I must say... this was a fun film. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Some of it was a little confusing on the first viewing... but not so bad where it couldn't be followed. Though I must say the character of Box and the scene with him did seem out of place in the movie. But that was not enough to ruin the film. If you never seen this one I definitely recommend checking it out.

Band of Outsiders, a review by Antares

Band of Outsiders (1964) 3/5 - This was my first Godard film and after it was finished, the first thought that ran through my mind was a scene from the movie Amadeus. After Mozart's first royal commissioned opera, is finished, Emperor Joseph II comes on stage to praise Mozart for the work. He is at a loss for words, but manages to blurt out that it was 'quite new', but with slight trepidation in his delivery. Mozart retorts It is new...isn't it your Majesty? as if being new instantly makes it praise worthy. But sometimes, being new doesn't make something a masterpiece, and I felt that Godard was more interested in being fashionably different as opposed to making an interesting film. Sure, it does have it's share of crafted shots, but as a whole the story was lacking in creativity. I will admit that just looking at Anna Karina was worth the effort of watching this film, but aside from her, the rest was pretty shallow and a bit self exalting on the part of the director. It won't stop me from seeking out his other films, but now at least, I know what I can expect and hopefully, this was just an aberration, and not the norm.

"Due South" marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

Juliet is Bleeding

I really enjoyed this one. Sure there is a lot of tragedy... and virtually no comedy... but this one worked for me. It kept my interest much better then the previous few episodes. Though after this episode I do think I am in the mood for a more comedic episode.

My Rating:
