• June, 2010

• The Secret in Their Eyes (2009) 10/10

  2010-06-21 02:07

  

  The plot unfolds slowly but steadily, and the acting is superb. Manages to be very much a personal story while touching subjects on the corrupt government in Argentina. I've seldom seen a film deserve an oscar more than this one.

  0.3

• Smokin' Aces 2: Assassins' Ball... 6/10

  2010-06-21 01:53

  

  this straight-to-dvd sequel, is a pretty decent sequel, despite it's obviously lower budget. And like the original, the major plot twist is seen coming from a mile away.

  0.3

• When in Rome (2010) 2/10

  2010-06-10 14:09

  

  Without a doubt the worst film i've seen this year so far... The script is terrible clichéd, and the dialogue makes the actors appear as wooden dolls. Supposed to be a romantic comedy, but contains neither romantic nor comedic moments.

  0.3

• Primer (2004) 8/10

  2010-06-10 13:58

  

  One of the few time travel films that depicts it in a realistic way. It has a simple plot told in a convoluted way or a convulated plot told in a simple, depending on your point of view. A good film that could use repeat viewings to fully understand.

  0.3

• Unthinkable (2010) 7/10

  2010-06-10 13:51

  

  Interesting thriller about torture interrogation/torture. Surprisingly well cast. The final ended being too theatrical, which takes some away from the overall film.

  0.3

• Armadillo (2010) 8/10

  2010-06-09 02:53

  

  A great documentary about soldiers stationed in the Helmand province of Afghanistan. The is no interviews or narration, only pure footage that is incredibly beautiful shot. The catch however, is that we the viewers never get under their skin, and is left with a lot of tough talk, and not a lot of emotion.

  0.3

• Brooklyn Rules (2007) 5/10

  2010-06-09 01:53

  

  It's mostly hit and miss with this film. In short, it's a story about 3 friends in Brooklyn, but there's never any real developement of the character's. And the point's are hammered in with a jackhammer. Alec Baldwin's small role as the gangster Caeser, is the highlight of this film

  0.3

• The Book of Eli (2010) 7/10

  2010-06-09 01:47

  

  The plot is pretty simple, but still mostly fails to engage your curiosity of the characters. Instead it's the well thought out visual environment that makes this film worth watching. The ending does make up for parts of the story's shortcomings.

  0.3

• Exam (2009) 5/10

  2010-06-09 01:47

  

  Probably a great idea on paper, but as it turns out not so much on film. Most of the film is used by the main cast to argue and discuss irrelevant matters, instead of solving a very important matter at hand.

  0.3

• May, 2010

• Ghosts of Mars (2001) 3/10

  2010-05-17 18:42

  

  What promises to be a sort of "space" version of the Thing but soon turns out be a lowbudget mess, that somehow has plenty of unnecessary explosions. Natasha Henstridge does the only decent acting in this film.

  0.3

• Legion (2010) 5/10

  2010-05-16 17:50

  

  The film never manages to live up to it's true potential, and the characters struggle with their cardboard thin characters.

  0.3

• Daybreakers (2009) 6/10

  2010-05-04 14:38

  

  The overall concept is great. But the plot really doesn't live up to your expectations. The acting is so-so and the ending falls flat.

  0.3

• Juno (2007) 7/10

  2010-05-03 16:43

  

  the dialogue is mostly well written and acted, but the music and "cartoon" effects are distracting and annoying.

  0.3

• Edge of Darkness (2010) 7/10

  2010-05-01 19:25

  

  Good comeback by Mel Gibson. The story feels a little uneven at times, but a very decent thriller.

  0.3

• April, 2010

• Iron Man 2 (2010) 8/10

  2010-04-29 14:19

  

  a worthy sequel to the first film, that drops various hints that will tie into other marvel superheroes.

