The Wrecking Crew (1968) (1968)

Director: Phil Karlson
His 45th Movie
My 1st movie watched from the director

I've been wanting to see this since "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" came out and I'm really glad I did. It's not a very good movie, but it is fun and it is a unique piece from Hollywood history, considering the pending demise of Sharon Tate. Tate is incredibly likable and a reminder of a sad loss. However, the "Star" is Dean Martin, and he is terrible in this. Clearly they cast him for the star power and marketing, but I can't help know it would have been a better movie with someone else in the lead.
Overall it is a silly James Bond or Flint movie and just good fun.

Berserk! (1968)

Director: Jim O'Connolly
His 4th Movie
My 1st movie watched from the director

Wanted to see this after watching the show, "Feud", expecting it to be really bad but it was actually a pretty decent B movie. The circus stunts were entertaining, Crawford puts in her famous effort, and the ending reveal was good even if messy.

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

Kubrick's best and Kubrick is one of the best.

Stehako's rating:

One of the best years I can recall - it includes one of the greatest sci-fi films (Space Odyssey) and westerns (Once Upon a Time...) and has possibly my favorite Cassavettes film (Faces)
