Revolver (2005) Spela Film

Methodically and with generally unfailing good restraint, Landesman re-creates the grief surrounding the crime and the confusion of Oswald's capture and subsequent murder.. "Parkland" succeeds as it fails. For whatever its flaws, it is unforgettable.. The assassination of John F. Kennedy, as seen through the eyes of bystanders, insiders and other players.. The prospect of Ritchie going back to the gangster genre a third time is unappetizing, but it has nothing on his feeble attempt to reinvent i...

Crimson Peak (2015) Fullständig Film Streaming

The insanely lush Gothic romance and ghost story plays like a hitherto unrecorded collaboration between Edgar Allen Poe, Edith Wharton, the designers of Disneyland's Haunted Mansion and whoever directed all those Bonnie Tyler music videos in the 1980s.. Unsurprisingly for a Del Toro film, the production design is the real star of Crimson Peak.. Aflame with color and awash in symbolism, this undeniably ravishing yet ultimately disappointing haunted-house meller is all surface and no substance, si...

Inside Man (2006) Spela Strömmande

Lee seems less interested in scoring easy sociological points than ratcheting up the stakes of Gewirtz's cunning heist scenario, which offers little in the way of wiggle room for latecomers.. Exceptionally well written with clever twists and witty dialogue by first-time screenwriter Russell Gewirtz, Inside Man is adroitly executed by director Spike Lee.. When it works best, Changeling is a feverish and bluntly effective parable of wronged innocence.. Clint Eastwood's Changeling falls into a comm...

Jarecki knows how to make scenes of boisterous family reunions and quiet moments between lovers engaging: He fares less well, though, when the story takes a dark turn.. The film is so busy working hard to convict one rather shady character, it never convinces us of its own reason to exist.. It does have its moments, and the talent involved is impressive.. .

Scoop, a half-baked amalgam of Manhattan Murder Mystery and Curse of the Jade Scorpion -- sadly demonstrates that Allen has lost much of his comic timing both as a director and an actor..

The result is an efficient film that never really catches fire, but satisfies along the way.. The film has several smart twists and surprises up its well-tailored sleeve..

The trouble with Harry, as becomes clear from this seventh and penultimate installment, is not that we have lost the plot -- the film is as tangled and as corkscrewed as Bonham Carter's hair -- but that we are in danger of losing everything else.. Even though it ends in the middle, Dea...

Everybody's so good in this!. Altman is one of the few contemporary directors who consistently showcases excellent women's roles, an...

思い出のマーニー (2014) Titta Hela Filmen

While not a masterpiece, it is beautiful, nonetheless.. Yonebayashi has touched on the greater mystery underlying everyday life, a world pulsing with wonder and possibility, edged with a shadow of melancholy.. Though its curious narrative arc means you're never sure exactly where it's going, the film works up a considerable emotional charge by the end.. When Marnie Was There may start off a bit awkwardly, but it'll have you bathing in your own tears by the time it's over.. Subtle, sometimes real...

Shooter (2007) Fullständig Film Streaming

Shooter won't win any Oscars, but it has blood and brains, and even some heart. They're splattered all over the screen.. The film's weird, thin politics become harder to swallow as it lurches from set-up to set-up.. It may not qualify as a masterpiece, yet is a masterful thriller nonetheless.. Suspended over a deep gully of disbelief, where logic takes more bullets than the bad guys, Shooter still makes the grade as hard-ass action escapism.. A chase movie and a pretty crafty thriller, Shooter o...

Lost River (2014) Ladda Ner Hela

At heart, "Lost River" is a midnight movie for those ready to find it and go with the flow.. . . Mulholland Drive makes movies feel alive again.. Much funnier than it has any right to be, and filled with just enough inside jokes to please longtime fans of the cartoon franchise.. It's like an amalgam of Ghostbusters, Alien and the Pokemon movies -- minus all the good parts..

Inherent Vice (2014) Online Streaming

Although it's not as hermetic and impenetrable as The Master, Inherent Vice still comes off as a giant inside joke to anyone who hasn't read Pynchon's novel.. Some storylines conclude, some collide, others dissipate. But the film's main crime is this: It's boring.. Both times I saw "Inherent Vice," I experienced roughly the same contradictory responses: delight undercut by puzzlement, followed by a happier sort of puzzlement.. At first glance, Inherent Vice might seem to be a detective story. Lo...

