Dune (Extended Edition)666 reviews
Francesca Annis, Leonardo Cimino
Universal Studios, 2006
A story too complex for a standard movie
+ Classic
+ David Lynch was right!?!
The novel Dune is far too complex to be compressed into the standard 2 or 3 hour movie.
However, David Lynch has in fact successfully managed to summarize not only the basic story concept, but accurately captured the essence and spirit of the characters, the settings, and general atmosphere as ...

Body Snatchers: The Invasion Continues36 reviews
Gabrielle Anwar, Terry Kinney
Warner Home Video, 1999
Despite the flaws Body Snatchers is a fun ride
Body Snatchers, was the 3rd film version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers and one has to wonder why anyone felt the need for a 3rd version? This version lacks the creepy feel and campy feel of the original and lacks the bleak tone of the 1st remake. While Body Snatchers, was pointless and doesn't ...

Close Encounters of the Third Kind (30th Anniversary Ultimate Edition)302 reviews
Richard Dreyfuss, François Truffaut
Columbia Pictures, 2007
A magical Spielberg story
+ Movie
+ Three versions of a sci-fi classic in one DVD
Close Encounters is one of those Spielberg movies where you can really feel the magic. It isn't a downer, and it isn't the kind of movie that makes you think about the world's problems. Even the US government seems to have the best intentions when it comes to the aliens. The whole movie wears a ...

It's about more than emotion vs. science
+ intriguing
+ Mesmerising, bleak
I saw this movie some years ago and liked it a lot. What I remember most about it is something that is not mentioned in the last ten or so reviews: that it is not only government that has taken away liberties in this dystopian world, but also, and critically, private corporations.
