The White Crow Movie Review
Many of the dance scenes are fantastic and really sell the feeling that the dancers are floating in the air. This illusion is reinforced by having a professional dancer play the lead role of Nureyev. First time Ukrainian actor Oleg Ivenko inhabits the role with substantial effect and even looks the part.

Nureyev was one of Ballet’s true greats and he is played here as the pampered and egotistical rock star he was. He bucked the system and was unafraid to taunt ...

The Night Eats The World Movie Review
There is something so universal about zombie movies, the first thing being the thoughts of what you would do if the dead actually came back alive. Almost everyone has seen so many zombie flicks by now that you would already know most of the beginner’s rules, you know, getting weapons, learning the art of the double tap and of course not killing Bill Murray. What does Sam do in this situation? What would anyone do?

After Movie Review
What passes as young romance for the film’s intended audience sends out some questionable messages but Hardin is after all super dreamy. Oh and I might have forgotten to mention he speaks with a smooth British accent. He also read books and drives a cool car.
//
There are numerous moments in the storyline that mirror one’s own experiences of early romances but only for those with a very over developed sense of revisionist reality. No one was actually that smooth ...

Tolkien Movie Review
His childhood was one filled with tragedy as his father died when he was three years old and his mother when he was twelve. He was however a keen student with a penchant for languages that was enlivened by a vivid imagination. Without a family name and financial backing, his education was much more difficult for the hyper intelligent student.
//
The film studies the class system of the times as well as the impact that the church had on the young orphan’s life. It ...
