483,873 | 1,416,505 | 117,110 | 6 | The Muppet movie with the best human cast | The Muppets are back ! And they're having another great adventure . The story seems like a poor excuse to let the Muppets do so more and new crazy things . But does it really matter ? I don't think so , it's very entertaining and good for more then a few laughs . The characters are highly amusing and Sam The Eagle as a... |
484,093 | 1,416,505 | 403,508 | 6 | Be aware , it's a chick-flick ! | It must be really hard to make a chick-flick . Take a couple of young female leads , some strong and some insecure characters , throw in a couple of love stories , preferably one about a forbidden and / or impossible love , some personal problems and death and you have basically all the ingredients you need . But then ... |
484,528 | 1,416,505 | 465,234 | 6 | It serves its purpose well enough . | I've seen the first movie " National Treasure " but I basically remember nothing about at it , so it really didn't made a lasting impression . I'm sure that in a couple of months from now I will have forgotten all about this movie as well , since its entertaining and all but also all pretty forgettable . The movie serv... |
484,355 | 1,416,505 | 36,719 | 6 | Just one of those typical ' 40's WW II movies . | Often problem with these war time made WW II movies was that they were all basically the same . They of course all had a different story but were still all the same in terms of storytelling , overall style and character portrayals . In that regard " The Conspirators " is one of those dozens of typical made war time mad... |
484,833 | 1,416,505 | 389,722 | 6 | Would had been nice if it had an actual story in it . | This is a rather good genre attempt , that is good looking and for the fans of the genre is still a good watch , but overall it's lacking too much with its story-telling to consider this a truly successful and great genre attempt . I think one of the problems with this movie is that it can't seem to decide for itself w... |
483,755 | 1,416,505 | 79,817 | 6 | Too slow , too boring , too average to be considered a worthy sequel . | This movie is not bad but it is simply too much of a repeating session of the first movie . The movie moves very slow and only really starts to become interesting after an hour . Luckily the movie begins to get pace a lot from the moment Rocky begins training again , which are also the best parts of the movie . The dra... |
484,424 | 1,416,505 | 59,800 | 6 | One of the weaker Bond movies . Still good entertainment to watch of course ! | I consider this movie to be one of the weaker one's out of the long series of Bond movies . Yes , sure it still has an entertainment value but it lacks some of the fundamental things that made most of the other Bond movies so good and fun to watch . Perhaps the thing that I find to be most disappointing about this movi... |
483,938 | 1,416,505 | 403,539 | 6 | Nothing special or spectacular , just a well executed thriller . | Still Nacht is average in many ways . It's one of those typical movies were there is not an awful lot wrong with but it also ain't exactly anything special to watch . A typical movie . Watchable but not that highly recommendable . A thing that could have helped to make this movie a better one is the script . It's obv... |
484,682 | 1,416,505 | 36,630 | 6 | Doesn't quite live up to its reputation . | I was expecting quite a bit from this movie , as it's often being credited as being an intriguing WW II ( anti ) war documentary , that puts you right in the middle of things . It does feature some unique and straight-forward battle images but to me it just didn't all worked out . To me this movie looks and feels more ... |
485,551 | 1,416,505 | 244,244 | 6 | An action movie that desperately tries to be more . | Swordfish certainly ain't no bad movie but the way they tried to give this movie many layers and deeper meanings and tried to explain the motives of the main ' villain ' is totally pointless and makes this movie drift away from what it should had been ; Some mindless action-fun . A movie like this should need no mind... |
484,645 | 1,416,505 | 48,554 | 6 | The rubber-suit strikes back . | Watch out ! The Gill-man is back ! " Creature from the Black Lagoon " already was a very average monster-movie . It was an irresistible movie in a way because of its typical ' 50's monster movie clumsiness and obvious fake sets and costumes but by no means a classic in my opinion , unlike lots of others seem to feel ab... |
485,179 | 1,416,505 | 44,186 | 6 | Fairly dull western that fortunately gets better toward the end . | This really isn't the most exciting or original western ever made . It's a fair enough attempt and the frame work for many other later ' 50's westerns is already slightly present in this movie . Real problem with the movie is its story , though its concept definitely sounds intriguing and strong on paper , it just does... |
485,427 | 1,416,505 | 94,933 | 6 | Doesn't quite work out but still a perfectly watchable thriller . | This is a movie that tries hard but it doesn't quite takes the cake . The movie tries to put in many different successful thriller elements but the movie is nothing more than a mixture of styles that weakens the movie as a whole - and with a flawed and simple story in it . The movie is quite short and this is definitel... |
