Universal
Rare realistic police thriller

9 songs - Unrated Full Uncut Version

HOT!
+ Porn in disguise... but good porn (and good disguise!).

Silver City
Chris Cooper, Richard Dreyfuss
Sony Pictures, 2005
Underrated
+ Earnest attempt at political satire
+ satire and commentary
Lost in the glare of Michael Moore's 2004 pseudo-documentary Fahrenheit 911 was independent filmmaker John Sayles' far more incisive filmic take on politics called Silver City. While Moore's film was a frontal assault on the George W. Bush administration, Sayles' film was less a jab at Right Wing ...

Elephant: A Film By Gus Van Sant
Alex Frost, Eric Deulen
Hbo Home Video, 2004
GVS's "Elephant," all the stonger for it's understatement & restraint.
+ A most thought-provoking film, even if it meanders at times
+ Haunting, strange, not perfect, but still very good....
Utterly uncompromising, I gave "Elephant" five stars for Gus Van Gus Van Sant's simple, straightforward & realistic approach to a Columbine-like shooting (so be forewarned) and his refusal to comfort the viewer with easy moralizing, in an effort (I think) to let viewers react, think and come to ...

Before Sunset
Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy
Warner Home Video, 2004
I have never written a movie review to Amazon before,
+ Love Love Love It!
But this is such a beautiful and touching movie, I had to tell others how wonderful it was. You should see "Before
Sunrise"
first because it makes, "Before Sunset" that much more meaningful. Both films are cinematic masterpieces
I believe. The reason is that both films are so "real" that you ...

An Enjoyable Woody Allen Flick
+ Much better than what most say...
+ Melinda and Melinda - A Surprising Woody Allen Movie Without Woody Allen
Woody Allen is clearly held to higher standard than most film directors. Is this because he has benchmarked the film industry with classics such as Annie Hall and Manhattan? Perhaps it is due to his longevity in an unforgiving industry despite failures, both personal and professional? Is it because ...
