Saving Private Ryan
User reviewSaving private Ryan is a movie about II World War where an american group is ordered to find and get one soldier back home from the terrain of France, since this one soldier's all four brothers had been killed in combat. It is a interesting journey to look on the relationships between the men, and how the archetypal energies show up in this movie, switching side by side. Ultimately this movie is about courage. It is about making your dreams real.

Our Idiot Brother
User review“Our Idiot Brother” is a simple, light story that follows the life of the main character Ned as he enters back into the lives of his three sisters, shakes them up completely, and strolls back out grinning almost all the while. It is a feel good story with a lovely ending and a pretty straight forward set of lessons. For me there it is also a great and deep example of one of the stages of the Authentic Man Program (AMP) holarchy – appreciation.

Fight Club
Editorial reviewFight Club is a portrait of one man's journey to reclaim the primal power of his inner masculine. The unnamed protagonist is an empty shell, a nobody going nowhere. He has a mind-numbing job and meaning in life boils down to redecorating his flat with new trinkets from the IKEA catalogue. When the wild and rebellious Tyler Durden shows up in his life, the stage is set for an enlightening tumble down the rabbit hole of his unconscious primal impulses. Fight Club is a brilliant exposition of the scars that form in a man's psyche when his seat of masculinity is repressed by a society that looks for compliance rather than powerful individuation and an invitation to look closer at the wild man that lives within us all.