Snowtown (2011) Titta Hela Filmen

'Snowtown' is an uncomfortable film to watch, but its sickening suburban horror is made bearable by Kurzel's rigorous restraint.... Alexandre Aja's inability to delineate credible or interesting characters results in 110 wasted minutes for anyone unfortunate to wander into an auditorium where this is playing..

Dead Silence (2007) Online Streaming

There's no attempt at humor in Dead Silence, but the biggest sin in the film is the lack of scares.. Wan and Whannell have a carnivalesque sense of fun and a sure instinct for recycling classic horror tropes, but their characters are so flat and their plotting so listless that this low-budget feature fails to generate much suspense.. Formulaic and rather lazy exercise in booga-booga scare tactics.. A gothic chiller in which morbid atmospherics and simmering suspense build to an ingenious third-a...

Eli Roth's glossy and reasonably fun update of Peter Traynor's 1977 exploitation movie "Death Game.". All foreplay and no, well, climax.. Roth's tale is fairly twisty, as the behavior of the women grows increasingly violent and more outrageous.. [It's] certainly unequaled in its field for the beauty of its camerawork, sets, costumes and effects. But it's also conventionally plotted and not surprising or scary at all.. As a piece of social satire, "Knock Knock" winds up being not just toothless b...

Those who submit to the movie's spell may well find themselves giddy at how viscerally and confidently an old master can deploy the tools of his trade.. Passion turns into vintage De Palma - which is to say, the film seems almost engineered to get you giggling at the extravagance of its absurdity..

Be sure to watch it in a safe and contained area.. A gimmicky, tricked-out tale that is all too self-aware. But the film does keep you guessing and probably guessing wrong.. This remake of George A.

Relying on obvious cliches doesn't seem ironic anymore, just easy. And though there are several genuine jolts, poor pacing leaves too much time between the silliness and scares..

Its aura of cool menace is largely attributable to Isaac, stealing his every scene as the smoothly bullying CEO, and production designer Mark Digby, who created the millionaire's sleek, high-tech mountain fortress.. Ex Machina packs a scientist's brain inside a thrill seeker's body, much like the nubile robot within it.. It's hard to imagin...

Werner Herzog, better known as one of the finest living directors, plays a bad guy with Teutonic relish.

It only ends up reminding us of how much better Cruise's riskier, more personal work - particularly his outside-the-box performances in pictures like "Tropic Thunder," "Magnolia" and "Rock of Ages" - truly is.. A wildly ill-advised miscalculation, with Cruise's virtually unstoppable appeal butting uncomfortably against Reacher's alternately cocky and downright crude cynicism.. The dialogue is often unintentionally funny and Cruise's performance is all wrong.....

Non-Stop (2014) Titta På Strömmande

"Non-Stop" doesn't make any sense, but that's expected, uninteresting and incidental to the pleasures of a slow-season Liam Neeson release as diverting as this one.. It might be curtains for celluloid, but Scorsese, a boyish 69, clearly isn't leaving the stage any time soon. He directs every film with the passion of his first. And it shows.. Scorsese transforms this innocent tale into an ardent love letter to the cinema and a moving plea for film preservation.. Scorsese's film is a richly illust...

Its breathlessness and permanent state of confusion make you long for the assured touch of M. Night Shyamalan.. Things started to fall off of the deep end very quickly.. It's too bad the thin story didn't match the stylishly haunting visuals.. It might have been an opportunity for the sort of challenging speculation sci-fi is best at, however, and the best reason to see it is simply because of the creativity of its visuals.. Hokum is best served straight, not as a New Age cocktail with too many ...

I'll wager you won't see a better performance by a veteran American actor over the next 11 months.. Those looking for a 'feel-good' movie are advised to go elsewhere -- unless watching artists working near their peak leaves you soaring..

Tell No One is a French action thriller and murder mystery that doesn't cheat..

Although it might make your head spin, this case of Vertigo in cyberspace keeps us spellbound..

