"Danny Boyle’s new crowd-pleasing film Slumdog Millionaire was originally intended to be shot entirely in English, but apparently due to the preferences of a casting director, about a third of the movie is in Hindi. While this fraction may not be enough to call it a foreign-language film, it could have been enough to turn off subtitle-fearing audiences were the movie not so otherwise accessible due to its feel-good, “Hollywood-style” story involving star-crossed romance, destiny and an ultimate “love conquers all” message. Also, the movie breaks free from one off-putting foreign film tradition by following Man on Fire, Night Watch and TV’s Heroes into the realm of non-traditional subtitling. Slumdog received a standing ovation at the Toronto Film Festival, where it won the People’s Choice Awa "

"After watching the new teaser for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, I personally had no comment. Having stopped reading the series somewhere in the center of the previous book, I didn’t feel I had any authority on the matter. The only thing I thought while watching the clip was that it seemed more like one of those annoying prequels that comes after a series to humanize that series’ villain with an origin story (y’know, like the Star Wars prequels and Young Hott Hannibal (wait, that’s not what it was titled?). And until I read an interesting trailer analysis on MTV Movies Blog this morning, I thought that couldn’t actually be the case. Actually, MTV’s look at the teaser began last night with a frame by frame analysis, in which Sh "

"The only, and I mean THE ONLY, reason this didn't garner a "disliked" rating here in my review is because the cinematography is absolutely wonderful, but that's as far as my kudos extend. Everything else about this stinker reeks of franchise profiteering, and the script (supplied by none other than Thomas Harris, creator of the novels the films are based on) is an abysmal failure. Nothing will ruin the mystique of villainous characters more than probing into their sordid backgrounds, and I always believed that Hannibal's eeriness was in his dichotomous behavior. In "Silence of the Lambs", we are told chilling tales of his methodical psyche while dispatching victims, and when we meet him for the first time, he is calm and collected but feral, much like a caged lion. In "Red Dragon", we see him as one of society's elite members, and who could ever imagine this man capable of the horrors he commits? Here, we get none of these traits, and I believe this film was made strictly for the ... "

"Vile and disturbing. Movies are typically considered "entertainment." I feel a great deal of concern for anyone who is entertained by a story such as this. "

"Villains are oftentimes more interesting than heroes. So, it isn’t surprising when a villain becomes popular enough to warrant his or her own comic/movie/book/etc. The latest, according to IESB, will be Venom, one of the three villains featured in the horrible superhero sequel Spider-Man 3. For Marvel Comics readers, this isn’t that shocking. Venom received his own comic titles long ago, and disappointingly turned semi-good-guy vigilante. But will the movie spin-off be the same kind of water-down? If we look at the two ways a villain spin-off typically goes, it’s probable. First, there’s the villain origin piece, which includes movies like Hannibal Rising, The Scorpion King, Wicked, the upcoming

"This is the best movie ever about Hannibal Lecter, and people that like being scared to the very core of their being ought to not waste any more time but get right out to their local video seller/renter and grab a few copies of this up! Spoiler Alert: Hannibal Rising is about this very angry man named Hannibal Lecter who has a passion for murder and an equal passion for eating. But whereas most of us can relate so far...be forwarned that this gentleman likes eating PEOPLE! Yikes. I better watch my step reviewing this one or he may come after me! Note to Hannibal Lecter: Please don't come after me. I'm probably way too sour for your palate. Disclaimer: I haven't seen all of the movies in the Hannibal Lecter series, but I can be sure that this one is the best! It will totally creep you out in ways that the first one (Hannibal) did not. I would still like to see the one with Jodie Foster in it too. I don't believe this movie is good for children under 7, but it does ha ... "

"The other day, I was listening to the TV in the other room and caught a snippet that some show on SportsCenter was being brought to me by the Hannibal Rising Unrated Two-Disc Special Edition. This puzzled me for a silly reason: why in the world would a suspense/horror movie be sponsoring a sports show? That was a first to me. Usually, sports shows are endorsed by action-let's-blow-stuff-up -every-other-scene movies. Or sports movies...but that's too obvious. The next thing I thought was, "How did this movie get a two-disc special edition?" Then I remembered that even the crappiest movies nowadays have two-disc "special" editions, even if they only have one deleted scene. The rest of the second disc is then loaded with crap like "What the Actors Ate for Breakfast On the Third Day of the Shoot" or "Guess How Many Extras Died in the Making of the Earthquake Scene?" Stuff like that. But that is a different story. Like I said, I ... "