  0.3

• March, 2010

• Where the Wild Things Are (2009) 7/10

  2010-03-02 02:12

  

  Spike Jonze has created an amazing universe based on a aprox. 5 page book, but it does feel a bit hollow.

  0.3

• Blade Runner - Final Cut (1982) 9/10

  2010-03-02 02:08

  

  this restored and improved version really highlights how amazing and multilayered this film is.

  0.3

• February, 2010

• A Perfect Getaway (2009) 6/10

  2010-02-25 08:27

  

  the first 10 min of this film almost made me turn it off. And although this isnt a fantastic film,i'm glad i didnt. It has enough twists and turns to keep you entertained throughout.

  0.3

• Beck - I stormens öga (2009) 7/10

  2010-02-25 08:21

  

  this new action beck, doesnt fit as well as the makers might believe. Still its 90 min of good entertainment.

  0.3

• Kollegiet (2007) 4/10

  2010-02-25 08:18

  

  Unfortuntantly for this film, budget isn't the only thing it's low on. This also goes for originality, creativity as well as few other things.

  0.3

• Gone Baby Gone (2007) 7/10

  2010-02-06 07:47

  

  pretty good directorial debut bye Ben Affleck and brother Casey does well as main character. However it's too easy too figure out the story's big twists.

  0.3

• Goodbye Bafana (2007) 8/10

  2010-02-06 07:45

  

  Interesting look at the time of apartheid in South Africa. As well as some fine acting by Joseph Fiennes and Dennis Haysbert.

  0.3

• Zodiac (2007/I) 9/10

  2010-02-06 07:35

  

  Great mystery drama based on real event. Though it can be problematic to set the film in a 10+ years timeline and with so many characters, it is handled very well mostly.

  0.3

• The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) 9/10

  2010-02-06 07:32

  

  An incredibly look into the consequences of the British empire and the human sacrifices of fighting for your independence.

  0.3

• Zwartboek (2006) 8/10

  2010-02-01 00:57

  

  Great film about the Dutch Resistance that works especially well thanks to main protagonist played by Carice van Houten.

  0.3

• Frost/Nixon (2008) 8/10

  2010-02-01 00:47

  

  Great acting all around, but it is the great work of Frank Langella, that makes you almost like the biggest crook to ever be president... Nixon.

  0.3

• Serious Moonlight (2009) 4/10

  2010-02-01 00:42

  

  Waste of potential and actors, and the ending can be seen from miles away.

  0.3

• Triangle (2009) 8/10

  2010-02-01 00:39

  

  Excellent small film that crosses between horror and mystery, while treating filosofical subjects.

  0.3

• January, 2010

• 2012 (2009/I) 4/10

  2010-01-24 15:09

  

  Somehow makes the big explosions and destructions boring, as well overstaying it's welcome by atleast 40 minutes, thanks in part to way too many story-arcs.

  0.3

• The Conversation (1974) 10/10

  2010-01-18 15:13

  

  A small masterpiece. Tensions builds slowly and steady, while leaving you to ponder the sanity of the paranoid Harry Caul.

  0.3

• The Maltese Falcon (1941) 8/10

  2010-01-18 15:10

  

  Bogart is great as the coldblooded PI Sam Spade. The pacing feels very fast compared to it's time. Peter Lorre leads a good supporting cast.

  0.3

• Law Abiding Citizen (2009) 6/10

  2010-01-17 20:27

  

  Vengeance flick that builds up nicely towards a climax that ultimately falls flat.

  0.3

• Pleasantville (1998) 8/10

  2010-01-15 13:28

  

  Clever way of using color, and treat subjects such as race segregation.

  0.3

• Død snø (2009) 7/10

  2010-01-15 13:17

  

  Great to see an ambitious scandinavian horror film like this. Too bad the pretty girl dies so fast.

  0.3

• Largo Winch (2008) 7/10

  2010-01-14 17:40

  

  Sort of a french take on a bond series. Complete with exotic locations, fast cars and dangerous women.

