The Fall



Not a lot of people liked the Cell. I did. And it was scary. Tarsem Singh is back with a new movie. And it looks visually cool. The story is probably not bad either.

Where in the World is Osama bin Laden? -- Trailer



This looks funny ... really, really funny

The Visitor - Movie Trailer



What happens when people try to make a difference? This looks like a nice feel-good drama.

The Counterfeiters - Movie Trailer



Wow! This is actually a true story. During the second world war, the Nazis decided to flood the UK with counterfeit money, to destabilize its economy. They recruited Salomon Sorowitsch, a master forger, from the concentration camps to help them.

Taxi To The Dark Side - Movie Trailer



This is a very important documentary. How did the greatest country in the world descend to such darkness? Happens when it's ruled by evil tyrants.

The Band's Visit (Bikur Hatizmoret) Trailer



Not long ago, an Egyptian police band arrived in Israel, to play at the Arab Cultural Center. But they took the wrong bus.

I saw this movie tonight. It was incredible. It was quiet, slow, beautiful -- and out-loud-laughing funny. Knowing the resentment between Arabs and Jews, this film begs for them to just look at each other, and see themselves for who they are -- the same people. It was brilliant. You shouldn't miss it.

Oh ... I don't know ... it's probably a waste of time. You think?

Doomsday Trailer



This movie takes itself too seriously.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull



I don't care what the critics will say about this one, but on May 22nd (or maybe a couple of days later), I will be in line waiting for Doctor Jones.

The Spiderwick Chronicles



Opening this Friday, Feb. 15th!

Update: Feb. 16, 2008
I saw the movie tonight, with my youngest. We had supper at Mucho Burrito, then caught the film on Imax. It was a pretty good movie. The effects weren't too bad, and Freddy Highmore was excellent, playing the two brothers in the movie. This one is worth watching in the theatres.

Kung Fu Panda



In theatres on June 6th!

The Happening Teaser Trailer



Updated: June 18, 2008
I saw the Happening on June 13th -- opening day -- with the crew from work. The Happening was not happening -- not for me -- and not for most in the theatre. The movie was fine, it had a good pace, and demonstrated that when weird shit happens in America, most of the dumb people come out to play. It is a testament to how not happening this movie was, that M. Night Shyamalan skipped his usual cameo appearance. The movie kept promising that something was going to happen. Not just the weirdness of people going zombie before playing the sacrificial lamb for the audience -- but more. There was supposed to be more. At the end, the truth behind the weirdness was going to be revealed. But it wasn't. That's because we were already told that the trees were making people kill themselves at the very beginning of the movie. That's it. I really went to the movie with high expectations from Shyamalan. I was disappointed. If you haven't seen it, wait for the DVD release.
