With this being the FIRST movie review i've done, i couldn't have
picked a harder movie to summarize.. If you've seen Buddy Giovinazzo's
1986 street slime suicide epic "Combat Shock", than you'll know what to
expect.. A perfectly made film thats downbeat and depressing, a Drama
that can pass for horror And characters that you are supposed to hate,
but c...

I just watched this at London Film Festival & went in expecting to hate
it as I loved the original. But I have to say, the film is excellent,
certainly Cage's best film & best performance since Leaving Las Vegas.
Herzog has done a brilliant job & the film stands on it's own, apart
from the Ferrara film. I won't spoil bits by mentioning them, but the
film has seve...

I was able to see this wonderful little film at a special screening
prior to its release in New York. I was charmed from beginning to end
by the characters, situations, and John Sayles' great ear for dialog.
It is 1950 in a small town in the South. Segregation is still the norm
except for the recently reopened Army base nearby, which has integrated
its barracks in response ...

I just had the opportunity to watch this movie at a very first preview
in Los Angeles and therefore some things I've seen might be replaced.
They told us, that this was the very first screening (the director and
some actors were present, too) and they are still working on the final
things.However, I, as most of the audience did, enjoyed the movie very much.

I guess you could call this a "neo-noir," which is a modern-day film
noir. It has that atmosphere, especially in New Orleans which seems to
always been pictured on the seamy side in films. After the devastation
that took place there last year, perhaps filmmakers will kinder to the
city in future movies. Anyway, a seedy New Orleans, some good blues music and five

Shakespeare gets a Hollywood make over in Baz Luhrmann's high-octane
remake of Romeo and Juliet.The Australian director manages to combine an exciting mix of original
Shakespearean dialect and Hollywood action, which together delivers a
brilliant new concept to film making.The casting of Leonardo Di Caprio as Romeo and Claire Danes as Juliet
are inspired choices, as they both give ...

John Travolta stars in this mindless thriller in which he steals a nuclear
weapon and its up to Christian Slater and Samantha Mathis to save the
world..
Overall a good action flick with a leave your brain at home plot..Travolta
goes slightly over the top with his character but is still good..Slater is
ok and Mathis does what she can with what little the script gives
her..
