47% The Great Gatsby (2013) " Maguire open-mouth stupefaction dominates, Mulligan is miscast, and DiCaprio does his best to save his dignity." — Las Vegas Informer
Posted May 8, 2013
78% Iron Man 3 (2013) " Stupid and messy. The Most Beautiful Woman in the World has to go. Pepper must take "Happy" with her." — Las Vegas Informer
Posted May 1, 2013
46% Pain & Gain (2013) " Michael Bay delivers a terrific, violent, funny heist movie. Wahlberg once again throws himself into the role without movie star ego. He's fabulous - as it seems - always. I learned a lot about bodybuilders." — Las Vegas Informer
Posted Apr 25, 2013
8% K-11 (2013) " Who knew there was a special K-11 inmate division for LGBT criminals to run the dormitory, take drugs, dress up and have sex with the guards? " — Film Festival Today
Posted Apr 16, 2013
68% Trance (2013) " Convoluted and deliciously twisty but worth even a second viewing. I've been placed under hypnosis and it's not like this at all. Why isn't Vincent Cassel a huge star in the U.S.?" — Las Vegas Informer
Posted Apr 12, 2013
39% The Call (2013) " Thrilling, then it goes Hollywood stupid and then the best ending ever! Berry's hair co-stars and chews the scenery." — Film Festival Today
Posted Mar 17, 2013
38% The Incredible Burt Wonderstone (2013) " Jim Carrey walks off with the movie and he knows it." — Film Festival Today
Posted Mar 13, 2013
81% The Place Beyond The Pines (2013) " Morality is flexible and self-interest is paramount. Another terrific collaboration between director and star." — Film Festival Today
Posted Mar 13, 2013
43% Admission (2013) " Tina Fey's first big blunder. Cavalier and flippant regarding serious issues. Sloppy directing, terrible acting. Where is Helen Hunt when you need her?" — Film Festival Today
Posted Mar 13, 2013
52% Jack the Giant Slayer (2013) " Fee-fi-fo-fun! Singer has cleverly re-interpreted the fairy tale saving Jack's reputation. " — Film Festival Today
Posted Mar 1, 2013
59% The Last Stand (2013) " He's not back yet." — Film Festival Today
Posted Jan 18, 2013
30% Broken City (2013) " New Yorkers would never elect a man for mayor who wears bangs." — Film Festival Today
Posted Jan 17, 2013
93% Teddy Bear (2012) " It's Paddy Chayesky's Marty drenched in silent emotion." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Jan 13, 2013
89% Lincoln (2012) " Long, cheesy political monologues and crucifies the Lincoln legacy. What a torture! Director Steven Spielberg and screenwriter Tony Kushner turn the hallowed figure of Abraham Lincoln into a dreary sop. " — Film Festival Today
Posted Nov 12, 2012
92% Skyfall (2012) " Skyfall keeps mocking 007 as old and out-of-touch. He goes unshaven and fails his physical! The ice-cold erotic charge of an immaculately groomed Bond is dead. Fleming's 'blunt instrument' has bad knees. He's one of us now." — Film Festival Today
Posted Oct 29, 2012
33% Chasing Mavericks (2012) " At best, Butler (as the Mr. Miyagi of surfing) got to learn how to surf from a professional." — Film Festival Today
Posted Oct 25, 2012
12% Alex Cross (2012) " Matthew Fox is terrifying and awesome while Perry proves he cannot act, especially in emotional close-ups. I did like the phantasmagoric story" — Film Festival Today
Posted Oct 18, 2012
86% The Master (2012) " Homoerotic obsession with a very dangerous man. Hoffman plays a seductive, likeable Master. I remember the Lifespring cult in the 80s." — Film Festival Today
Posted Sep 18, 2012
39% The Possession (2012) " As Fox Mulder's poster proclaimed, "The tooth is out there" applies here, or is that the leap-off for the sequel? It's scary and real. I know two people with similar experiences with spirits contained in non-living objects. " — Film Festival Today
Posted Aug 30, 2012
77% Killer Joe (2012) " McConaughey eviscerates his rom-com/MAGIC MIKE legacy with an astonishing, terrifying performance. Makes Frank Booth and Max Cady look like the choir boys of seduction. Friedkin is back!" — Film Festival Today
Posted Aug 26, 2012
87% The Dark Knight Rises (2012) " Nolan created a nihilist anthem. He dumped Batman gadgetry. Makes every past superhero movie look like a boy's backyard staging of Star Wars. Bane takes the movie. Nolan plays to Bale's need to get badly beaten up. " — Film Festival Today
Posted Jul 18, 2012
73% The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) " All hail the screenwriters who turned around a rotting franchise by bringing forth a troubled superhero and his conflicted nemesis. The love interest failed." — Film Festival Today
Posted Jul 7, 2012
80% Magic Mike (2012) " Horrible. No story, overt homoeroticism, and the death-knell for McConaughey. Is this the same director who did the fabulous HAYWIRE?" — Film Festival Today
Posted Jun 29, 2012
95% Marina Abramovic: The Artist Is Present (2012) " Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! Yes, Abramovic is a seductress." — Film Festival Today
Posted Jun 26, 2012
