Not a bad movie graphic in many ways
The film is about a study in violence . A man with a good standing in a peaceful community is throwing into a violent situation , and his violent past catches up with the media attention of being a hero . The film has many levels of violence . The true evil violence of the 2 individuals that kill rape for violence sake...

OK movie had me guessing
The Ruins preview is dishonest for portraying the movie as awful . A interesting storyline entwined with good character development . Amazing special effects which make the film . I like the surprise problem , of what or who the movie antagonist is . Why was it there . To protect the sight ? What happens when someone l...

This is a good movie , not a great one ; What would happen if you where framed for murder , in a strange land with strange laws , compared to your own .

This film will not age well , but its entertaining
People looking for a great Jack Nicholson film , with an incredible story should stay away from horror movies . Is the story believable no , or even plausible no , but is it entertaining , Yes .

One of the better movies this summer
If anyone reading this review can remember Space 1999 , which was on the space network for awhile , one can see where the Island got the set and costumes from . Not a bad movie .

Not bad , but could have been a better ending
I believe the movie is about the randomness of life . All the random events , and choices lead to each character's fate . Order through chaos is the movies theme !

Interesting Science Fiction . I found the story interesting , and not too unbelievable . They find a star gate , and the military must find out what it is .

If you compare this film to Friday the 13th , and many other older and new horror films , this film is ahead of most , but not a masterpiece like Alone in the Dark , or The Thing ( 1982 ) . This film has a budget , quality acting , and a decent script . Friday the 13th was choppy in all these categories , and gets acro...

Not a bad movie
Spoilers ! This movie is similar to the 6th sense . It was well placed and suspenseful . The film is an original story . I like the idea of the New York Ranger . Throughout the film , there is little explanation of what is actually going on . My guess would be a demonic entity was involved . I think they were trying to...

Firewall Burns
Firewall burns . Wow , what a ride ! The movie is a thriller ! The story of someone robbing a bank from the inside with a computer instead of a gun is high-tech . The family held hostage is the old school premise of the plot . Harrison Ford has acted in several stinkers , and I avoided Firewall's release . The preview ...

Good family movie
This is a good family movie . I went with my wife and extended family . Children , and adults both laughed . The humor is geared towards middle ground . The facial expressions of Garfield fit the voice ; what better voice than Bill Murry as the sarcastic cat . Murry is sarcastic , and fit the self centered role of Garf...

Good rental
The preview was just horrible . The movie was funny . Well directed , and acted . I like stupid humor and ' Blades of Glory ' has lots of it . Such as the fight at the Olympic podium part . The toilet paper scene , and the sex addict meeting . . Will does a good job , and is not over the top . Jon Herd is a talented ac...

entertaining
I was quite surprised with this one . Hugh Grant is quite the actor when he applies himself . He made this one . He does comedy well in a straight british humour way . I would like to see him do more films like this one . This film is something both genders can enjoy . I wanted to see this one in the theatre but did no...

James Bond gets it right
The first 2 Bond movies where done on low budget , and Goldfinger was the beginning of high budget Bond films . M introduced high tech gagets , the story did not drag with long conversations to fill in time , and the movie had the over the top stunts that make these film ssucessfull . If it was not for Sean Connery act...

A solid film
A solid film . Well , directed , acted , and the story follows the Bible closely . Not as good as ' The Passion ' for the Passion had better actors and Gibson is a great director . However , ' The Nativity Story ' is done on a good budget . One gains a understanding of the pain and sacrifice Mary and Joseph endured . T...

Borderline 6 or 7
Robert Redford is a leftwinger on the political scene , and one sees this with his movie . Even with differnt political views on some issues I respect Redford , he is my kind of leftwinger . This story is about people , or individuals . They maybe criminal , but he looks at people character or lack of , and thats what ...

The people a Jericho face E M P . The E M P wipes out the power . Food , gas and everything else become limited . Social Darwinsim takes , and become like animals . In the end , order is restored . Good acting and well directed . I love how the bad guys can survive the best in such a brutal environment . Totally logica...

