...designers to shopping at Passaic stores, telling his actors not to re-watch the movies they were Sweding in the film, and casting about 300 Passaic residents. In the movie, Jerry and Mike replicate the proton beams in Ghostbusters by using fishing rods and tinsel, and imitate a blood splatter with a pizza pie.As a result of this sort of organic, spontaneous creativity, Gondry says that critics lump him in with the “quirkies” who make eclectic films and whom they criticize because, in Gondry’s words, “we don?...

...daily video record of the war, kept by a soldier whose buddies see their sergeant blown up by an IED and go a little crazy. In a long scene that shocks and sickens, they break into an Iraqi home, rape a girl and slaughter her family. An antiwar splatter movie, Redacted ain't subtle. What De Palma is going for, and achieves, is a mix of edgy ennui and hysteria that could be close to the daily lot of soldiers in Iraq...
