I went in wanting this to be funny and it was far from it. Don't get me
wrong there are some funny parts but w/ all the drama you feel more
like crying than laughing. I think it made it even worse that they had
such a good cast + a good plot that when it turned out to be so bad you
wanted to yell at the ticket guy on your way out. About the cast though
I'm sorry but t...

Adapted for the big screen from Larry Beinhart's book by the same name,
Salvation Boulevard premiered at the Sundance Film Festival boasting a
cast including Greg Kinnear, Pierce Bronson, Jennifer Connelly, Ed
Harris, Marisa Tomei, Ciaran Hinds, and Isabella Fuhrman. Though the
conversation spurred on by the satire is one in which I plan to further
engage, the movie itself...

Simply put, Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly were remarkable. The
movie is less about the raw science of Darwin's beliefs, and holds the
focus very strongly on his relationship with his family, primarily his
wife, Emma, and daughter, Annie.Toby Jones gives a wonderful turn as Thomas Huxley, the great defender
of Darwin's beliefs, and the rest of the cast is up to the ta...

"place." The sack-men (and woman) are refreshingly odd and fun to

Why do these movies feel they need to include a bratty, spoiled,
overbearing kid?? The ridiculous performance of Jaden Smith added
annoyance to the empty script.The movie starts off well enough, and then tries miserably to develop
the characters and make us care for them. The Bates role is absurd;
Cleese's role has virtually nothing to say this amazing encounter. The

Astounding. Impeccably crafted drama. The story is sad and very
serious, but this is one of the most perfect examples of the art of
simple dramatic film-making that exists. This is film storytelling at
its pinnacle. On a scale of four stars, this is a five star movie. It
is mature, thoughtful and thought-provoking. This is a story of regular people (regular, middle class white peop...

Because I lived in Sierra Leone, in fact in Kono, the diamond-mining
area of the country, for three years, I had to see Blood Diamond as
soon as it came out. It is an excellent movie. Although it was not
filmed in Sierra Leone, it captures the reality of the country to a
remarkable degree. There is a great deal of violence in this movie, but
that violence is organic, realistic,...

Out of all the "Oscar Bait" films I've seen this year, this film beats
them all. Little Children is an unbelievable masterpiece about what it
means to grow up. This idea is brilliantly portrayed through characters
- while categorized as "adults" - have yet to outgrow certain
adolescent stages.Brad is a man who never got the chance to experience the spotlight in
his youth, a...

Once more, a great injustice has been done by IMDb voters. Dark Water
currently has a rating of 5.4, with 16% of the voters giving it a 1!
Note that 16% is 251 users, so it's not that a lot of people thought it
was bad, it just that not many people saw it and/or voted.It's quite obvious what happened. In what must be the most idiotic
marketing move of the century, Dark Water was pr...

"Hulk" is a film which is widely considered a failure, both financially
and artistically. Yet in the latter category this movie has a lot on
offer: masterful editing, good acting and the direction of a true
master. What Ang Lee has tried to achieve, namely merging the pulp-story of the
Hulk with the scale and drama of a Greek tragedy has been well
achieved. The scope of the sto...

First of all, anyone who says that s/he didn't "get the point of this
movie"
needs to go back to watching movies produced solely by Jerry Brukheimer
because the point could not be more apparent to anyone of any
intelligence.

American-born citizens and immigrants from war-ridden countries such as
Iran. Un...

it

things generally at odds with the norm. But why? It's nearly impossible

I'm not going to waste space with a synopsis, as every second or third
review provides one. A good indication of a challenging and original film
is
the number of 1/10 and 10/10 reviews, where the 1/10 reviews consist of
just
a few lines. A pretty sure sign that those folks weren't able or willing
to
watch with an open mind. Which is a good sign for casual viewers to g...

Never mind `Traffic'. Forget `Gladiator'. To find 2000's finest, most
nail-on-the-head perfect film, you'll need to look a little deeper. A small
film that only enjoyed limited release in theaters and isn't getting much
attention on DVD either, is Keith Gordon's latest, `Waking the Dead'. Back in 1992, there was another under-appreciated independent film called `A
Midnight Clear' t...

Interestingly enough, at this moment the life and career of the movie's
director seems to be at a maximum high, having just released the latest
James Bond, while actor Nick Nolte seems to be in some kind of personal
trouble in his private life, and without any major role for the last few
years. 'Mulholland Falls' might remain his last great role - he is giving an
outstanding pe...

Maybe I'm crazy, but the exact things that everyone seems to find wrong
with
the movie are the things that I think makes it good. Like everyone was
saying that all of the white characters are bad and all of the black
characters are good, when that is apparently not the case. Why does Remy
become a skinhead? Because the black guys in his dorm rejected,
humiliated,

I love this film. Absolutely love it. Can't help it. I'm a child of the
40s and this movie is about when I was a kid. The sets are great, the story
is 40s, the cars, the cafe with the bizarre little gingerbread giving an
impression of a gnome's hangout, the costumes, the hero with his wiffle hair
style, the airplanes and even Howard Hughes. What more could you want? No,

ever-so-lovely Jennifer Connelly is in what may be the worlds most amazing

ever constructed. And believe me when I say bravo to you all, all you men

I recently had the pleasure of watching this movie with three kids who had
(to my shock and dismay) never seen it before. It turned out to be as good,
if not better, as I remembered. The story is reminescent of the original,
printed page (very dark) Grimm fairy tales. The special effects are still
special, and the characters are unforgettable. Seriously, don't miss it. This is ...

This movie seems to be either loved or hated. Those that love it seems to
be
Argento fans that have succumbed to the style and imagination. Those that
hate it seems to get annoyed at script flaws, soundtrack, actors
etc.Most of the criticizers seems to have missed the point. Dario Argentos
movies is supposed to be watched and experienced, not dissected looking
for
flaws...
