Re: Burn after Reading
Even though the trailer looks promising, I'm only cautiously optimistic about this one. I do love the brothers' sense of humor. In their best films, it's superbly juxtaposed with serious subjects,...

Greatest B Movie!

Re: Greatest B Movie!
I'd go with Touch of Evil, which is my favorite Welles film. What I love about this one is how, fifty years after it was made, it still looks modern in terms of direction. There's not a single shot...

Re: Movie Tab II
In Bruges is my favorite film of the 2008 so far. I loved how it constantly shifted the tone from funny to dramatic to suspenseful, without ever alienating the audience. Characters are superbly...

Re: Why does everyone hate Brett Ratner?
I don't see people with torches anywhere trying to murder Brett Ratner, but it's true that he's getting much more criticism than some other equally mediocre directors. The reason for this is that he...

Re: THE worst movie of all time.
Having seen it just recently, at the moment I do consider Casino Royale to be the worst movie of all time. Tarkovsky's movies are an easier watch than this one. I have no idea at which point did any...

Do reviews of these two, please. I want to hear your opinion on The Ninth Gate, and I want to know if There Will Be Blood is worth seeing.
