I think that English crime flicks developed a cult following, especially after the work of Guy Ritchie (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch., RocknRolla), although the whole thing has much deeper roots(The Long Good Friday 1980). Layer Cake is also a English crime flick, and if you have seen at least one of these [...]

The Soloist is a very difficult movie to watch. It deals with a lot of society problems and it does so through the story of a single individual, Nathaniel Ayers a homeless man suffering from schizophrenia. Nathaniel Ayers is also an extraordinary gifted soloist that is in love with the music and the instruments he [...]

This French horror movie is usually good. There are a lot of gory moments, and the action is very intense. In a zombie infested France, a paramedic and her husband made their way to an abandoned hospital. They have both been bitten, and now it is only matter of time when they will turn into [...]

Although his previous movie Black Sheep was a beautiful bloody mess, Jonathan King decided to take a different path with this one. Based on a book, Under the Mountain has a more of children’s flick fell to it. The idea and the script are very good, and with a decent budget, this movie, visually really [...]

Although this movie is labeled as a comedy, it shows a bit darker side of junkie life and it furthermore instills the belief that drugs are not that great. Dick uses morphine as a drug of choice. He works in a hospital, so that comes in handy with his addiction. But when his trigger-happy buddy from [...]

This family drama is much tougher than you think, or what the poster would like you to think. It takes a rather light approach to a very difficult story of dysfunctional and estranged families. Frank Goode worked very hard his hole life, trying to raise his four children. Doing so, he got sick, and as [...]

The return of the soldier. Mel Gibson stars in this thriller that has expectedly won over audiences all around the world. But is there any reason for that? I think not. This movie, except for a few jumpy scenes, is pretty much the usual stuff, and it has nothing new to offer. We have seen the [...]

Movies that are with religious subject are very hard to make. Perfect example is The Passion of the Christ, shrouded in controversy. Agora also belongs to this category, presenting historical events and religious prosecution in all its grittiness. Hate, love, doubt, and blind belief present even today are portrayed in a masterful way, and you can [...]

I know that many of you will disagree with the rating of this movie, but I think it is fucking awesome. This is a perfect example of how lack of money pushes director and crew into innovative, original and above all visually stunning solutions. This movie is filled with them, using the noir vibe extensively [...]

Opapatika is a very strange name for a movie and it will stick with you long after you have saw it. It has a decent production values so the special effects and the feel of the movie are good. Director is not afraid to show skulls split open and other gory stuff, making this squirting [...]

When people mention blaxploitation movies, and you do not know what are they about check out this movie and everything will be clear. They are a source of inspiration for many directors like Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. These movies are usually set in the drug infested parts of town, and main characters are pushers [...]

When a movie has a title like this you know what to expect. Pretty similar to Shoot em up, and other em movies, this one incorporates another element to the action and that is that noir vibe that we can feel in it. The first few minutes were just a bloody beautiful mess, that really [...]

If you are looking for some weird and totally whacked out movie, look no more. This is as twisted as it gets, a medical school dropout that is interested in electronics made a perfect gift, a lawnmower that has a remote. While playing with it his fiancée accidentally gets chopped up by it, leaving only [...]

Many will argue that John Carpenter started to lose it with this flick, and that is true to some extent. There a lot of inconsistencies that plague the movie, and that are plain overlooked. For me the most annoying thing was something that I could not quite define, and than it hit, its the camera. [...]

Now here`s a good movie for valentines day, well, at least I think its good. At first it seemed like another American stupid milking comedy that 70 million budget spent on actors and Satan knows what. But when I checked it out it proved rather refreshing. Very intelligent and profound it resonates with most of the [...]

Roman Polanski, a very controversial director(check out documentary Wanted And Desired) made this masterpiece back in 1992, and keep in mind that Mimi is his wife from 1989. The older looks of the movie may put off some people but give it a chance. The acting is awesome, and Peter Coyote did an amazing job [...]

As everybody else I had my doubts about this movie, since the original was a fucking masterpiece. But the new title, cast and director looked promising. And they kept their promise. This is not a remake of the original but an entirely new movie that builds its own world in the swampy and decayed New [...]

I think that only the latest Screamers movie was something that I hated and is based on stories of Philip K. Dick (A Scanner Darkly, Impostor, Screamers, Total Recall,Blade Runner). Directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Cruise and Max von Sydow, this movie could not fail. Well I guess that big budget and great [...]

The latest Spierig brothers movie kicks ass! It is not as funny as their previous flick Undead from 2003, but it delivers on many levels. First of all, the story is quite original with few interesting twists, after that we have the main thing about this movie and that is the visual quality that is [...]

You knew that this day would come, and it came. Huh, I did not see Avatar in 3d, or in a theater or under the influence of drugs, and I guess that influenced my review greatly. First of all I must separate two aspects of this movie, one is the special effects and the second [...]
