COSMOPOLIS (EU/CA’12): The rat has been devalued. A lurching stilted layer cake of death. This is true. Fucking loved it.

MAGIC MIKE (US’12): My mancrush with Channing Tatum deepens. Could’ve done with even less story, tho.
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 6, 2012
HOLY MOTORS (FR’12): ”Trois! Douze! Merde!” I believe the technical term would be ’bugfuck crazy’. Rather funny, too. #hiff

CRAZY HORSE (FR?11): T&A, exquisite lighting, T&A, art versus commerce, T&A. Did I mention the tits and the ass? #hiff
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 7, 2012
SIDE BY SIDE (US’12) is actually a pretty decent overview of the whole digital vs film issue. #hiff #hiff2012

KÖNIG DES COMICS (DE’12): Overlaps with ’…ind das mit links’ but not completely. Prolly not for ppl who don’t know his work#hiff #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 8, 2012
FIVE STAR EXISTENCE (FI’11): Hey y’all, didya notice them computers have changed the way we live? No? Then watch this film. Otherwise… #hiff
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 10, 2012
SNABBA CASH 2 (SE’12): Like the plausibility-pushing audacity and multiple storylines. Some music cues sound like T2 & Tron remake.
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 10, 2012
TABLOID (US’10) takes its time to get started, but boy oh boy it’s worth it just to see and hear Joyce McKinney. #hiff #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 9, 2012
KING OF PIGS (KR’11) feels like there’s a strong story buried underneath the lacklustre animation. Frustrating. #hiff
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 10, 2012
BOURNE LEGACY (US’12): Franchiselitis? Renner packs a punch, but it’s not like you can make out most of the action, esp. in the latter half.
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 12, 2012
GIMME THE LOOT (US’12): How much do you enjoy watching Bronx kids talk bullshit? I did quite a lot. #hiff
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 13, 2012
INDIE GAME: THE MOVIE (US’12): Curious how much it focuses on the ppl instead of the games & ending feels sluggy; still recommended #hiff
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 13, 2012
TABU (PT’12): Gorgeous Academy ratio (?) b/w cinematography; I’ll freely admit I didn’t get much out of it–layers, stylized, languid #hiff
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 17, 2012
INTO THE ABYSS (US’11) could be the least Herzogian documentary Herzog has done in a while, as he mostly stays out of the picture #hiff
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 18, 2012
WHORE’S GLORY (AT’11): Glawogger’s documentary about prostitutes is unflinching and unsentimental. I’ll go chop off my penis now. #hiff
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 19, 2012
KUNINGAS LITMANEN (FI’12): Cracks on the hagiography let a little light shine through but not much. It’s all about the game, I guess.
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 21, 2012
PREMIUM RUSH (US’12): It certainly zips ahead efficiently enough. A full house of cyclists made for a lovely audience.#HIFF2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 21, 2012
SEARCHING FOR SUGAR MAN (SE/UK’12): Wonderful recordings. Too bad we don’t hear Heikki’s Suburbia Bus Tour sugarman.org/afterlyrics.ht… #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 21, 2012
A ROYAL AFFAIR (DK’12): Inbred king + lovelorn queen + ambitious outsider = triangle; sprinkle in some palace intrigue. #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 23, 2012
BEYOND THE HILL (TR’12): Slowly bringing to boil a conflict out of nowhere. #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 23, 2012
ROUVA PRESIDENTTI (FI’12): All the mundane bits of a presidency make for an interesting docu; the DSLR footage hurt my brain #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 23, 2012
PLAY (SE’11): Östlund’s (mostly) static long take aesthetic bears more fruit than in Ofrivilliga; esp impressive w/kid actors #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 23, 2012
PLAY: The intercut cradle bit felt too much on the nose. Also not sure about opening up the world so late in the film… #HIFF2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 23, 2012
PLAY: Meaning maybe that could’ve been done earlier or not at all. Now it kinda felt like a letdown after the hermetic kids’ world #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 23, 2012
PLAY: Also something dodgy about the visual quality. Did they use shitty zoom lenses or was the zooming & panning done in post? #HIFF2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 23, 2012
KEYHOLE (CA’11): Not sure if this fever dream is a yahtzee. Maybe a full house? Udo Kier ghostfellating the Cyclops. #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 24, 2012
BERNIE (US’11): Black’s finely controlled mugging feels perfect for a character like Bernie-for once. Antistiff cinema, as it were #hiff2012
— Olli Sulopuisto (@osulop) September 24, 2012
AMERICAN GRINDHOUSE (US’09): John Landis should be interviewed in every documentary about movies. The chronological walkthrough… meh.

Jossain välissä oli myös SUOMEN MARSALKKA, josta auoin päätäni radiossakin.
