The Business of Movie Criticism - Importance of Mass Criticism
Movie critics have long been the voices that separate the public from horrible films. Today's critics are only part of the puzzle in deciphering if a film is good or not. It's in the power of the people.

Oscar-winner James Cameron insists that his new documentary, "The Lost Tomb of Jesus," is based on sound facts. But scholars and clergymen around the world are denouncing the film for contradicting major beliefs held by Christians.
Film Review - School Ties
The tag-line for Robert Mandel's film 'School Ties' reads - Just Because You're Accepted Doesn't Mean You Belong. It offers a thought-provoking look at bigotry and prejudice.
Film Review - Lakshya
Here at last is an unabashedly patriotic film that one can watch without wincing over the overt jingoism and foolhardy heroism.
Life is really beautiful!!!
Most of us live life very happily without any of the consideration of what life can be when it comes to save our beloved!

Movie Guide Reviews: Internet Movie Guide
Movie-watchers of all ages need look no further than the Internet Movie Guides to locate a vast array of information on past and present films.
Expelled the Movie – Ben Stein Exposes Flat World Academics
Ben Stein’s ‘Expelled’ could properly be called ‘Exposed the Movie’ because it is a nerve rattling jolt to academicians who are ready to bounce or ostracize anyone who so much as mentions or has a dream in the night about the theory of intelligent design.
Blade Runner Remains a Cult Classic
Blade Runner is a science fiction classic that asks the question: What does it mean to be human?
10000 BC Review
A mammoth flop of a film - great graphis though.
Film Review: The Reflecting Pool
If you believe in truth, then this is a must-see movie. It will disturb your equilibrium and make you think about some awful possibilities.
The Assassination of my Patience by Brad Pitt
Last evening, I rented the DVD of "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford." A numbing two hours and forty minutes later, my brain was in a fog (it wasn’t the wine); and one question kept reverberating in my brain – why?
Michael Moore’s Sicko – A Documentary of the "Sickening" Health Care System of America!
A Review of Michael Moore's Latest Film "Sicko" Which Will Hit the Box Offices June 29th, 2007.
Classic Movie Reviews : New York, New York
‘New York, New York’ is probably one of the most often recorded popular songs of all time. But no matter how many versions of ‘New York, New York’ you have listened to, you haven’t experienced it until you have watched Lisa Minnelli perform it in the eponymous movie.
Classic Movie Reviews: The Philadelphia Story
Back in the 1940s and1950s, star power was so formidable that most movies sold almost solely on the basis of who was portraying the lead roles. The Philadelphia Story had star power in abundance; Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn and James Stewart.
Terminator 1, 2, 3 — Movie Review
Though the main plot is easily understood, all three movies contain a strong underlying common theme that is hard to miss for a thinking viewer.
Andrei Tarkovsky's Mirror - a Landmark in World Cinema
Mirror (Zerkalo) was made in 1974 and is the perfect illustration of Andrei Tarkovsky's genius as a director. Mirror provides the viewer with vivid images of unbelievable power and beauty and is an evocation of childhood which is without equal in cinema.
Strange Brew: Keeping Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Alive
The movie Strange Brew is a delightful comedy about Bob and Doug MacKenzie, the two famous Canadian Brothers that popularized Canada's beer drinking culture. What many fans don't realize, The movie was loosely based on the Shakespeare play, Hamlet, and that Bob and Doug were loosely based on the characters Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
Movie Review: "Capote" Is Beyond Definition
Moviegoers deciding to see "Capote" with the notion that they will walk away with more of an understanding of the megalomaniacal, self-destructive author will be disappointed.
Film Review of The Passion of The Christ
This review is somewhat in the vein of the movie reviews found at "The Lazy Movie Critic" who works 60 hours a week. I, too, work 60 hours a week but it is in a non-paying capacity reading and writing about: books, movies, ideas, life, etc...
Scott Finch Releases Gods and Freaks
Scott Finch releases an ambitious blues-rock two CD set with videos
Tony Adamo is "Up In It" With A Jazz-Pop Groove
Jazz-Pop Vocalist Tony Adamo releases 4 song EP in anticipation of new album in the fall. Tony Adamo is well on his way to becoming a star, I have no doubt about that.
Omar Rock's The House on "Boogie Man"
Blues Artist Omar Dykes Releases Strong Blues-Rock CD. I heard about Omar and The Howlers when they first arrived on the blues-rock scene many years ago.
AKC: Don’t Get Star-Struck By Dogs In Movies
In anticipation of the family adventure comedy, "Good Boy!" being released this month by MGM Pictures and Jim Henson Pictures, the American Kennel Club is making an effort to remind moviegoers about the importance of making careful, informed decisions when considering adding a dog to their home.
Movie Prompting Demand for Clown Fish
Finding Nemo, an animated movie about a search for a lost clown fish that recently began playing in theaters, is causing a dramatic increase in demand - especially among children - for pet clown fish.
The Matrix Reloaded
Let's admit it. This sequel to the smash-hit Matrix - the second of what producers Warner Brothers now airily claim was the trilogy envisaged all along - is not as good as the original. It hasn't got that enigmatic feel, and the recondite philosophy of the Matrix, once so beautiful and strange, is now a tiny bit camp.
Movie Review: Shaolin soccer will be this summer's sleeper hit
The year 2003 will be remembered as the Year of the Matrix when all is said and done, but eSports Sinista1 promises that "Shaolin Soccer" will be the sleeper hit of this year's blockbusters.
The Magdalene Sisters
This extraordinary film is celluloid incendiarism, rabble-rousing cinema with a delirious, delicious edge of black comedy which I estimate to be about 90-95% intentional. Director Peter Mullan's debut feature Orphans had the same explosive seriocomic combination. Then, as now, he's putting out the fire of emotional pain with the gasoline of satire and scorn.
Movie Review: Conjuction -- The Junction Boys didn't function
Did everyone see movie, "The Junction Boys," on ESPN? I thought it was better than the Bobby Knight movie, but fell way short of being a classic sports movie.
Media: Film Review -- "Ali"
A brief review of the Michael Mann film "Ali" starring Will Smith, which is based on the life and times of Muhammad Ali.