484,057 | 1,416,505 | 82,334 | 6 | Good concept , not being told very interestingly . | This was a movie with some great potential , also since its actually based on a ' true story ' but the movie however really doesn't feature the best or most interesting storytelling , which in the end just lets makes the movie seem like some wasted potential . Problem is that the actual concept of the movie is very exc... |
484,456 | 1,416,505 | 240,354 | 6 | Another Newark athlete helps Edison and Co . out . | The athlete shows some great flexibility here ! . . . Seriously what is this guy doing ? It looks ridicules . He is simply flexing his arms and legs in different positions while constantly holding a wand in his both hands . Of course they simply wanted to test as many movements as possible to see what the possibilities... |
485,338 | 1,416,505 | 101,602 | 6 | A bit of an overdone Columbo entry . | Out of all Columbo movie this one perhaps is the one with the most B-movie like feeling over it , at least in the movie its opening minutes in which the actual murder , like always , occurs . It makes the movie feel kind of lame and overdone with all of its usual Columbo movie ingredients . Everything , from its emotio... |
484,677 | 1,416,505 | 13,341 | 6 | The fist teaming up of Laurel & Hardy is a mixed one . | This is the very first movie with Laurel & Hardy as a comical duo , even though the two appear as enemies in this movie instead as friends . So I don't really consider this movie as a Laurel & Hardy picture . The first halve of the movie is the best . Stanley Laurel plays the maim character in the movie and he yet agai... |
485,584 | 1,416,505 | 48,528 | 6 | A late swashbuckler that forgot to be entertaining . | It isn't until the end that the movie turns into a spectacular and true swashbuckler . In between there are too many long moments in which basically nothing is happening . Also often the action just seems to drop out of nowhere and the movie features some awkward and forced humor , that perhaps even is a bit embarrassi... |
484,540 | 1,416,505 | 66,931 | 6 | The murder without a body . | This Columbo movie is quite different , since it doesn't actually feature a body . Yes , there has been a murder committed but halve of the movie spends its time on actually establishing if really a man had been murdered , since there are no traces , except an eye witness who saw the murder from a great distance . Of c... |
484,282 | 1,416,505 | 56,139 | 6 | Plain and simple good fun | This is a rather enjoyable little early British comedy . Amazing to see how actually little British comedy changed over the decades . This movie is in the same trend as for instance the Pink Panther movies ( although obviously less brilliant ) and gives a fun take on the murder-mystery genre . A genre director George P... |
484,960 | 1,416,505 | 253,200 | 6 | Pleasant little movie . | It's a typical light-heavy movie , if you know what I mean . It's a movie that's heavy on its subjects but gets always told in a light and somewhat fun way . Typically British . It makes the movie at all times a pleasant one to watch . The movie has an original way of storytelling , with the use of flashbacks . The fla... |
485,198 | 1,416,505 | 110,322 | 6 | Might very well be the most overdone drama out of cinematic history . Powerful but not always effective . | Although certain good enough and beautiful looking " Legends of the Fall " is a drama that goes totally over-the-top and its story is filled with way too many dramatic elements and story lines to fill an only 2 hour long movie . First of all I can understand how a person could love this movie . All of its sequences are... |
484,191 | 1,416,505 | 70,694 | 6 | Atmospheric made but badly told movie . | Odd is perhaps the best word to describe this movie with . Even for an ' 70's horror flick it's quite an unusual movie , that is good looking and all but yet never really gets off the ground , mostly due to its storytelling . Everything in this movie screams that it's not being made by the most experienced and talented... |
484,347 | 1,416,505 | 94,910 | 6 | Fun movie that unfortunately gets worse toward the end . | This was a good and enjoyable ' silly ' comedy , that is filled with a whole bunch of crazy fun characters . A typical great ' 80's comedy , with also some great ' 80's comedy stars in it . The movie is truly uplifted by its cast . Dan Aykroyd is really great . It's funny but I don't I've ever seen him play the main ch... |
484,244 | 1,416,505 | 361,596 | 6 | Michael Moore vs . George W . Bush . A very one sided war . | Some more objectivity wouldn't had been a bad thing . This documentary is extremely one sided and is nothing more than an 2 hour Bush-bashing . I'm not a Bush fan , not at all and I dislike his politics and personality but it doesn't seem fair that they only showed one side of this story in this documentary . A documen... |
