It's called Let Me In. That demanding title says something about how the gentle poetry of the original gets lost a bit in Reeves' translation.. It's a busy made-up universe -- with rules, rituals, and a deity-tree that could give the Hindu hierarchy a run for its rupee. And it's extremely silly.. Lady is the height of folly, an endeavor as wrongheaded as The Postman, as foolish as any 'vanity' project...
Taking Lives (2004) Fuld Streaming
. Nosedive it does, abandoning all pretense of style and eccentricity for at-times laughable predictability.. . It's slick nonsense at best and for the first hour it's watchable.. Best of all, it doesn't star Ashley Judd, who has made a wearying specialty out of playing tough-tender female cops. Danger-prone Angelina Jolie is on the case here -- an improvement that pays big dividends throughout.....
The Raven (2012) Download Fuld
Horn delivers a star turn as Oskar, a child trying to make sense of a tragedy that still baffles us all.. If imagining a city where people open their doors (or don't) to a boy with a key and a ton of questions is sentimental ... then it is vitally, beautifully so.. It lingers intolerably on some inessential scenes, rushes through others, and fails to provide any motivation either for Poe's devoted...
Scooby-Doo 2: Uhyrerne Er Løs (2004) Fuld Film Streaming
Little more than 91 minutes of cheesy special effects in search of a remotely coherent story.. Monstrously silly.. What I felt as I watched Scooby-Doo was not the intense dislike I had for the first film, but a kind of benign indifference.. . As little as there is to recommend in Scooby-Doo 2, it must be noted that the human cast has done an uncanny job of inhabiting their two-dimensional characters,...
A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) Download Film
Traffics in overly familiar scare tactics, setting up predictable false alarms and telegraphing in advance just when Freddy will pop into the frame and utter one of his labored witticisms.. I did jump a few times, and I liked Haley's dour malevolence, but overall, the new Nightmare on Elm Street is a by-the-numbers bad dream.. Like a cover band with more stagecraft than talent, A Nightmare on Elm...
Self/less (2015) Fuld Film Streaming
Though its main appeal will be to those who read the book and are young adults either in fact or in spirit, "Divergent" does have something for the rest of us and that's the chance to see the pair of performers who make that romantic music together.. It's only the latest indication that Christopher Nolan might be the slyest narrative tactician making movies today.. The elaborately convoluted, soul-swapping...
Shutter Island (2010) Download Film
As senseless, perverse and unwieldy as it undoubtedly is, Shutter Island might be Scorsese's most enjoyable film in a decade.. Not since Raging Bull has Mr. Scorsese so brazenly married brutality to beauty. Not since Kundun has one of his films felt so aspirational.. The strength of the film, like the book, is that it never allows the viewer to feel comfortable with what he is watching.. This is among...
