This work reminds its lucky viewers why they fell in love with movie-going to begin with: the creative minds behind the frames that paint moving images to feed our imaginations.

Sure you let past hints of background slip as you want so much to buy into this back story. But ultimately you're left still asking, "What is Wolverine. And why?" ...Read on->

Here's a film you probably sneered at as its ads played for its mega-plex roll out. I beg you not to let you keep that from now buying the DVD.

4th and Long
(2008)

Emily Blunt

Even with the tiny hang nails these guys have made 4th and Long one helluva hilarious film that should be a cult classic if it's given the chance.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
(2008)
|
Emily Blunt

The film's over two and half hours so go when you are in the mood to just escape into a fairy tale. Take a moment to search around the gorgeous sets and remember, a film like this doesn't get made these days. Wait, it does and it did.

Did I mention lately how very much I love Tim Burton's brain? Few could have taken, would have dared to take, a musical stage play of this depth and managed to make it into such a beautiful film. Burton and his gang have though. Read On->

Dear readers Bruckheimer pulled a Bruckheimer. I am a huge fan of his action packed plot-lite escape t the movies. But, in Pirates 3 the mega-producer took a diamond of a franchise and shattered it into sand.

The Science of Sleep
(2006)

Michel Gondry is to visual art as Van Gogh is to post-impressionism; vivid bold and fearless, the seam of reality is present but you're never quite sure where they will lead your emotions, while taking an established artform to a different level.
