Die Kinder der Seidenstraße (2008) Online-Streaming-

As anyone who has ever attended a party knows, people under the influence tend to be supremely dull unless you're one of them.. "The Notebook" is a skillfully made movie, with sequences that may haunt you after you leave the theater.. Director Roger Spottiswoode uses the children and action sequences to good effect, but a lack of chemistry between Rhys Meyers and Mitchell makes the love story fizzle.. Busy, unfocused, yet still acridly funny and moving.. The film's closing credits ironically emp...

Redacted (2007) Streaming-

War was ever a Kubrick-ian hell-ride, futile, fundamentally unheroic and de-humanising, but now it's mocked by a mad multimedia accompaniment innocent of all real ethical, moral and humanitarian value.. . Humor and warmth abound.. ...the film retains many of the cinema verite qualities of Broomfield's previous works, lending it a powerful, devastating immediacy.. Films about the Iraq war continue to come and, I hope, will keep coming. Among the most recent, The Battle for Haditha is especially n...

Talk to Me (2007) Beobachten Film

[A] well-acted film about making the move from the street to the mainstream.. A very honest yet curiously affecting experience.. The movie's occasional narrative shortcomings are offset by the performances, which are uniformly fine.. Thanks to its two leads, the film remains vivid, honest and deeply felt.. Talk to Me is more than enough fun as a showcase for Mr. Cheadle's wit and spontaneity and as an inside look at the airwaves' transition from warm and fuzzy comforter to the anything-goes ente...

Army Go Home! (2001) Download Film

It's a well-done satire that only the thinnest of skins would find insulting.. The movie duplicates exactly my experience with the book, although I must say I was thankful to be spared serial outbreaks of hearty Greek dancing.. If you can get past the idea that Buffalo Soldiers ... has any real relevance, you are likely to enjoy its sitcom snap and the performance of Phoenix.. The result is far from perfect, but to its many merits, add timing. You never get a movie with this kind of story in mid...

The White Countess (2005) Online-Streaming-

The White Countess, although it has its share of Masterpiece Theatre moments, is another film to remind us just how cosmopolitan is the Merchant-Ivory filmography.. ... The White Countess is so bloodless it all but cries for a transfusion.. So powerful is Fiennes that his performance carries the last act of an overlong film that is not as shapely as we've come to expect from Merchant and Ivory.. The White Countess is never less than lovely to look at, and sometimes much more.. This is Merchant-I...

Valiant (2005) Film Abspielen

Awesome as director this is the first time that they have been together again Since training day powerful movie go see it!!!. Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. It's watchable. But try explaining all of this not-particularly funny adult history, humor and clutter to a child.. Apart from the puns and regurgitation jokes, the story of a group of carrier pigeons on a death-defying mission in 1944 Europe will fly over the heads of actual youngsters.. Arguably ...
