Ridley Scott is back at it again after his last success with American Gangster. Ridley Scott has been my favorite director/producer for some time now. He hasn't let me down so far. As my expectations were very high, I was not disappointed. The screenplay hooks you in from the beginning. The action is fierce and fast paced as you travel along on a ground operation by the C.I.A. DiCaprio plays the ground agent while Russell Crowe plays the very distant office agent who makes the calls.... more...

This film has a great cast of Deniro, Pacino, Donnie Walhberg, among others. Deniro plays Turk a cop who is a hothead but follows the law and keeps protecting the people. Pacino plays his sarcastic chess playing partner, who is loyal like a brother. In the start of the film they have to 'bend' the rules to put away a child killer. They both have no qualms about it and follow through and let it be. Then later there are bunch of serial killings of basically guys that pimp, deal do... more...

Veronica Lake is known for her peekaboo coif and mysterious allure in black and white film, but in the 1941 comedy Sullian's Travels, Lake shows that not only is she beautiful and worthy of vintage pin up posters fame, but can be satirical as well. Even the title, Sullivan's Travels, is a satire, playing on the title of the satirical self-examination journey Gulliver's Travels, by Jonathan Swift. Of course, in her first leading lady role in a film, Lake becomes the personificatio... more...

When you watch a scary film, there will be many different parts that will determine its success. The first obvious key point is that a scary film must be scary. This may sound ridiculously simple, but attempting to cash in on the success of Japanese horror films, the American remakes lack any of the tension, drama or fear of the originals. To make a scary film is a very difficult task. The music must be good, acting is important (to an extent), and the setting is probably one of the key ... more...

If you are anything like me and my family, your memories are very precious, and you would like to keep them as safe as you possibly can.

A video is visual footage and used as visual media while a movie is a video intended to portray a certain work of the multimedia worker. In a sense, a movie in itself is indeed a kind of video but not all videos are movies. Movies are more commonly known to be lengthy and have a story or something to that e... more...

Watch new movies and movie trailers for free. Forget about it. The truth is, it's almost impossible to actually watch newly released movies on the internet, let alone watch them even before they are out on cinemas. This is because the only way for people to upload these movies to the internet is to take the original copy if these videos and put them online for public viewing.
