Keyhole (2011) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4) : Trapped in a house haunted with memories
I visited Jeonju International Film Festival(JIFF) again on last Sunday. Though I can watch only one movie at a time, it has always been fun to see the international film festival held in my hometown city, and I have … Continue reading

The Avengers (2012) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4) : Something good, Something bad, and Nothing new
One of my personal sweet memories with Ebertfest, which is currently being held as usual in Urbana-Champaign, Illinois, was the gift basket I received at the hotel room on its first day. It contained various things including two bottles of … Continue reading

The Ides of March (2011) ☆☆☆(3/4) : Idealism has no place in politics
One main weak spot of George Clooney’s “The Ides of March” is that its sharp message is hardly regarded as cynical in our days. It is virtually impossible for everyone to remain clean in the mud field called politics, and … Continue reading
Jesus Hospital (2011) ☆☆☆(3/4) : An uncomfortable story about family and religion
The unlikable heroine of South Korean independent film “Jesus Hospital“ felt pretty repellent to me at first. Though the Christian people I have known or met were very nice people I still remember with fondness, I also know that there … Continue reading
