I saw this movie at an early screening and was delighted.I give this movie three stars out of four, or 8 of ten points for great
characters, intrigue, and some startling action scenes. It looses the 2
points because it does tend to slow down a little and become more
dramatic at times but if you are a Mel Gibson fan you probably won't
mind that at all. This movie reminded me a ...

I think this movie is wonderful. Can't understand the low rating on
this site so far--I really wouldn't be surprised if those individuals
and industries who stand to lose profits from the revelations of the
movie, have voted negatively to artificially reduce its average rating
on this well-known site. I mean, jeez, the movie hasn't even debuted

Payback revisited and a whole new ending. I wanna get this off to begin
with; I really like the original cut. It's been circulating for years
that it was the result of studio tinkering and the director wasn't all
that pleased with the final version. Given that many films suffer
similar fate and with disastrous results I thought maybe Payback was
the exception.Gone here ...

When 'The Singing Detective' was first produced as a TV mini series in
1986, it had a cumulative running time of well over 400 minutes. In
this theatrical remake, the story has been pared down to no more than
106. I haven't seen the original - which enjoyed almost unprecedented
critical acclaim in its time - so I have no idea how much of its
quality has been lost in its current...

I live with a Vietnam Vet who served in the late 1960s with 1st Cav.
Medivac. During service he earned two Purple Hearts, the Distinguished
Flying Cross, and the Air Medal. Since WE WERE SOLDIERS concerns the
1st Cav., Randy wanted to see it. I reluctantly agreed; I am not
partial to war films and I dislike Mel Gibson, and Randy is very hard
on Vietnam War films. He dismisses P...

I don't think this film deserved the poor reviews that some gave it.
I've only seen 3 of Night Shylaman's films (6th Sense, Unbreakable) and
this one is the most sophisticated in my mind in terms of the director
manipulating the viewers into seeing and believing what he wants you to
believe.This is not Gibson's worst film by any means. If anything he gets to

The Patriot is technically a good movie. Nicely made with good

good acting, a strong storyline and fabulous cinematography.But, to say this movie distorts history would be an understatement. And
that is extremely sad in a movie that sells itself as an accurate

of events during the revolution. The Patriot, unfortunately, crosses the

clearly felt in every scene they have together. Mel Gibson has finally

This movie could be classified into different genres - suspense, romance &

succeed.

suspensful. I won't go into details if you haven't seen it, but it's

excellent cameos provide some comic relief, especially Danny Glover near the

When Mel Gibson starred in Forever Young in 1992, it was probably an
attempt to break away from the wild man of Mad Max and Lethal Weapon.
He actually proves to be quite likable as a romantic lead, and makes
Forever Young a sweet, endearing romantic fable.In 1939, Mel plays Captain Daniel McCormick, an Air Force test pilot.

I actually thought this film improved with each viewing - some of the

lines were lost first time around, with people speaking together, and
rotor
noise from the aircraft. Air America is probably a little too
script-by-numbers, but only if you think about it too much - the key is to
just enjoy the action and the comedy. I couldn't tell whether Mel Gibson's

loyal to the true historical facts of the real mutiny. Alright, there are a

There are anti-war movies that work by rubbing your nose in the gore
and brainless waste of war, and then there are those that are more
subtle and cunning, and approach your sensibilities from behind.
Gallipoli, certainly one of the best Australian films of the modern

last 20 minutes, it derives comic dialogue...
