Why this movie went straight to DVD is beyond me. The mood is pure
southern Gothic, the acting is terrific, and the story is complicated
and sad.The performances were dead on. TLJ hits Dave Robicheaux on the button.
But the best is Mary Steenburgen as Bootsie. She really nails this
part.The story is about a Cajun cop who is haunted by his own demons, and by

I'm not sure why people are giving this movie such a hard time. My
husband and I went in looking for a feel-good, wholesome, lighthearted
romantic comedy, and that's what we got.The actors were all terrific. The "chemistry" was there. The storyline
was interesting (not deep, somewhat predictable, but still pleasant and
interesting). I laughed and smiled a lot throughout the...

Because this isn't simply a "New York" movie, or a movie about a paramedic,

existence can be, and what it takes to be "saved" and find grace in a

Fallen is not your typical suspense film. There is very little gore, a

film; it eschews graphic storytelling for a visual, intellectual approach.

This is what modern-day Hollywood does to most icons, to most of our

new version portrays this sports hero - perhaps the most famous sports
personality in American history - to the other extreme, of course. Why