43% To Rome with Love (2012) " Weak fluff but a devastating looks at no-talent celebrities. Only the harried, suddenly anointed celebrity tale was beautifully crafted satire." — Film Festival Today
Posted Jun 20, 2012
41% Rock of Ages (2012) " All hail mesmerizing Tom Cruise as Stacee Jaxx. There is way too much Hough and Boneta. Baldwin and Brand are the new "yes"." — Film Festival Today
Posted Jun 13, 2012
74% Prometheus (2012) " Fassbender's David is the film's centerpiece. Rapace plays the Hollywood girlfriend role instead of a steely protagonist on a messianic journey. Theron always commits fully to every character she plays." — Film Festival Today
Posted Jun 7, 2012
75% Sound of My Voice (2012) " Pretentious, self-serving vehicle glorifying Marling. If you can't get hired, write yourself a role where you are worshipped. Make sure you are the only good looking woman in the film with plenty of golden close-ups." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted May 16, 2012
38% Dark Shadows (2012) " Finally, Johnny Depp's first hot sex scene. He's got real chemistry with Eva Green. Makes you wonder what happened in The Tourist." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted May 11, 2012
100% Kinyarwanda (2011) " I've been to Rwanda. I have a strong perspective on the genocide." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted May 3, 2012
88% Titanic (2012) " Two spitting scenes in 3D and Jack Dawson loses his virginity. A second look indicates a cruel streak in the modern epic. " — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Apr 16, 2012
67% Friends With Kids (2012) " Westfeldt's sloppy love letter to herself and corralled Hamm's friends to help sell it. " — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Mar 10, 2012
56% In the Land of Blood and Honey (2011) " A brilliant debut written and directed by Jolie. She has an artist's eye, strong personal vision, and a masterful command of her stars. " — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Feb 29, 2012
87% Bullhead (2012) " Like Tom Hardy in BRONSON, Matthias Schoenaerts gives a riveting, magnetic star making performance in this twist-turning gangster tale with a highly unusual backstory." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Feb 15, 2012
53% Safe House (2012) " Ignore the CIA agent gone rouge-laded story. Director Daniel Espinosa delivers a tense, Bourne-style action thriller with bold city streets car chases and messy, bloody fights in hallways." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Feb 8, 2012
85% Chronicle (2012) " Stands above the rest in the "found footage" genre. I want more." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Feb 5, 2012
13% W.E. (2012) " Madonna's second feature film establishes her as a director, but her sticking to the official myth is laughable. It never bothers to answer the haunting question, "Why Wallis?"" — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Feb 3, 2012
32% Man on a Ledge (2012) " Puts you on the ledge." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Jan 26, 2012

Posted Jan 24, 2012
20% The Invasion (2007) Movie Reviews in Croatian
Posted Jan 24, 2012
80% Haywire (2012) " The perfect heir to Ripley. Fassbender's scenes give the movie an alarming erotic jolt. You actually believe this woman can fight a man and win. " — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Jan 22, 2012
94% Coriolanus (2011) " Fiennes' modern interpretation is absolutely brilliant. There is pronounced homoeroticism and mother-fixation." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Jan 13, 2012
51% Contraband (2012) " Tense, high speed action but with terrible acting, especially Ribisi and J.K. Simmons. " — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Jan 12, 2012
76% We Need to Talk About Kevin (2012) " "We're still blaming mothers." - Joyce Flint, Jeffrey Dahmer's mother." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Dec 30, 2011
72% Carnage (2011) " A comedy? Lazy, tedious Polanski. It's all about putting on and taking off coats. Moviegoers will not rush out to the theater after seeing this." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Dec 28, 2011
93% Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol (2011) " Best line of 2011 delivered by Jeremy Renner: "That's it. Next time I get to seduce the rich guy." Why is MI4 so terrific? I screamed out in the theater: "The pants are gonna rip!"" — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Dec 26, 2011
46% Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close (2012) " I hated the kid." — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Dec 25, 2011
86% The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011) " Fincher's Twilight-like Hollywood heroine is shy and moody. Not the venal, alternate lifestyle lesbian-punk hacker from the beloved book. Anybody else think Mara's sex scenes with Craig were done by a body double?" — FilmsInReview.com
Posted Dec 24, 2011
80% Shame (2011) " Sex and incest. Michael Fassbinder electrifies. Unfairly an NC-17 movie." — FilmsInReview.com
