I really thought that this movie would suck big time(suck lol), but it turned out to be a heart-warming comedy that leaves viewer interested in destinies of the characters. The leads are phenomenal, I knew that Ewan was a versatile actor and Jim just showed that he can play almost anybody and make him funny. [...]

This Belgian flick deals with the hardships of one teenager.

Coming to us from famous director Adrian Lyne(Lolita, Fatal Attraction, Nine 1/2 Weeks, Flashdance) this movie tackles a more serious theme then his previous projects. Visually very impressive and content-wise just plain beautiful this bomb from the eighties can still evoke emotions(that is greatly due to the amazing performance by Tim Robbins). Jacob Singer is [...]
One more of the horrors that is based on true events. If you want to enjoy in this movie, please see it now and do not read what is about to follow(as one of the imdb comments stated). . . . . Now lets begin. This movie could be awesome, but few things got in [...]
When you read the title of the movie you know it is going to be good. I mean this is not some marketing scheme, but it has an actual connection to the story. Before I start reviewing the movie a few notes on its authenticity. The events about the research of the paranormal and its [...]

Here comes another great French horror flick. This one too is based on true events, although loosely I can imagine that worse things than this happened. With a bit of research you can find out that the similar story happened to an Austrian couple. So Clementine is French teacher working in school in Romania, and [...]
Here`s another movie that deals with serial killers. This one is based on a life of one of the most perverse and sick serial killers that ever lived. Of course, we are talking about Albert Fish. The facts that he was an elderly man, and that he committed these atrocious acts in the 1920s are [...]
This movie is not a classical low budget blunder trying to cash in on the fact that it’s about serial killer. Granted, the budget was small,but that did not made a big impact on the movie. Script is well written, and constructed. Realistically portraying the torture in his childhood years, that later on led to [...]
David Helfgott is a child prodigy. He plays the piano like no other child, and as he is growing up his father keeps pushing him to reach his limits. You often see this kind of the abuse in young tennis players, and I guess that extends to any other type of competition. Pushed beyond its [...]
This what an adventure movie should look like, well adventure/action movie. Story follows Frank Hopkins, a Pony Express courier, who travels to Arabia do enter a dangerous race with his horse Hidalgo.

This movie is based on a true story of a man who revolutionized drug smuggling in America.

Oh boy, here`s the best exorcism movie since the original Exorcist, if not even all time champion, because it`s based on true events. And when I say based, I do not mean that they fabricated most of the movie like Texas Chainsaw Massacre or The Stranger, I mean that literally everything you see did happen [...]
Oh boy, this is one of my favorites. Yes, it`s a TV flick, and yes there is some stupid elements in it(like the backwardness of the soviet union is overexagerated, and some determining characters) but the rest is just perfect. First of, great cast, Stephen Rea and Donald Sutherland did their jobs perfectly, and to [...]
