1998
Genres: Crime    Drama   

Starring: Edward Norton, Edward Furlong, Beverly D'Angelo, Avery Brooks, Jennifer Lien, ...

Not many people know this, but Ed Norton's character, Derek, is basedon an actual person -- a guy that went to my high school a few yearsbefore I did. He comes to speak every year at an anti-hate assembly.They show us clips of the movie (in my case, my English teacher let uswatch the whole thing) and then he comes out and speaks. It's bizarre,to see him because he sounds exactly like Derek does af...
1992
Genres: Action    Sci-Fi    Thriller   

Starring: Sigourney Weaver, Charles S. Dutton, Charles Dance, Paul McGann, Brian Glover, ...

One would love to have heard the story planning sessions for thisabysmal third film that pretty much put the final nail in the seriescoffin before a lackluster attempt to revive it with another ill-fatedfourth film. Ridley Scott's original was a simple And Then There WereNone haunted house feature set in outer space, but filled withjaw-dropping class and style that made it stand out from the p...
1985
Genres: Action    Adventure    Thriller   

Starring: Roger Moore, Christopher Walken, Tanya Roberts, Grace Jones, Patrick Macnee, ...

A View To A Kill seems to get more than its fair share of criticism. Oftenit is labelled the weakest of the Bond entries, but I don't think this isparticularly true. Personally, I don't even rate it as the poorest of RogerMoore's Bond outings, with Moonraker and The Man With the Golden Gunstanding out in my memeory as less memorable escapades than thisone.It's Moore's final appearance as 007, and ...

This is a brilliant Naval film. The failed midgit submarines, that causedheavy casualties, when attepmting to sink the so called "Unsinkable"Tirpitz. John Mills plays the part of a captain very well, in the struggleto prove them, and then failing. With Lyndon Brook, and Lee Patterson to,itmakes a great movie. Deffintaly worth seeing!...

Starring: Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Josh Brolin, Lymari Nadal, ...

American Gangster has been really hated upon in many of the formerposts I have read. Yet it seems like they are all saying the samething, that Gangster didn't have enough action and was really drawnout. Anyone who has every seen a Ridley Scott film will know that hisfilms are long! Blade Runner, A Good Year, Matchstick Men, Hannibal,Black Hawk Down, Gladiator, G.I. Jane, Thelma and Louis, and ...

In `American Splendor,' Paul Giamatti plays Harvey Pekar, the comic bookcreator who became famous as a recurring guest on the David Letterman Show.

2002
Genres: Comedy    Drama    Romance   

Starring: Hugh Grant, Nicholas Hoult, Sharon Small, Madison Cook, Jordan Cook, ...

I think I smiled all the way through `About a Boy,' a comic near-masterpiecederived from the best-selling novel by Nick Hornby. For the sake ofaccuracy, both the novel and the film should more rightly be titled `AboutTWO Boys,' since the story focuses not only on 12-year old Marcus, but on38-year old Will, a man totally dedicated to the proposition that any manwho so desires can live quite happil...

Genres: Action    Sci-Fi    Thriller   

Starring: Sigourney Weaver, Winona Ryder, Dominique Pinon, Ron Perlman, Gary Dourdan, ...

Review 4 of 4With Alien 3 closing the story arc of the Alien trilogy, this filmbegins with a fresh slate. The Alien films have always been adirector's series but in this film it was the writing that ultimatelykilled it. Resurrection tries to be too many things at once. It has avery artistic and dynamic visual style, but cardboard characters. Ithas a very overt sense of humor, but it is all don...
1977

Starring: Woody Allen, Diane Keaton, Tony Roberts, Carol Kane, Paul Simon, ...

The film that bested Star Wars for the 1977 Best Picture Oscar, Annie Hallis a remarkable achievement in filmmaking that transcends its simple,romantic premise to create a stunning portrait of not only 70's popculture,but of human nature cumulative. Directed and co-written by Woody Allen,whohas since directed other gems such as Hannah and Her Sisters and ThePurpleRose of Cairo, Annie Hall also st...
2001
Genres: Sci-Fi    Action    Thriller   

Starring: Christopher Lambert, Lou Diamond Phillips, Kelly Brook, Ron Perlman, Roberta Angelica, ...

As far as direct-to-video sci-fi, it hardly gets worse than Absolon,and that's saying a whole lot. As with about 97.9% of the people whohave seen this movie, I rented it because Christopher Lambert was init. This movie was bad even by Christopher Lambert direct-to-videostandards. The plot is a ludicrous story of viruses and big business inthe "future". This future doesn't look very futuristic, but...
