“(OK) The huge director's cut has no waste. Even the interview of the man cleaning the sewers is great or the boys calling therir families in booth, the liberation of an accidental moving city in a disaster area; and, the excellence of many numbers knowing they are history:Cocker, Baez, the first one” read more
“(OK) De Antonio has the right interview for his camera, or the right archive image, tu establish a point of a not solved problem; its an almost acadmeic approahc but in an unamerican anti belicist left wing side....” read more

“(OK) Aldrich has no traumas in exposing the cops in all their misery and humanity. The racist one causes all tragedies and is condecorated, the homofobia and fobia to sexy body masochism is so big that makes Perry King takes his life, Durning is as moving as Geroge C Scott in The new centurions (its” read more
“(OK) Glimpses of best era of Sidney in musicals. Janet Legh is impressive in 'cleopatra look' number; Birdie is a sweet parody of Presley, Ann Margret is a pitty her stradom in the agonizing era of musicals...” read more
“(MU) Dominik learning from the genre and the masters and even has a Liotta as good as in 'Goodfellas'. Pitt is learning too, and pronounces the right words in cynical response to Obama´s speeches. Gandolfino as an alcoholic killer and the australian junkie, nice touches” read more
“(OK) Aldrich said this was one of his best, if not the bestm and thats arguably. Action is so tight and balanced, so well staged with characters strong on motifs (specially Lancaster) ; the political fiction plot of throwing a president to death in tha name of nation secrets, is credible, why not?” read more
“(MU) Even Von trier knows -his voice in off says it and I take it for granted- this is a lousy comedy. poor in gags, hard on forced feelings...” read more

“(Blu) Good all american, worth of O'Neill theatrical writing by Philip Yordan. Nice afroamerican cast, fatalist but open happy end; its ok” read more
“(MU) Takes some time to construct the knot of characters in domintios deception plot. Adjani thinks she is strong but fells for Bates as he succumbs to her, eberybofy is victim and victimizes the other in the quartet. The idle rich in paris and the apperances shouting they are just that...” read more
“(Blu) Frankenheimer surprises again and again, 3rd time I vibrate with this political thriller that appears as nuclear fiction and its so human that the love letters of martini lover Ava Gardner has the same importance of a secret militar base. Great cast, excellent results with less ambiton than Pr” read more
“(MU) So serene, mature, epic of a prerevolutionary momento in Angola, with the suffering and making of a hero. The reactions are slow, he inteligence is rare, but there it is a natural film about all those difficult things...” read more
“(Blu) Presley and Taurog and the Sinatra girl in their decadence. The race topic is as lousy as argument, the little girls subplot is horrible, musical numbers are lousy wih the exception of Elvis and the tax payers, thats a happy iroginal theme and choreography” read more
“(Blu) Deserves to be a cult film, maybe it already is. Gould is at his best as an accidental hero deceiving monster Plummer in Santa and woman disguise....” read more
“(Blu) Elegant Edwards, forcing wife Julie in an already disforced story of a spy in love defecting Russia (Sharif/Zhivago meets Mary Poppins)....” read more
“(Blu) First and lousy sounf Ford film. He hated the dialogue romantic scenes (directed by Lunsdem Hare) with Loy and McLaglen (laughable indeed).” read more
“(MU) The same characters you could see in a urban minimalist Jarmush film; here they are in prison and outdoors scape action, with tender coda, wise elipsis...” read more
“(OK) Somehow Ford indulges in his themes and style and topics so much that makes one of his longest films. Power is not so consistent with the hommages he receives, was a forced presence in Ford's world, probably because his irish roots...” read more
“(MU) Big suprprise from the World Cinema Project. A plot that could stanf for an actions stylized oriental film; and there it is, an not so quiet and contemplative, not so agile, ut fluent, drama of an horrendous killing not seen, and a revenge made aggainst fantastic and poetic interruptions, even ” read more
“(BLU) The wit, the humour, the charm, tha language of Ford's dearest Ireland in 3 stories. The first is humour and honour, great Purcell and Cusack. The second is a happy broth a Ireland humor, and even clicés in a one minute stop of a train, well many one minutes...The 3rd is a serioius drama with” read more
“(MU) Cornucpia if rich images of women deliruin of power and sex, in surrealist clues with live action and animation incrustations...I prefer "Attenberg"...” read more
“(BLU) May wasn't lucky in movies; as they say she was with Mike Nichols in the stand up comedy. Interestng characters but doesn'r add too much for gags or even romantic scenes...” read more
