Not exceptional, but good. It was kind of boring, but, then again, I wasn't paying 100% attention to it.

I thought it was alright, but not every joke scores and the plot is kind of sketchy.
Clerks

Though the script is really hilarious, I found the acting in this movie to be horrid. I know that the budget was small, but come on...

Everyone in this movie is fantastic. I felt like I was watching actual people, not actors with scripts. I love it!

Batman Begins
PG-13
My second favorite comic book movie of all time. Christian Bale is great as Batman. There are so many great things about this movie, I don't know where to start! One of the best of the year.
3.
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
PG
The best of all of the Star Wars movies. The battle scenes and all the romantic parts are great. I cringe when Leia kisses Luke. Ewww.

The Lion King
G
One of the greatest movies ever made. All the songs are spectacular, and the end is amazing. The comedy is great too.
6.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
PG
This movie is a great adaptation of the book, though it is cheesy at times. The director, Alfonso Cuaron, is spectacular. They left the backbones of the story intact, creating a great feeling of emotion and flow. By far the best of the series. The only part I hate is the Knight Bus and the shrunken head. It feels too cartoony. The cast is great in this movie: Alan Rickman as Snape, Gary Oldman as Sirius, Maggie Smith as McGonagall, and even Daniel Radcliffe is good in this movie.

Juno
by Sam
Juno is definitely one of the funniest films of 2007. This film brings a lot of delight and pleasure to the viewers not just because it is funny but it is beautiful what a teenage girl becomes when she discovers she is pregnant and what she decides to do aswell. Also, it isnt just the situation that Juno is in, it is also all of the characters that are involved in the film. I love that a cool chav-ish girl like Juno gets pregnant by nerd and quite bizarre Paulie Bleeker. Juno acts like a girl who is a bit of a know it all and acts all hard and like she is so tough but when she becomes pregnant everything changes around. I am sure that everyone who watches the film and even most of the characters in the film wonder why her name is Juno. It is just a very unknown and bizarre name that apparently has the name of Zeus wife in Ancient Greek which is what Juno mentions in the film. Ellen Page delivers an outstanding performance as Juno. Her performance is one of my favourite leading actress performances and is certainly my Oscar Best Actress winner in 2007. I believe she should have won instead of other two favourites Marion Cotillard in La Vie En Rose and Julie Christie in Away From Her. But Ellen should have won her Oscar. Michael Cera delivers an average performance as Paulie Bleeker. I think a better actor could have been his character. He was better in this than he was in Superbad. Jennifer Garners performance is excellent aswell as soon to be adoptive mother Vanessa Loring. I think she was snubbed from earning her Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination. One that I think should have been her instead of Amy Ryan in Gone Baby Gone. At first I didn?t think that an actress like Jennifer Garner who appears in Elektra, Daredevil and other fantasy films be any good in this film but she really was brilliant! J.K. Simmons was good as Junos father Mac MacGuff, Allison Janney was poor as Bren MacCuff, Jason Bateman was pretty good as soon to be adoptive father Mark Loring but worst of all of them was Olivia Thirlby as Junos best friend Leah. She acted a bit too hot as Junos best friend. And also Juno looks like a completely different sort of girl to Leah when they hang out and be best mates. My second favourite Oscar Best Picture winner after No Country For Old Men. This film is like last years Little Miss Sunshine. This is definately the number one comedy of 2007. This film is very similar to Knocked Up but better. Masterpiece!Hey, you should really see this!

