Serenity (2005) Online Streaming

Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. Joss Whedon makes a rousing feature-directing debut, exploiting the cult status of his short-lived series Firefly to continue it on the big screen.. Whedon knows that he's blazing down a well-worn trail, but he addresses that by deftly adding elements of humor, action, romance and horror and continually confounding audience expectations.. Music perfectly fits with the movie, the story can't tear myself away from the scree...

Battleship (2012) Full Streaming

Mostly, Battleship is a noisy, overlong and numbing military-vs.-aliens saga with laughably bad dialogue.. Battleship is all noise and crashing metal, sinking to the shallows of Michael Bay's Armageddon and then digging to the brain-extinction level of the Transformers trilogy.. Every minute of this action packed movie is amazing. This is the single best movie I have ever seen. All of the actors do great jobs at their roles from the villains to the side characters they all give convincing perfor...

The Bank Job (2008) Watch Full Movie

A tight, classic-feeling film about losers banding together for one big score, then scrambling furiously as they realize they're in over their heads. It's fast, nifty, sharp and sweet.. Thanks to the twin pens of screenwriters Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais, what a jam-packed and misanthropic fiction this is.. There will be abundant laying waste of unworthy opponents, and the groans you hear will not be his.. There's nothing here as lively as In Bruges or as arty as the recent London to Brighto...

Ocean's Thirteen (2007) Play Movie

At the end, we stagger like Ralston from the dark into the light. We might have both our arms left, but our nerves are just as terrorised.. Flat, abstruse, predictable and unable to raise your pulse rate higher than a blip on an EKG.. . Hilarity-free.. The latest from Danny Boyle is actually an ode to survival, a bracing story of man and nature and an exhilarating sensory experience. It's my favorite movie so far this year.. Something seems to be off when the actors onscreen are having a better ...

Shutter Island (2010) Online Streaming

Sorry, but the late reward hardly justifies all that punishment.. Showing an explosive temper and a wounded psyche, DiCaprio eerily channels the great Richard Widmark, a film noir giant, as Teddy, a shaky World War II veteran still at war with his memories.. A brilliantly constructed mystery.. Its overripe atmospherics put it in that rare class of failures that can only be made by talented people falling on their face while reaching for the moon.. Martin Scorsese's elephantine exercise in B-movi...

Tracers (2015) Download Movie

With escape as its theme, this thin-plotted pleaser comes hard and goes fast, its rush premium but fleeting.. Lautner keeps his best assets - a super-ripped body - mostly well hidden while trying gamely to sell a very hackneyed storyline.. Corny twists and exchanges ensue in the wobbly story, but, delightfully, Daniel Benmayor's film shows love not just for stunts but for the dynamic surfaces of the city.. "The Fast and the Furious" - except slower and less incensed.. Tracers seems destined to d...

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012) Download Full

Some sequels suggest that no one involved with a franchise really cares anymore.. Diagramming every revolution of Jovovich in wheeling and whirling action, however, Anderson is pitch-perfect when singing the body electric.. Thuddingly awful.. During the film's final sequence the director explains all while also suggesting that the franchise's nuttiest days are, remarkably, yet to come.. A zombie plague may have laid waste the world, but apparently supplies of black leather unitards have yet to b...
