"I really want to see this movie, not to mention I adore Zooey Deschanel. It's a romantic comedy, from watching the trailer and behind the scenes it is kind whimsical theatrically. It was also featured in Nylon Magazine as having a really great soundtrack...I love movies with good soundtracks, like Almost Famous, one of my favorite movies. It comes out in select theatres July 17th, unfortunately th..."
Koyaanisqatsi - Life Out of Balance
1 recommendation
"This art movie describes modern life as Koyaanisqatsi, a Hopi term meaning "out of balance". The movie, made in the 80s, is part of the Qatsi trilogy, and uses such techniques as slow-motion, time-lapse video and stock footage of events like the liftoff of Apollo 13 to bring out the changes Man has wrought on the face of the planet and raises important questions on the sustainability of such a ..."
Gorillas in the Mist
1 recommendation
"This movie is based on the true story of primatologist Dian Fossey a ferocious fighter against gorilla poachers. This woman was done wrong! Wrong! The movie ends on a tragic note. :( Man, you try to do something good in the world and look what they do to you."
Angels in America
1 recommendation
"Angels in America is phenomenal! Set in the 80's the film (cable miniseries) is about the lives of several people living in New York who are affected, in various ways, by the AIDS epidemic. Funny, philosophical, tragic and at times, fantastical. Great performances from an ensemble cast including (Jeffrey Wright (Basquiat), Meryl Streep (A Cry in the Dark), Al Pacino (Scarface), Patrick Wilson (Lit..."
The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
2 recommendations
"This movie is so much fun! THe kind of movie that makes you sigh afterwards and feel full of exuberance and life. Priscilla is about 3 Australian drag queens (and one of them is played perfectly by Guy Pearce/ Memento) on a road trip. Along their journey the stop and performed form local audiences with a mixed reception. This movie is outstanding! And the soundtrack is great too."
Crooklyn
1 recommendation
"This is such a great family film. And it isn't sugar coated. It portrays your typical American family squabbling and bickering while trying to hold things together emotionally and financially. The film reminds you of the importance of family and community as well as how fragile life and situations can be. A bittersweet movie that will have you reaching for the tissue."
Heat
3 recommendations
"People either love this movie or hate. Which is what happens with brilliant pieces of work. I LOVE Heat. Most crime capers are saturated every 5 minutes with violence or melodrama (Scarface :P). Heat is subtle and brooding (delivered successfully by a huge cast of amazing actors). Only actors of this caliber could pull this off. Which is why I think the same style didn't work for Mann's Miami Vi..."
Enduring Love
1 recommendation
"Netflix this movie now! This is on my list of favorite movies of the past 5 years. Daniel Craig takes his girlfriend Samantha Morton to the countryside for a picnic. Something horrific happens that changes their lives forever. I don't want to tell you any more. Watch it. It's a thriller, its bit unsettling."
Get Carter (1971)
1 recommendation
"The inimitable Michael Caine in one of his tour de forces, 1971's Get Carter is a must-see. Forget the remake starring Sylvester Stallone (who were they trying to kid, really?). Get Carter is a gritty, tense crime movie, and a classic of British cinema. It still has a tinge of the swinging 60s with its brilliantly evocative soundtrack and inclusion of stars Michael Caine and Britt Ekland. Ca..."
Clash of the Titans
2 recommendations
"so bad it's good... the lo-tech effects in this 80's movie are reason enough to watch but throw in a genius cast that includes Laurence Olivier!!, Claire Bloom, Maggie Smith & Ursula Andress + greek mythology + an oft shirtless, young, HOT, Harry Hamlin & well - i'm sold. it's kitschy, ironic, heroic, hilarious & riveting all in one. LOVE it."

"Samuel L. Jackson shows his depth of acting in this epic steeped in the allure of 1960s New Orleans. Three dimensional artistry."
The Proposition
1 recommendation
"This is a great dark Western that most people slept on. Directed and written by musician Nick Cave, this story is set in the Australian outback and stars Guy Pearce (Momento) as an outlaw who is proposition by corrupt law enforcers. The proposition: Trade his younger brother's freedom (who faces the gallows) for his notorious and elusive older brother. Eesh! Tough one."
Malcolm X

"Training Day? Training Day?!!!! Pffffft. Denzel Washington was robbed of the recognition he deserved for his portrayal of one of the most seminal figures in American history. This movie is absolutely stellar. Spike Lee at his best."

"On Blu-ray Disc: Belén Rueda,Fernando Cayo,Roger Príncep,Mabel Rivera,Montserrat Carulla,Andrés Gertrúdix,Edgar Vivar Yes, you should buy this movie on blu-ray. It is beautifully shot, many of the scenes speak for themselves. Words cannot do this film justice.