484,790 | 1,416,505 | 70,679 | 6 | That Shaft character is one violent cat ! | Let's face it , none of the Shaft movies are exactly masterpieces but the character Shaft surely is a classic , who delivers some classic one-liners . In this Shaft ' adventure ' the creators obviously wanted to manifest Shaft as the African-American answer to the successful James Bond franchise . For most parts they a... |
484,165 | 1,416,505 | 161,010 | 6 | Fair enough little WW I production . | When looking at this movie , it becomes obvious that it didn't had a very high budget . Not only its settings are kept cheap and simple but also the overall style and atmosphere of the movie . Nevertheless the movie is good enough and also serves its purpose well enough . In my opinion it's always interesting to watch ... |
485,206 | 1,416,505 | 36,455 | 6 | Laurel & Hardy needed money ? | It seems pretty odd as to why both Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy ever agreed to be in this little propaganda movie , to promote wood and wood by-products , for the use of average everyday products . Thing that this movie taught me the most is that Laurel & Hardy don't look good in color . This movie is from 1943 and Lau... |
485,586 | 1,416,505 | 105,813 | 6 | More was to be expected from a movie with a premise and cast such as this one . | Roger Donaldson always distinct itself by making mediocre films . Just think of movies like " Cocktail " , " Species " , " Dante's Peak " and the remakes of " No Way Out " and " The Getaway " . Now most of this movies showed some great potential but yet somehow Donaldson manages to not let this movie pass the mark of a... |
484,026 | 1,416,505 | 48,387 | 6 | Late Fritz Lang movie doesn't know to impress - or even entertains . | Of course Fritz Lang was one of the greatest directors in the ' 20's and ' 30's , with movie classics such as " Metropolis " , " M " and " Dr . Mabuse , der Spieler - Ein Bild der Zeit " but the movies he made later in his career , from let's say the ' 40's on are hardly on par with his work from his glory days . You s... |
484,374 | 1,416,505 | 86,034 | 6 | Decent Bond | Of all the Bonds that has been made , this one is far from my favorite . But that doesn't mean it's a bad movie . Still I must admit that this Bond has some excellent villains although general Orlov ( Steven Berkoff ) is highly underused . Still , Kamal ( Louis Jourdan ) alone is an entertaining villain . I also like t... |
485,201 | 1,416,505 | 79,574 | 6 | James Bond tries too cash-in quickly , after the sudden success of Star Wars . | It's no secret that this movie was made only because to the sudden and unexpected huge success of the science-fiction movie " Star Wars : Episode IV - A New Hope " , that changed the genre for ever . " Moonraker " wasn't planned as the ' next ' Bond movie . In the late ' 70's the Bond movie and character started to get... |
484,400 | 1,416,505 | 323,944 | 6 | Well made but it lacks a certain depth . | I still don't know what to really think of this movie . On the one side it's a really made movie , that got well directed and features some fine performances from its actors . But on the other hand it just isn't the most interesting movie ever made because it lacked a certain depth for me . For instance this movie does... |
484,385 | 1,416,505 | 28,683 | 6 | Perhaps Garbo's finest performance . | Basically Garbo is still the only reason why I still like this very heavy handed melodramatic movie . " Camille " is a movie about the all old themes love and death . The one moment it's happy and the world is a wonderful place , while the other life is depression is it ever could become . It's an movie with constantly... |
485,384 | 1,416,505 | 36,376 | 6 | Weak story and perhaps only watchable for the fans of the genre . | The father would not be proud of his son . The story is extremely weak and to be honest I didn't liked it . I mean , come on , is Alucard / Dracula junior deliberately trying to get in trouble ? Its not like he's avoiding problems , instead he creates them on his own in this movie without even worrying about them . Ano... |
484,196 | 1,416,505 | 59,557 | 6 | Flint's first adventure . | It's quite obvious that the whole Austin Powers franchise got based on the Flint movie . It even references to it itself . Both franchises are certainly also comparable in its style and comedy but of course with a difference that this movie is not just set in the ' 60's but it actually got made during the ' 60's . Just... |
484,743 | 1,416,505 | 124,298 | 6 | Sort of wasted potential but still entertaining enough . | The movie has a good comical premise ; A well educated but without any life-experience adult , who has lived all is life in fallout shelter , goes out , into the big world for the first time in 35 years . Having grown up in a ' 60's environment , he of course also runs into some big differences in language and morals .... |
485,517 | 1,416,505 | 384,537 | 6 | Wasted potential . | Not that the movie is very bad but it's just that the movie , with its atmosphere and premise , had so much more potential than the eventual end result . The movie suffers from numerous things . One is the build up and story flow . In all honesty this movie has an incredible bad build , which ruins the tension and myst... |
