True Grit (2010) Online Streaming

The tense verbal comedy of Mattie's early negotiation with a Fort Smith merchant should win you over to this movie's high linguistic wit.. If there's one thing I don't need in my Christmas stocking this year, it's a sorry, lumbering and unasked-for remake of the 1969 sagebrush saga True Grit.. The movie feels uncertain as to its own tones and intentions.. It has little narrative interest and requires that the director latch onto a very specific airy tone of whimsy, lest the whole souffle collaps...

Alexander (2004) Online Streaming

A lunk-headed train wreck that looks like a tag sale in a 323 B.C. supermarket in old Peking.. Farrell plays all this as if he means it, but he seems slight in the role and without great physical presence.. At a reported cost of $155 million, Alexander qualifies as a super-spectacle in every respect but one -- namely in its neurotic, confused and sexually ambidextrous hero.. This is Stone's weakest movie of the past 20 years, and it's unlikely to make any kind of blip.. It's just a wild, gloriou...

Predators (2010) Watch Full Movie

. The Kings of Summer is the cinematic equivalent of an Arctic-cold popsicle on a Sahara-hot day. Refreshing and satisfying but not overly sentimental, the film taps into the frustrations of adolescence with warmth and wit.. Vogt-Roberts makes the scenery look great, but doesn't call the plays that could make the movie score. Scenes don't develop, characters don't evolve except in indie-movie-cute ways.. The excellent performances by the cast are also what raise this movie well above your ordina...

Big Fish (2003) Full Movie Streaming

Overall, the film feels like it issues from a place Burton doesn't inhabit.. A compelling look at the relationships between fathers and sons, and the child coming to terms with the parent's mortality.. Mostly confined to bed throughout the film, Finney pulls us to him with a flawless combination of theatrical skill and movie-star radiance.. A bountiful pleasure.. Burton, who has clung to the trappings of precocious genius well into his 40s, demonstrates a new emotional maturity.. Burton shows th...

Batman Begins (2005) Online Streaming

I don't know if I've ever seen a revenge fantasy so willfully messed up, sometimes offensively so, that still manages to be worthwhile for whole sections of its 2 1/2 hours. The opening is as good a sequence as Tarantino has ever created.. Landa is such a wily and despicable concoction that, in movie terms, he's almost impossible not to like. And therein lies part of my problem with this movie.. Its biggest flaw, though, for those who care about such things, may be its moral attitude. That might...

Home (2015) Play Movie

[A] lousy, ugly-looking, intensely illogical movie.. The combination of Home's layered message, fun score, and clever comedy make it a colorful choice for moviegoers of any age.. The film moves quickly and keeps the jokes coming, which only means that "Home" would rather keep young viewers occupied than give them something to think about.. A charming concoction with positive messages for younger children about conquering fears, understanding outsiders and knowing yourself.. It works moderately w...

Hugo (2011) Play Movie

For all the wizardry on display, Hugo often feels like a film about magic instead of a magical film.... A state-of-the-art affair, an epic adaptation of Selznick's pretty-epic-itself tome, full of dazzling visuals and rapturous tributes to Melies and the magic of movies.. Hugo is a mixed bag but one well worth rummaging through.. Hugo is pure movie magic.. One of the most magical viewing experiences of the decade so far.. Movie magic hangs in the air of Martin Scorsese's Hugo, much like the stea...

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009) Watch Streaming

The longer the movie goes, the more its 133 minutes prove wearing.. Performances are solid throughout, with the actors managing to straight-face their way through some truly inane dialogue.. It plays like a salvage job, with all the attendant compromises. Though the film is laden with backstory and exposition, not much actually happens onscreen.. Scorsese's film is a richly illustrated lesson in cinema history and the best argument for 3-D since James Cameron's Avatar.. When it's all done we're ...

Cast Away (2000) Watch Streaming

As a FedEx troubleshooter who survives a plane crash, Hanks performs a bravura solo spin.. The scenes of Hanks' complete isolation on the island, where barely a sound is heard for minutes at a time, are the best thing about Cast Away.. All these characters with their odd powers are inherently absurd and they throw a barrel of wrenches into the machinery of a coherent narrative.. . It sucks that this choppily edited film appears rushed and incoherent in ways that cheat the story of its human reso...

