I've been reading the comments page in a somewhat bemused fashion. It
seems to be divided between people who don't like the movie because it's not
enough like the original graphic novel and people who don't like it because
they've never heard of half of the characters that are members of the
League. The latter seems to me to be an unutterably silly reason for
disliking a film...

As a person who enjoys good movies, as well as reading and writing, I loved
this film, and would see it again. Some may accuse it of being formulaic,
but I feel that there is just enough unexpected-ness in it to keep the
audience interested. I would hope that the apparent similarities to the
director, Gus Van Sant's earlier work, Good Will Hunting, do not dissuade
anyone from ...

I remember how, after seeing this movie, everyone in my office was
talking about Catherine Zeta-Jones and how she was, arguably, the most
beautiful woman in the world. The women in the office went to go see it
after hearing all the fuss, many going just to confirm that "she isn't
all that." In a way, it's a bit of a shame because it's a decent heist

Sean Connery leads an all star cast in an extraordinary yet odd film. I
didn't really understand this film until I reached the end and then all
the pieces fell into place. I had to see it twice to really grasp what
the plot was all about. The story followed four different couples; married, engaged, dating and
cheating. Gillian Anderson and Jon Stewart literally bumped into each

I love the Avengers. Emma Peel was a hero of my childhood. I was
ridiculously excited for the arrival of this film and had nauseated all
my friends when the project was first announced about who was to be our
two spies. I was thrilled with the selection of Fiennes -- but Thurman?
I was hesitant. Then Diana Rigg passed on being in the film. Another
bad sign. Then, the television...

Kelly isn't faithful to the book". Frankly, who cares? If you want the

in general, and capital punishment in particular. Sean Connery plays Paul
Armstrong, a law professor who strongly opposes capital punishment.

matched team working in harness, plus the fact of the disappearing rain

the past 13 years and each time it is a pleasure to watch. Goldsmith's

'Red October' did for modern submarine warfare what 'Das Boot' did for WWII.
It took a concept that is inconceivable to most people (living in a boat
underwater with people trying to blow you up) and brought it up close and
personal. The resulting suspense and excitement for this type of film is
always extremely entertaining and this film delivers nicely.Tom Clancy's thrilling no...

Outstanding production that was the best film of 1987 with the
exception of the very dominant "The Last Emperor". "The Untouchables"
is the story of Elliot Ness (perfectly played by Kevin Costner) who
tries to bring down Chicago Mob boss Al Capone (Robert DeNiro in one of
his most under-rated roles) during the early-1930s. Illegal liquor

Name of the Rose is one of the greatest films of the '80s, and a film
that grows in greatness every time you revisit it. Based on a major
bestselling novel by Umberto Eco, the film is an excellent murder
mystery further heightened by its authentic ...

The year 1983 saw a strange phenomenon; two rival Bond films.
"Octopussy", starring Roger Moore, was part of the official Cubby
Broccoli Bond franchise. "Never Say Never Again", made by a rival
producer, is, apart from the awful "Casino Royale", the only Bond movie
which does not form part of that franchise. Its big attraction was that
it brought back the original Bond, Sean Co...