484,070 | 1,416,505 | 80,319 | 6 | The theme song is more memorable and legendary than the movie itself . | This is a fairly amusing comedy that has some good strong female characters in it and also makes a good social statement . However as a comedy it falls flat at times , since it heavily relies on just the three main characters , played by Lily Tomlin , Dolly Parton and Jane Fonda . The movie begins good and sort of sati... |
485,363 | 1,416,505 | 19,465 | 6 | Their purple moment isn't their greatest moment . | This is a comedy that lacks some good laughs . Even though the movie still is good and enjoyable entertainment of course , I don't think I laughed even once . This is probably due to the fact that the movie doesn't have any slapstick moments in it and instead relies on just one comical situations the boys has got thems... |
485,481 | 1,416,505 | 73,812 | 7 | Whoa ! | This rock-opera is a cult camp-classic alright . It's über-weird and is filled with some fantastic visuals . No , this most certainly ain't a movie for just everyone but when you are a fan of these sort of movie's you'll absolutely adore this one as well . The movie has no dialog and is completely sung , which in my op... |
484,365 | 1,416,505 | 73,820 | 7 | Typical but fun and good all . | These ' 3-in-1 ' type of horror movies were quite popular in the ' 70's . Even though they are never truly brilliant movies ( the stories told within it are simply too short for that ) but they are always enjoyable to watch . This movie is also like that . Movies like this don't get made now days because now days they ... |
483,731 | 1,416,505 | 372,784 | 7 | Batman re-imagined . | It's interesting to see a whole new different take on the Batman franchise . All of the previous Batman movies are ignored and this movie completely re-imaginings the story and the character of Bruce Wayne / Batman . I'm sure that the fans will like this new different approach towards the franchise . The character of B... |
483,865 | 1,416,505 | 73,802 | 7 | Well made - but lack-lusting ' 70's genre movie . | This movie is another fine example of typical ' 70's movie making . The movie is however far from a ' 70's classic . The story is too poor for that and the movie overall lacks some action . It's not that the pace of the movie is kept low . The movie is fast enough and its well directed and constructed . It however is a... |
484,388 | 1,416,505 | 109,040 | 7 | The movie that launched Jim Carrey into orbit . | This is one crazy comedy that is totally being carried by Jim Carrey's performance . Sort of the problem with comedies though is its simple written story . It's as if the best writers don't want to touch the comedy genre with an 10-feet pole and they are above the genre , which is sort of understandable since comedies ... |
484,537 | 1,416,505 | 462,504 | 7 | Good movie but weak in its most crucial moments . | This is definitely a very professionally made movie with also some great acting but the movie falls short with its most crucial and emotional moments and also ends on a very false note . It's also made fairly obviously throughout this movie that it had a fairly low budget . Some of the special effects are simply below ... |
484,164 | 1,416,505 | 43,983 | 7 | The one with Fred Astaire dancing on the ceiling . | So , basically everybody around the globe knows - and has seen the famous dancing sequence with Fred Astaire dancing on the walls and ceilings . But how many people actually know that , that sequence is from this movie ? I'm surprised that a movie with such a famous sequence isn't better known . In essence " Royal Wedd... |
484,722 | 1,416,505 | 382,625 | 7 | Certainly not as bad as everyone makes you believe it is but also too long and it tries to tell way too much to consider this a great movie . | Perhaps the most anticipated and talked about movie of 2006 , by both positive and bashing negative parties ( mostly from religious persons ) . Controversy had always surrounded this movie and the book it was based on . It's such a shame that some people just can't separate fact from fiction and just take the movie for... |
484,603 | 1,416,505 | 248,667 | 7 | He might arguably have been the greatest but this movie certainly isn't . | This biographic movie about Muhammad Ali is a solidly made but also flawed one . Biggest problem with the movie is its storytelling . Everything is happening way too fast , the one moment he is getting married and only a few moments later in the movie he is divorced and remarried again . This all happens in a time span... |
484,593 | 1,416,505 | 101,371 | 7 | Good movie , too bad that it's so moralistic . | This was a movie I really enjoyed watching . It on top of that had a first rate cast , with lots of big names in it . Too bad that the movie with its themes is too moralistic though . The movie tries to send out a message and tries to make a statement but it does this too forced with its sequences and distracting story... |