A Knight's Tale (2001) Play Streaming

You might find yourself smiling and laughing all the way through it.. A Knight's Tale should be ridiculous, and it is: ridiculously entertaining.. It will rock you -- straight to sleep.. May please aficionados of oldies stations and Xtreme sports but few others.. Predictable and repetitive.. . Strip away its 14th Century trappings and A Knight's Tale is just a Middle Ages Rocky that spares no cliche in its unduly long, 2 1/4 hours.. Instead of pulling young audiences imaginatively back into the ...

A Walk in the Woods (2015) Download Full

It's not a difficult picture to watch. All you want from A Walk in the Woods, honestly, is a chance to enjoy a couple of veteran actors. But the book's comic tone hasn't found a comfortable equivalent for the screen.. This is the most technically amazing motion picture to have arrived on screens in many years.. Nolte has three Oscar acting nominations to his credit, Redford has one; In A Walk in the Woods they show what true cinematic chemistry is all about without appearing to be acting at all....

A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) Download Full

This transcendent fable carries a real sting in its tail. Ang Lee has made a bold and wondrous movie, one of his best.. The most philosophical film in Kubrick's canon, the most intelligent in Spielberg's, and quite possibly the film with the most contemporary relevance that either one has made since Kubrick released Dr. Strangelove in 1964.. Everything looks beautiful in Life of Pi.. Claudio Miranda's luminous camera, set to Mychael Danna's intoxicating score, captures all manner of wild delight...

Bridge to Terabithia (2007) Download Movie

This screen adaptation of Katherine Paterson's now-classic novel for young readers tells its story with agreeable simplicity in between computer-generated monsters.. This is Csupo's feature directorial debut, but as creator, producer, and writer of Rugrats and The Wild Thornberrys, among several other series, he's had a long career in animation, and he handles the CGI setpieces masterfully.. The movie is bracing for its bile but ultimately more frustrating than funny.. Terabithia has buckets of ...

King Kong (2005) Full Movie Streaming

Men sporting bronzer and spewing cliches in British accents while battling evil and dealing with cheesy special effects.. At three hours, Jackson's Kong is too bloated and digressive to match the pure adrenaline of the first film, perhaps the finest B-movie ever made.. [A] cacophonous, frivolous adaptation of Ubisoft's Arabian Nights-themed video-game series.. Silly, pointless and obscenely overproduced.. Kong has heart, and he's willing to show it in a movie made with wit, excitement and moment...

Snow White and the Huntsman (2012) Watch Streaming

What dooms Snow White and the Huntsman is ultimately not how over the top it is, but how dull it is.. Somewhat like Forrest Gump on a high colonic.. It's gentle and pleasing and I appreciated the mixture of oddness, whimsy and emotion that informs Burton's search for the place where truth and fiction meet.. There will be lots of versions of Theron's evil queen running around West Hollywood this Halloween; it's a performance that's one part Tilda Swinton to 30 parts Faye Dunaway, the sort of over...

Seeking a Friend for the End of the World (2012) Watch Streaming

Director Robert Zemeckis once again harnesses a new technology to an engaging fable in this digitally animated adaptation of Chris Van Allsburg's holiday tale.. Not only do Van Allsburg's darkly magical illustrations come to glorious life in the film; so, too, do his familiar words.. While there are some amusing moments involving the film's stellar cast of second bananas, the "quirky" and utterly artificial love story at its center makes Armageddon feel like the preferable option.. One of the ye...

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) Full Movie Streaming

It's hard to pinpoint the cause of the problem, but Walter's story never engages.. Stiller's attempt to braid together introspection and humor kept me engaged and curious, even when I wasn't quite sure what he was setting out to do.. Sometimes you see failed films and think, well, they tried for this or that but couldn't pull it off. After seeing Ben Stiller's version of the venerable James Thurber story, I don't know what the film was trying for.. "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" is star/direc...

Kingdom of Heaven (2005) Play Streaming

As Balian and his people withstand the might of Saladin's fiery projectiles, siege towers and the usual computer-generated swarm of soldiers, it's hard not to think we're really watching The Lord of the Rings IV: Legolas Defends Jerusalem.. The religious sentiment accumulates into a tower of politically correct Jell-O.. Dramatically, the problem is it's a lot easier to root for someone battling tigers and gladiators than it is to cheer on a guy wondering about the meaning of life. This is why Wa...
