Review of Dante's Peak (1997)

By Ripö M (410) on 05 Oct 2009

Solid, conventional, non-threatening night at the movies with big effects and some obligatory human drama. Nothing earth-shattering but decent…

Review of Flight of the Red Balloon (2007)

By Ripö M (410) on 27 Sep 2009

Es una extraÃ±a pelÃcula, que sin ser mala, pretende ser un homenaje a El globo rojo de 1956, sin embargo, lo que mÃ¡s destaca es la…

Review of Lions for Lambs (2007)

By Ripö M (410) on 16 Sep 2009

A dynamic, timely powder-keg of a topic, presented as a droning talking-head seminar. Would have been better as a CNN town hall special…

Review of Fitzcarraldo (1982)

By Ripö M (410) on 12 Sep 2009

I couldn't finish this moon for the misbegotten because the lead actor freaked me out. As its director put it, a conquistador of the useless…

Review of The Avengers (1998)

By Ripö M (410) on 11 Sep 2009

Good-looking but empty exercise in style ends up cheesy and forgettable. And no one can match Diana Rigg as Emma Peel (apologies to my girl Uma)…

Review of House of Sand and Fog (2003)

By Ripö M (410) on 07 Sep 2009

Supremely moving, intense, almost emotionally unbearable tragedy. It all comes down to bad choices, timing and the wrong thing at the wrong time…

Zooey played the most interesting character in this film, she almost made it worth watching…

Review of Topsy-Turvy (1999)

By Ripö M (410) on 28 Aug 2009

A valentine to the genesis of art and the creative process. Every facet of this production is absolutely in love with the wonders of the theatre…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Ripö M (410) on 27 Aug 2009

Very condensed, sometimes overacted but overall durable and respectable mounting of the tragedy…

Review of Another Country (1984)

By Ripö M (410) on 18 Aug 2009

Typical meditation on British class repression has atypical hint of dark sexual deviation. Rupert Everett and Colin Firth's smashing breakthrough…

Review of Under the Sand (2001)

By Ripö M (410) on 13 Aug 2009

An interesting premise treated with entirely too much taste and polish. I guess my problem is nothing surprised me in the film…

Review of The Europeans (1979)

By Ripö M (410) on 12 Aug 2009

Visually colourful but dramatically inert mounting of Henry James novel has all of the right words but none of its meaning. Like a high school play…
