Buffalo Rider (1978)

An American western directed by John Fabian and Dick Robinson.
A gunslinger finds a young buffalo and saddles it. He rides to save a baby and get revenge on the men who killed the baby's parents.
The massive amounts of narration make it seem like a nature documentary, but this actually helps the film. Most of the men slinging guns in the film have forgotten the faces of their fathers and tend to miss more shots than they hit, including the main character. Sharp shooting alone does not make a gunslinger and the main character proves his worth through helping others and destroying the bad guys. I'm rating this good because I actually watched the whole thing and liked it.
Here's where you can watch it too:

The Beautiful Truth (2008)

Blogger has "updated". In other words, "mutated" or "downgraded". I believe that blogger has been genetically modified and deliberately dumbed down. The familiar interface is gone and has been replaced by a system in which I had to search for the button to write a new post. When I uploaded the image, it just put the fuckin' thing wherever it wanted. Alien software aside, my post:
An American documentary by Steve Kroschel.
A 15 year old boy finds out about a worldwide conspiracy network to destroy human life.
This film presents plenty of important topics about food and health in a cohesive manner. A solution is even given! This puts it miles above other conspiracy documentaries which only present a problem (I'm talking about you, Alex Jones). The style and production value are good as well. I'm rating this awesome because it is everything that any documentary should be: cohesive, coherent, concise and conclusive.

Star Wreck In The Pirkinning (2005)


A Finnish science fiction comedy by Samuli Trossonen.
A space captain who is stuck in the past goes to Russia and builds a spaceship with which he conquers the world. When things are not going well on Earth, he goes back into space to look for things to conquer.
This is actually one of the better free movies available. The plot and characters make sense and the humor is good. Everything is named with a pun that I found amusing. The style and production value were not bad at all. I'm hesitantly giving this a good rating. It wasn't really up my alley, but it was made very well.

Route 66 an American Bad Dream (2004)


A German documentary directed by Stefan Kluge.
A trio of young German men travel to the united states to drive an old Cadillac across the country. The car turns out to be problematic and they spend more time fixing it than driving.
This was actually a decent film. The production value was good, but the style was too artsy-fartsy and screwed up the presentation. The characters were not developed at all, but the plot was good. It was a balance of good and bad things that I can live with. It earned an adequate rating.

Pentagon (2008)


A crime film by Davor Radic.
A pair of young women are holding hostages and drinking booze. A hit man wanders aimlessly.
This film was nearly plotless. The production value was absolutely bad. I liked the characters and it gets alcohol points. I'm rating it poor.

Oceania (2008)

A film by Harry Dehal.
Some strange sexual situations cause problems for people.
The plot was muddy and unclear. The characters were not developed. The style was overly artsy-fartsy. The production value was great. Let's call it a golden piece of shit. I'm rating it bad. Hoping for a picture? tough luck. I can't find any either.

Seven Dead Men (2009)


A crime drama by Brett Koonce.
pairs of people in seemingly unrelated situations turn out to all be involved in the same crime deal.
BORING! The plot was generally hidden and the characters were involved in such mundane tasks. The production value was like a porno without the music. I'm rating this bad.
