So it was on my radar, and it's not a bad film in my judgment; just didn't expect for it to land in the top 20.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03078377790942736019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8838733.post-17094362729638726112016-02-05T17:30:26.084-05:002016-02-05T17:30:26.084-05:00Yes, good job to the 3 voters.

Put an asterisk next to "Abstract thought" from INSIDE OUT (which I assume is coming soon, or not so soon), that would have 5 points less in an ideal world.<br /><br />Like Darren, though, the comedy (which is not in the excerpt) rather than the singing is the main reason why I like it.

Also I saw JAUJA in a theater where the projection was worse than if I'd watched it on a transistor radio in the shower so under other circumstances I might have rated it higher, but not, definitely, higher than THE ASSASSIN.
