Bit slow and padded out, but shows the plight of small children in emerging countries..........think is way worse in Brazil! Basic story has to be drawn out for quite a time to make the film, so plenty of padding.
Quite clever film showing how a child in difficult circumstances deals with his demons....by creating a monster to control them all.....
Similar to Zootropolis but not as clever. Lots of folks getting some money for odd little voice overs, so prob not as cheap film as would think?
Is OK. Not too much lurid language. If liked 31, will like 32..............and vice versa............
Bit culty arty crafty for me. Is proper filmatographic deal. Critics will love all the clever photo shots and oddball, and ordinary folk switch off in 5 minutes. Have to give it 3, or will look like Philistine........Only Jim Jarmusch i could really watch was Ghost Dog.......and i loved Bagdad Cafe, which started a lot of this genre off, very big in France apparently! Have watched Paris Texas twice! Mainly due to hypnotic Ry Cooder music :)
Dont blink, or you may miss Andy Garcia....hope he wasn't actually paid for his half minute!
Have to give it a 4 as Gravity was just so pitiful. Almost nobody in the film. The two main people carry it right through. Must have been about 1/6th the price of Gravity.
Hunger Games lady is not exotic, but has some way of keeping attention going, and credibility.
Sheen is great fun as the barman, looks even more like Tony Blair. Even has the robotic smile!!!
Nice little, simple, film. Would have cost very little, but has been well done and acted. Similar to the little Brit films of a few years ago. No excess of swearing, or over dramatic violence. Makes it quite a rarity amongst all the rubbish............
Mc G lot different shape in this one. Yet another loosely based on some facts etc. Bit like Depp in Blow etc etc. Is OK and would have liked to see the normal pics at end of actual people etc.
That often best part of these films!!
Not sure what the modern kids make of the old Disney films, but they were new ideas then, and so much work. Bet they still would watch them now, but have to be young!
Little wagon for Michael and Morgan to grab some funds. At least not another Marvel comic extravaganza. Is OK and rolls along, but not a rivet.
If liked the first one OK will watch this one OK. At least not excessive or continual F word, like most offerings from US. Maybe Trump has some input?
Is bit of light fun. Not the same characters as in Red films, and Michael and Morgan just going through the motions, but passes the time. Loads worse about, and i mean loads.
Looks like Ryan can actually play piano pretty well. Not really in Cabaret class, but if like musicals is good one for you.
Check other write ups. The excess of computer input is for certain. J Depp looks like is up for another vehicle of continuous money.
Got fed up with Potter and Rings, and probably not be fussed about more of these.
Men in Black did it better.
Ramps along quite well on a big screen, so kids will enjoy it.
Had to give it a 4, just to spite the never ending junk coming out of the US. Often with so called big names, earning big bucks, for swearing and hitting folks...or shooting, as appears to be the main hobby over there.
Amazing to see that there IS actually a system in place that can help those that can take it on. Film does show the devastating affect that drugs can make on society, and individuals/families.
Simple film with simple story. Alas the guy here is a very small minority of those that can make it out of the vortex of the street, and hats off to people that constantly try to help them. It must be like standing against the tide for sure...........
Hopefully Emily will not take up the cheap gun again. Normal group of official CIA and FBI running totally amok, oblivious of any limitations set by money, or munitions, or any apparent upper control strata.
Emily at one point found the nasty big gun a bit heavy to act with......probably a sign not to pick it up again............