484,538 | 1,416,505 | 462,538 | 7 | Could had used some more Spider-Pig . | This movie started off really well and promising and seemed like an extremely entertaining animated movie , focusing on the famous animated family the Simpsons , of which the first television series episode first aired in 1989 up till still this very day . However as the movie progressed more and more problems raised .... |
484,602 | 1,416,505 | 359,715 | 7 | Quentin Tarantino's early work is good and interesting enough to watch but will be probably too amateur looking for most people . | We will never see this movie in it's full glory . The final reel of this movie was destroyed in a lab fire that broke out during editing and the only surviving parts were edited together to make this 34 minutes short movie . Still you never get the feeling that you're ever really missing any sequences while watching th... |
485,082 | 1,416,505 | 118,571 | 7 | Entertaining action non-sense . | The story is totally unbelievable and stupid but this is simply not a movie that is trying to be believable and smart , it's made to entertain and entertain it does ! What is it with German directors making patriotic American movies ? You have Roland Emmerich who made the patriotic movies " Independence Day " and " The... |
484,484 | 1,416,505 | 290,329 | 7 | Pretty strange but I like it . | I don't like all of Takashi Miike's movies but I found this one to be pretty enjoyable , despite it being quite an odd movie . But well , that's just Miike's thing , so be sure what to expect before watching this . Miike's handles all kind of different styles and themes and blends them together into this movie . It has... |
484,624 | 1,416,505 | 493,430 | 7 | Not as good as the first but just as fun . | I have never been a regular watcher of the show " Jackass " on MTV but when I did watch it I often did enjoy its craziness and fun of it all . I also liked the first movie , " Jackass : The Movie " a surprising lot . " Jackass Number Two " is not as good , fresh and original as the first movie but its done in the same ... |
484,405 | 1,416,505 | 361,240 | 7 | Way better than you would perhaps think . | Well , honestly did you expected this made for TV-version to be better than the Stanley Kubrick 1960 movie starring Kirk Douglas ? Fact is that for a TV-movie this one is about as good as they can get ! It's a well made one that is also good looking . What a nice surprise this movie was ! I understand it needed to be s... |
485,534 | 1,416,505 | 56,335 | 7 | I enjoyed it ! A great light-movie to watch . | Of course this movie is being often compared to " The Great Escape " . The similarities between the story lines are striking and some of the sequences are almost exactly the same . Only keep in mind that this movie was actually released a year before the great escape and this movie its story is based on the real events... |
485,451 | 1,416,505 | 112,740 | 7 | Two disagreeing ' captains ' on one ship . . . both are right . | Crimson Tide is a movie that has grown onto me in the last couple of years . The movie had never been really any of my favorites , I never really cared much about the story and never thought the movie was tense enough for a thriller , in which never enough happened . This has changed the recent years . I now see how ... |
484,116 | 1,416,505 | 361,462 | 7 | Good , fun , fan-made movie by Mark Hamill . | The movie is basically a ' fan ' movie , made with limited resources and shot with hand-held cameras . Only important differences between this and other fan movies is that this one got made by Mark Hamill , who of course has a bigger foot between the door than any other fanatic amateur film-maker . This means he got th... |
484,425 | 1,416,505 | 26,126 | 7 | Too much story and too few gags . Still an above average Laurel & Hardy adventure . | This Laurel & Hardy movie is not among their best . It has way too much story and subplots present and because of this the boys are not given the full opportunity to show their skills and antics in this movie . There are lot of scene's in which Laurel & Hardy are not even present . There is an unusual amount of dialog ... |
484,563 | 1,416,505 | 105,019 | 7 | Fun surrealistic comedy . | When you're watching an Alex van Warmerdam movie you know you're to get something interesting and unusual . He always fills his films with a large amount of surrealism but at the same time knows to keep his films accessible and watchable for the main stream public . It might very well be true that this movie is his bes... |
485,354 | 1,416,505 | 281,766 | 7 | Quite the charmer . | The title sounds as if this is some bad horror but this is a quite charming little Christmas special from 1965 , starring the teenager Liza Minnelli in her first leading role . With this movie Minnelli goes into her mother's footsteps . She dances and sings her way through this movie . She of course had a great example... |
484,436 | 1,416,505 | 337,978 | 7 | Doesn't really feel like a Die Hard movie but it's a great action flick on its own . | Just what I had feared after watching its trailer for the first time ; this movie doesn't really feel like its part of the Die Hard movie franchise . Main reason for this is its approach . All of the previous three Die Hard movies had a certain realistic action approach . The movies at all time felt like these events a... |
