Lupin III: Dead or Alive (1996)

From IMDb: “When Lupin heads to the kingdom of Zufu to pilfer its treasure, he incurs the wrath of its psychotic ruler General Headhunter, who places a dead-or-alive bounty on his head that many intend to collect.” What I liked: Sharp pace enhances an already engaging story featuring one of my favorite fictional characters and

Perdy (vol. 1)

Perdy is a Western-comedy about the toughest gal you’ll ever find. She’s crude, she’s horny and she will break your nose if she feels like it. She is also fresh out of prison and maybe has something up her sleeve. What I liked: I’m not a big fan of westerns but doggone it, this is

Hell or High Water

– Other critics have called it a neo or contemporary western but that classification does not do it justice. Hell or High Water dusts off a mirror to show us exactly what warped sense of justice we have in the good ole US of A. – A perfect example of the end justifying the means,
