Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2011) Fullständig Film Streaming

There's nothing here but wreckage. "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows" is so ineptly made that the story is advanced solely through announcements.. As Johnny Depp has done so brilliantly with his devilish Jack Sparrow, Downey has made this sly sardonic Sherlock stylistically all his own. Case closed.. The skill level in the script is elementary school, my dear Watson.. Downey may think this interpretation is an insight, or funny, but it pushes what was already a rude rewriting of the classic ch...

Saw VI (2009) Fullständig Film Streaming

After six installments, it's not exactly cutting edge.. In every way that matters (indeed, in just about every way a movie can), Righteous Kill fails to deliver.. Pacino has a few funny lines, as does Leguizamo, but not nearly enough to save the film from collapsing under the weight of its own self-righteous tedium.. Taken purely on its merits as a psychological thriller, Righteous Kill is probably a two-star film. The third star is there strictly for De Niro and Pacino. Playing off each other, ...

The Captive (2014) Titta På Strömmande

It's a pretty film full of magic and miracles - a flying horse, a child saved, a man made immortal by love, a mortal character who by my count is at least 104 years old but still working as a newspaper editor - but, alas, it just doesn't gel.. If only there was less mush and more meat in this stew.. Clumsy and inert, a lumbering white elephant rather than the flying white horse that is the novel's magical mascot.. At one point Hanks can be glimpsed gasping for air, mid-endless-sentence. Has ther...

Prometheus (2012) Fullständig Film Streaming

Prometheus--like, in its telling, the human race itself--is a creation spliced from the DNA of superior forebears.. Erotic thrillers are a time-tested genre, but this effort, scripted by Wesley Strick, is neither erotic nor thrilling.. Prometheus is more interested in piling on big questions than in answering them. It's deep without being particularly smart, although the dazzling design and special effects keep you from noticing that basic flaw until at least an hour in.. There's no redeeming th...

Super 8 (2011) Titta Hela Filmen

The original is still creepy, but this Horror will have fans jumping in their seats and talking back to the screen.. The game is now afoot with Holmes' arch-nemesis, Professor James Moriarity -- and that makes a notable difference. This time, Holmes is up against an equal, and it's elementary indeed that muscle and firepower alone won't carry the day.. In theory, this should all be scary, but it just isn't. You giggle at the B-movie cheesiness of it.. Spielberg and Abrams are the unwitting targe...

Holes (2003) Spela Strömmande

A dense yarn with a range of humor, imagination and emotions as wide as the desert floor upon which it is set.. One can't help but feel thankful that the movie doesn't always go the expected route, that the characters have a little more depth to them than average, and that the complexity, which is the movie's basic weakness, is also its fundamental virtue.. Fills a hole in the genre by not treating kids with kid gloves.. . Older kids, fans of the book and parents who remember the fun of reading ...

Predestination (2014) Online Streaming

Weirder and more contemplative than many of its time-traveling brethren, "Predestination" is a stylish head trip.. It's certainly imaginative, with high-minded ideas, but Hawke and Snook are what keep it grounded in truth.. You won't be able to take your eyes off Sarah Snook, an Aussie actress who makes whatever sex she's playing almost irrelevant. You watch her. You hear her. You believe.. Writer-directors Peter and Michael Spierig show affinities for serious literature as well as pulp fiction;...
