Goldfinger could best be described as the quintessential, definitive Bondfilm, the first of the series to set the necessities of the entire saga inmotion. It is also the best of the Bond movies, arguably the most suaveandsophisticated, far superior to the Roger Moore era and those who followedinConnery's footsteps. It is the Bond ultimatum, so to speak.Goldfinger was the first of the iconic legacy...

Here is a tragedy -- a great film doomed by a terrible title.I saw this movie as "Duck, You Sucker" in the theater in 1972 or '73. Istill have images and haunting music burned in my brain from it. Ithas, for one thing, one of the biggest real explosions ever filmed, anabsolutely awesome blast using real high explosives that makes today'sfiery spectacles pale. I think the whole production c...

OK, I had several advantages in watching Gladiatress...- I had read the terrible reviews and had the lowest possibleexpectations, so I wasn't going to be disappointed.- I watched it with a glass of good wine and in the company of twofriends who had happy memories of their fun time as extras (and we evenmanaged to catch glimpses of them) - I recognised every single locationshot - all within a few m...

Gangs of New York is just perfect entertainment. It is an enthralling,bloody, melodramatic epic that more than justifies its two and one half hourrunning time. In Gangs director Martin Scorsese spins another tale of theNew York underworld but with a twist. Instead of the mid-twentieth centuryorganized crime milieu of Goodfellas, Scorsese ventures back to the 19thcentury to show us the origin of th...

After engaging in an effort to find a good review - much harder than Iever imagined it would be - and finding the movie listed at the bottomof the barrel, I felt almost an obligation to go see this on openingday - either to prove the critics wrong, or to get fodder for ascathing letter to Jim Davis. I ended up with neither.The problem, admittedly, is what some critics have said: Garfield isold and...

Ghost is one of my favorite films. It is romantic and touching. Ghost showsthe love that transcends even death. The chemistry between Demi Moore andPatrick Swayze is incredible. The way they look at one another is sexierthan any of those very graphic "love scenes". They make a real romanticconnection just through their eyes. Ghost not only has wonderful, likeablecharacters in Sam Wheat, Molly ...

I'm rather pleasantly surprised after seeing Ghost Ship…I expected it to bea lot sillier, more dumb and inferior than it actually is. Still a long wayfrom being a good horror film but a step in the right direction, to say theleast. Cast and crew paid attention to building up a horrifying atmosphereinstead of attacking the audience with lame and violent killing scenes.That's an effort that get...

I came to the film with low expectations. I was simply stunned by how goodit was.Angelina Jolie is an absolutely PHENOMENAL actress. Her performance alone isworth watching the movie for. But unlike show-stoppers like Marissa Tomei in"My Cousin Vinnie," merely shines the brightest light in a luminescent cast.The cinematography was innovative, but not distractingly so-- "GirlInterupted" shines prim...

I would consider myself to be a movie buff and I live and grew up inMassachusetts. I must tell you that Ben Affleck has done an outstandingjob in his directorial debut. In casting his brother Casey you maythink that it's just nepotism or giving his brother a break. No. He isthe absolute perfect person to play this role. Because they know thearea they have made one of the most authentic movies ...
