Cast: Anthony LaPaglia, Oscar Isaac, Nathan Phillips

This is a very objective and intelligent film about the Indonesian

Play the Game (2008)

Cast: Paul Campbell, Andy Griffith, Doris Roberts

Director: Marc Fienberg

Not having high expectation for a film that literally had no p & A so
that people would even know that it's in theaters, I was pleasantly

The Book of Eli (2010)

Cast: Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, Mila Kunis

Director: Allen Hughes, Albert Hughes

Genre: western, thriller, sf

Although there's a Mad Max vibe to it, this is nothing more than a
religious movie. Why pay to visit the Jehovah's Witnesses? I strongly
recommend passing on this movie unless stuck in CC…

Taxidermia (2006)

Cast: Csaba Czene, Gergely Trócsányi, Piroska Molnár

Director: György Pálfi

Genre: drama

I'd like to give this 10 stars for sheer inventiveness and audacity not
to mention a brilliant eye, but for me it didn't quite work totally as
a film, falling apart slightly towards the end.

It was pretty much inevitable that someone would make a movie based on

maven Roland Emmerich. His latest effort adheres close…

District 9 (2009)

Cast: Sharlto Copley, John Sumner, William Allen Young

Director: Neill Blomkamp

Genre: thriller, sf, drama

District 9 is probably one of the most unique films of the year. Just
reading the plot summary, or a tiny snippet of what the movie will be
about, interests the reader greatly. The story is just so…

9 (2009)

Cast: Elijah Wood, Christopher Plummer, Martin Landau

Director: Shane Acker

Genre: fantasy, drama, adventure

I thought that this movie was a good movie. Even though this is an
animated movie, it's designed for adults more than kids. In fact, I
read that this is the fourth computer animated movie to r…

Nine (2009)

Cast: Daniel Day-Lewis, Marion Cotillard, Penélope Cruz

Director: Rob Marshall

Genre: musical, drama, romance

I was surprised when Rob Marshall's Chicago took home the Oscar for
Best Picture. A great movie but not my choice for best of 2002 (that I
would award to Gangs of New York). All that aside, Ma…
