Two thing's come to mind with the movie '88'. Quentin Tarantino and 'Memento'. Director April Mullen has done her best to show us what it would have been like if Tarantino had made 'Memento', instead of Christopher Nolan. The result? Not all that bad. The film doesn't reach the intellectual capacities of 'Memento', but focuses more on the style. And while it doesn't come off in every scene, the overall result is pretty good.The interweaving time lines are handled well. Thing's can get very confusing in these types of films but Mullen does a good job of keeping things easy enough to follow along with. Katharine Isabelle was excellent in the lead role, particularly in the flashback storyline. The rest of the cast were admittedly not great (Ironside and Lloyd were passable) but that is forgivable in a low-budget film like this. While the film never reaches anywhere near the potential a Tarantino or Nolan is capable of, it still isn't half bad. Worth giving a chance.

OK, so this is maybe a 6, but I saw it at Glasgow Frightfest, and that makes an impact in itself, maybe I'll downgrade it to a 6, but maybe it is a 7! Who knows? I should, right? Anyway!Going to try not to spoil anything here, and I will be brief.I liked Katharine Isabelle in this one. She is cool, weird and not to shabby-looking either. Hard to put this in one genre, it's rather violent, got some drama, some action, some humor, and a little mystery to it too. But I liked it. It was entertaining, and again Katharine Isabelle is the real star here. She is fun to watch. She may slightly overdo her "I'm-so-incredibly-cool"-thing a little at times, or it might just be me. And if it's not me, I think it's the director and/or screenwriters fault.Anyhow, entertaining little flick.

I liked this movie better the first time I saw it when it was called Kill Bill. This is why I hate that the movie industry is going after illegal downloaders instead of tackling the real problem that is over priced repetitive garbage. There have maybe been 5 original movies in the last ten years, yet they charge $40 for a Bluray (I'm not even talking about those god awful reboots, Robocop, Total Recall, Karate Kid, Spiderman's (ad nauseam) etc.). Netflix has done a great job of proving that this garbage at a reasonable price is working, but "big Hollywood" wants to put the brakes on it because they aren't milking us for enough money from that system. Yet another great film based on another original premise, good for you.

Must confess I'm quite disappointed after watching this because it seemed to be a good movie and I thought it would be so but it wasn't, I got bored several times. If you watch this you will see many deaths, a lot of blood and a storyline that could be great. There are two things I really liked about this movie, the first one is the fact that at first the storyline gets really confusing, flashbacks here, flashbacks there, two girls on scene (two personalities), one single actress, you don't know which one is real and which one isn't so you want to know how this story will end because you really don't know what's happening and that kept me watching the movie until the end. The second thing I liked was of course the acting of Katharine Isabelle, I really don't know why this girl isn't in a Hollywood movie, she is sufficiently good to be part of a big project, she is even better than those well-paid actresses that their only talent is to be pretty, anyway she did a really good job making the storyline more realistic, but despite her good acting there's nothing she could have done to enhance this movie because the director and the writers are responsible for the poor results, in my opinion clearly.Finally I can't recommend this movie, 4 stars is the best I can give and most of it was thanks to Katharine Isabelle.