  0.3

• Dog Soldiers (2002) 7/10

  2010-01-14 17:30

  

  well thought out take on the survival-horror genre, but does has its shortcomings as a low-budget film.

  0.3

• The Silencers (1966) 6/10

  2010-01-12 12:44

  

  Dean Martin wanted his own Bond-franchise, feels more like austin powers. The camp-factor makes it watchable.

  0.3

• Whiteout (2009) 4/10

  2010-01-12 12:40

  

  Solving murders in Antarctica, sounds like an exciting concept right? except it's not. The suspense never builds up, partly because you dont really care what happens with the protaganists.

  0.3

• Rushmore (1998) 6/10

  2010-01-12 12:38

  

  funny at times, but still feels pretty overrated.

  0.3

• The Invention of Lying (2009) 5/10

  2010-01-12 12:35

  

  The idea of this film was probably much better on paper. But treating subjects like religion wrapped in a romantic comedy is no easy task. and ultimately doesnt work.

  0.3

• Funny People (2009) 7/10

  2010-01-12 12:31

  

  sweet comedy drama that takes forever to get too the obvious end. The standup comedy bits are really the best part of this.

  0.3

• Arn - Riket vid vägens slut (2008) 6/10

  2010-01-12 12:30

  

  Suffers from the same problems as the first part, and the climax feels a little flat.

  0.3

• Arn - Tempelriddaren (2007) 6/10

  2010-01-12 12:23

  

  Nice to see a big scale production like this from Scandinavia, but ultimately is too slowly paced and focused to much on the somewhat cliché lovestory.

  0.3

• Up in the Air (2009/I) 8/10

  2010-01-12 11:57

  

  comedy drama, that manages to be equally fun and intelligent. Clooney is excellent.

  0.3

• Pandorum (2009) 9/10

  2010-01-12 11:50

  

  Going into this without any knowledge, is the best way to see this film.

  0.3

• Miami Vice (2006) 7/10

  2010-01-12 11:42

  

  Movie version of the famous series. Nice update of the concept, but somehow it's missing the soundtrack and the pastel colours.

  0.3

• Casablanca (1942) 9/10

  2010-01-12 11:29

  

  Bogart showes his amazing acting skills, backed up by equally taletented actors. Truly a great film.

  0.3

• September, 2009

• Inglourious Basterds 8/10

  2009-09-10 08:00

  

  potential to be a classic, time will tell.

  0.3

• July, 2009

• Miss March 2/10

  2009-07-25 03:03

  

  Simple concept and still they manage to screw it up. Never funny and at 90 min it feels about 80 min too long.

  0.3

• Beerfest 5/10

  2009-07-23 03:01

  

  ridiculous film, but it knows it, and pushes it to the max, and evil germans are always funny.

  0.3

• Van Wilder: Freshman Year 2/10

  2009-07-23 02:59

  

  probably the worst film i've seen all year.

  0.3

• The Hangover 7/10

  2009-07-14 23:33

  

  Very funny at moments. The cast has great on-screen chemistry, and the story is almost like an exciting detective-story.

  0.3

• Ghosts of Girlfriends Past 5/10

  2009-07-13 23:31

  

  Matthew McConaughey does what he does best. He plays himself in a romcom that does have a few laughs, but ultimately falls pretty flat.

  0.3

• Mon meilleur ami 7/10

  2009-07-12 18:07

  

  François Coste is a man without friends, played well by "Daniel Auteuil", who enters a bet to present his best friend within 10 days. A Sweet comedy with emotionel balance and some fine fine acting.

  0.3

• Watchmen - Directors Cut 8/10

  2009-07-11 20:00

  

  The directors cut version has a much better pacing, but still tends to focus to much on the characters and neglects the story.

