The Upside of Anger (2005)

Damn good film. Almost perfect.

[10/10 · 21 March 2005]

Binder has done an amazing film. I get the problem some people have with the ending but I still like it even though I have to agree. I love the film. Hats off to Mike Binder. This is a good film for adults. It's funny and warm and truthful. Like Hannah and her sisters or Crimes and Misdemeanors. Costner is so good in this. He's a fine actor and this film showcases him and Erica Kristenson is a star to watch.

LOVED IT!!!!!!! I love Joan Allen as well and Evan Rachel Wood is a pleasure to watch.

Mike Binder is a good filmmaker. I will be in line for his next movie too. I know that this guy is going to have a long career. His work has a ring of truth to it. He deserves all of the great reviews he's getting for this.

The Search for John Gissing (2001)

Perfect Comedy.

Saw it in Austin at the festival and was laughing like a wildman. Binder is NOT doing Woody Allen in the first twenty minutes he's ten times funnier. Jaenaane Garafalo was great and Rickman, who I am not a big fan of most times, is prefect in this role. Perfect. Loved it. To the makers, thankyou.
