Ellen Page is a revelation as this character. It is so well written to begin with, but she turns this sarcastic but earnest character …

Cloverfield through advertising it brought up a lot of wonder of what the hell the film was about. Watching the film was quite hard, because of the use of one camera its hard to fit in cuts, they did a great job of this putting in cuts whenever falling …

Sidney Lumet is perhaps one of the most underrated american directors in my opinion with great films like 12 Angry Men, Serpico and Long Day’s Journey Into Night on his account. Dog Day Afternoon shows Al Pacino in one of his major roles as a bank robber, and also …
