• American Gangster (2007)

  [6/10]

  "From the trailers, I expected to see scene after scene of gore and violence, but I was pleasantly surprised at the intellectual comparison of these 'real life' characters from our recent past."

• Coffee and Cigarettes (2003)

  [5/10]

  "Jarmusch has collected some weird and quirky stories that emphasize the variability of human nature, even over something as simple as coffee and cigarettes."

• Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999)

  [6/10]

  "Jim Jarmusch creates an interesting mood of honor and despair. Ghost Dog comfortably follows the samurai code, which Ghost Dog regularly presents as voiced over narrative accompanied by the text of the code on the screen -- in the style of a PBS biographical documentary."

  Average score: 5.67
