I must have missed this movie in 2007, but I do not know how. Maybe I was actually afraid to check it out, since it is a bit difficult to watch. But that difficulty comes from the horrible story of abuse, torture, neglect and many more things that happen, now even in greater numbers ( [...]

Another good movie from Clint Eastwood, who could have thought that Dirty Harry would be such a great director. Although, if you compare this movie to the rest of his, you could notice the decline in quality, but than again you can`t make great movies all the time. This time he tried to tackle several [...]

Although religion is not my cup of tea, I found this movie to be fascinating. It is full of positive contrasts and things that are rarely seen in movies of this genre.

After many crappy movies that came out lately, The King’s Speech really gave me hope that the movie industry can still make movies that are worth watching. First of all, lets look at the crew consisting of seasoned actors Colin Firth, Helena Bonham Carter and Geoffrey Rush, that`s it. If you took these actors gave them a stick [...]

This movie is seriously fucked up. It deals with a lot of subjects that are not talked about in the movies in such a blunt way. Pedophilia, strange sexual urges, alienation, midlife crises, and much more will be seen in this movie. But it would be all in vain if it were not for those [...]

When I saw the title of this flick it reminded me of a similar themed movie from 1996 Extreme Measures, but instead of a dumb-ass remake (did anyone said Death At The Funeral), we got a milking drama with sappy theme based on a true story. The director and producers tried to portray the life [...]
