Then came “The Happening”, a rather ridiculous B-movie, and “The Last Airbender”, which I enjoyed when it…
“[Action filmmakers] are the most cinematic directors. They’re taking cinema and making you hard – and making you come, actually!” – Quentin Tarantino I truly love action movies.

And Elvis people can like The Beatles. But nobody…
