Reviews of Music, Movies, Anime & More

Maduro’s music has plenty of room for development, but this EP proves he’s got a solid foundation.

The sort of disposable cheese that gives disposable, cheesy films a good name.

There’s a breathtaking quality to these songs, a sort of wonder that only comes when a band is more concerned with aesthetics than academics.

It’s good stuff, but it ain’t worth $80.

Each unnamed track is slow and purposeful, solid and often quite beautiful.

They’ve really created a beautiful piece here that manages to be sparse and minimal while remaining emotional and moving.

It’s a beautiful work, glittering with ice and chilly atmospheres.

Low plays each song in a very deliberate manner, as if each song survives from one chord or brushstroke to the next.

Beautiful cinematography aside, the movie’s quirkiness and whimsy undermines its emotional impact.

It’s a wonder we ever survived the Cold War.

A movie about the wonder and mystery of movies, as played out in the life of one man.

Easily one of the best of Chan’s recent films, there’s a cohesive plot and the fight scenes are among the best Chan’s ever done.

I would even hazard to say that Low’s music isn’t really experienced until you see them live.

Some tracks may leave the new listener bewildered, but I challenge anyone to not find the beauty ultimately contained in these recordings.

Low sticks to their tried and true formula of playing the most sedate pop music one can imagine.

Perfect music for when you just want to be alone, the lights turned down, while the world rushes around you.

I swear, this movie has some of the most innovative ways to kill people I’ve ever seen in a kung fu film.

How you feel about Ms. Junge comes from your own impressions of her and her words.

Infernal Affairs is the sort of slick, intelligent movie that any director would love to have under his belt.

It’s a thoroughly engrossing series, one that I can only hope is expanded on in the future.
