“Not if you were the last man on earth!” Plenty of guys have heard that line at some point in their lives, but it’s unlikely that Will Smith is one. His irresistible charm has been proved, above all, by his ability to attract audiences to bad movies like “Hitch” and “Wild Wild West,” as well as to better ones like “Ali” and “The Pursuit of Happyness.” In spite of its third-act collapse into obviousness and sentimentality, “I Am Legend” — in which Mr. Smith plays somebody with every reason to believe that he really is the last man on earth — is among the better ones.

2008’s reboot of The Day the Earth Stood Still makes a game effort at living up to the original film’s legacy, but stumbles over what has by now become an overly familiar alien-invasion premise.

In "Shutter Island," director Martin Scorsese has created a divinely dark and devious brain tease of a movie in the best noir tradition with its smarter than you'd think cops, their tougher than you'd imagine cases to crack and enough nods to the classic genre for an all-night parlor game.

The new Underworld instalment is being touted as the prequel the die-hard fans were demanding. That's super-secret Hollywood code for: “Kate Beckinsale refused to appear no matter how much money was offered!”

ewcomer Zeina Durra is one smart cookie. In one fell swoop — and in her directorial debut, no less — she’s created a stylish, layered drama that brings new perspective to the war on terror. With Imperialists, she centers her story on Asya (Elodie Bouchez), a visual artist living in a post-9/11 Manhattan. A child of several worlds, including a few in the middle east, Asya is constantly being made aware of a looming Big Brother, even as she pushes her art deeper into the realm of activism. While out partying one night — and meeting a Mexican PhD student named Javier — she learns that a close friend might have been the victim of rendition at the hands of the CIA.

Well if you saw the trailers you know the premise, girl in Rome decides to pick up coins from a fountain, which invokes the original owner when the coin was tossed to fall in love with her....

I have a hard time understanding how people can see this movie as anything more than mildly entertaining. I decided to watch it with high hopes as I am a big fan of the zombie genre and some reviewers compared it to Shaun of the dead and Zombieland. In my opinion however, there is no comparison, even when taking into consideration the far lower production costs of ZMD.

Mr. Bean's Holdiay was a movie I really enjoyed. Mr. Bean was back in true form, and delivered an unexpectedly funny movie. Part of Mr. Bean's humor is when something is about to happen, you can see it from a mile away, and you yell at the screen "look out Mr. Bean!" or "He left it on the counter! Oh No!" or what have you.

This was the choice of the kid and I was pleased to accompany him and made it possible for him. Thanks to him, I have discovered a lot of movies that alone I would never have watched.
