Movie Reviews:

• Kamurai: Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.
• This movie has held up over a long period of time due to stellar performances by Janeane Garofalo and Uma Thurman, and that’s really all it has going for it. Great actors giving solid delivery in a decent script.
• It does remind me of Cyrano de Bergerac a bit, but it’s a classic switcheroo trope for a romantic comedy that gives a life lesson of beauty is what you make of it.
• My biggest problem is that they basically call Garofalo ugly because she’s not Thurman, which doesn’t make sense to me.
• Other that that, the script is strong enough without being spectacular, and I feel like the cast had to work very hard to make the movie what it is.
• A modern day reboot is surely on the way with it being about a podcast of the same name.
