As I left this movie, someone said "How nice to see an intelligent movie!"The risk going in was that it would be ONLY an intelligent - or at least clever - piece, all period manners and costumes. In fact, with all the Oscar Wilde wit which sounds wonderfully fresh here, there are also rich moments of emotional depth throughout this amusing but also quite moving film.One the...

"Croupier" is a British neo-noir. It has a detached character (or even
better, two characters) who progressively get involved in a shadowy
world from an apparently safe beginning, it has voice-overs, lots of
artistic and original swearing, a depressing atmosphere and if you
don't feel like lighting a cigarette with a Zippo after the movie is
over, you're dead.

As a very young child, I grew up on the 1961 101 Dalmatians. I loved the show, and I remember thinking that it was one of Disney's best. So when the 1996 live-action remake came out, I had my doubts that anything could be as good as the original. I was wrong. This movie is absolutely fantastic! It is beautifully written and the dogs are so cute and loveable... but I think...

Before I review this film, I want to mention that I've seen it about ten times and have yet to stop laughing at any of the jokes. This is one of the best written and acted comedies that I've ever seen. The plot is airtight, and the jokes are perfectly timed and delivered. This is due in large part to the spectacular cast of the film. Jamie Lee Curtis, Johh Cleese, Michael Palin...

This movie made from Agatha Christie's novel is all about dotty characters, and not really about crime. Christie was the master at crafting characters and places. These were the essence of her novels, which placed them apart and well above more routine mystery stories.There's Miss Marple, the epitome of the spinster lady of good manners and breeding, if a little on the inquisitive ...
