This is going to be a difficult movie to describe, being as I can't talk about all the wonderful things I want to talk about for fear of spoiling the whole thing. Suffice to say, the cinematography is brilliant, the writing is satisfying, and the story is significantly more complex and interesting than it seems on the surface and in trailers. My only disappointment is that it never gets into the horrors of mental institutions as I was hoping/expecting. Really, I didn't miss it. Once I realized I wasn't going to get what I wanted the film very quickly redeemed itself by magnifying its depth with a brilliant plot twist. More please! News

@alibakes Haywire is a sparse little covert thriller featuring a smooth jazz score. I can't think of anything else to say about it.

@dcorsetto For the record, I'm more grossed out by pooping. And war. War and pooping, mostly.

Twitter ran out of "who to follow" recommendations for me. I should probably turn the Internet off now.