This is Jones' show and he makes you feel a father's fear and loss in ways that are subtly heartbreaking, never melodramatic.. Sarah does any number of silly things while scurrying through this not-so-silent house, but keeps the audience on her side; you want her to get out of the house immediately but you don't get annoyed with her when she can't.. Demonstrating the limits of being too clever in a genre movie, the art-house chiller "Silent House" lets the tenseness of its first act trickle away...

The Gift (2015) Spela Film

More than anything, Edgerton's script and direction demonstrate a keen understanding of tension and what puts an audience on edge.. A dark and ultimately quite nasty psychological thriller from actor/writer/debut director Joel Edgerton, who manages to yank the carpet out from under his audience a couple of times.. Edgerton's touch as a director and writer is fluid - he eerily holds our attention, like Hitchcock holds a door for Tippi Hedren.. Lukewarm as a romance, but the charming young cast he...

Brick (2005) Ladda Ner Film

Johnson isn't the first director to subvert suburbia, but he's probably the first to have done such a fine job of it on his first outing.. Yet in being so unlike the typical high school flick, it captures anew the alienation, the ridiculously earnest intensity of feeling, the insularity of experience that are part and parcel of those blunder years.. Monster House, a frankly horrific and full-tilt hilarious family yarn about a man-snacking mansion. It's engineered to scare your pants off, split y...

Disturbia (2007) Titta På Strömmande

Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. Every minute of this action packed movie is amazing. This is the single best movie I have ever seen. All of the actors do great jobs at their roles from the villains to the side characters they all give convincing performances.. Has nowhere near the conceptual sophistication of Rear Window, where the protagonist's absorption in what he's watching mirrors the viewer's. The problem with Disturbia is that for most of the fil...

The Manchurian Candidate (2004) Ladda Ner Hela

Still works as a scary thriller, and if this version no longer seems absurdly impossible -- well, that's scarier still.. Given a story with meat and purpose and importance, Demme delivers a masterfully cast and smartly constructed film of devastating effectiveness.. The remake shakes down as a conventionally plotted thriller. It's the performances that make it exceptional.. The first version was acidulous and brazenly absurd; this one is doggedly, wretchedly earnest.. Happily, this extremely tim...

Silent Hill (2006) Titta På Strömmande

It's badly directed, poorly edited, and features some of the most unconvincing acting this side of a soup commercial.. In the end, Silent Hill degenerates into an overblown replay of all those Twilight Zone and Stephen King stories in which outsiders stumble upon a time-warped location from which there's no escape.. Structured around a series of blackouts and gross-outs, Silent Hill is one long free fall through icky surrealism and underlighted nightmares.. Though it features a plucky female pro...

Old Boy - Hämnden (2003) Titta Hela Filmen

The film tells the story from Webb's point of view without exonerating him. In fact, we never learn enough about just what was and wasn't true, or how far Webb stretched the truth.. A revenge film like none you have seen.. Director Michael Cuesta, a veteran of HBO's Homeland, imparts enough paranoid-thriller ambience to propel the complex story.. Drugs, government, truths, mustaches. "Kill the Messenger" is an admirable journalism thriller that takes on a lot of big subjects.. Cliches and obviou...

Escape Plan (2013) Spela Film

A masterpiece of genre film-making, really worth to watch.. Every minute of this action packed movie is amazing. This is the single best movie I have ever seen. All of the actors do great jobs at their roles from the villains to the side characters they all give convincing performances.. Just don't get your hopes up.. The excellent performances by the cast are also what raise this movie well above your ordinary action movie.. Awesome as director this is the first time that they have been togethe...

Kill the Messenger (2014) Fullständig Strömning

If the pacing sags a little, and the scale is more modest than the 60 Minutes scandal at the heart of The Insider, Kill the Messenger is still crisp, smart and gutsy.. If this movie is any guide, Webb's later years deserve a film of their own. We ought to know more about this fascinating character. And we ought to see more of the fully engaged actor playing him.. Transcendence is fairly ridiculous, but some may prefer its grand, loopy ambition to the small-minded sameness of so many futuristic t...

