Kenmore Ave (2005)

The best short film I've ever seen...

[10/10 · 1 November 2005]

Kenmore Ave was probably the best short film I've ever seen!

Kenmore Ave intrigued and engaged me from the moment the movie began to the very end.The combination of the film's visual style which was highly atmospheric and sensual, to the excellent caliber of acting and directing, left me wishing the film would continue.Lisa Crosato who plays Danielle was outstanding and extremely nuanced and captivating in her performance. Levani was equally fascinating in his portrayal of Lars. Watching the two together was like watching two very different worlds collide and wobble through to the disturbing ending,which actually caused me to want to see the film again for more clues.Excellent! Two thumbs way up!

Deadly Ransom (1998)

[23 August 2000]

If you like chopsockey movies, Deadly Ransom is for you. The fighting, gunplay, death and violence are endless and quite entertaining if you like this kind of action (and most of the male ,12-39 demographic just loves it) then buy this DVD baby off the web for 15 bucks. The late Brion James plays a delicious villain as the cocaine snorting Bobby Rico. The best part of this film was the strong performance delivered by Lisa Crosato who plays the beautiful kidnapped rich girl. Although the plot is paper thin, Crosato manages to bring depth and believability to her portrayal. Loren Avedon handles the action but should probably be sent to actors jail for twenty to life. Although this isn't academy award stuff, it's still fun to watch.