A Streetcar Named Desire
by Sam
This is without a doubt my favourite Marlon Brando film and is my favourite performance from him and even one of my favourite performances by an actor in a leading role of all time. Marlon Brando was one of my favourite actors when I saw my first film from him The Godfather. I loved his performances in On The Waterfront and Apocalypse Now aswell. I have watched 4 of his films so far and not one has disappointed me yet. Marlon Brando portrays Stanley Kowalski so well because he acts like charming and nice looking guy as Marlon actually was at that age but he also acted like a slightly disturbed character with a lot of different problems. Marlon is good as portraying both heroes and villains. He was a good hero in On The Waterfront but he was a good villain in this aswell. I am unsure who is the real villain in this film between Stanley and Blanche because they are both very puzzling and mysterious characters to calculate. I think Stanley is more of the villain than Blanche is. The quote Stanley speaks in this film Hey, Steeeeeeella! is a classic and a memorable quote aswell. Vivien Leigh delivers the best performance from the whole cast and in my opinion the greatest leading actress performance of all time. Vivien Leigh portrays a mysterious character who is starting to get old and she still likes fashion design. She goes to visit her sister and meets her husband and she moves in for months and this causes a real rivalry and confrontation between Blanche and Stanley and Blanches younger sister Stella is torn between the two of them. Kim Hunters performance was another outstanding one aswell because she easily showed her emotion towards this character and shows that she cant choose between her husband and her sister. Karl Malden does well aswell as Mitch. Mitch is a man who falls in love with Blanche and he doesnt know how old she is until near the end of the film. I think this film is the best film that I have seen where the entire cast have delivered the best performances. Vivien, Karl and Kim all earned Best Actress, Supporting Actor and Supporting Actress Oscars but Marlon was nominated but didnt win. I think that would have made history of two actors and two actresses winning all four Oscars for the same film which this film won 3 of the 4. I dont think a film has ever done that before. Marlon should have won though. His performance in this film is my number 5 Best Leading Actor performance of all time. This is definitely a masterpiece. This film begins with a collaboration between Elia Kazan and Marlon Brando. One of greatest films I have ever seen!!!Hey, you should really see this!
My favourite Marlon Brando film. My 5th favourite leading actor performance (Marlon Brando) and 1st favourite leading actress performance (Vivien Leigh).

The Dark Knight
by JosephWOW i loved it so much, loved it. Truly intense and disturbing. The best Joker ever. I feel this was the way that Joker was always meant to be portrayed. Warped and quite terrifying. There were so many great lines, they are swarming around in my head. I must see it again. There isn't enough words to describe it at the moment and I don't want to say too much but wow. Excellent piece of work. Can't wait to see what other tricks Christopher Nolan has up his sleeves for the next one.
Hey, this is the year's must see!

The Ten Commandments
by Sam
The Ten Commandments is an excellent epic film starring the late Charlton Heston. This film has a very imaginative story but the Bible can prove that it could have been true. It has a lot of fantasy scenes involved in the film like the Ten Plagues with the blood river, unhealable boils, darkness and first borns death of Egyptian families just like Egyptians were doing to the Hebrew first borns. Also, the Red Sea scene aswell when the water was split into two and there was a path for the Hebrews to walk through to get out of Egypt and through to Israel. It is told that this story took place around 3,000 years ago. Nobody knows for sure whether this film is a true story. The special effects are awesome for a film in 1956. Charlton Heston delivers one of his most famous performances of all time. It is my favourite performance from him. I think he is awesome in Ben-Hur and Planet Of The Apes. Charlton was born for epic films. He is an epic film legend. He should have had an Oscar nomination in this film as Moses as should Yul Brynner as Rameses. As much as I enjoyed this film, I preferred The Prince Of Egypt because I thought it was more detailed and more dramatic as there were more well known actors and actresses within that film. This film is definitely one of the greatest epic films of our time and I hope it always will be.Hey, you should really see this!

The Dark Knight
by WinterTo be honest I was never a fan of Heath Ledger's acting but this really was the highlight of his career. I was enthralled by the whole movie and highly entertained by his performance, the whole cinema was! It was still a typical superhero movie though...I got more than I expected with this one as Batman Begins wasn't quite so thrilling!