Barnhemmet (2007) Online Streaming

Beautifully conceived and composed, it's eerie, sometimes frightening and surprisingly moving.. One wonders, in fact, if 9 should have stuck with its original short format.. The Orphanage is never less than engaging. Here and there it's even genuinely frightening.. The film is less of a shocker than an adventure in anxiety, testing and twisting some of the classic studies in infantile curiosity.. There's no denying that Acker has a knack for bleak landscapes and an inventive salvage-yard approac...

The Forbidden Room (2015) Ladda Ner Hela

[A] narcotized fever dream .... At a time when everyone is talking about the death of the movies, Guy Maddin proves that we can always bring them back to life.. Is "The Forbidden Room" an infantile Freudian joke? Yes, it's that and a lot more.. Guy Maddin's latest act of cinematic mayhem isn't easy to parse, but narrative coddling has never been his intent.. For those attuned to Maddin's goofy sense of humor, it's easily the funniest movie he's ever made -- a series of several dozen comic shorts...

The Gunman (2015) Online Streaming

OK, we've seen the biceps and the abs. Very nice. Now, back to the brain.. It's a short film, weighing in at 79 minutes, but that feels about right. You probably wouldn't want to spend a lot more time with these folks, no matter how intriguing their company.. Part of the contract that movies of this sort forge with moviegoers is that the reasons for all the running and gunning won't get in the way of the action. "The Gunman" doesn't play by those rules.. A dum-dum action picture that briefly pre...

National Treasure (2004) Titta Hela Filmen

The result is a dolled-up, overblown, pandering romantic costume drama that's not only sillier than the filmmakers surely intended but also, if you follow the plot implications all the way to the end, way ickier, too.. Cage invests none of the edge, passion or heart we've come to expect from him in the part. Bean has no decent villainous moments, and the rest of the cast (save for Voight) is forgettable and generic.. Just when you think you've finished with one of these annoying franchises, anot...

Vampire Academy (2014) Spela Film

Sometimes I watch a film unspool like a tape measure, and I can sense how far we are from the end. Sometimes my imagination is led to live right along with it.. Fans of the 'pitiless/merciless killers' school of horror should get a jolt out of The Strangers, a harrowing real-time tale of an assault on a remote country home.. Let's give writer-director Bryan Bertino credit. He knows how to frame a shot to make characters seem vulnerable. Now for his next trick, he just needs to turn his talents t...

Insidious (2010) Ladda Ner Film

If there's a complaint to be made about Insidious, it's that the film's second half is unable to live up to the impossibly high standards set by the first half.. Aesthetically, Insidious operates at the level of a decent high school video project.. The film is stylish and quietly unsettling even in its derivativeness, and it delivers the sort of slow-building chills that ruffle the hair at the back of your neck, at least until the frights get a little too literal, in the movie's third act.. Not ...

Dark Places (2015) Fullständig Film Streaming

A film that, for all its pretensions and intermittent power, is essentially high-grade claptrap.. Prisoners is an overblown missing-children mystery that wants to comment on the dysfunctional soul of America.. A work of impressive craftsmanship that winds up making us think too much about how it was fashioned rather than what it has to say.. "Prisoners" is a dark, deeply serious examination of how loss can unhinge us; it grabs onto you, and you may have trouble shaking it away.. "Dark Places" is...

Transcendence (2014) Spela Film

The question of whether we're too tied to technology and when or if it will prove our downfall is undoubtedly important and probably somewhat pressing. It certainly deserves a better movie than "Transcendence.". Bold, beautiful, sometimes confounding flight of futuristic speculation firmly rooted in the potential of today's technology.. Transcendence is fairly ridiculous, but some may prefer its grand, loopy ambition to the small-minded sameness of so many futuristic thrillers.. Remember when pa...

The Guest (2014) Fullständig Film Streaming

To note that "The Guest" is not for everyone is to belabor the obvious. But for fans of smart, well-made horror, it's a treat.. Frank mostly overdoses on portentousness as he roots his solid hero in a city that fears coming to pieces.. For much of its running time, "The Guest" plays an interesting guessing game with the audience.. As a throwback to a type of nasty, ugly crime film of yesteryear, A Walk Among the Tombstones cleans up.. Overplotted and underexplained .... Frank's film is much more...
