'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.

"Seven Pounds" Movie Review

A melancholic story that doesn't seem to know how to be a film. never, in fact, has so long a screen time been taken to say so little. "Seven Pounds" is a mournful, unmoving movie which does indeed have a plot but which also does indeed flop almost totally for lack of emotional draw. In [...]