  0.3

• Man of the Year 7/10

  2009-07-06 19:53

  

  Robin Williams play's a Jon Stewart-esque character who runs for president and wins! Robin is very much in his ace, with a great suppporting cast including: Christopher Walken, Jeff Goldblum and Lewis Black. The story is not without it's problems, but the great cast helps outweigh the at times silly story.

  0.3

• June, 2009

• Sorte kugler 7/10

  2009-06-22 19:45

  

  "Anden's" directorial debut which is also written by him and stars him as the main character. It's very much a oneman show, which is really a pity since other great comedians co-star but dont get very much screentime. Very funny at times, but i can't stop feeling "Anden" took the easy way out.

  0.3

• Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen 7/10

  2009-06-21 19:37

  

  This second tranformers movie tries to set a mythology, but we all know its more of a franchise that continue as long as people pay to watch. Lots of big explosions, big robots, and lots and lots of dumb fun. runs a little long though.

  0.3

• Paul Blart: Mall Cop 5/10

  2009-06-17 15:53

  

  few laughs and poorly written script. Relies heavily on Kevin James' weight for laughs, but falls mostly short.

  0.3

• Body Of Lies 7/10

  2009-06-16 21:20

  

  great suspenseful film, with some solid acting. Mark Strong steals all the scenes he is in, while Russell Crow is great as the fat CIA boss. However, the ending doesn't really live up to the rest of the film.

  0.3

• Terminator Salvation 7/10

  2009-06-14 19:34

  

  one of two major summer flicks involving big destructive robots. McG directs the post-nuclear usa, and it looks spectacular. However the story and acting is not at its best. Still major fun.

  0.3

• May, 2009

• Zapped Again! 2/10

  2009-05-29 18:45

  

  Starts out being moderetly fun. It ends quickly. Story is predictable, plot is all over the place.

  0.3

• Slumdog Millionaire 9/10

  2009-05-26 21:12

  

  Fantastic journey through Mumbai. The story is so simple, yet so original. The Camera work is incredible at times. Not so much a film as it was an experience.

  0.3

• Kandidaten 6/10

  2009-05-26 21:09

  

  This thriller starts of well with engaging characters and story, but slowly the plot starts to fall apart and the plotholes become to big in the end.

  0.3

• Role Models 7/10

  2009-05-24 20:06

  

  While the story is hardly original or well written, the film makes up for it with great character chemistry and dialogue. Paul Rudd is great along with several supporting characters stealing scenes.

  0.3

• Sicko 8/10

  2009-05-21 07:35

  

  Michael Moore's latest look at the faults of his country. In Sicko he keeps to behind the camera for the most of the time, letting the various characters tell their story, and what frightening and depressing story's they can tell about the american social system.

  0.3

• Forgetting Sarah Marshall 9/10

  2009-05-21 05:20

  

  Another great film from the Apatow "family". The story is very simple, but is an advantage as we get time to know the characters and their quirks. The dialogue is some of the best and most funny in the film.

  0.3

• Shaun Of the Dead 9/10

  2009-05-20 21:03

  

  A Modern Zombie Classic, and a personal favourite of mine. The dialogue is fast and witty with the same kind of humour that made Spaced great.

  0.3

• Good Dick 7/10

  2009-05-11 23:00

  

  Boy meets girl. Girl rejects boy. Many times. Simple drama/comedy that works mainly through the good chemistry between the leads.

  0.3

• Fanboys 5/10

  2009-05-01 16:00

  

  Pretty much the standard comedy roadtrip movie, with lots and lots of Star Wars jokes and gags. The actors seem to struggle with their characters.

  0.3

• April, 2009

• When Harry Met Sally... 8/10

  2009-04-28 09:43

  

  This '89 classic still holds up nicely. The dialogue is fast and funny, especially when Billy Crystal is talking and Meg Ryan is adorable.

  0.3

• The Incredible Hulk 6/10

  2009-04-27 02:00

  

  While the film will entertain you for 2 hours with is action-sequences and cameos, there is not much story. Also while the cast is impressive, they unfortunantely don't get enough to work with.

