-watched a mix of good and awful films.

Amelie Unfortunately awful
Visible Secret II (re-watch) Good
Bled One of the worst films ever made
Amusement Good
Rashomon (re-watch) One of the greatest films ever made
The Haunted Cop Shop (re-watch) Awfully funny
Gran Torino (re-watch) Good
Little Miss Sunshine (re-watch) Good
Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (re-watch) Good, duh
Super Troopers (re-watch) Okay

Yikes! It's sad that I've watched so few films lately. I should go watch some.
