Insidious 3 (2015) Download Film

Surprisingly thematically rich for the third installment of a horror franchise.. I leapt out of my seat and grabbed the arm of the critic sitting next to me so often (and he did the same, although he shall remain nameless) that you'd think we'd never seen a horror movie before.. You sort of want to give the movie a pass. But given its distinguished forebears, Insidious: Chapter 3 doesn't quite live up to expectations.. The result is a warm-hearted frightening, about love and loss and, yes, next ...

Signs (2002) Fuld Streaming

Turns out to have few thoughts and no thrills.. Shyamalan's by-now trademark spookiness is starting to play like a CD consciously designed to duplicate the success of an album that sold 10 million copies.. There's plenty here that testifies to Shyamalan's exceptional talent.. One of the most effective movies so far at capturing a jittery nation's case of the yips.. One creep fest of a movie.. Ultimately, Signs -- as original, interesting and ambitious as it is -- is a post-9/11 movie of possibly...

Black Hawk Down (2001) Fuld Film Streaming

Compelling account of the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu.. Black Hawk Down superbly visualizes journalist-author Mark Bowden's bestselling 'tale of modern war,' detailing a U.S. military misadventure in the Somalia of 1993.. Films like this are more useful than gung-ho capers like Behind Enemy Lines. They help audiences understand and sympathize with the actual experiences of combat troops, instead of trivializing them into entertainments.. A first-rate war movie that presents its subject so horrifyin...

Insidious 2 (2013) Fuld Film Streaming

A movie can have a superb story, amazing cinematography, and mesmerizing writing as well as directing, but without the talent to deliver it all, it finds itself lacking. Great!!. A mess from start to finish -- though, judging by the ending, this story won't be over any time soon -- Insidious: Chapter 2 is the kind of lazy, halfhearted product that gives scary movies a bad name.. The best movie I've ever seen. amazing in every acting of the players as real and natural.. The excellent performances...

Inside Man (2006) Se Streaming

The acting is sometimes shockingly bad, but generally the script doesn't ask much of the actors, and the combat is effectively staged and often thrilling.. Some sequels suggest that no one involved with a franchise really cares anymore.. If they ran these scenes at normal speed, would 95 dreary minutes become a much more expedient 20 to 25?. Even past the midway point, it's all working -- it's taut, it's funny, it's trenchant, it's stylish. And then it isn't.. Unexpectedly funny, leisurely paced...

Poltergeist (2015) Download Film

I found myself admiring the movie's stubborn adherence to its own universe and logic.. There are some jumps but few legitimate scares, unlike director Tobe Hooper's original, which, although similarly bloodless, still stands as one of the scariest movies ever made.. With its James Bond-on-acid action scenes and puzzle-within-a-maze-within-a-puzzle mind games, Inception is certainly the most daring and original blockbuster of the year, as well as a visual tour de force. If it only had a heart.. I...

Escobar: Paradise Lost (2014) Spille Film

When you have the fortune of landing an actor like Del Toro, it's almost criminal to spend so much time watching the scales fall from an innocent's eyes when we could be watching a master actor convey quiet, sleepy-eyed, mumbling menace.. All the popcorn season really wants is a good reason to see super-fit bodies flying around on a big screen, and M:I:III gits 'er done.. Whatever your feelings about Cruise, Mission: Impossible III is nirvana for thrill seekers.. While the film captures some of ...
