Falconetti's amazing performance here, i think, has never been surpassed by any other actor/actress of our time. It's a wonderful film that never cease to move me each time I watch it.

    4.0 Stars by Harry
    Even if the characters don't consider their act a critique, the director is judgmental in trying to justify it and it doesn't bother me. Probably because I agree with his view to some extent. What's frightening is he makes it possible for everybody to relate to their lives by focusing on the most mundane, repetitive, automated, calculated, controlled and controlling actions life has produced. The fact the way they're portrayed makes it interesting may be a hint that art is the only escape. The finale doesn't shock me because it's presented as the only solution for them with nothing to be missed, neither for them nor us. Flushing money down the toilet seems so satisfying!

    the depth, subtlety, and intelligence of the trailer is mindblowing. My most anticipated film of 2008. Absolutely genius.

    As a proud American this trailer alone fills my heart with PRIDE AND PATRIOTIC FEELINGS!
    Even non-Americans will undoubtedly be move by this trailer... greatly.

    Want to go "Green" ?... this guy is the Green Machine. Try making homes out of used waterbottles, tires, and bottles. Solar panals so you don't need to pay an electric bill ever in your life, your own sewer and water system. Growing your own food right outside your home. This guy went 'green' decades ago, and this film is about his dream to radically change how we look at housing and how we treat the planet. I especially liked how he helped people build these kind of houses after the terrible Tsunami disater. If more people were like this guy it'd be interesting to see how our world would be. Pretty interesting stuff here. Check it out.

    This was well...a dissapointment for sure. Wait for the DVD. Barely a 3 star and maybe I'm even being nice with that rating. If De Niro and Pacino weren't in it I'd probably give it a 2 and a half at best. The writing is bad, the directing is suspect, the film lacks any sort of suspense and badly could have used some, the dialogue is funny at times and yet totally ridiculous at other times. Don't say I didn't warn you.
    DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY SEEING THIS AT THE THEATRE!!

    Robert Mitchum is nothing short of mesmerizing in what is surely one of the finest pieces of film noir ever made.

    Like your list alot but it look slike you just copied out of the criterion collection catologue. Bresson and Dreyer are def two of my favs though as well. But have you ever seen a blockbuster? they can be quite entertaining!

    The Dead Zone The Dead Zone
    4.5 Stars by Loren
    During the film Christopher Walken talks about "Sleepy Hollow" multiple times, and as you know he was the headless horseman in Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow. Another weird coincidence is that when Walken's character is tutoring a young boy in the film he is reciting a poem I'm not really familiar with "Lady Lenor" or something. Colleen Dewhurst is in the film, and when she played the mother in the "Anne of Green Gables" films the Anne Shirley character recites the same poem. I know there are these coincidences in all films... another one I can remember is when John Malkovich in the film "the Object of Beauty" has a long running dialogue on how many times they have remade Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and sure enough he played the role years later in "Mary Reilly"..lol Do go see The Dead Zone though. Rewatched it again today after seeing it a couple years back, and just as good if not better the second time around. It is very well done, and you can just see the sadness and lonliness pour out of Walken's role.

    Hands on a Hard Body Hands on a Hard Body
    4.5 Stars by Loren
    In order to win a brand new truck, how long would you.. or could you..keep your hand on it without letting go? As you all know 1st prize in this documentary feature is a brand new fully-loaded Nissan truck, anyone what to see 2nd prize? A $250 gift certifacte, third prize is your fired... j/k 3rd prize is like a $50 gift certificate to the grocery store for your troubles of staying up three days with no sleep with your hand on a vehicle. These people go well over 3 days with only a 5min break every hour and a 15min break every 6.. pretty sick but it takes alot out of you and 'there can be only one' standing. This documentary is done really well, and you actually start to care who wins when it comes down to the end. Pretty good stuff.

    Note - You can actually watch this on "Google Video".. Just type in the name of the film and it should pop up to watch.... It should say it is 97minutes in length..Enjoy!

    Le Monde Selon Monsanto (The World According to Monsanto) Le Monde Selon Monsanto (The World According to Monsanto)
    4.0 Stars by Harry
    Ok, so here's the path as I understand: Monsanto's revolving door tactic with the FDA employing its lawyers and vice versa ensures the circulation of its products by hiding research results. Regarding GMOs, the farmers must buy Monsanto's fertilizers and pesticides for the crops to grow and are forbidden to replant the seeds or will be taken to court. Free trade ensures that Monsanto's seeds are spread across countries so that they can eventually contaminate other crops (pollen), kill the biodiversity and oblige farmers to use Monsanto's products. With the diversity of the seeds getting narrower as Monsanto dominates the market, farmers and consumers are at their mercy. If rBGH and GMOs turn out to be like PCBs, it will take years before people have concrete evidence (cancer) of their negative effects to be able to sue Monsanto who will likely resolve the case by paying a fraction of the profit they've made in compensation for the victims and the people responsible will walk free.
    the future is looking bright

    This brutal gem from the director of "Lucky Number Slevin" deserves to recognized as one of the top British gangster films. It's up there with GET CARTER and THE LONG GOOD FRIDAY. See it if your a fan of the genre.
