If you think of Canadian films as the movie equivalent of cucumber sandwiches and chamomile tea, hold tight.. A strong film based on a weak story.. Filled with striking images and the ghosts of lives lived in hardship and war, "Incendies" is tough but impactful.. A deeply resonant literary quality gives what might otherwise seem like a dubious series of coincidences a profound sense of plausibility.....
Lions for Lambs (2007) Watch Streaming
If you enjoy the tense claustrophobia of submarine thrillers, K-19 fills the bill.. This is grand cinema.. . What they cut from the novel ... doesn't cause as many problems as what they add, which is often too bizarre or too whimsical for a story about death.. The movie's centrepiece is as close to tour-de-force suspense filmmaking as you'll see anywhere this summer.. There's something hollow beneath...
Beyond Borders (2003) Download Full
Pay attention, guess where it's going, and find yourself surprised.. Despite all its grisly sights, the most disturbing thing about Beyond Borders is the magnitude of its miscalculation. In this movie, the world's a stage for ill-fated romance, and famine and war aren't much more than props.. To imagine that there are those who would scoff at the idea that fashion cares! As Beyond Borders demonstrates...
Sahara (2005) Download Full
This one has everything: stereotyped characters, shaky camera work, absurdly inappropriate pop songs on the soundtrack, a confused tone, misplaced zaniness and a nonsensical story.. A mediocrity wrapped inside a banality, toasted in a nice, fresh cliche.. . McConaughey's no Harrison Ford. And no one cracks the whip of originality.. . Productions this guiltlessly corny need real personalities to sell...
The Hurt Locker (2008) Watch Full Movie
The movie, engrossing as it is intentionally horrifying, is capped by a last-minute revelation that brings the story to a haunting, powerful close.. Rage has no expiration date in Incendies, director Denis Villeneuve's gripping, era-jumping drama about a family melded to its war-torn past.. Bigelow's film combines an expert management of tension with a sensitive and journalistic attention to detail:...
Alexander (2004) Download Full
If you think of Canadian films as the movie equivalent of cucumber sandwiches and chamomile tea, hold tight.. Rage has no expiration date in Incendies, director Denis Villeneuve's gripping, era-jumping drama about a family melded to its war-torn past.. The question isn't how do you live with the buzz of looming death; it's how do you live without it? No answers are offered, or even suggested.. Though...

The Edge of Love (2008) Play Movie
Apted and Stoppard have bitten off too much as they attempt to juggle an espionage plot and parallel past/present romances.. Jericho and Hester spend so much time on investigative idylls in the damp spring countryside that spy work starts to seem like a military garden party.. Apted and his crew pull out all the stops to craft a thriller out of material that looks better on paper than it does on film.....
Tears of the Sun (2003) Download Full
Stands as one more bit of throwback entertainment that's better than I expected -- and not much more.. The movie might have gotten a dramatic boost from its topical theme, indirect as it is. Unfortunately, it's not one-tenth as interesting as what you can see at home during a nightly cable surf as U.S. war policy is debated.. The film is a strictly no-bull proposition.. A mediocrity wrapped inside...
Enigma (2001) Full Streaming
If the movie's plot is a rare combination of impenetrable and inconsequential, it has been laid out compellingly by director Michael Apted.. Pay attention, guess where it's going, and find yourself surprised.. A complicated and intelligent British film with a curious roster of off-screen talent.. Complex, sinuously plotted and, somehow, off-puttingly cold.. It merely plods, occasionally bogging down...
A Very Long Engagement (2004) Full Movie Streaming
. A salute is in order for Bigelow, a director who knows how to navigate macho terrain without losing her human compass.. What could have been a movie packed with historical significance and nail-gnawing underwater tension ends up little more than a lumbering public-service announcement for the human spirit.. Jeunet's movie is a game of great singles inside an overextended ballgame.. Tautou, as always,...
The Wind Rises (2013) Full Movie Streaming
. Stands as one more bit of throwback entertainment that's better than I expected -- and not much more.. This movie should have been called Crocodile Tears of the Sun.. McConaughey and his co-stars make the case that fun, however fleeting, is still fun.. The movie's a gorgeous, problematic anomaly in an illustrious career-a case of rapturous artistic blindness.. Whatever it lacks in substance it makes...