2001: A Space Odyssey
by Sam
This may shock viewers of my review of 2001: A Space Odyssey but I have rented this film from LOVEFILM and have given up on it twice. But when I watched the whole film for first time, I couldnt understand why I gave up on such a masterpiece. This film has a lot of awesome and different qualities like the different plot from very beginning to when space scenes first appeared. The Dawn of Man scene with the ape-men is absolutely fantastic. This scene first introduced the classic music score within this film. This film has one of the best film music scores that I have ever seen my whole film. It is quite tense, tearful and like awe because it matches with the general plot of the film. The make-up and costumes on the ape men at the beginning of the film were absolutely fantastic for a film from the 1960s. The visual effects were superb. It has one of best visual effects from a film that I have ever watched. I just loved the whole plot of this film. I loved all of the characters aswell. Hal 9000 is an awesome character who is not only in complete control of the space ship and is a computer but because he is a villain aswell. I love the quote OPEN THE POD DOORS, HAL. The visual effects on Hal were good aswell but particularly Hals shutdown. Dave Bowmans character was very good aswell but I dont think the actors performance was that good really. There could have been someone more popular and a better actor. I did think if Tom Hanks was an actor around that time I think he would have been good at that character after he was in Apollo 13. I love the scene just after Hals shutdown when Dave goes closer to Jupiter and enters a new space world which shows absolutely fantastic and beautiful scenes with heart warming music aswell. After watching this masterpiece, I am completely torn between what my favourite Kubrick film is. Those films are this, A Clockwork Orange and The Shining. They are all three completely different films but if I went into great depth about each genre. Horror for Shining, Crime for A Clockwork Orange and Sci-Fi/Adventure for 2001: A Space Odyssey. I would probably say this is his best even though I still love Clockwork and Shining. This might change in the future between the three films. 2001: A Space Odyssey is probably Kubricks most achieved film because of the way he wrote it and also how well he structured it aswell. This film appears slow but it isnt slow at all really. The ending of this film brings out pure beauty and a scene that you will never forget. This is widely considered the greatest science fiction film of all time. It is certainly in my top 10 of best sci fi films and maybe even in my top 10 of all time. This is probably my 2nd favourite sci fi film after The Empire Strikes Back. I need to see sequel 2010 but not sure whether it will be any good but will give it a try soon.Hey, you should really see this!

There Will Be Blood
by Sam
This is an absolutely superb masterpiece from Paul Thomas Anderson as director and Daniel Day-Lewis in the leading role. Daniel Day-Lewis performance is definitely one of the best performances that I have ever witnessed. For this reason, he did deserve his Oscar. As much as I had hoped Johnny Depp to win, I think Daniel Day-Lewis did deserve it because he was more dramatic than Johnny Depp was. Daniel Day-Lewis was perfect for Daniel Plainview because the character is half hero and half villain. He portrays good villains like he does in Gangs Of New York. His performance is like last years Helen Mirren as The Queen. It was obvious that Daniel Day-Lewis was going to win the Best Leading Actor Oscar. Paul Dano was awesome aswell in this film. I cant believe he didnt get an Oscar nomination. He should have instead of Hal Holbrook in Into The Wild. I think this film deserved every single Oscar nomination including its Oscar winning cinematography and nominated Art Direction, Adapted Screenplay, Best Picture, Best Director, Film Editing and Sound Editing. After watching this film, Daniel Day-Lewis has become one of my favourite actors and Thomas Paul Anderson has become one of my favourite directors aswell. I really really liked this film but I didnt like it as much as No Country For Old Men and Juno for the Best Picture nominees but more than Atonement and Michael Clayton.Hey, you should really see this!
This is my favourite Best Picture winner out of the nominees. As much as I loved No Country For Old Men, I enjoyed this more. I thought the acting was superb from the whole cast in this film and I know No Country For Old Mens whole cast were really good aswell but I just enjoyed this film more.posted 12 days ago -

Taxi Driver
by Sam
Taxi Driver is an absolutely fantastic psychological thriller with outstanding performances from Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, Harvey Keitel and Albert Brooks. Robert De Niro portrays Travis Bickle so well because he is a sort of tortured soul who turns into a complete murderous psychopath. He is so vile and cold which makes Robert De Niro perfect for this character. He plays a lot of villains and never fails to give a disappointing performance. Travis starts off as a poor man who is looking for a long hour job. When he starts his job as a New York City taxi driver he starts meeting different people and starts to hang over people who are in danger particularly when a young 12 year old child prostitute Iris steps into his taxi while trying to escape her pimp. She is portrayed by two time Academy Award winner Jodie Foster. She was only 14 in this film. Iris is a character who likes having sex with any man she meets. It is like an obsession but it is disgusting for a 12 year old girl. Her prostitute name is Easy. Pretty much all of Martin Scorseses films are rated 18 or 15 but I think this one is the most graphic out of all of his films that I have seen. This film and Mean Streets are both films that started to make Martin Scorsese one of the greatest directors of all time. This is a film noir which is what most of Scorseses films actually are. I really really enjoyed this film but I preferred films like The Departed, Raging Bull and Cape Fear. This film should have won Best Picture instead of Rocky and Robert De Niro should have had Best Actor 1976. Jodie Foster deserved her Oscar nomination aswell.This is definately one of Robert De Niro's best performances and one of Scorsese's best films aswell. Robert De Niros second most psychotic character after Max Cady in Cape Fear. Jodie Foster is awesome aswell at only 14 years old at the time.