Not a bad show . The mayor race is a sign of any power struggle . Fear drive one character run for mayor . The mayor run on common sense . Fear wins in the end with the people for they live in fearful times . I like the gritty realism of the show . People as they are . Selfish , and stupid in bad situations , while oth...

If you like animal movies , this movie will please . My wife likes animals and animal movies , she especially like the parrot in this film . It is geared towards kids , but I laughed at most of the humor . The French fashion character made me laugh , and adds balance to the script . It is a Disney film , with its sappy...

Nielson is hilarious
Only Leslie Nielson could pull this movie off , not Jim Carrey , or Robin Williams . Nielson can play silly comedy straight , and make all awkward situations appear normal . It was original ideas in this comedy that seemed to work . Silly and incredibly close to the cartoon ; this film entertained , and the humor is ge...

Out off all the books I have had to read for Eng Lit this is the best
Compared to 1984 and other boring tripe this film is entertaining . I like how they show the class structure , how one trys not have norms and standards . My wife thought they were snobs , but after years of working with people who act like the audience on the Jerry Springer show I found this movie quite refreshing . I...

I wish Tom Hanks would do comedy again
I am tired of seeing Tom Hanks play over serious roles . I guess it is more accomplished acting , but I really liked him when he did comedy . He does play a good role and of course he is a great actor . I found the film a bit too long . I wish he would try his hand at a different type of character ; he is getting too t...

Good sequel
Spoilers ! This film was a good sequel . I love the voice of Eddie Murphy as Donkey , but the best had to be Puss , the voice of Antonio Banderas . The hair ball scene was great and you would understand completely if you have a cat . In all , the story was a continuation of the first . We follow the lifes of Shrek and ...

Depends on what mood I'm in if it's a 6 or 7 .
Peck's best performance ! Making the natives on his little island have blue eyes , and strangling his buddy at the ball was a chilling performance . Mad , and extreme made his character believable ! I remember seeing this film with my dad when I was 9 ; In Winnipeg we have the Walker theater , they showed this movie ba...

Believe the hype
For once a film lives up to the hype . I found this story interesting , and believable . True stories grab my attention more than the made up ones . I wonder how close the movie is too the facts , considering time restraints , and drama . I never wanted to see this , but we borrowed the DVD from my sister and I was glu...

Sick film
This film is sick , you bet it is . Many people will be repulsed by this work . I myself found this film on the edge of sick to brilliant . It goes through the issue of cannibalism and one eats to live and the morals of surviving on the expense of others . Good criticism of society and we may not eat each other , but w...

Who told the truth what is the truth the answer is they all lie , the story is in the middle some where . Funny how I watched the movie with it drug culture and hedonism . There is no surprise...

The Oldest film I reviewed
We saw this film after seeing the two remakes . It was in the cult section of our video store . It is the first B & W movie I reviewed . The story holds up well ; much better than some of today's horror / suspense films . It would be disturbing to be in a society that has no emotions . No one would believe you if this ...

I have biases , towards sci fi and former Winnipeggers . I like Rod Pipper , and he did much better than the Rock on his first film . This is a neat little film about mind control with lots of violences added in . David Keith another b actor plays one of his better roles since The Thing . The fight between Keith and Pi...

Michael Clayton is an interesting flick . Michael Clayton is similar in style too ' The Verdic ' and has a 70's feel in direction . The viewer wonders what will happen next . I found the movie hard to follow in places . Why would the female lawyer order the murders ? I did not know she was not part of the law firm unti...

On par with the first movie . A Disney type movie that the whole family can view . Parts were funny , and where did they find those old toys I played with back in the 70's . Sappy and mellow in parts , and a Reindeer for comic relief . Worth taking the family out !

Weird
My wife hates this film , and I find it interesting . Well Dave the director makes demented movies and this one is demented . I like the concept of television signals effecting peoples minds , and people losing their concept of reality . The special effects are ok , and the story makes sorta sense , but disappoints .
