A film of substance
If you like light weight films like "Harold and Kumar go to White Castle "or "Pineapple Express", this film is not for you." The Air I Breath" is a film that explores how our actions affect others, in ways, that we can not begin to imagine. The film follows what happens when a man take an unforseen action that ends in tragety for himself, but ultimately ends in joy for another, through a series ...

Extremes
I was skeptical about watching this movie because of the mixed reviews, saying it's not very emotional, even empty in places. But its not empty at all, very powerful in fact. The main character explains who she is from the very beginning. It sets the tone for understanding what she does throughout the movie. If you think love must come before sex then you may not like this movie. If you think ...

So Much Love
I picked up this movie because I love the actor Heath Ledger. I was thrilled with this movie the entire time I watched it. It was definately something new for me in the way of a drug movie, but it wasn't completely about the heroin. It was also about love. There was love for each other, and love of the drug. Through the entire movie the viewer is left to figure out which love is paramount. ...

Great Movie - Full of truth
Being a fan of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, I had some idea of what to expect from the genius mind of John Cameron Mitchell, but this film blew me away - so thought provoking, touching and at times laugh-out-loud funny. The cast is great, and it was good to see Miriam Shor (Hedwig and teh Angry Inch) making a cameo. All the perfomances were wonderful, but the thing that made this movie for me was ...

Humanity is truly disgusting! (but in a good way)
I saw this film when it was in theatres, and up until that time, it was the only movie that's ever made me feel guilty for laughing. I mean, some of the jokes are so horrific, I felt so utterly disgusting for even allowing myself to laugh. There just isn't enough forgiveness in heaven for what I've heard. Literally, people were squirming in their seats at the hundreds of awkward moments. If ...
The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till

Great Documentary
This was a great documentary. I could not sleep very well after watching it. It really depresses me to think that a human being can do this to another human being. Especially a young child, regardless of the race. I hope the Persons who did this, have not gotten a good night sleep since.

Incredibly important film
Taking as its example an innocent taxi driver who was arrested, tortured and murdered at Bagram Prison pursuant to a widespread and unreliable method of detaining suspects by offering financial incentives to local warlords, this careful and thorough documentary clearly connects the dots to explain how America has stripped 83,000 detainees of their freedom and human rights in the name of ...

The Moon and Other Adventures
I have a clear and vivid memory of Neil Armstrong's first step on the moon because my brother made sure I would. I was seven years old at the time. My brother, Daryl, a decade older than me, said, "You have to watch this and remember this. This is history." So I watched closely and made sure to remember; as did billions of other people around the world on July 21, 1969. That wonderful ...

Something odd in Little Wallop
I thought "Keeping Mum" was a bright, dark comedy. I have always wanted to see Rowan Atkinson in straight role. Kristin Thomas was super. As for Maggie Smith she was great!!
War Dance

Watch. Listen. Learn.
Nominated at the 2008 Oscars in the Best Documentary category, it is easy to see why WAR DANCE was on top of that list. Although it lost out to Taxi To the Dark Side, War Dance need not hang its head. Little known subjects are a great thing to learn about, and this is War Dance's biggest strength. The civil war in Uganda has raged for over 20 years, but few know what it's about or its effects ...

a documentary worth watching
*Born into Brothels* is a documentary worth watching. Zana Briski came to Calcutta to film the Indian women working the "red light district". However, her attention is soon turned to the prostitutes' children living in the brothels. What's special about this documentary is that Briski doesn't just film these children. She decided to give them a skill that they could use in their life. She ...

I'm gonna give it 5 for David Morse
Down in the Valley is a classic tale about just how lost we can get in life. Edward Norton plays a confused young man (Harlan) who has found his place in life to be a time that has past. There are some really cool scenes with him and his "6 Shooters". He does some cool trick draws. Evan Rachel Wood (Toby) is quietly hot and Rory Culkin (Lonnie) is...Rory Culkin...always good, although better ...

A FIlm Not Good At Apologizing!
When you think of quad rugby (rugby played by quadrapolegics) what do you think of? What I thought of was a bunch of disabled guys getting together to throw the ball around for no other reason but that they wouldn't feel sorry for themselves. (It is hard to admit, but that is the vision I had.) This film - Murderball, which is the original name of "quad rugby" - is a mind-changer. And ...

The most painfully real of all Holocaust films.
Lajos Koltai's "Fateless" deserves far more fame in the United States than it has achieved. "Schindler's List" and "The Pianist" have the reputations here, but "Fateless" goes far deeper than any fictional film I have ever seen in giving the audience the total, painful reality of what it must have been like to be a Holocaust victim. Gyurka (Marcell Nagy, a movingly natural young actor) is a ...

Another kind of magical childhood
If your looking for a fantasy escape by way of a Disneyland-Hollywoodistic flair, then keep on looking. There's plenty of other films. This is a story about an abused kid and it should be uncomfortable. The film wasn't artificially disturbing or drawn out, and handled the biographical elements with an amazing sensitivity without discounting what was happening either. Yet the film is not ...

simply terrifying
This movie was absolutely one of the most riveting, edge-of- your-seat films that I've seen in recent years. The story of a reporter investigating a series of brutal murders in a small town on the Mexican/US border seems as if it would be riddled with cliches but director Gregory Nava handles the film with a grim reality that may be hard for some reviewers to swallow. That the movie ...

This is a perfect doc
good way to understand world business nowadays, and since humans deal with commerce. it's also about life, families, history, tradition, money, empires, globalization ... the wine is just the support ps don't be bothered by the camera movements like many people in these reviews, it's impossible to have real moments with a tripod ... imagine, just a moment ... wait a second ... wait ... now ...
