Film Log for 2012 (254 movies items)

"Some GREAT shots, and Kinski is awesome, but the movie didn't strike me as anything too amazing. I suppose with the other Herzog films I'd seen, my expectations were too high. Still, a fine example of film making that likes of Luc Besson and Danny Boyle could learn from"
