I Sell the Dead (2008)

Invasion of the body snatchers
Arthur Blake is scheduled to be guillotined.  A priest is sent to hear his confession.  Arthur narrates the tale of his life leading up to how he ended up in the current situation.  With some humorous moments, I Sell The Dead is light popcorn fare.  As always though, British comedy always seems to be way funnier than American. 

I Sell The Dead manages to snatch 3 out of 5 Poblanos!

Bunraku (2010)

Vengeance is dish best served cold
A mash up between a comic book, a Tarantino flick, Natural Born Killers, and The Science of Sleep, Bunraku plays out like a dystopian fairly tale. I love the mix of animation, origami, and live action. The sets are fantastic as are the costumes. There are some really amazing shots (be on the lookout for Josh Hartnett's jail break-in). Very watchable, very enjoyable, and very fun. 

Bunraku knocks me over with 4 out of 5 Poblanos!
