A History of Violence (2005) Spille Streaming

Violence is in the spirit of the hardest-hitting film noir offerings from the '50s, but far more explicit.. In A History of Violence, director David Cronenberg's delirious wow of a movie about violence and sex and the American dream, cinema regains all its original power to shock and surprise.. Inside Man is a potboiler, but an intriguing one; perhaps Lee should go Hollywood more often.. Unexpectedly funny, leisurely paced and oblivious to the demands of its genre, Inside Man has a loose, playfu...

Fast & Furious 4 (2009) Download Fuld

Unlike the campy 2001 Vin Diesel vehicle that started it all, what's missing in this third incarnation is any sense of fun, overrun by the forced seriousness of a soap opera mistaking itself for serious drama.. By far the weakest entry of the four.. The whole thing is preposterous. The acting is so awful, some of the worst performances I've seen in a long, long time.. True, it tries to be tongue-in-cheek, but really it's just cheek.. Fast & Furious spends a lot of time advertising how exciting i...

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...
