King Arthur (2004)

Clive Owen, Stephen Dillane

Touchstone / Disney, 2004

Tristan without Iseult, Merlin without magic
I've seen this film countless times, and have yet to tire of it. Excellent cast -- I always like Ray Winstone, and it's a nice introduction to Mads Mikkelsen -- great action scenes (I like Clive Owen's one-handed sword flip from a galloping horse), good story. I think ...

Quadrophenia (Special Edition)

Phil Daniels, Leslie Ash

Rhino / Wea, 2001

Teenage Wasteland
There are any number of reasons why rock concept albums do not necessarily translate to cinema, but director Franc Roddam takes the double-album of the same name from The Who and delivers a classic and timeless exploration of rebellion and turf warfare. With the ...

Cold Mountain

Jude Law, Nicole Kidman

Miramax Home Entertainment, 2004

common people overwhelmed by war
I loved the book and found the movie just as good, which is unusual. The Battle of the Crater [not in the book] is especially good--awful, really. Confederate armies on the verge of defeat are blown to Hell by an underground mine. Well-fed, well-trained Union ...

Robin Hood the Legend - Robin Hood and the Sorcerer

Michael Praed, Nickolas Grace

20th Century Fox, 1993

The Best "Robin Hood" Ever Made!!!!!
Robin of Sherwood must be one of the most flattered filmed versions of the legend ever. This TV series (which, by the way, was not made by the BBC and was instead shown on the British commercial channel ITV -- something that most North American video guides get wrong) ...

Robin of Sherwood - The Swords of Wayland (1985)

Michael Praed, Judi Trott

20th Century Fox, 1993

Best Robin Hood Ever!
The BBC Roin Hood series, lasting - as I recall - 2 seasons, was a masterpiece of fantasy and medieval storytelling, From the nicely authentic gear and sets and look of the characters, to the fine action, to the plot and character development, to the cool sorcery and ...

Ladybird Ladybird

Crissy Rock, Vladimir Vega

Hallmark Home Entertainment, 1996

Difficult and Riveting
This is one of those movies that I didn't enjoy, but I would recommend it to most people. Although I didn't feel enjoyment, I was extremely moved by this movie. I felt a gambit of emotions during this movie: sorrow, anguish, frustration, love, awe, and wonder.I felt ...

The Very Thought of You

Joseph Fiennes, Monica Potter

Walt Disney Video, 1999

Fun Movie for Anyone
The Very Thought of You is a sweet, cute, and fun film that has a good cast and characters you just get interested in for no apparent reason besides the fact that they are there. It does seem highly coincidental that a young woman could meet three guys who are all best ...

The War Zone - Unrated

Ray Winstone, Lara Belmont

New Yorker Video, 2000

3.5 stars out of 4
The Bottom Line: Though Tim Roth's direction sometimes falters by staying back when it should draw the viewer in, The War Zone is a searing family portrait that pulls no punches and makes movies like Festen or Rachel Getting Married seem very tame by comparison.

Agnes Browne

Arno Chevrier, Sean Fox

Polygram USA Video, 2001

Great Movie
Angelica Houston and cast are so lovable, funny and real. If you've read the Brown trilogy, you'll love this film. I laughed, I cried, i laughed some more...there's never a dull moment.

Sexy Beast

Ray Winstone, Ben Kingsley

Fox Home Entertainment, 2002

It's bloody hot...
`Sexy Beast' is just that; it possesses a savage sexuality that rivets through the audience and draws them in, never letting go. It's not your average gangster film. It's smart and original and thrilling. Couple the tight script with elegant direction and a ...

Fox
Peter Vaughan, Elizabeth Spriggs

Fanny and Elvis

Kerry Fox, Ray Winstone

Ray at his best
This was truley the first of the comedies to come out of the the UK in the mode of Love Actully and Brigette Jones. Ray Winstone is completly out of his heavy ganster mode and relishes in the comedy role. Lot's of good supporting actors, David Moressey as the gay ...
