Black Mass (2015) Film-Streaming

Welcome back to the real world, Mr. Depp.. "Black Mass" is the sort of gangland film you would call run of the mill, if only it dashed faster.. [Depp] holds the screen as pure malevolence.. Black Mass isn't The Departed, and it's a bit too black and white. But movie mobster fans can relax, cause the movie doesn't need to have a hit taken out on it.. This is a good, solid, well-executed crime story. Nothing more, nothing less.. You forgive the zigs, zags, evasions and subplots for the hardcore po...

Suffragette (2015) Download Voll

There are many reasons to fault "Me and Earl and the Dying Girl," but it's sweet enough, and smart enough, to overcome every one of those reasons.. [Branagh] manages to de-toxify Disney's flagship fairy tale without overcorrecting away its prettiness, sincerity, or charm.. A rousing, relevant slice of feminist history.. There's an air of precocious genius around "Me and Earl and the Dying Girl," which despite its glum title is an inspired existential comedy.. The supporting cast, including Helen...

Just Before I Go (2014) Online-Streaming-

More than lives up to its name with ultra-campy performances, high-glucose direction (Daniel Barnz), laughable dialogue, cheesy effects and a back-lot simulation of a Manhattan street that wouldn't pass muster on an after-school special.. Lurches along a wobbly line between salacious comic nastiness and nauseating sentimentality.. It takes guts to transform heartthrob Alex Pettyfer into a disfigured hero for the bulk of Beastly, a contemporary retelling of Beauty and the Beast. It takes even mor...

Brooklyn (2015) Download Voll

The film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it pretends to do nothing else. It embraces a mystery and protects it, and it’s thrilling to behold.. Despite its familiar structure it's a thing of beauty, a delicate, tender period piece about nice people trying to do their best.. This movie is an epic action movie that I believe in a few years from now shall be more appreciated than it is today !!. A masterpiece of genre film-making, really worth to watch.. Music perfectly fits ...

Der seltsame Fall des Benjamin Button (2008) Streaming-

As bold and searingly imaginative as it is substantive.. Benjamin Button is little more than Gump by way of Dorian Gray. It plays too safe when it should be letting its freak flag fly.. Fincher's magic can't transform him from the coldly dispassionate misanthropist of Se7en, Fight Club, and Zodiac into a sentimental humanist, and it can't turn Brad Pitt into the kind of actor who can carry a movie like this.. The film, ambitious if flawed, also is lyrical and melancholy as it tells the story of ...

Black Hawk Down (2001) Online-Streaming-

Though Haggis has crafted an ambitious tale, it is way too complicated and convoluted.. A relentless immersion in combat strikingly realized but none too pleasurable to sit through.. "Third Person" aims to be singular, but winds up being hoist on its own conceit: Fiction may not be real, but we're still supposed to believe at least a word of it.. The muddled concept is forced to the point of breaking, the writing overheated and the story arc grimly perplexing.. It's all, I'm sorry to say, a melo...

A.I. - Künstliche Intelligenz (2001) Voll Streaming

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!!. Its heart is in the right place. But the intelligence behind the rest of the movie is, well, a little too artificial.. However you take it, the film works from an immensely challenging and rewarding text.. This movie is an epic action movie that I believe in a few years from now shall be more appreciated than it is toda...
