Wonderful Documentary
Thank you Generation Rescue for making a little film with such a BIG message and BIGGER heart!!! It was hard not to nod my head through the entire thing because everything I wanted to shout about my son and our experience was being said right there on the big screen!!! I agree that it is important for anyone whose life is touched by autism to watch this movie. But I also think it's equally ...

Tsotsi Film Review
Tsotsi was the perfect example of how some of the misguided youth around the world can live a life of crime and no morality. Tsotsi was the leader of his small gang, which was made up of four including the main character Tsotsi. Die Aap was the quite one in the group that just agreed with whatever decision being made and went with the flow of the group. Butcher was the `hothead' the one who was ...

Amazing Film
I have seen this movie out there for a decade now and kept meaning to see it. The opportunity presented itself this Memorial Day weekend, so I took it. The story is set in the mid 1940s in South Africa. A priest is on a quest to find his long lost son. It seemed that everyone was getting lost in South Africa back then - hopefully they are better at keeping track of people now that we have email ...

Make sure to get the REMASTERED EDlTION...
I just bought a copy of this great Italian film, and it is wonderful. I read a lot af reviews about how terrible the video and audio transfers were and was very tentative about purchasing a copy, but I went on the Amazon Marketplace for the remastered edition released by No Shame video and purchased it there. All I can say is that I couldn't be happier with this version. Just make sure that ...

wow, what a movie
I've seen my share of powerful and moving films, but this is certainly one of the very best. A woman in Africa who's infected with HIV has to find the strength to wake up every single day and take care of her daughter. The emotions this film has is on a whole other level. First of all, it's true you have to read the English text on the bottom of the screen for the entire length of the movie, ...

An Explosive End To A Wonderful Series
This is one classic show that will live on just like "I Love Lucy" and other classic shows (Lucy is another favorite of mine). To say that this show went out with a bang is an understatement. I watched this show when it was originally run on NBC (I watched Monday nights at 8 p.m. on KNBC Channel 4 in Los Angeles). I have the entire series on DVD and am enjoying the series again. It is too ...

The beauty of brains
What holds this movie together is Melanie Griffith, a deliberate and thoughtful actress. Add the handsome Don Johnson as the teacher/reporter and John Goodman, the hard-boiled, no nonsense businessman and you have a winner. This movie is a study in so many things: self-respect, respect for others, integrity, dignity, and the beauty of brains. When Billie (Melanie) tells Paul (Don) that she ...

"He's right! I'm stupid and I like it!"
From your first impression of Judy Holliday in this movie you expect her to be refined and sophisticated...well, until she opens her mouth! She's a perfect mix of Eliza Doolittle and Lina Lamont. It's no wonder Judy Holliday won an Academy Award for her amazing performance as Billie Dawn, a "dumb broad" who's "stupid, but likes it because she's happy and she gets everything she wants." (They had ...

Graphic yet gripping
I had purchased this review after hearing a Relevant magazine podcast where the magazine editor had traveled to Rwanda. In the interview the editor, Cameron Strang had commented on how the local people in Rwanda had said that if they had to pick a movie that told their story, they would choose 'Sometimes in April'. Hotel Rwanda was good, but it did not accurately capture the character that Don ...

The Struggle for Justice
"Sarafina" is a powerful and moving film about the struggle of South African school kids for survival and freedom against apartheid. It is a story of determination, perseverance and courage against tremendous odds. It teaches us that good will always triumph against evil: that the oppressed will always fight back and die to regain their freedom and dignity. The viewer will have a picture of what ...

Nice little gem
This is a very enjoyable romantic movie. It's about a guy named Victor who gets a second chance to make his relationship work though a magic spell, only to have it all fall apart anyway. Along the way, he meets someone new (the Penelope Cruz character). The ending is especially interesting. On the one hand, the lead up makes it seem like he might end up with his original girlfriend, only to have ...

Wonderful!
I saw this film at the Anchorage Film Festival in December and it was wonderful -- so touching yet real without being too graphic about the horrific details. I fell in love with these amazing children as well as with this family who left their affluent life in Johannasberg to devote their lives to these children. I am recommending that we use this movie for a "movie night" at our church; I look ...

Entertaining
Thoroughly enjoyed this entertaining sci-fi feature. As with movies of science fiction one has to use his/her imagination which includes overlooking the overwhelming impossibilities of them (abilities, inventions, etc.). I must add, however, that some impossibilities do not remain impossible and at some future date become possible. A great find and to me a movie worth the purchase!!!!!!!!

Better Than Blade Runner, Unique and Well-Acted.
I am one of the original oficionados of Blade Runner. This means that when no one thought it was worth a $&*&, I was already lost inside of it. Here was a film that investigated so many deep things and yet... it entertained. Natural City is possibly even better, but this is 2008. We have learned a lot about film making. Like Blade Runner, it has a lot of action, it offers something ...

The Fountain: Romance, Sci-Fi and Mythology All Rolled Into One
Having read a review or two I was geared up to find the movie incoherent; instead I found it fabulous, insightful, provocative and deeply moving. I highly recommend it. The story focuses on two characters, Tommy and Izzi, who are husband and wife. Tommy is a scientific researcher trying to find a cure for cancer, and he has a personal investment in his research, since Izzi has terminal ...
