88 Minutes (2008) Spille Film

It's quite possibly the worst movie of 2008 so far.. If you like your women half-naked, strung upside-down from pulleys, and sliced like deli meat, this is the movie for you. Whether the victims are more tortured than the plot is a serious question.. Not merely Pacino's over-mannered, near-histrionic performance, but the movie itself could be characterized as busy, busy, busy. It's so full of plot twists and revelations and exploding sports cars that its very perkiness comes to seem comic.. Mark...

Minority Report (2002) Fuld Film Streaming

Ferociously intense, furiously kinetic, it's expressionist film noir science fiction that, like all good sci-fi, peers into the future to shed light on the present.. That "Irrational Man" is a sophomoric simulacrum of intellectual discourse reflects the self-deception at the movie's core.. A highly effective thriller whose futuristic panoramas rival those of A.I. Artificial Intelligence.. The plotting is graceless and the dialogue ham-fisted.. Woody Allen's writing is as sharp as his leading cha...

Tintin: Enhjørningens hemmelighed (2011) Spille Film

Things started to fall off of the deep end very quickly.. The relentless pace is a big part of the fun. Who ever heard of a slow rollercoaster, anyway?. If you're of a mind to believe a dreary and far-fetched thriller about numerology-crazed alien life forms, then you may find the movie mildly diverting.. Even if this hyperactive movie isn't your cup of tea, there's much to admire on-screen, including Spielberg's astonishing attention to visual detail and John Williams' jaunty score.. The Advent...

Deception (2008) Spille Streaming

A would-be erotic thriller with no heat and zero chills, Deception has the kind of glassy, glossy sheen and risible story that mean to suggest Basic Instinct but instead invoke lesser laughers like Jade and Sliver.. Deception would be laughably bad if it weren't so rotely inert.. There's not a twist in this flimsy and moth-eaten plot that isn't both contrived and transparent and not a character who hasn't been hopelessly manipulated by the needs of the narrative.. The plot comes together in Madr...

Safe House (2012) Se Streaming

It's too bad the thin story didn't match the stylishly haunting visuals.. The expanded cast of creatures looks great, dressed and animated in the homespun style Acker calls ''stitchpunk.''. While director Espinosa hones in on the ambiguous battle between Weston's idealism and Frost's cynicism, British cinematographer Oliver Wood - who filmed the last two Bourne movies - shoots the hell out of everything.. "Safe House" has just enough bone density to emit some satisfying cracks and pops whenever ...

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009) Spille Streaming

On a minute-to-minute level, it's an engaging mystery, the kind that rewards our participation with eye candy and adrenaline shots.. Unknown" obviously knows its limitations, and it doesn't bother to rise above them. It just keeps throwing the punches the audience wants and expects. It won't cure world hunger, but chances are it will sell a lot of popcorn.. Terry Gilliam, the veteran film director who cut his teeth as the animation wizard of television's legendary Monty Python's Flying Circus, h...
