Its also a thinly veiled commentary on the dangers and atrocities of capitalism, and a thumbs-up to Robin Hood justice, as long as that justice comes with a sidekick in a short skirt and a pair of heels.

Star Taylor Lautner seems like a very nice guy, and if I had pecs like his Id try to convince everyone I was an action hero too. But hes not.

However, if we know anything about i5050i going in, we know it is a movie about cancer. There is no time for this tediousness, because i5050i is not about pursuing a goal, it is what happens when a young persons life is put on hold in response to a dangerous and potentially fatal disease.

Ever since I first noticed her in the iScary Moviei series Ive thought she was funny, attractive without being Hollywood-pretty, and a decent actress. I wanted to like this movie for Anna. I really did.

Sometimes, when I actually do see them, Im pissed off at what I got. And other times, such as with iGood Morning Vietnami, Im pleasantly surprised. Thats rare for a movie. Especially one starring Robin Williams.

Not necessarily traipsing down a new path or making some great changes to the state of humanity. We wont all be doctors or actors or writers of great achievement, but we will all have to find our places in the big, brave world. If we are lucky, we have learned from our own Mr. Keatings.

Thats the first indication that Lurie is trying to differentiate his film from Peckinpahs, a film set in England with a better cast that was a bigger deal for its violent detail when it was made.

Yes, ISuper 8I has accurately drawn countless comparisons to Spielbergs classics from the 1970s and 1980s. Unfortunately, those were never my favorite movies, despite their quality, because story was often shortsighted for all the imaginative spectacle.

There isnt much tension because Cataleyas motivation is pure revenge. And revenge is kind of timeless. The only ticking clock is her quest to get to Don Luis before he dies of old age or someone else kills him.

Its the director of iAn American Werewolf in Londoni making a horrordark comedy movie with the very talented stars of IShawn of the Deadi and ILord of the Ringsi about Britains most notorious mass-murderers after Jack the Ripper. I was surprised I hadnt even heard of this movie until it got offered for review.

If you are a huge fan of the very campy 80s-ness of the first film, the sleek, well-produced new movie may not resonate with you. For everyone else, iFright Nighti should come across as a well-produced, well-acted, very much overlooked movie in 2011.

As the CEO of an unnamed investment bank, Jeremy Irons says much the same thing while he eats a steak after ordering the firing of most of his employees and the screwing of most of his customers.