485,330 | 1,416,505 | 91,209 | 7 | Average thriller with one big plus . | And that one big plus is Rutger Hauer . He really plays a very memorable scary psychopath , one of the best out of movie history . I really feel that at least an Oscar nomination would have been a proper thing . The story is kind of thriller average , as a matter of fact there isn't really a story . It's a road movie /... |
484,650 | 1,416,505 | 780,583 | 7 | Enjoyable unpretentious simply B-horror fun at 30 , 000 Feet . | This is a rather enjoyable simple horror movie , that was obviously not made to win any awards but to bring some good entertainment instead . The movie is filled with all stereotypical shallow characters you would expect . I mean , OF COURSE there also just happens to be a convict aboard with a cop attached to him , pr... |
483,983 | 1,416,505 | 61,391 | 7 | Good humor but the movie drags on for too long at points . | The humor is good and typical British . Most of the jokes work really well , it's just too bad that some of the sketches are dragging on for too long and the movie itself feels a bit long . Man oh man , let me start of by saying that Peter Cook and Dudley Moore are horrible actors . It was really painful to watch at ti... |
484,591 | 1,416,505 | 70,634 | 7 | Not the most spectacular Dracula movies but yet it's also one of the more solid ones . | This is the eight Dracula movie entry from the Hammer studios , which began first in 1958 with the movie " Dracula " and ended in 1974 with the movie " The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires " . All of these Dracula movies are of variating quality but they all have in common that they are entertaining to watch , like basi... |
484,265 | 1,416,505 | 112,641 | 7 | Moments of greatness but overall a flawed gangster epic that is still great to watch though . | Casino is by no means a bad movie but it rather is a flawed one , which is mainly due to the story and its characters . The first two-thirds of the movie is certainly great but after that the movie takes some negative turns and it loses some of its credibility and I lost some of my interested . No question in my mind... |
483,897 | 1,416,505 | 73,906 | 7 | Greatly watchable adventurous movie , that could perhaps had used some more adventure and action though in parts . | This is a perfectly watchable adventurous movie to watch , with a great cast and a good story , based on true events . It's interesting to note that the story of the movie is based on true events . It's above all for most part an adventurous story , with all of the usual ingredients you would expect from an adventurous... |
484,193 | 1,416,505 | 35,169 | 7 | Good but certainly not the best the genre has to offer . | This type of movies were very popular in the late ' 30's and early ' 40's . Lots of classics were made during that time period and lots of actors got launched to stardom , thanks to movies like this . However as far as ' 40's screwball comedies are concerned ; this really isn't the best movie that the genre has to offe... |
484,284 | 1,416,505 | 237,539 | 7 | Enjoyable movie . | This is an enjoyable little Italian / Swiss production , that mostly gets carried by its characters . The movie is sweet , little and innocent . In other words , perfect harmless entertainment . The movie feels warm and sincere , this is due to the setting of the movie ( Venice ) and its characters , that are all far f... |
484,582 | 1,416,505 | 56,700 | 7 | Fun entertainment , only a bit too long though . | This is a well made entertaining little movie , told in a wonderful fairytale kind of way and with a great atmosphere , that makes you feel like a child again . This movie had all the potential to become a real great and classic children movie but unfortunately the movie makes some bad choices . The movie can be seen a... |
485,046 | 1,416,505 | 52,303 | 7 | Decent enough , fairly early , genre movie . | The movie has a pretty interesting approach for ' 50's standards , by inserting lots of flashback sequences , with the home-front , that however also happen to be incredibly sappy . It does at parts make the movie a melodramatic one . Submarine movies just never have been any of the best or most exciting , action packe... |
484,653 | 1,416,505 | 316,824 | 7 | Worth seeing . | This movie is a watchable one . It's not really a rememberable one though but when you decide to watch it , it won't bore you . When the movie began I was kind of worried . The editing was poor and the acting horrible B-movie like and it had a made-for-TV kind of look . But thankfully all those things improved later as... |
484,573 | 1,416,505 | 209,958 | 7 | Creativly original . | This movie is definitely a case of style over substance but the style is good and certainly more than unique on its own to make " The Cell " a memorable and above average movie . " The Cell " is beautifully looking with impressive sets , costumes and make-up . Yes , it's real eye candy to watch all . The movie has some... |
