“127 hours” movie
Nowadays, at a time when directors molest us with technical fireworks, and writers write such spins that are so twisted that in the head turns, the movie “127 hours” is a gem. History of simple, painful and true like a biblical parable. Danny Boyle once again showed class.
What does this …

Dark Knight
You know, i normally like Batman movies but I’m not sure the film Dark Knight was all it was hyped-up to be.

How To Train Your Dragon 3D

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
Kate Hudson tries to tell us in this movie on “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days”. I am sure that even if she would like to get rid ofMatthew McConaughley, there are a lot of women who won’t mind have him around!
It seems that the on-screen …
