As a contemporary of Pennant, and veteran of the 1970's and 1980's
terrace culture,I was keen for this film to succeed. Sadly, with some
good intentions, it fails, and joins the other flawed attempts to
recreate the halcyon days of the hooligan. The authenticity of the
background to the film is often well observed. But Director Jon Baird
fails to have the expertise, or ...

Its very rare that a movie like Atonement comes along and leaves me
completely speechless and in complete and utter awe for hours after I
have seen it. You see Atonement isn't just the best movie I have seen
all year, its one of the best movies I have seen in a very, very long
time. And by that I include Pan's Labyrinth, yes this movie is better
than my favourite movie ...

A really wonderful cast and very talented technical crew wasted their
valuable career time, and our equally valuable leisure time, by
bothering to support this utterly predictable and plainly formulaic
piece of commercial junk. The movie is based upon a really good and
very topical idea but both the producers and the director simply
applied the standard Hollywood 'disaster ...

using stem-cell research to engineer a human heart. The project has
reached this point without approval and understandably the heads of the
funding to be nervous. Victoria presses on regardless, changing the
project to start the development of an entire organ chain. Nobody

Adrian Shergold's adaptation of Persuasion was the last in the ITV Jane
Austen Season, and it ended on a high note. Very different style from
the previous two, and is rather sombre in tone, as befits the story and
characters in the novel. There is a voice over so as to enable the
audience to get closer to the character of Anne Elliot played very well
by Sally Hawkins. Ruper...

I was lucky enough to see a preview of this film for free after I
attended a random screening of Scorcese's the Departed. Naturally
hearing that the makers of Shaun of the Dead were behind this I had to
go see it - if a group of people can make a romantic comedy with
zombies, then a buddy cop film HAD to inventive and original.I can safely say that it was. I haven't laughed...

Alas, it appears that, based on other user comments here at IMDb, I am
in the minority on this film. I found it to be tedious and exhausting,
and the effort I put into sticking with it far outweighed any sense of
closure I received from it.Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu appeared at the screening I saw and
introduced his film as the final entry in a trilogy that includes
"Amores Pe...

I'm surprised no one has posted commentary yet on this compelling
telepic. Contrary to what some believe to be an attempt to "soften"
Hitler, what this film manages to do is to add the dimension of
humanity - in a most grotesque form - to the monster he was. Ken Stott is riveting as Hitler in his rise to infamy. Along the way,
he picks up his young, vital niece, Geli (the dynamic E...

This film seems to be getting a lot of negative feedback. However, i
quite liked it.My opinion may be different to the average movie viewer because i could
follow the technical computer terms easily, and i am quite interested
in the subject of computer/internet crime and use.I bought this DVD from a 'b grade' section at a very cheap price, after
reading very little about it here......

"The Statement" deserves far better ratings than critics have given
it.
In the first place, it's NOT about an ex-Nazi in flight. It's about a
French collaborator, the Vichy Government, France's failure to confront the
role its officials -- some still in power -- played in the Holocaust, and
the efforts of right wingers in the Catholic Church to shelter the
collaborator. ...

Sir Michael Caine seems to be spending most of his time these days on
home soil making home-grown movies, some good (little voice), and some
appalling (shadow run). Shiner is Caine back to his best, and it's a
role in which he didn't have to act as he was virtually playing a
character that mirrored his own life, a working class south Londoner,
that has moved on to better things...

Having a bad day? Then check out Mike Leigh's masterpiece; the tale of
Johnny, a mid twenties Mancunian drifter who heads down to London (having
nicked a car) and tracks down an old girlfriend.
He seduces Sophie (the excellent Katrin Cartlidge), unleashes a display of
venom on his old lover, Louise (Lesley Sharp) and staggers off into the
night when both women become too much f...
