Olympus Has Fallen (2013) Full Movie Streaming

A handsome ensemble of blokes and one high-heeled accountant who propel this slam-bang romp about the collision of criminal styles in the age of globalization and real estate speculation.. Save your quarters for the video game.. RocknRolla is a recovery from the knockout blows of his past two films but Ritchie is certainly retreading familiar thematic territory.. A typical slab of Hollywood action in which the White House crumbles under attack, the American flag is tattered and tossed aside by b...

V for Vendetta (2006) Play Streaming

V won't win the Subtlety in Film Award, but fans of '70s movies especially will recognize that it's hardly out of line with the tradition of speculative fiction during times of strife.. This is not the movie, and these are not the times, for sophisticated arguments.. Whether you're mindless or Mensa, you'll find stuff here to challenge and trouble you, the way a good piece of speculative fiction should.. It becomes just another taste of every comic-book movie that isn't Sin City or A History of ...

Unbreakable (2000) Full Streaming

During a conversation between an astonished doctor and a miraculously unscathed Dunne ... it's a measure of Shyamalan's restraint and his uncanny knack for storytelling.. Samuel L. Jackson plays a comic-book-art collector named Elijah, as in the prophet, and his stare could probably burn a hole through Superman's Fortress of Solitude.. Thrill-kill plots, cardboard characters and zap-pow editing are not for Shyamalan, who takes his good, thoughtful time to snare audiences in his dark web.. An int...

The Illusionist (2006) Download Movie

Something of an overlong, overblown, disorganized mess, despite being slightly better than its predecessor.. As Johnny Depp has done so brilliantly with his devilish Jack Sparrow, Downey has made this sly sardonic Sherlock stylistically all his own. Case closed.. The story may be less than credible, but the performances are mostly good, and Giamatti makes an especially strong showing.. With exquisite performances (Giamatti's, in particular), it leaves you thrillingly hovering, happily uncommitte...

Lost River (2014) Play Streaming

. The film proves that Gosling has refined taste in movies, and that he's a quick study, but not that he has much to say as an artist. Not yet, anyway.. Unbreakable seems to have encouraged all its actors to emulate Willis' lugubrious pacing, meaning that usually vibrant actors such as Wright Penn and Jackson are not shown to their best advantage.. During a conversation between an astonished doctor and a miraculously unscathed Dunne ... it's a measure of Shyamalan's restraint and his uncanny kna...

X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) Full Streaming

Limitless is frustrating, in part, because it could have been much better.. [Singer is] reborn - deft, elegant, spring-heeled - in X-Men: Days of Future Past. The special effects don't bog him down: They lift the movie to a surreal and more emotional dimension.. Once it reaches takeoff velocity, "Days of Future Past" becomes one of the best installments in the "X-Men" series.. The plot is about a fearful society whose expansion of its security apparatus has unintended consequences, but Singer do...

Prisoners (2013) Play Streaming

"Prisoners" is a dark, deeply serious examination of how loss can unhinge us; it grabs onto you, and you may have trouble shaking it away.. Quicksilver ... is the coolest of this picture's new guys, zipping around so fast ... that he can taste soup, rearrange guards' limbs, and nudge bullets off their trajectories all in the time it takes to blink.. I would be remiss not to note that tucked away amid all the existential melodrama is perhaps the most hilarious set piece ever to grace a superhero ...

The Hunger Games (2012) Full Streaming

The first book of Suzanne Collins's prodigiously popular trilogy has been brought to the screen with a Jumbotron sensibility, a shaky camera to emphasize the action and a shakier grip on the subject's emotional core.. Director Gary Ross' adaptation, co-scripted by Collins herself, isn't quite as crackingly paced as the novel, but it will more than satisfy existing fans of the trilogy and likely create many new ones.. Watching The Hunger Games, I was struck both by how slickly Ross hit his marks ...

Dawn of the Dead (2004) Download Full

The remake, from first-time director Snyder, keeps much of the gore and loads up on the laughs, but eschews all pretence at cultural criticism in favour of high-octane, almost nonstop action.. The joke isn't fresh, but it holds up well in this crackling remake of George Romero's 1978 sequel to Night of the Living Dead.. ... bloody good fun.. [Sarah Polly] pretty much owns the picture, beginning with a slam-dunk prologue that establishes right off that this isn't your dad's Dawn, despite a plot t...

