American Sniper (2014) Play Streaming

A shrewd and very well-made picture.. American Sniper romanticizes Kyle, whose bestselling memoir, which put him on talk-show appearances, included boastful stories of dubious authenticity. What remains is distilled and dramatized, a story of loss, the story of the universal soldier.. There's a difference between a film about a man reluctant to acknowledge the psychological toll of what he endured and a movie that basically doesn't want to talk about it or question it, or think about it, period....

Red Dawn (2012) Full Movie Streaming

Indecently exploits 9/11 and throws in autism and canver for unscrupulous measure.. Could be fun, you might think. No. Bad acting and worse dialogue quickly put an end to that notion.. North Koreans? Falling from the sky? Seriously?. Just really, really lame, right down to the Communist symbols that adorn the revised Stars and Stripes.. Take that, screaming North Koreans with no agenda!. Scenes are rather murkily shot and characters are like cardboard cutouts.. The uneasy combination of the Worl...

1944 (2015) Full Streaming

Thank you for giving information about the film. this a good movie to be watched for sure.. The excellent performances by the cast are also what raise this movie well above your ordinary action movie.. I really like this movie. thank you. Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. Music perfectly fits with the movie, the story can't tear myself away from the screen for hours. Really GREAT movie!!. The film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it ...

Behind Enemy Lines (2001) Full Streaming

The cast is excellent and the screenplay, by Frank Cottrell Boyce and Andy Paterson, is delicately attuned to the emotional cost of war and the terrible struggle to be healed.. Beautifully acted, The Railway Man is profoundly moving, and yet, somehow, its sentimental ending manages to be both unearned and predictable.. Directed by first-timer John Moore on the strength of his work on a Sega game ad, which may tell you everything you need to know about its visual sense and narrative nonsense.. If...

Adam Resurrected (2008) Download Movie

. One cannot recommend this film strongly enough.. The director, Paul Schrader, tries for cleansing audacity, but ends up too close to farce.. In a less competitive year, Jeff Goldblum would have had a shot at an Oscar nod.. You've got to hand it to Schrader: He pulls off enough of this impressionistic comedy to provoke passions and arguments anew about a topic that seems done to death.. Even when it flies off the rails deep into its third act, Resurrected remains strangely hypnotic.. . I can te...

Flags of Our Fathers (2006) Full Movie Streaming

Eastwood's two-film project is one of the most visionary of all efforts to depict the reality and meaning of battle.. Flags of Our Fathers is an accomplished, stirring, but, all in all, rather strange movie.. . If the larger vision in Flags is somewhat out of focus, there are many small glimpses and grace notes that show Eastwood's well-developed sense of the particular in revealing a larger truth.. In his no-nonsense style, the 76-year-old filmmaker is merely telling the story he was given.. Sy...

Code Unknown (2000) Play Streaming

Even more impressive is the way Haneke evokes violence without showing it, and whips up tension and dread without music or any of the manipulative tricks so popular among Hollywood filmmakers.. Unfortunately, [Haneke's] often too cryptic, which leaves viewers still trying to make connections when they should already be reacting to the moral lessons implied by them.. The violence, in short, remains unseen, but that makes it no easier to bear; what lurks and wails behind a wall is, for Haneke, the...