484,145 | 1,416,505 | 17,813 | 7 | One of Laurel & Hardy's earliest attempts is an enjoyable one . | Although by no means a comedy must-see , " Do Detectives Think ? " is a worthy movie from Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy , who in 1927 just began working together as a comedy team , for the Hal Roach studio's . It's a movie that is good thanks to its little comical moments . It's not the sort of movie that is hilarious c... |
484,439 | 1,416,505 | 43,709 | 7 | Original early thriller by John Sturges , starring Ethel Barrymore in a late role . | The movie begins like a very typical Victorian-like costume movie , with real ladies and gentlemen but soon the movie makes a thriller turn , which makes the movie as a whole a surprising and fine contrasting one . It has a real good thriller story , that above all is also really original and everything gets uplifted a... |
483,851 | 1,416,505 | 66,412 | 7 | A great early genre example . | This is a great typical Italian Giallo genre example , that has all of the usual and required elements in it , such as lots of fake blood , bad dubbing , weird sound effects , some surreal dream-like sequences , a lunatic murderer , an eerie atmosphere and lots of sex and naked women ( for some reason they even start t... |
484,321 | 1,416,505 | 21,644 | 7 | Not grand . | This is far from being the best Laurel & Hardy short , even though it surely does have its moments . It's a bit of a disappointing entry , in the long series of Laurel & Hardy shorts . There is almost absolutely no story present and the movie relies too much on funny sounds and too many long comical sequences . I mean ... |
484,246 | 1,416,505 | 390,521 | 7 | Educational-entertainment . | Granted that this movie is better as entertainment than as a thought provoking insightful documentary but that doesn't mean it's an unpleasant watch of course . At first I thought that the entire concept of the documentary maker eating at McDonalds 3 times per day for 30 days straight to proof that fast food is bad for... |
485,324 | 1,416,505 | 70,328 | 7 | Good Bond movie with a few minor problems . | Of all the Bonds that have been made , this one is probably the darkest . One of the things that I am missing is the humor . It misses the typical Roger Moore James Bond humor with as a result that the movie becomes a bit too serious . Sure it has some funny moment but it just misses the Roger Moore touch he added to t... |
485,341 | 1,416,505 | 481,976 | 7 | Like a " The Twilight Zone " episode , only it leaves a too unsatisfying feeling afterward . | This movie is a rather surprising unknown Dutch production , that has a really great atmosphere and one fine , filled with potential , main concept . What mostly drives this movie is its look and atmosphere , with some nice cinematography as well as good use of old archive footage . It can be described as something com... |
484,371 | 1,416,505 | 264,464 | 7 | Fun . . . | The movie is great fun to watch , however the quality isn't that high . The amazing thing is that the movie is based on true facts . If you don't know this the movie seems totally unbelievable and silly . It's great fun to see how Frank Abagnale Jr . ( Leonardo DiCaprio ) commits fraud time after time and impersonated ... |
483,846 | 1,416,505 | 180,093 | 7 | Not emotional , not shocking . . . not a masterpiece ! | This movie promised to be a lot but overall it only disappointed me . This movie promised to be emotional , shocking , confronting , nightmare giving . . . the greatest anti-drugs movie ever made ! It wasn't any of it . There are several problems I had with this movie . The first and biggest was the style . Now , I lov... |
485,334 | 1,416,505 | 303,816 | 7 | Eli Roth ; the new master of horror ! | What Eli Roth always does well with his horror movies is using all of the usual horror clichés but he still knows to deliver the in a refreshing and original way . It's the reason why his movies still work out surprising , despite following the usual and expected formula . In a way he is also always subtly making fun o... |
485,442 | 1,416,505 | 65,528 | 7 | Amusing but also fairly shallow anti-war movie . | It's not really a movie that forcedly tries to be funny but nevertheless a movie that's filled with silly and quirky characters and situations . This combination makes this a sort of an original as well as amusing funny movie . But because of the many characters in the movie , none of them really get developed strongly... |
484,056 | 1,416,505 | 130,563 | 7 | Going on a treasure hunt with Lt . Columbo . | This is definitely an original and different Columbo movie . Just like the previous " Columbo : No Time to Die " , this movie its story got based on an Ed McBain novel . Not sure what the story was behind adapting these McBain novels , since its stories , atmosphere and settings have basically very little to do with th... |
485,267 | 1,416,505 | 74,328 | 7 | Good last Bernard L . Kowalski Columbo movie . | Bernard L . Kowalski was probably the most consistent director out of all the Columbo movie directors . His Columbo movies are not necessarily the best ( though " Columbo : Death Lends a Hand " is still one of my favorite Columbo movies ) but his ones are always really solid and bring out the best of the classic succes... |
