Like professional conjurers, writer-directors Veronika Franz and Severin Fiala are masters of diversion.. The Gift starts out like so many other thrillers before it - with an attractive, well-to-do couple purchasing a big new house - and then beats its own, uniquely tense and twisted path from there.. A satisfying directorial debut from writer, producer and actor Joel Edgerton.. [An] expertly crafted...
Daredevil (2003) Spille Film
Convincing in the physical demands of the role, Affleck persuades us of the pain of sightlessness and supersensitive hearing, although writer/director Johnson's scrappy construction fails him and everyone else as the showdown approaches.. Blending suspense, humor, period detail, interesting characters and bringing together a complex plot in an immensely satisfying way, [director Roger] Donaldson really...

Prisoners (2013) Spille Streaming
If you are an "X" maniac, Singer's given you the movie you've been hoping for.. The results are both dazzling and intimate, clever and - during one tour-de-force sequence - spectacularly funny.. The filmmakers doesn't sweat the fact that Eddie is a chemically enhanced fraud. What scares them is any possibility of alienating the movie's target audience with a downer ending.. A film that seems headed...
Olympus Has Fallen (2013) Se Fuld Film
While Gerard Butler is no Bruce Willis, his Mike Banning is a better facsimile of John McClane than the guy Willis is pretending to play these days.. A big chomping horror delight, Dawn of the Dead reworks director George Romero's zombie classic with gobs of blood, buckets of black humor and enough cocky style to induce giggles between shivers.. Fuqua doesn't deliver on what he has set up.. It's silly,...

Abernes planet Revolutionen (2014) Se Streaming
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is the best and brainiest blockbuster of the summer, the kind of movie you hope for when you pay your money and buy your popcorn.. Reeves directs with great dynamism, and his scenes of masses of apes swinging through treetops and swarming through San Francisco streets are rousingly staged.. It is certainly thrilling to see how Reeves and his CGI wizards bring their hordes...

Unbreakable (2000) Fuld Film Streaming
Long before these came up on screen, however, Unbreakable had defined itself as a big disappointment.. Unbreakable is as compellingly watchable, stylish and intriguing as its predecessor, its ending has almost the opposite effect on the overall picture.. The presence of pop culture refs via comics makes quite notable the absence of any humor or sense of fun, just as it makes its pretentions to deep...
Illusionisten (2006) Fuld Streaming
Underneath its hocus-pocus is a compelling story, very well told.. The story may be less than credible, but the performances are mostly good, and Giamatti makes an especially strong showing.. There's nothing here but wreckage. "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows" is so ineptly made that the story is advanced solely through announcements.. A pleasant diversion serious enough to offer a little soul.....
Lone Survivor (2013) Fuld Streaming
V won't win the Subtlety in Film Award, but fans of '70s movies especially will recognize that it's hardly out of line with the tradition of speculative fiction during times of strife.. Fast & Furious 6 is much like the other Fast & Furious films. Which is to say it does its thing pretty well.. Berg avoids jingoism. These are men doing their job, one that is unfathomable for most of us.. Berg's...

V for Vendetta (2006) Fuld Streaming
As an action movie V for Vendetta is a dud -- far too long at nearly two and a half hours, with flat, grungy visuals, choppy editing and no sense of urgency.. A welcome blast of pop subversion.. This is just darkness played bright, a disposable object but hardly objectionable.. For all its anti-establishment esprit, it's more a case of Z for Zzzz.. Richly satisfying entertainment the way movies are...
Into the Blue (2005) Se Streaming
The film proves that Gosling has refined taste in movies, and that he's a quick study, but not that he has much to say as an artist. Not yet, anyway.. A chimeric stroke job that leaves you utterly unfulfilled.. Unbreakable is as compellingly watchable, stylish and intriguing as its predecessor, its ending has almost the opposite effect on the overall picture.. Whereas The Sixth Sense left audiences...

Lost River (2014) Download Film
It's an oneiric hymn to destruction, an Armageddon anthem - a movie to see, if at all, under the influence.. By the time the film is over you may feel as if the 12 year old inside of you has been utterly wowed and that the adult is still going, 'Hmmmm...'. At heart, "Lost River" is a midnight movie for those ready to find it and go with the flow.. Thrill-kill plots, cardboard characters and zap-pow...
The Wolverine (2013) Se Streaming
The film is a misconceived misfire, over-solemn for its first two acts and overstuffed with BLAM! POW! TEDIUM! at the climax.. It restores the tarnished lustre to this most fan-beloved of Marvel characters by doing precisely what Chris Claremont and Frank Miller's near-sacred 1982 run did: It pumps some feeling into the guy along with his muscles and steel talons.. A refreshing summer cocktail of...

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 (2014) Download Fuld
[It] smells very much like a movie with money on its mind - not altogether successfully balancing its loftier ideas with a sense of superficial whimsy and Vegas-meets-Wizard of Oz production design.. The film shows precious little hunger and no sense of game.. If it's more talky and less satisfying than its predecessor, the propulsive The Hunger Games: Catching Fire - largely because the conclusion...
Dawn of the Dead (2004) Fuld Streaming
Save your quarters for the video game.. The new version has its share of disturbing moments, but writer James Gunn and director Zack Snyder have stripped away the social satire of the original and put little in its place.. The new Dawn won't be revered like the old one, but if there's a sequel, I'll shamble instinctively to the theater.. Scarier, funnier and more entertaining than it has a right to...
The Transporter Refueled (2015) Fuld Streaming
Cheap silliness abounds, including car chases that are more about loud crashes and CGI than the thrill of speed.. This insidious tale of a mother-son bond gone haywire is squirm-inducing stuff. It has cult potential stamped all over it.. The tension never lets up.. Tightly controlled in its depiction of a family dynamic that's a little too late for counseling, "Goodnight Mommy" is sporadically skillful...
The Purge: Anarki (2014) Download Fuld
The central premise remains as patently absurd as ever in this noisy, self-serious sequel to James DeMonaco's surprise 2013 hit.. The Catholic Church has nothing to fear from this film. It is not just tripe. It is self-evident, spirit-lowering tripe that could not conceivably cause a single member of the flock to turn aside from the faith.. Ultimately, it's a work of fiction that, translated to another...
White House Down (2013) Se Streaming
Wonderfully orchestrated, mindless, summer-action fun.. "Horns" is a good-ideas-gone-wild movie that leaves the best of itself behind.. If all you're after is a pair of mismatched heroes wisecracking their way through a series of explosive, well-mounted set pieces, look no further.. "Horns" shifts from nifty Gothic thriller to obvious but meaningless allegory.. Formula action films don't come much...
The Hunger Games (2012) Download Fuld
Director Gary Ross' adaptation, co-scripted by Collins herself, isn't quite as crackingly paced as the novel, but it will more than satisfy existing fans of the trilogy and likely create many new ones.. Director Gary Ross generally avoids the elaborate exterior shots and special effects that dominate high-concept blockbusters.. Ross moves between action and human drama with nimble awareness of the...
