Forelsket i New York (2014) Fuld Film Streaming

Andrew Lloyd Webber's kitschy theatrical spectacle is now a kitschy theatrical movie, a mix of melodrama, horror, romance, mystery and melody heaped together into a cinematic smorgasbord, one heavy in starch.. The trouble with this movie -- aside from its lack of visual wonder and musical shape -- is that you don't trust its priorities.. The movie version of Lloyd Webber's swooning 1986 horror operetta has been directed, by Joel Schumacher, as if Schumacher were the world's hardest-working uphol...

The Diary of a Teenage Girl (2015) Se Fuld Film

Working from Phoebe Gloeckner's 2002 graphic novel/memoir, Heller gets the shabby glamour and bleached sunshine of '70s San Francisco just right, coloring several scenes with vivid blooms of animation.. Music perfectly fits with the movie, the story can't tear myself away from the screen for hours. Really GREAT movie!!. Big summer action movies can be thrilling, but if you really want to feel your heart pounding out of your chest, try being a 15-year-old girl for 101 minutes.. Awesome as directo...

Mulholland Drive (2001) Fuld Streaming

This is from a first time director, so you see somebody who's just got a great career ahead of him.. Lynch challenges our expectations of narrative and credibility by luxuriating in something else -- the unexplained, the m...

The Walk (2015) Spille Streaming

The Walk is a visionary high-wire act.. It's when the walk portion of The Walk arrives that this unevenly scripted, fact-based thriller achieves its full potential.. It's two-thirds of a great film but the slow start and unremarkable first hour hold it back. Still, for those who buy into the precept that "good things are worth waiting for," The Walk unquestionably delivers.. The walk itself is the film's central, and only, real achievement, but it's a doozy.. I'd love to say that I was delighted...
