List of 2009 Films Ranked by Rating
That's right, film fans, it's finally happened. As of this year, I'm no longer
writing comments/reviews/call-them-what-you-will on new movies. I might
conceivably do a festival report, if I go to any festivals, and I'll still be
writing sketchy notes on old movies - mostly for my own benefit - but this
website is essentially closed (or will be, once I sort out some 2008
stragglers). Sorry if you only just got here, looks like you're late to the party.
Where've you been for the past 12 years, anyway?
Ratings are explained
right here, for the unhealthily curious.
