LATEST Asian Cinema REVIEW

Godzilla: King of the Monsters (Theatrical screening)
Just another mindless blockbuster too many, but stomping good fun for dedicated monster movie fans

RECOMMENDED Asian Cinema

Shin Godzilla (Home Video Release)

A powerfully political cinematic message told in a terrifically engaging manner. A Godzilla very much for our times.

Exit

An interestingly composed character study, with an accomplished performance from leading actress Chen Shiang-Chyi.

For Love's Sake (Theatrical screening)

Miike's back with another insane idea that shouldn't work at all but does, and has altogether too much fun while doing so.
