The Breadwinner (2017)
Animation is gorgeous!
I gave the rating based solely on the animation. I love the animation.
But, I saw this movie when it was called "Osama".

Night of the Lepus (1972)
More than Meets the Eye
Believe it or not, this isn't a terrible movie. Obviously it's a silly premise and, as far as monster movies go it will never rank up there with Them! or Nightbreed, but it's actually quite well done from a filmmaker perspective.
I really wanted to write a proper review, but I'll leave that to the ages and simply give my personal shout out to the DP on this one. If you like cheesy monster flicks, see it, but if you want to learn something about how to deal with a terrible monster movie while still loving the craft, then study Ted Voigtlander's work.
In short, I like this movie. It's cheesy and stupid in its premise, but the direction and photography more than make up for the horrific source material. I, for one, am glad this film exists.
Morozko (1965)
Beautiful and Charming
I like this movie and I'm American! There are no two ways about it. It's a well done children's movie. The characters are colorful, the sets magical, and the stories are timeless.
Even for being made in 1964 USSR, a place not exactly well known for its film industry, this film stands out as one of the great ones. Star Trek could have learned a thing or two about set design and creature effects from the makers of this film. It was clearly a labor of love.
For those of you mentioning the MST3K version, keep in mind that the English dub has some of the worst ADR acting I've ever heard. Give yourself a treat and re-watch this in the original Russian with the original actors and get English subtitles.
This film is easily as good as anything Disney was putting out at the time. Don't sell it short just because some TV robots told you to.
