Here is another Alexandre Aja (Haute tension, The Hills Have Eyes, Mirrors) movie. It is not scary as the rest of them, nor better but it is a decent little thriller with some brutal scenes  (actually two). After workaholic executive Angela gets stalled at work on a Christmas Eve she will be pursued by a [...]

If you like Coen brothers movies, maybe it is time to check out this flick, their directorial debut. Also the first major film of cinematographer Barry Sonnenfeld, who later became a noted director(Men in Black, Wild Wild West, Turok). You might see some similarities with this movie and The Man Who Wasn’t There, a later Coen flick. [...]

Although this movie may seem to be something that is going to be remembered, this is not so. It is pretty mediocre, interesting enough for one viewing and maybe a second one with the someone, but it does not have that replay value that it should. A classic tale of a fucked up cop family, [...]

This is a remake of Claude Chabrols La femme infidèle, and this theme can also be seen in newer movies like The Other Man. It is very delicate and touching, especially for the men population. In the words of Homer Simpson: It is funny because it`s true, and in this case it is not funny at [...]

This is a remake of the original Danish thriller Nattevagten, and it is not too shabby. The cast is pretty good, especially Nick Nolte and Ewan McGregor, but you can see young Josh Brolin showing off his talent. A young law student takes up a night watchman job in order to get more money in a medical examiners office. [...]

This movie is something that you would usually see on the cable in some sleazy motel, but it is way better than that. It manages to be very amusing and entertaining, we get interested in the characters and their faiths and the script is just perfect. Edward is a compulsive gambler and he just cannot [...]

After The Lost Boys this is Joel Schumacher next big movie, and I must say he did a pretty good job. A couple medical students are intrigued by what comes after death, so they decide to conduct an experiment where they will be dead for a few minutes and than revived in hopes of seeing [...]

Well, this is a back to back review of the classic and its reincarnation from 2005. The original flick as always was a low budget thriller with excellent directing that over time became a cult movie and the second one tried to cash in on that and to modernize the approach to the whole story. [...]

This is a pretty original idea, I mean so far I have not seen some movie that deals with the guys in the armored trucks transporting money. And I hope that someone will realize this and make a decent movie about it, with all the explanations about the armor, weapons, locks and everything else. Now [...]

Enemy of the State is one of those movies that will be watched in the future as visionary work of our generation. Keep in mind that this movie came out in 1998, and today I believe that most of the devices and tracking systems seen in this flick are in action. Sort of 1984 vibe [...]

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 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 [...]

Directed by Clint Eastwood this thriller about a cat and mouse game between an aging detective and the serial killer is somewhat a beginning of Clint`s transition towards more serious subjects in his movies. After the latest chase with the killer Terry McCaleb has a heart attack and after the successful transplant he is approached by [...]

As you probably know this is the remake of 1987 original starring Terry O’Quinn (Lost, now we know why is he so handy with knives). As always this is a dangerous enterprise and rarely the movie succeeds in efforts to be better than the original. It all depends what are you expecting out of the [...]

Another vigilante movie, this one reminds of the Saw series. After his wife and daughter die in a robbery, Clyde Shelton will have to fight to punish the responsible ones. Since as we know, justice system is fucked he will take justice into his own hands and hold accountable everyone that was involved in the initial [...]

Although I had reservations about this flick, it turned out to be good. Michael Douglas and his adversary Jesse Metcalfe showed like a good combination, sort of teacher and apprentice thing going on. Jesse Metcalfe is news reporter that suspects successful lawyer (Douglas) of tampering with evidence. In order to prove that he is guilty [...]

We continue our Undercover Cop movie theme with this little flick from 1999. It resembles Deep Cover in many ways but is still very original. Of course, you already know the plot, a cop goes undercover to infiltrate a drug selling crime gang with its boss known as the God (LL Cool J, his strong [...]

If you like police movies this movie is for you (the title says is it all). Freddy Heflin (Sylvester Stallone) is a slightly deaf and almost retarded sheriff of a small New Jersey community that mostly consist of policeman. But a corruption investigation will stir up the muddy waters in this otherwise quiet community shrouded [...]

Brilliant performance of Jeff Goldblum is just one of the great things in this flick. It presents the story of Howard Pigeon businessman situated in Europe and his attempts to kill his high maintenance wife. Clumsy and paranoid Howard is a classical representation of businessman gone mad, and if you add to that failed marriage and annoying [...]

Directed by Bill Duke that you best know from the movie Predator, Deep Cover, as its title says, is a story about a policeman who goes undercover to try to bring to justice a drug smuggling and distributing organization. Of course in a process he losses his identity and gets tempted by all the power, [...]
