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...

The Boxtrolls (2014) Online Streaming

There are many more delighted 'Ewwws' than too-easy 'Awws' in this charming, if a tad cynical, feature from the creators of Coraline and ParaNorman.. It's a world that runs in a parallel universe akin to that of Charles Dickens, with creatively named characters involved in seemingly outlandish adventures in a Victorian-era city where a moral or two plays out in the end.. Like one of its wondrously designed steampunky contraptions, "The Boxtrolls" is a marvelous thing to behold, and watch spin, e...

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009) Play Movie

Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. I saw Revenge of the Fallen at Imax, which is probably why I managed to stay awake in what for me was the world's most boring movie.. Music perfectly fits with the movie, the story can't tear myself away from the screen for hours. Really GREAT movie!!. Though battles are Transformers' raison d'etre, before it's over, Revenge will collapse under the weight of far too many of them.. A movie can have a superb story, amazing ...

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...

Insurgent (2015) Full Streaming

Taken for what it is, Insurgent is a vast improvement over the franchise's first installment, mostly thanks to expansion in two arenas: budget and scope.. Unlike Divergent, which required pages of premise-establishing exposition, Insurgent is more purely action-centric, as the hunters hunt and the hunted flee through the trees, hopping freight trains, trying to elude capture.. The action sequences are well done, some of the visuals are spectacular, and at it's heart Insurgent is wrestling with s...

Pacific Rim (2013) Watch Streaming

If you thought there was only so much to be done with ice and snow as visual fields, think again along the lines of prismatic crystals, epic storms and fantastical structures built on water's gift for freezing itself into see-through art.. I really like this movie. thank you. After a long cycle of action movies in which the protagonists spend most of their downtime introspecting about their heroic obligations, Pacific Rim is something different: a heart-warming team-building exercise.. Most impo...
