A pretty funny disposable comedy if you like Steve Carell and Tina Fey.If you don't like those two actors and their brand of comedy, don't
bother, because the movie doesn't ask them to do anything but play
themselves. However, that was enough for me, and I had a good time with
this film.Tina Fey especially has a way of delivering a line that doesn't even

This movie was a piece of sappy garbage. The nauteously overdone CGI
heaven sequences bring the movie to a halt every time we are there.
Jackson destroyed the few characters (and actors performances for that
matter) who had potential to be interesting: Susan Sarandon, Mark
Wahlberg, Rachel Weiz. The movie is a cut and paste job of the book
that tries to do too much with too man...

Allow me to provide some background information on my relationship with
the films of M. Night Shyamalan: I adored "The Sixth Sense" and still
think of it as one of the best films of 1999 and one of the best
supernatural thrillers in ages. "Unbreakable" was a fascinating take on
the superhero genre. I loved parts of "Signs" to bits and consider the
sequence in the basement towar...

We know that Mark Wahlberg refused to play Rockstar's "Max Payne" game
before performing in this film, but, in addition, I must assume that
neither the director nor the screenwriter ever played this game before,
either. If there weren't so many shots of the background scenery that
tied in with the game (although they were never fully or, in some
cases, partially explore...

I saw that We Own The Night received a standing ovation at the European
critics screening and premiere at Cannes. Well, I can tell you at the
preview screening I saw a while ago in the US, the audience applauded
enthusiastically as well. The audience was totally into this movie in a
way you don't usually see anymore. Not just grooving on it, but
engrossed. Reminds me of The...

Please don't make negative comments like some of the aforementioned
people have been doing if you haven't seen the film yet! I have seen
it, at a press screening last week. Not only is it the best film of the
year so far, it marks a return to form for Martin Scorsese, and ranks
with the likes of GOODFELLAS as being one of the best in his canon of
films.I'm a fan of ...

If you had ever told me that I would end up really liking a movie
starring Marky Mark from the Funky Bunch and the lead singer of Outkast
(the perpetrators of one of the most annoying songs in recent history -
Hey Ya) then I would've laughed right in your face. Come on, a movie
with three rappers (Tyrese throws down the rhymes also, yo!)? There's
no way I would've expected that...

One of the biggest influences for the ideas presented in David O.
Russell's 'I Heart Huckabees' was 9/11. He is quoted as saying in Film
Comment Magazine, 'For about two months after 9/11, people were asking
really profound questions about reality and existence-and then it was
back to business as usual.' Indeed this seems to be the case whenever
bad things seem to happen in lif...

where several people are yelling at each other and you're stuck in the
middle feeling awkward? That is what watching this documentary felt
like.This is a documentary seven years in the making that focuses on an arrogant,
naive and very stupid bartender named Troy Duffy. Back in 1997, he literally

A few years ago I saw this remake of the sixties classic with the Mini
Coopers for the first time and I remember liking it a lot. Now, about
two years later it was shown on television and I just wanted to know
whether I would still like it as much as when I saw it in the cinema.
Well, the answer is yes.The movie is about a team of robbers that will do one final job in
Venice, I...

Mystery films come and go; a precious few stand the test of time. "Charade,'
for my money the greatest whodunit ever made, is a masterpiece of tone,
miraculously blending the disparate elements of suspense, humor and romance
more successfully than any film I've ever seen. Enhanced by the dashing
beauty and charisma of its two stars, Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant, the
sophistica...

As a huge fan of 80s Hard Rock, I was really looking forward to seeing Rock
Star. As the movie started I was more than satisfied. A lot of the early
scenes were funny and entertaining. The concert scenes made me feel like I
was actually there. One major compliment I give this movie is that they made
the songs from the fictional band STEEL DRAGON sound realistic for the time

If one wants to remake a movie, the best option is probably to choose
and original that was good, but not a great classic. Clearly, any
attempt to remake a concept that failed first time around is fraught
with danger, but an attempt to remake a classic runs the risk that
one's film will be unfavourably compared with the original. The
original 1968 film of 'Planet of the Apes' i...

Yes I know. I've heard all the complaints already. "That's not how it
happened" (as if anybody really knows); "All of those events could not
have co-occurred on the same boat in the same trip" (as if anybody
really knows); etc. etc. Well, here's my answer - it's a movie, just a
movie. Don't see a movie to learn about "what really happened" unless

It's hard to really adequately describe this movie. Let
me try.For starters, in spite of the advertisements, it's not merely a remake of
"Kelly's Heroes". Yes, we are in a postwar situation, where a bunch of
Americans are trying to "recover" gold stolen
by the enemy, but that's the end of the similarities."Three Kings" does an excellent job of showing just how gonzo modern

The Corrupter is beset by expectations of Yun-Fat Chow in another John

pre-American Studio), but it does evoke moments that are very John
Woo/Yun-Fat Chow esque ala The Killer and the blind girl.This film is a character study of Nick Chen and Danny Wallace (played
very well by Mark Wahlberg) as cops that must make ...

Indeed Mark Wahlberg is a bit cack in most of his films, but The Big
Hit is a masterpiece of comedy. The action is fun, but is not meant to
be taken seriously. I think that some people might have watched this
film expecting a standard action film, in which case I can understand
their disappointment. It's just good fun and Lou Diamond Phillips is
brilliant. His over-the-top perf...

Boogie Nights is perhaps one of the greatest examples any would-be
filmmaker
should take a long hard look at. Sure, you could spend loads of quality
time reviewing the clasics from Hitchcock to Scorsese; but lets follow suit
for the modern generation and study half-heartedly.Where to begin, I suppose one could look at the film as simply a story,
perhaps even docudrama which fo...

I can't believe that Requiem For A Dream is on the top 250 list but this
isn't. I never thought this movie would be so incredibly underrated! This
was the only movie that made me completely swear off drugs. The characters
are so young and vulnerable and you get to see them slowly fall into this
world of drugs and violence and be completely swept away. In Requiem For A Dream, the ch...

This is a feel good movie, not very deep BUT well conceived, written
and acted. DeVito is excellent as a failing marketing man being
transformed into a thoughtful, caring army educator. As important is
the film's excellent presentation and discussion of the works of
Shakespeare.No surprise, DeVito's self centered abrasiveness meets with antipathy.
