Strange But True Movie Review
Told in a non-linear manner, as more details are revealed you experience a shifting of focus and the way you relate to the characters and their actions. There is darkness in the hearts of men that informs the actions of some.
//
Film adaptations of novels, in this case the book of the same name by author John Searles, are always fraught with risk. Readers often form their own internal imagery and it’s almost always the more vivid version. This screen edition will most likely ...
Maleficent: Mistress of Evil Movie Review
Returning to the role of the big evil is Angelina Jolie and it is one she comfortably inhabits. Her angular look and acting style suits the requirements perfectly. She is however given a run for her money in the evil stakes by Michelle Pfeiffer as Queen Ingrith. Pfeiffer dominates every scene she is in and her final dispensation is fitting and funny.

The visuals throughout never look less than spectacular. The fairy land with its open and organic beauty sharply contrasts ...
Zombieland: Double Tap Movie Review

Adding new cast members doesn’t really enhance things either. Except for Rosario Dawson, whose new character is well written and gets to kick serious ass.
//
The script also makes some strange choices in structure with two of the main cast members (Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin) leaving the action after the second reel ...

Judy Movie Review
Signed to MGM Studios at a very young age, her life was almost completely controlled by its studio head, Louis B. Mayer. Never considered an out right beauty of the caliber of Liz Taylor or Ava Gardner, she was made to feel second class and was never allowed a childhood. Labour laws of the time for children actors in Hollywood were almost non-existent. They also gave her regular quantities of amphetamines to keep her thin and working. This helped to create addictions that lasted her entire ...
