Wow

This is my favorite movie ever. With Jodie Foster as the vulnerable Clarice Starling, and Anthony Hopkins as the deadly Hannibal Lector it is not something you can afford to miss. Best movie by far, I am in love.

Bad Lieutenant94 reviews
Harvey Keitel, Victor Argo
Live / Artisan, 1998
You do something for me, and I'll do something for you!
'Dazzlingly raw, gritty, dirty, blatantly real' are the best ways to describe this spectacular flick about a bad cop whose life is spinning out of control. Harvey Keitel gives an incredible, mind-blistering performance in the title role. This cop is losing himself in a gambling problem and a drug ...

This definitely isn't your average feel-good, stereotypical, underdog boxing movie. After all, Sly Stallone was the sole owner to the keys to that kingdom four years prior w/ his beloved "Rocky". In fact, this film really isn't about boxing at all (although there's a plethora of savage, short ...

Cop land seems to be under appreciated now after being out on the shelves a few years, and it is truly a shame. This movie has some shock value in a couple of areas, and those dynamics were crucial for its initial success in telling a compelling, character driven story that is wrought with ...

Why was this movie not made mandatory viewing in every school in the 50s Well, we all know the reason. But it would have saved a lot of lives. Still the most vivid and moving protrait of alcoholism around. Not for the squeamish, but its a lot better to watch this than to watch someone bleed out ...
