 If the Melvins still had mud in their hair, they’d write a song like 'Solaranus', murky just enough, with that touch of schizoidry.

 What is Herzog doing in Hollywood? It’s not a good American-style police film and it’s not a Herzog film, that’s for sure.

 The plot is predictable and the knots unravel like shoelaces tied by a child for the first time.

Werner Herzog’s 2009 remake of Bad Lieutenant diverges sharply from Abel Ferrara’s original, opting for a lighter and less grim story. Despite a strong cast including Nicholas Cage and Eva Mendes, the film falls short in plot depth, character complexity, and tone. The bright New Orleans setting contrasts with the expected darkness, and the film ends on an unsatisfying, happy note. While some scenes show Herzog’s signature style briefly, the overall execution feels like a missed opportunity. Discover why Herzog’s Bad Lieutenant remake divides critics—read the full review and decide for yourself!

 Virtuosity is the foundation of her music, her distinctive trait, that essential element without which Hiromi would not be Hiromi.

 This music is played too, too well (and with too much emotive charge, for those who know how to perceive it) not to deserve a full 5.

 The album flows smoothly, leaving various melodies stuck in the listener’s head, which will then be forced to hum them with a (silly) smile plastered on their face.

 Oberst gets a bit really pissed off, as the genre requires, and he succeeds quite well, in a way that seems spontaneous, natural, not forced.

Desaparecidos' album Read Music/Speak Spanish offers an engaging blend of emo and post-hardcore with socially conscious lyrics. Despite the band's brief existence, the record flows smoothly with memorable melodies and natural vocal aggression from Conor Oberst.

 Heavens open! To the (very) pop garage notes of “Modern Art”, my daughter, and I believe many other children, literally goes crazy.
