The moral conundrum at the heart of Austrian director Stefan Ruzowitzky's The Counterfeiters is worthy of Kafka or Dostoevsky.. A conventional mixture of thriller and moral drama, the film is unsettling in both intentional and unintentional ways.. Awesome as director this is the first time that they have been together again Since training day powerful movie go see it!!!. The excellent performances...
Lore (2012) Full Movie Streaming
With a child's perspective on war, "Lore" deserves comparisons with "Empire of the Sun" and "Hope and Glory," and with a feisty female protagonist it stands virtually alone.. The director's two impulses -- to keep the audience hooked while illuminating the Palestinian plight -- never feel entirely compatible.. Full of surprises, the movie draws a thin line between pity and revulsion - how would you...
Flame & Citron (2008) Play Streaming
Madsen has acknowledged a strong debt to Pierre Melville's 1969 classic Army of Shadows. This one deserves a seat at the same table.. Flame & Citron, based on the lives of two actual Resistance heroes, is a taut, handsome production -- the most expensive Danish film to date -- and it looks like a film noir, as indeed the costumes, cars, guns and fugitives force it to.. Madsen makes the most of...
In the Land of Blood and Honey (2011) Play Streaming
It's impressively steady filmmaking for a first-timer, and a powerful, powerfully disturbing subject to take on.. While it may not be a smorgasbord of red herrings and red meat, Flame and Citron is often chilling.. As directed by Ole Christian Madsen, the thriller features well-choreographed shootouts and assassinations. But the script is too melodramatic and complicated for its own good.. With its...
12 (2007) Watch Full Movie
A powerful new film inspired by a powerful older one.. In the end the film is too much of a piece with its topic, intensely fascinating yet seriously flawed.. Forget it if you're hoping for some of the pleasures found in Sidney Lumet's 1957 film -- the gradual unraveling of a crime, the heroics of a single juror who persuades his fellow citizens to listen to reason.. Overwrought, overlong yet mesmerizing.....
Days of Glory (2006) Watch Streaming
A masterpiece of genre film-making, really worth to watch.. Bouchareb shows a real talent for action sequences.. Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. A movie can have a superb story, amazing cinematography, and mesmerizing writing as well as directing, but without the talent to deliver it all, it finds itself lacking. Great!!. It could be a better movie. But it...
Home of the Brave (2006) Watch Streaming
"Lore" is the sort of movie you'd already expect to rip your heart out, but that doesn't diminish the tragedy when it does arrive.. If there's a way to do justice to the story of American troops coming home from Iraq, Home of the Brave hasn't found it.. The young principals here, Malina and especially Rosendahl, are superb at conveying that premature hardening, their elastic minds pummelled by inelastic...
Paradise Now (2005) Full Streaming
[A] sensitive, occasionally didactic film.. Certainly what Said says will not come as a surprise to any Israeli. It's simply that they disagree. We may disagree, too, and yet watch the film with a fearsome fascination.. The director's two impulses -- to keep the audience hooked while illuminating the Palestinian plight -- never feel entirely compatible.. Asks the big questions and answers quite a...

1911 (2011) Play Movie
With "1911,'' art direction speaks louder than words.. A masterpiece of genre film-making, really worth to watch.. If the success of epic storytelling were determined by the sheer number of unnecessary on-screen name tags, 1911 would be a masterpiece. But the small matters of characterization, audience identification, and scene-making are entirely absent here.. Absolutely one of the greatest, most...

A masterpiece of genre film-making, really worth to watch.. The film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it pretends to do nothing else.
