Man Denzel really did a great job on his directorial debut; this was a great film and a real emotional story. I remember seeing this film when it first came out on DVD and thinking that I missed out on a great theatrical experience. This has got to be one of the better directorial ...

Half Nelson Ryan Gosling, Jeff Lima
Sony Pictures, 2007
The Struggle Between Opposing Forces
+ A powerful and moving movie + Frailty & Magnificence
"Half Nelson" isn't one of those "inspirational teacher/mentor" movies -- at least not in any generic or conventional sense. There's no triumph, no breakthrough, no by-the-numbers victory in test scores or on the basketball court. This movie isn't about those things, but is concerned with an even ...

Great film, will challenge your views on a variety of hot topics!

Now, this is one helluva movie! I watched 'Crash' again this weekend and I was as compelled now as when I first saw it. This film challenges you, especially if you grew up in the U.S. You know the movies that have you guessing until the end? Think you got it all figured out, only to find out you ...
