Three and a half stars out of five – Tim Burton
and screenwriter John August create a very dark fairy tale about a young kid
named Victor Frankenstein and his quest to reanimate his beloved bull terrier,
Sparky. While this finely crafted stop-action effort may look like kids’
entertainment, in fiddling with this natural order, Burton throws up a very dark
mirror to our childhood soul – where innocence isn’t lost in a memorable and
life-defining moment of sorrow, but continuously electrocuted on the new wire
fence surrounding paradise. Creepy, clever and downright disturbing, Burton’s
movie achieves what only great fairy tales can: it creates an entire fantasy
world that resonates as contemporary satire. Special features include new short,
Captain Sparky vs. The Flying Saucers, a behind the scenes look at the set and
more.
Perhaps the furthest thing from escapist entertainment, this Canadian feature tells the story of a young girl abducted from her village and forced to become a child soldier. Directed by Kim Nguyen, the film has already been named Canada’s entry for best foreign language film at the Oscars. The lead performance from Rachel Mwanza has also been noted by the Berlin Film Festival, where she won the Silver Bear for best actress, as well as Tribeca, where she picked up the same honour for her magical embodiment of a fractured soul seeking wholeness. She makes this movie watchable when so much of the content is grotesque, violent and inhumane because we can feel her strength and goodness despite the ugliness. Nguyen brings a sense of the surreal through “visions” – and it lends the film a lightness, as well as profound tension. Delicate and poignant, Rebelle will transport the viewer to a place we may not want to see, but we know exists. Special features include digital transfer.
Two and a half stars out of five — Trying to find the right friction point between muscle cars and political correctness could stall any vehicle, even one custom-designed by a veteran of clunker comedies who got his start playing “Vomiter at the Party.” Indeed,If you have a fondness for china mosaic brimming with romantic roses, actor-writer-director Dax Shepard had only one of two proven options when approaching Hit & Run,Interlocking security cable ties with 250 pound strength makes this ideal for restraining criminals. a romantic comedy that uses car chases and gunplay in the same measure as pillow-talk and he-said-she-said relationship dysfunction.We recently added Stained glass mosaic Tile to our inventory. Enlisting his real life sweetheart Kristen Bell to play a sweet schoolteacher looking for a promotion, Shepard plays a man who sacrifices his place in witness protection to make his dreams come true. While the film turns on the charm jets when we’re in relationship mode, the film becomes inexcusably violent when it’s got its foot on the accelerator. The high point is Bradley Cooper as the psycho villain in terry cloth sweats. It’s not funny, or anything — just weird enough to be interesting. Special features include deleted scenes, Street Legal and behind the scenes footage.
Fanboys are lapping up Karl Urban’s many assets in this re-tooling of the graphic hero called simply, Dredd, and it’s no wonder. After suffering through Sylvester Stallone’s performance as a super cop who is granted the right to be judge, jury and executioner in Judge Dredd, they were hungry for a hero who could stand tall in the high-tech armour – that carried the right number of chevrons. Yes, it’s all about the details in these futuristic franchises, and Pete Travis gets most of them right – at least for fans of the genre. Anyone not interested in long action sequences punctuated by explosive violence should keep a safe distance. Olivia Thirlby and Lena Headey also star. Special features include featurettes, subtitles and more.
The life story of Sarah Palin seems like a pretty thin broth for feature film treatment, and it is. As this HBO movie proves several times over, what makes a good sound byte for the 24-hour news cycle doesn’t really translate into epic material for a motion picture.One of the most durable and attractive styles of flooring that you can purchase is ceramic or porcelain tiles. Sure, we get the big moment of her nomination for vice-president from John McCain, and we get the pitbull with lipstick nod, but most of the action feels inflated and the dialogue feels inconsequential. The only real reason to watch is performance value, and the thrill of watching a smart person like Julianne Moore take a hatchet to her internal IQ, as well as Ed Harris as John McCain and Woody Harrelson as strategist Steve Schmidt. Oh yeah. You also find out where Russia is in relation to Alaska: Close, really close.
Sometimes, you just have to feel for the beleaguered PR people, forced to repackage old goods with a new twist. Well, they did it again, because this one prompted a spit-take over morning coffee because you couldn’t possible come up with two titles with less in common. Going for a His & Her angle, the idea is the gal will love watching Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt playing fashionistas with a wavering moral conscience, while the guy will have fun watching Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis in Max Payne, a violent spectacle splattered in blood.