484,940 | 1,416,505 | 69,902 | 7 | Not the fastest or most clever Columbo movie but its writing makes this a solid one . | It's not the best Columbo movie out of the series but it's just as good and perfectly watchable as most other Columbo series from the long running series of fine movies . The movie features some very long sequences , of which some are really too long . Some sequences just go on and on without getting swiftly to its poi... |
484,627 | 1,416,505 | 69,903 | 7 | Robert Culp is on a killing spree again ! | One year after Robert Culp appeared as the killer in the Columbo movie " Columbo : The Most Crucial Game " he returns once more to play the role of killer in this movie but in a totally different role this time of course . It was the third out of four Columbo movies he ever appeared in and I must say that he probably p... |
484,185 | 1,416,505 | 69,905 | 7 | Simply fine Columbo entry . | The movie is set in the cosmetic world . With that concept the movie is perhaps a bit ahead of its time but of course its a theme of all times . Over the centuries women always tried to look younger their age . There is basically nothing wrong with this movie and it's a good average entry into the long successful runni... |
484,190 | 1,416,505 | 69,904 | 7 | Martin Landau and Martin Landau versus Lt . Columbo . | This is a well directed Columbo episode , with also some good character but the story just doesn't really know to interest enough and doesn't appear as well layered and constructed as was often the case with a Columbo movie . This also goes for the killer's plot to kill his uncle . It's quite simple and doesn't seem as... |
485,302 | 1,416,505 | 454,841 | 7 | Some nice effective modern horror . | I'm not against remakes in general , since sometimes modern movies can give ' older ' movies something extra with a makeover with todays technology and standards . Doesn't mean that I just agree with all remakes , since some of them are just plain pointless since the original ones are already brilliant at their own rig... |
484,729 | 1,416,505 | 53,085 | 7 | Mummy movies never has been the best horror movies around . | For some reason mummy movies never have been the most suspenseful or atmospheric creepy movies around . Not this version , not the 1932 and also most certainly not the 2001 version , for obvious reasons . It's the reason why mummy movies aren't that well known as other genre movies as for instance Frankenstein and vamp... |
485,522 | 1,416,505 | 18,083 | 7 | And from nuts to nuttier ! | Definitely not the best silent Laurel & Hardy comedy short but like all Laurel & Hardy movies ; it's all very enjoyable to watch . The premise of the movie is simple ( like it should be in a Laurel & Hardy movie ) and relies on the mishaps of the two boys as inexperienced and of course very clumsy waiters , at a fancy ... |
485,369 | 1,416,505 | 360,717 | 7 | Great visuals can't hide that the story is nothing more than one unlikely event after another . | Was " King Kong " a bad movie ? Absolutely not . Was it disappointing ? Slightly . " King Kong " certainly does have it's moments of greatness . What else was to expect from the director who before dazzled the world with his Lord of the Rings trilogy . Most of the emotions work out well in the movie but are perhaps not... |
484,830 | 1,416,505 | 382,189 | 7 | An European independent movie , that is all too aware of it . | I wanted to see this movie for a long time . I recently finally got the chance to see it and although it was a good movie , it was not the must-see I heard it was and I expected it to be . This movie was praised at all kinds of festivals and website's that are respectable and thrust worthy when it comes to the ' better... |
484,048 | 1,416,505 | 18,106 | 7 | Not really a Laurel & Hardy movie and the remake is superior . Neverheless a most excellent comedy from the silent era . | Yes , the movie has both Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy in it but it's not a ' Laurel & Hardy ' movie . They're not a comical duo in this movie and they actually share very little sequences together , since Hardy's role is only a bit part . The real main character of this movie is perhaps James Finlayson . Not that I'm c... |
485,562 | 1,416,505 | 109,458 | 7 | William Shatner killing again ! | 17 years after his previous Columbo movie appearance , William Shatner again plays the murderer within a Columbo movie . His role is better and more interesting than was the case in his previous Columbo movie appearance but his performance isn't really though . Shatner goes terribly over-the-top with his role and he ac... |
485,333 | 1,416,505 | 83,133 | 7 | Sex kills . | Who would had ever known that this obscure little unknown horror comedy would be such a fun one to watch ! This is a real enjoyable horror spoof , from the period before spoofs even became popular . The movie is so silly with its comedy that it becomes really hilarious to watch in parts . The movie is filled with some ... |
