"The Soloist" Movie Review

0

"The Soloist" (my 1-10 raing: 6) Screenplay: Susannah Grant, based on the Steve Lopez book. Cast: Jamie Foxx, Robert Downey Jr., Catherine Keener, Tom Hollander Rating: PG-13 (thematic elements, some drug use, vulgarity) Commendable ambition but largely unrealized as entertainment. "The Soloist," a highly emotional drama, is an Oscar-bound performance showing for Jamie Foxx which [...]

'Tron: Legacy' Movie Review

0

The Movie Reviews score: 7.2 out of 10 Although Tron: Legacy has some great special effects, it is not as good or as groundbreaking as the original Tron. Tron: Legacy definitely has its good moments and bad moments. Jeff Bridges, who I like as an actor, gave a decent performance but had some really corny [...]

I was expecting 3:10 to Yuma to be good, even before I went to see it. After all, how can you really go wrong with Russell Crowe and Christian Bale in a western? but it turns out I was wrong. It wasn't good. It was brilliant! In fact, it is one of the best movies [...]

Movie Review: Kung Fu Panda 2 (2011)

0

Kung Fu Panda 2 capitalizes on the same techniques that made its predecessor successful: a goofy lead character struggling desperately to fit in; comical character designs and playful animation; and an all-star cast of voice actors with such recognizable articulation that they breach the visual barrier of their 3D alter egos. although the first film [...]

Reviewed: Super (2010)

0

TBA – 96mins – Action/Comedy/Drama – 10th June 2011 Right from the off the premise of this movie appeals to me. I was happy with Kick-Ass and the slightly more realistic approach that they made their 'super' hero take and with Super this promise of an even more ordinary man coming off the streets to [...]

I give director Darren Aronofsky credit for creating such a provocative and alluring spectacle; it's all his doing. I don't think the ballet is any more popular [...]
