A man with particular skills find himself among honest townsfolk gripped by criminals.
Simple and reasonably entertaining. Recommended especially for the people who like gritty low-tech spy-superhero movies.
Set in Italy, so there is some spoken Italian.

A couple moves to a quiet and friendly town, but the wife, with no job and her kids grown up, has enough free time to be unhappy.
I didn’t like it compared to The Stepford Wives – (1975 movie).
Based on The Stepford Wives – (1972 book), by Ira Levin

A beta tester stumbles into software with a back door also used by high-level hackers.

Inappropriately rated: Suicide

To dispose of bodies, criminal enterprises send people back in time to kill them. For some reason.
I mean, it’s a movie. It’s not bad, but it’s definitely dumb.

A boy is saved by a mob man, and becomes an assassin as repayment only to become embroiled in the crime world.
Gentle and moody. A little cheesy and a little lame, but I still like it a lot.
Properly titled Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai
