For many Bond fans, the return of Sean Connery in this "unofficial" Bond entry, was an exciting opportunity to experience the Connery magic and charisma before the earlier pre-Roger Moore years. Released in 1983, the film competed head-to-head against Moore's entry, "Octopussy" which, to some critics of note, one of the better Roger Moore efforts. Obviously, this production had a more engaging cast, an entertaining story, and some good actors: Maude Adams and Lois Jourdan as Bond's nemesis than "Never Say Never Again."
While it's good to have Connery back, looking actually fitter than he did in "Diamond Are Forever" in 1971, and wearing a faultless toupee, the film manages to fall short on a number of levels. Viewers should note, ... Read More: >>More Details |

This 1986 movie has three narrative perspectives that run concurrently throughout the film: the evolving relationship between Elizabeth and John; the evolving relationship between Elizabeth and the reclusive artist Farnsworth; and Elizabeth's interactions in NY art circles through her work at a gallery.
In the first, John, who wears nothing but black suits and white shirts and lives in a colorless and impersonal apartment, is shown to be able to feel nothing except through extreme forms of sexual expression. In the second, Elizabeth gradually comprehends the mystical revelry of pure sensation--Farnsworth examining the fish he has caught--that also comes through in his painting. The last--Elizabeth's art world--is the intersection of the two, ... Read More: >>More Details |

L.A. Confidential [1997]starring: Kevin Spacey, Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce, Kim Basinger, James Cromwell directed by: Curtis Hanson June 01, 2006 |

Curtis Hanson has managed to direct a film which captures the late 1940's in both style and spirit. Often films depicting the glamourous side of this era immerse themselves too much in the styles and fashions of the time, rendering the actual characters superfluous to the movie. Not here though - the characters drive the film, blending in perfectly with the directing style swaying effortlessly to capture the gritty and the classic-Hollywoodesque, the guy has done his homework.
Risks were taken by casting relatively unknown non-Americans in the two major roles, a rare thing by a Hollywood studio. It's hard to imagine anyone else but Russell Crowe as the fiery `Bud' and at times Guy Pierce seems a bit awkward as `Exley' - but this isn't a flaw in ... Read More: >>More Details |

Batman has always been a vastly over-rated movie and I find it difficult to understand how it garnered such positive reviews on it's release . Having watched this recently on TV it seems like a good time to look again at this disappointing film.
It has many flaws but chief among these is the casting of 80's "it girl" Kim Basinger. She almost single handedly ruins this film with her unbelievably poor performance, coming across like some am dram second rater. Michael Keaton does some of his best work but is scuppered in the Batman role by a Batsuit which allows extremely limited movement of body and none of neck whatsoever. He walks around like he has a washboard stuck up his back, completely not his fault I understand. Jack Nicholson's Joker is dressed ... Read More: >>More Details |

"8 Mile" is Eminem's very own Purple Rain.
Such comparisons may very well be lazy. But more than that, they're true. Take an urban kid living in trailer park squalor. Give him dreams of music and an ability beyond his intelligence. And a spirit-crushing job. All you need to do is give him a child-beating father and you've got Purple Rain. But it's much better than that. Gone are the fancy flourishes of 80's rock flicks. Gone are the wild concert sequences and the embarrassing hair styles. What you've got is a film that reflects the bored, hopeless existence of trailer park America in a way as compelling as anything since the nihilistic Kids. "8 Miles" isn't anything even vaguely glam, despite its world of Gangsters, ... Read More: >>More Details |

A good value DVD which offers up the two `unofficial' James Bond movies, that is, the two not made by Eon Productions. Both movies have reputations based on received wisdom, dating from the initial critical reaction when the films were first released; however, in both cases, received wisdom is unfortunately wrong.
Released in 1967, Casino Royale started life as a serious Bond film, designed to rival (and cash-in on) the Eon series. When these plans came to nothing, the film was instead touted as a spy spoof, to star Peter Sellers in the Bond role, but due to Sellers' unprofessionalism (leaving before his scenes were finished) and various other production nightmares, the film gradually mutated into the overblown tribute to 1960s' pop culture that we all know, but ...

Action thriller about a young man (played by Chris Evans) who answers a call on his mobile phone from a woman (played by Kim Basinger) who claims to have been kidnapped and needs his help and the lengths he goes to help her and stop the people who have kidnapped her and her family. A good action film featuring one of my favourite young actors Chris Evans in the lead as well as Brit-flick favourite Jason Statham as a menacing lead villain. A good way to spend 90 minutes or so with never a dull moment. Oh and one more thing: mobile phones feature heavily in this film (as you may have guessed from the film's title).

This is a great thriller from the director of Shoot Em Up and the wonderful Guillermo Del Toro executive producing.
The story is focused on the trials and tribulations as she has to contend with an abusive husband, middle class ennui and a gang of brutal thugs. It's tense and suspenseful with a palpable sense of menace and danger. When Kim Basinger's character has had enough she grabs a tool box and the rest is some real cat and mouse fun as the tables are turned on Hass and his gang of cruel youths! Features some great gore set pieces and an ending that took my breath away! Highly recommended. >>More Details |

9 and 1/2 Weeks is a good movie made by a great director. Showgirls is a silly, fun movie.
Wild Orchid is easily the worst movie i have ever seen. No joke. It is laugh out loud bad. As a M.Rourke and a 9 1/2 weeks fan I am astonished that Rourke and the once famous Jacqueline Bisset (Bullitt- S.McQueen) appeared in this soft porn, badly made movie. Director Zalman King's should have been arrested for crimes against Cinema-goers after the movie's release. Rourke stars as an aloof gazillionaire named Wheeler who longs for the human touch. Carre Otis is Emily,a naive,virginal American high-flying Lawyer who knows six languages (but can't act) and Jacqueline Bisset is Emily's scheming mother Claudia. It's set in the beautiful city of Rio de Janeiro. Though the movie ... Read More: >>More Details |
