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 had the privilege of seeing this movie at SXSW in Austin. The theater
couldn't have expected the incredible turnout. They had to open a
second theater and still turn away many more people. We were there an
hour early and the place was already packed and buzzing with
anticipation.I wasn't sure what to expect, but I viewed with an open mind and was
blown away. I also ha...

Bad writing, bad direction, bad editing, bad acting. It has it all.
Frankly, I enjoy a good low budget feature, but I can't tolerate a
strung-together series of the most clich...

I think to gain a full appreciation of Don't Come Knocking, it will
help to be familiar with the work of Pulitzer and multiple Obie winning
Sam Shepard, who contributes the screenplay for this movie. I've read
reviews all over the internet complaining that the film lacks in terms
of realism, but this complaint seems ill-conceived if aimed at Shepard,
who has generally operated ...

Deuces Wild (2002) takes its cue from films such as West Side Story, Romeo
and Juliet, and The Outsiders. And since I happen to like these kind of
movies, I happened to like Deuces Wild quite a bit. The story takes place in
1950s Brooklyn, New York:Leon (Stephen Dorff) and Bobby (Brad Renfro) are members of a street gang
called "The Deuces". Ever since their brother died from a dru...

Caught this on DVD. Watched it mainly because I like most
of
the cast members -- Coyote, the luscious Kinski and Faruzia
Balk,
and Jeremy Piven (from THE LARRY SANDERS SHOW). Assumed from
the
cover it was going to be one of those late night cable
erotic
thrillers (and the delicious nudity contained within the
opening
scene seemed to confirm that), but it t...

Finally, a movie worth the full price of a ticket! Almost Famous is
Cameron Crowe's semi-autobigraphical story of an aspiring rock
journalist who goes on tour with a band in the 1970's. If it sounds
familiar, it's probably because the story is hardly new. There have
been dozens of movies made about the rock and roll lifestyle: the
drugs, the sex, the fights, and all...

I have to admit: this Adam Sandler no-brainer is hilarious, just had me
laughing right from the start. I'd rank it in my top ten funny movies
of my collection and it features one of my favorite characters in film:
Bobby Boucher Jr., a heckuva lot nicer guy than Sandler's "Happy
Gilmore." "Bobby" is about as innocent and a gentle-natured a guy as you'll find
this side of Forrest...

Not many people know this, but Ed Norton's character, Derek, is based
on an actual person -- a guy that went to my high school a few years
before I did. He comes to speak every year at an anti-hate assembly.
They show us clips of the movie (in my case, my English teacher let us
watch the whole thing) and then he comes out and speaks. It's bizarre,
to see him because he sounds e...

This is a very entertaining blend of supernatural thriller and teen
movie. Sarah (played by Robin Tunney) is the new girl at a Catholic
shool in Los Angeles where she meets a group of girls (Fairuza Balk,
Neve Campbell and Rachel True) who dabble in witchcraft. When Sarah
joins the group they discover that they have genuine power and start
using it to sort out their personal pr...

I liked this better than Dangerous Liaisons which came out at about the same
time. Of course Dangerous Liaisons was very good, and John Malkovich, who
played Vicomte de Valmont, is an actor of power, and Glenn Close, who played
the Marquise de Merteuil, is highly accomplished, but I preferred the charm
of Colin Firth in this film to the brutality of Malkovich, and I thought

The first time I saw this movie I was about 6 or 7. It really scared me, I
remember having nightmares of Mombie for weeks... I also remember rewatching
it week after week. Now 10 years later I've rediscovered it and it's still
chilling. Not because it was meant to be a horror, but because the imagery
and plot is so vivid and captivating I can't help but feel like I'm really
