One tart and tasty Danish!

Comedy
Rod Lott
That The Hangover director Todd Phillips has plans to helm an Americanization of the Danish comedy Klown (or Klovn) comes as neither a surprise nor a shock. I'd only be surprised if the remake can get within arm's length of equaling it.

The ending is a crime.

Thriller

Can a bad ending ruin an otherwise OK movie? In the case of The Factory, I believe it can.

Compliance

Do as you’re told and watch ... if you can.

Thriller
Rod Lott
File Compliance under “stranger than fiction.” Although not a documentary, it is based on a true story, and one so utterly outrageous that many will refuse to believe it anyway.
