A subtle but very satisfying horror
Wow, this really worked for me. The horror elements are subtle and tasteful, the evolving mystery is enticing and the element of grief is mixed in well. But mostly, I was quite stunned with the lead actress, who totally nails it and makes everything work beautifully.Die Brucke - Bernhard Wicki (1959)

a sad warstory, told well
After all these years, this is still a worthwhile movie, effectively painting contrast between the boys in their daily life and the pointless and violent war they end up in. Some remarkable cinematography for it's age, too.hente

Armed conflict can infect us all
I saw this movie half a century ago and it is still impressive even without the usual mass scenes and shoot-outs. Make sure you watch the original version by director Wicki and not the later re-make with the same title.Im Westen Nichts Neues
Follows a few young German boys into the first worldwar trench hell against France

An impressive and heavy warflick that ought to have hit harder
A film that impressive in many ways: The raw depiction of war, the insanity of trench wars in particular and the cinematography. But somehow it didn't fully manage to transfer the deep sense of fear or dread like some other war movie have. Perhaps I didn't really bond with the characters.The Dead Center

An unpleasant surprise
Morgue-scenes, already my weakspot! But this movies doesn't solely rely on their creepy atmosphere. It has an intelligent, well constructed uncanny atmosphere throughout, and I love the natural acting and believable hospital atmosphere that was created. It really elevates the story.The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

This is more like it
Yes. Less hobbit whining and dwarf singing. More intense combat, both on a massive scale as one on one close encounters. All this intense and beautiful action and hardship finally made me care about the creatures in this movie.Ex Machina

Clever and good looking scifi
A very stylish, smart and engrossing scifi flick with some nice twists to boot.Enter the Void
Smalltime drug dealer in Tokyo experiences after death experience and reincarnation... while on drugs

What a trip
I am assuming this is about the closest you can get to tripping out (or dying) in beautiful Tokyo without doing any drugs. The camera work, images an music are really extraordinarily done and it treats the 'expected' after-death events in a sort of believable way. Very long though.The Creator

Familiar elements blended into something exciting and new
A lot of elements and concept are quite familiar. It reminded me of Elysium for example, both in style, looks and story. But it manages to combine it's sources of inspiration into a new, exciting story, with gorgeous visuals, great performances and it even touched me emotionally.Zero Dark Thirty
The hunt for UBL

ladies and gentlemen, she got him
Stylish and engrossing hunt for Usama.. which is quite an achievement since it apparently involved so much waiting and utter lack of progress. The movie ends with a nail biting assault on the man.When Evil Lurks
Two farmers encounter a 'rotten' demonic curse, and must race to stop if from spreading

The best possession movie I know
The macabre folklore, while slightly weird, gave this a unique atmosphere. The characters are interesting and well acted, and it has some brilliant gut-punch horrorscenes. And finally, it has a constant high tension drive, making it feeling almost like an action movie.Movies found: 1046 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 46 - 55