  0.3

• The Wrestler 10/10

  2009-04-26 20:00

  

  Mickey Rourke is fantastic as this modern day gladiator. Many scenes are shot almost documentary-style which just adds to the feel of realism in the film, along with the fights, that are incredibly uncomfortable to watch. One of the best films of 2008.

  0.3

• Plane Dead 5/10

  2009-04-26 10:57

  

  has a surprisingly good build-up for a Z-movie, but about halfway through all that goes out the window. However it is still more enjoyable than it's snake counterpart.

  0.3

• The Informers 9/10

  2009-04-24 19:15

  

  Overcoming the high number of characters and their limited screentime, The Informers manages to tell each of the interweaving storys. Along a great acting cast and soundtrack, makes this a great viewing experience.

  0.3

• Franklyn 5/10

  2009-04-23 06:21

  

  Unfortunately, impressive set design & solid acting from Eva Green does not make up for the uninteresting and predictable story in this film about beliefs.

  0.3

• Crank: High Voltage 7/10

  2009-04-19 20:01

  

  Pick's up where the original left off, but this one is even more insane and actionpaced. Never lets you take a breather while it entertains and amuses you for 85 min.

  0.3

• Let the Right One In 10/10

  2009-04-15 12:43

  

  Cinematography is fantastic, acting superb, story great. I can't seem to find anything i dislike.

  0.3

• Yes Man 6/10

  2009-04-13 12:23

  

  No laugh out loud moments. It is still entertaining enough to keep you interested throughout and Jim Carrey shows a few times he can still be funny. But mostly he just tries to hard.

  0.3

• The Spirit 6/10

  2009-04-13 09:33

  

  A godawful mess. Like a mixture of Sin City and the Wile E. Coyote & Road Runner cartoons on psychedelics. But if you can look beyond it, there's still fun to be had.

  0.3

• Dead Set 8/10

  2009-04-13 05:39

  

  Five-part miniseries about zombies and the big brother house. Follows the standard recipe, but still manages to be smart & entertaining, with the help of a good story, great acting and some social satire.

  0.3

• Bright Lights, Big City 6/10

  2009-04-13 02:38

  

  Time has not been kind on this film from '88. The flashbacks are cliché, and the story feels empty. Still good acting by Michael J. Fox and others.

  0.3

• Fast & Furious 6/10

  2009-04-11 21:15

  

  Overly sentimental, cheesy dialogue and boring badguy. Still, the racing and explosions is entertaining.

  0.3

• Observe and Report 8/10

  2009-04-11 17:15

  

  Guns, violence and indecent exposure. Seth Rogen is very funny as the lead in this film about a mallcop with sociopathic tendencies.

  0.3

• Running with Scissors 4/10

  2009-04-08 08:48

  

  Creator of Nip/Tuck, Ryan Murphy, directs this memoir of a boy in a dysfunctional family taken into fostercare of an even more dysfunctional family. However it is nowhere near as sharp or witty as Nip/Tuck.

  0.3

• Adventureland 9/10

  2009-04-03 08:25

  

  At first glance it looks like any other light-comedy, but it is so much more. A really great film!

  0.3

• March, 2009

• I Love You Man 8/10

  2009-03-29 08:00

  

  A very heartfelt comedy. The main characters all feel like genuine people, and the laughs comes from the great acting, and not lame gags.

  0.3

• World Builder 9/10

  2009-03-28 06:43

  

  fantastic little shortfilm about a man building a world for the woman he loves.

  0.3

• Monsters vs. Aliens: IMAX 3D 7/10

  2009-03-27 21:00

  

  decent entertainment, but it's the 3d effect that makes it stand out. It really looks incredible.

  0.3

• Knowing 5/10

  2009-03-22 19:15

  

  Nic Cage does his old routine in this average entertaining film with a poorly written story. Had potential for so much more.

  0.3
