More.
Movie.
Grades.

The Quiet Family: A hilarious black Korean comedy starring the guy from JSA, the guy from Oldboy, the old lady from numerous Korean films, some old guy, and two cute actresses. It has some of the best comedic scenes I've seen all year. A

A History of Violence: Okay, I have been anticipating this film ever since I saw the trailer in April.

Great performances from Viggo Mortensen, Maria Bello, Ed Harris, and an awesome performance from William Hurt. Yes, there is blood and it is BRUTAL.

That is what the film is about. A
