Elysium (2013) Fuld Film Streaming

Does a little, sometimes shockingly little, with a lot.. It's like one of those bad "Star Trek" episodes, when Gene Roddenberry stopped everything on the bridge so he could lecture us about the Cold War.. The movie's blue-collar aesthetic, impressive in its vision and kinetics, lacks emotional variety and humor.. The movie is both sloppy in its details and too literal in its thinking. A less blunt allegory might have made for sharper entertainment.. Mr. Damon brings both a weary optimism and con...

Horns (2013) Spille Film

What in the world is Mr. Radcliffe doing to himself in his post-Harry Potter movie career? Movies are supposed to be entertaining, and directors are supposed to protect their actors, not expose them to derision.. Radcliffe looks ready to stretch beyond the black comedy into something grave and mysterious. Director Aja shuts him down - cold. Horns has style to burn, but there's no there there..

Area 51 (2015) 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!!.

Nightcrawler (2014) Download Film

It's a solid first time out in any event, entertainingly obvious at some points, obvious-obvious at others, and jazzed to have a rich subject and a star willing to run with it.. [Gilroy] wants Louis, who perpetrates some ghastly escapades, to epitomize the sick soul of media exploitation, but he also celebrates him as an entrepreneurial go-getter who is just giving us hypocrites what we secretly (or not-so-secretly) crave.. It seems like a lot of satirical hue and cry about a social problem I'm ...

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009) Download Fuld

It's just stupid and inept, which are not uncommon traits at the tail end of the summer movie season.. Betrays the author's intent and makes wholesale changes in the well-known plot.. A big, vacuous, sometimes exciting glamour-puss of a movie.. This pricey, juiceless pulp could never have been killed by critics, simply because it was already dead.. G.I. Joe is a loud but proficient slab of explode-o-rama summer blockbuster nonsense, perfectly entertaining if you like that sort of thing, extremel...

Red Dawn (2012) Online Streaming

Was anybody out there clamoring for a remake of "Red Dawn"? Show of hands? Anybody?. Scenes are rather murkily shot and characters are like cardboard cutouts.. The more ludicrous a concept, the more crucial it is that the director embrace the bigger-than-life absurdity. But everything about this project feels small-time.. Hobbled by a laughably bad script and a uniformly uncharismatic cast.. It's Friday Night Lights territory, but without good writing or acting.. Just really, really lame, right ...

The Lobster (2015) Spille Streaming

The film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it pretends to do nothing else. It embraces a mystery and protects it, and it’s thrilling to behold.. Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. The film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it pretends to do nothing else.
