āDolemite is my name, fucking up motherfuckers is my game!ā Words of wisdom from Rudy Ray Moore, self-proclaimed Godfather of Rap and best stand up comedian in the world. I donāt know how much of this is true and how much has to do with the guy being full of shit, but I have to admit heās a real character! I saw him performing live…
“In the year 2046, every railway network spreads the globe. A mysterious train leaves for 2046 every once in a while. Every passenger who goes to 2046 has the same intention. They want to recapture lost memories. Because nothing ever changes in 2046. Nobody really knows if that’s true because nobody’s ever come back. Except me.” Thus opens “2046”, Wong Kar-Wai’s latest cinematic experiment and…
What is it with Bobby De Niro? Doesn’t he feel like Acting anymore? Isn’t he tired of poking fun at his tough-guy persona in umpteen comedies or giving unearned credibility to B-movies, allowing them to boast that they star an “Academy Award Winner”? The man used to be Scorsese’s fetish actor and now he’s playing second banana to Dakota Fanning? How the mighty fall! I…

Movie Infos Title: Shakespeare in love Year: 1998 Director: John Madden Writer: Marc Norman, Tom Stoppard Starring: Gwyneth Paltrow Joseph Fiennes Geoffrey Rush Ben Affleck Judi Dench … Normally, I wouldn’t touch a film like this with a ten foot pole. I’m really not a fan of period films; I find them too pompous and restrictive. But with all the praise and Oscar buzz this…
It opens with a bloody, possibly dying John Wick (a bearded, semi-longhaired Keanu Reeves) stumbling out of a carā¦ Then we flash back to a few days earlier, with John Wick being haunted by memories of his recently deceased wife. Heās now all alone in the world, until a dog is delivered to his house, a gift from his wife from beyond the grave….
I loveĀ Jennifer Garner, I love comic books, and I loved Jennifer in her first comic book movie, the unfairly malignedĀ Daredevil. You’d think a spin-off movie revolving around her Elektra character would be can’t-miss fun, at least for me, but it wasn’t meant to be. Marvel’s made some of the best super-hero flicks ever with theĀ Spider-ManĀ andĀ X-MenĀ series, but they’ve also committed such atrocities asĀ Hulk,Ā The PunisherĀ and the upcoming…
Jon Voight stars as Eddie, an Everyman who has to become extraordinary when faced with extraordinary events. To think it was all supposed to be so simple… Eddie let himself be convinced by his buddy Louie (Burt Reynolds) to go on a canoe trip down a wild river deep in the woods. That strip of nature is about to be destroyed by machines and corporations…
If youāre a snob, youāll look down at this film, of course. But if you understand that this is a spoof and that it doesnāt take itself seriously, youāre gonna have a wild time. This movie confirms Trey Parker as the Orson Welles of absurd comedy (well, not really, but heyā¦). His best known work still remains TVās animation sensation āSouth Parkā, but you might…
What makes Back to the Future one of the best movies ever made? Thatās right, I said it. I know it hasnāt been accepted into any serious film canon and that, at best, people will call it a great popcorn movie, but having just watched it for about the tenth time, I can not refrain my feeling that this is a bona fide masterpiece. Inasmuch…
