Ein russischer Sommer (2009) Download Voll

An artsploitation movie with too much exploitation and too little art.. Although the movie tenderly observes the relationship between father and daughter and has some heart-rending moments, there isn't a lot of doubt why it got made: because actors love to do crazy.. Isn't all that it should be, but whenever these two actors are onscreen, it's like a great night at the theater.. Mr. Bettany is a fine and resourceful actor, but Creation is a battle he was doomed to lose.. Michael Hoffman's adapta...

A smart, touching, tragic, goofy and surprisingly captivating dramatic biography of Irish children's rights activist Christina Noble..

Michell manages to wring the requisite mixture of pathos and mirth from the confab.. The movie works because Christina's desire...

The Other Side of Heaven (2001) Wiedergabe Von Streaming-

The movie's vision of a white American zealously spreading a Puritanical brand of Christianity to South Seas islanders is one only a true believer could relish.. Narrowness of focus keeps the movie from becoming bloated with self-importance, but it also leaves it feeling a little inconsequential-more of a pleasing snack than a satisfying meal.. Those with a yen for food porn (especially truffle fetishists) will feast. All others may want to order something else off the menu.. Captures a breathta...

Captain Phillips (2013) Wiedergabe Von Streaming-

Whether or not you find it an inadvertent parable of the political moment (I do), Captain Phillips is a terrific film..

Testament of Youth isn't a typical biopic; it's a heartfelt manual on forging ahead.. An indelible portrait of one decent man's blown life.. As Vera, the rebellious, moneyed young woman whose dream of graduating from Oxford is deferred when the war breaks out...

Kill Your Darlings - Junge Wilde (2013) Download Voll

Kill Your Darlings wants to be a young man's movie, but it's all "cinema du papa," as the French New Wave used to call it.. Director and co-writer John Krokidas doesn't have a very fluent gift for period re-creation - everything seems stagy - and most of the actors, playing divas of various stripes, overact.. Overall the movie seems to wander, like the worst excesses of free verse, needing a little structure to rein it in.. That Ginsberg is played by Daniel Radcliffe might come as a shock, but t...

Howl (2010) Film-Streaming

An epic by Scandinavian standards, Manus's period re-creation is lavish-but the too-polished rental decor doesn't create a living past..