Fargo
by Sam
Fargo is one of the best crime dramas that I have ever seen. This film is absolutely awesome. So awesome I think it should have won Best Picture instead of The English Patient. The acting in this film was absolutely superb particularly from Frances McDormands Oscar winning performance as Officer Marge Gunderson and William H. Macys Oscar nominated performance as car dealer Jerry Lundergaard. Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare were really good as thugs Carl Showalter and Gaear Grimsrud. This film is very similar to No Country For Old Men particularly as far as getting money is concerned and some of the characters are similar. Carl and Gaears characters are similar to Anton Chigurh with the cold blooded character. Jerrys character was really cold aswell after he wanted to have his wife kidnapped and then tries to earn the ransom from his rich father-in-law. The Coen Brothers triumph again just like they did with No Country For Old Men and The Big Lebowski. After watching all three of these films I am a big fan of the Coen Brothers now. This film is so graphic. This is one of the most graphic film noir films I have ever watched. That is another way that this film is so good and that links so well with Joel and Ethan Coen. It was very clever that both of them wrote this film and how they both did two different jobs in this film. Joel was the director and Ethan was the producer. This will be one of greatest crime thrillers of all time for a very long time.Hey, you should really see this!

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
by SamThis film was very good but not as good as The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe. There are a few reasons why I thought that it was disappointing and why I thought it was brilliant. Ben Barnes delivers a weak performance as Prince Caspian as does William Moseley and Anna Popplewell as Peter and Susan Pevensie. Skandar Keynes was good as Edmund Pevensie just like Georgie Henley was as Lucy Pevensie. The film cut have been cut by at least 10 minutes, like there are some scenes that didnt need to be in the film. I thought that the plot was slow. It took at least 45 minutes for the Pevensie kids to meet Caspian. There were some scenes that confused me a bit aswell. This film was darker than the previous film because of story and also the dialogue of the film aswell. The action visual effects are absolutely fantastic. The make-up is absolutely fantastic aswell just like it was in The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe. The action is really good but again just like in the previous film it rip offs Lord Of The Rings again and also rips off 300 because of the masks of King Morazs army. Despite some of the things I thought was a bit off with this film, I still really enjoyed this film. I cant wait for third film Dawn Of The Voyage Treader which only stars 2 of the 4 Pevensie children.

King Kong (1933)
by SamI absolutely loved this film. It was exactly what I was expecting from this film. The visual effects were absolutely brilliant for a film that was made in 1933. The cinematography was good. It was better that they did this film in black and white than colour because Kong will definitely looks fake and they probably couldn?t do a colour film in those days anyway. I thought this film was better than Peter Jacksons remake starring Naomi Watts as Ann Darrow, Jack Black and Carl Denham and Adrien Brody as Jack Driscoll because the original version was more intense than the remake was. The remake was more like an dramatic, romantic film than an action-packed fantasy thriller. I need to see the 1976 version of this film now. I don?t think Fay Crays performance as Ann Darrow was very good at all really because she acted a bit posh compared to her character. Whereas Naomi Watts is a serious actress who fits in really well with the character. Robert Armstrong was better as Carl Denham than Jack Black was because Carl Denham is a serious character and Jack Black is a comedy actor so it doesn?t quite fit. Bruce Cabot was better than as Adrien Brody as Jack Driscoll. This is a masterpiece and one of the best action-packed thrillers of all time.