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) Download Full

Here's a thought for the inevitable next film in this series: Ditch the humans. Stick with the apes. They're a lot more interesting.. For all its high-end special effects and its Shakespearean ambitions, Dawn fumbles its emotional moments and forces its action.. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes gets to be exciting and to say something about the world instead of merely blowing it up. The apes are among the more intellectually complex characters you're likely to spend time with this summer.. Maybe t...

Goodnight Mommy (2015) Play Streaming

This is deft and daring storytelling that will grip anyone who's willing to be a little uncomfortable - make that a lot uncomfortable - and who's willing to follow it into some dark and twisted territory.. A hefty part of the suspense stems from the fact no one seems to be behaving rationally: not mommy, not the kids.. Here is a horror film that features very little screaming, except from the theater audience.. Goodnight Mommy plays on the nerves with expert cruelty-so much so, actually, that by...

Into the Blue (2005) Watch Full Movie

With Unbreakable , Mr. Shyamalan establishes himself as a distinctive auteur with a very personal style.. Alas, there is no treasure, buried or otherwise, but only fool's gold in the silly script.. Where Gosling goes wrong is in the priggish bombast. Instead of Refn and Lynch's self-contained worlds, he attempts Serious Commentary about the American Dream. But the actor shows no understanding of how poverty works.. Samuel L. Jackson plays a comic-book-art collector named Elijah, as in the prophe...

This is the single best movie I have ever seen.Thanks for your movie info.. The excellent performances by the cast are also what raise this movie well above your ordinary action movie.. A movie can have a superb story, amazing cinematography, and mesmerizing writing as well as directing, but without the talent to deliver it all, it finds itself lacking. Great!!. Music perfectly fits with the movie, the story can't tear myself away from the screen for hours. Really GREAT movie!!. The best movie I...

RockNRolla (2008) Play Movie

Style is what RocknRolla is all about. And it has it in spades, from the cockney Pulp Fiction dialogue to the music-video editing of the rambling narrative.. RocknRolla isn't as jammed with visual pyrotechnics as Ritchie's Lock, Stock and Smoking Barrel (1998), but that's OK, because with anything more happening, the movie could induce motion sickness.. Scarier, funnier and more entertaining than it has a right to be.. ... bloody good fun.. Has many of the elements that made the first Dawn so da...

The Transporter Refueled (2015) Watch Full Movie

"The Transporter Refueled" is crass and nonsensical, but it is hard to hate .... The terror is sophisticated, chilling enough to set the hair of the art-house aficionados' goatees on end, but perhaps not to everyone's taste.. Paced with quiet deliberation, this is the rare horror movie where the mood gets darker as the filmmakers bring more light to the visuals.. There aren't enough showpiece numbers for Skrein, at least not of the quality that Jason Statham has had.. Here is a horror film that ...

The Da Vinci Code (2006) Watch Streaming

The Catholic Church has nothing to fear from this film. It is not just tripe. It is self-evident, spirit-lowering tripe that could not conceivably cause a single member of the flock to turn aside from the faith.. It has a more absorbing story and intriguing sensibility than Iron Man 3 or Man of Steel, and even when its action falters, this film is more original and exotic.. The film is a misconceived misfire, over-solemn for its first two acts and overstuffed with BLAM! POW! TEDIUM! at the clima...

Grillo's performance will make you wonder why he didn't start headlining movies like this before turning 50; his is the soft-spoken kind of charisma that helped make half of the Expendables into stars back in the '80s and '90s.. "The Purge: Anarchy" is a dirtied-up breath of fresh air, an old-school exploitation movie that does what it sets out to do.. "The Wolverine" is an erratic affair, more lumbering than compelling, an ambitious film with its share of effective moments that stubbornly refus...

The Wolverine (2013) Watch Full Movie

Although The Wolverine eventually falls back on a comic-book formula and CG effects (the climactic face-off between Logan and a giant silver warriorlike thing is totally generic), Mangold and his team find time to explore more nuanced realms .... Mangold front-loads the action, but near the end there's a first-rate fight atop a bullet train between Wolverine/Logan and some especially pesky ninjas. It puts the train fights in the recent The Lone Ranger to shame.. It restores the tarnished lustre ...

Anyone could imagine the better, cleaner, more coherent 90-min. film at the core of Horns: the one about the physics of apparent demonic possession.. What in the world is Mr. Radcliffe doing to himself in his post-Harry Potter movie career? Movies are supposed to be entertaining, and directors are supposed to protect their actors, not expose them to derision.. Hor...
