     (1961)      ""Cute and cuddly" pretty much sums up this canine caper - once you get past the idea of a lady looking to make a coat out of dalmatian puppies." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (2006)      "13 Tzameti does suffer from a weak and even lazy conclusion, but that doesn't stop 90 minutes that come before it. This truly is deserving of being unforgettable." [movie review]      Calgary Movies   
  
90/100
     (2001)      "One of the most daring and exciting television series I’ve ever seen." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (2002)      "I've been curious about "the Eminem movie" for months. And while I have gotten the chance to see 8 Mile, little of my pondering has been quenched; Eminem remains an enigma." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
74/100
     (2001)      "Contrived or not, anything that stirs raw emotions as Aberdeen does is worth a viewing." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
76/100
     (2001)      "History is handled respectfully, acknowledging what happened and giving victims an honest and predominantly objective voice on one of the most degrading pages in the book of humankind." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (2009)      "Adventureland finds much of its comedy in its often brutal honesty." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
3.5/5
     (2002)      "Rather than ignore our new neighbors, it’s time we take the sweet loaf and jelly mold next door...and listen to what’s going on through a different set of eyes. It’s films like "Afghan Stories" that will hopefully begin to act as an educational icebreaker" [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
     (1974)      "Scorsese shows his range as a filmmaker and proves what makes him so good: he's a director with an eye for fancy camera work but a heart for his characters and the journeys they take." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (1979)      "Scott can still get me to jump by putting me almost on edge and then throwing me overboard with a small but loud hiss or from something that leaps out of the darkness." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (2003)      "Love can be a good thing. It can just as easily be horrible. David Gordon Green's poetic All the Real Girls captures both senses of love - and beautifully to boot." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (2000)      "...an honest and touching look at many big themes such as family, friendship and fandom." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (2003)      "A quirky crowd-pleaser that builds off of the strength of strong characters to draw its audience in." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
76/100
     (2001)      "A beautiful film that covers the full spectrum of emotions. For the most part, it's convincing and poignant." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (2008)      "Several anti-war films have come along in the past couple of years calling out the war in Iraq. They've covered various conspiracies, big personalities and the frontlines. But, perhaps, none have been as human as Neil Abramson's American Son." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (2009)      "Several anti-war films have come along in the past couple of years calling out the war in Iraq. They've covered various conspiracies, big personalities and the frontlines. But, perhaps, none have been as human as Neil Abramson's American Son." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
92/100
     (1979)      "A paradox of beauty and horror." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (1997)      "Nobody's perfect, but this movie's pretty darned close in its subtle telling of a Godly man from the south on his quest for conviction." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (1970)      "The Aristocats is largely an up-scale cat version of 101 Dalmatians minus the deliciously dastardly villain." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (2008)      "Part The Graduate, part Fitzcarraldo, The Art of Travel is a tribute to living on the road less traveled. Filmed entirely on location, it offers a more rounded portrayal of culture outside of the standard Hollywood clichés" [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (2003)      "Makhmalbaf wants to reflect what's happening in Afghanistan today. To that end this is a timely piece. Whether or not it remains as such as the years go by will only be known as history rolls itself out." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
76/100
     (2000)      "An informative and entertaining look into a side of American music history that is overlooked outside of Bob Dylan." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
75/100
     (1968)      "Although the transfer is for the most part solid, there are some murky spots where the colours don’t look as clean as they should." [dvd review]      Apollo Guide   
  
75/100
     (1968)      "Buoyed by a strong cast and carried by an interesting mix of genre sensibilities, it’s a film that may not have much lasting value but is fun nonetheless." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
75/100
     (2002)      "One of the best entrants in the fast-growing urban comedy genre." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (2005)      "Boisvert continues to develop as a filmmaker, building off his knack for tracking genuine human emotion - good and bad - and digging beyond where we feel comfortable and safe." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
89/100
     (1999)      "Goes beyond the typical slapstick of Saturday morning cartoons and deals with real issues of high school students." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
86/100
     (2000)      "If the premise of Batman Beyond was originally a gimmick, it has become one that is equally innovative and carefully crafted." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
68/100
     (1966)      "While the film is far from perfect, it’s meant to be that way." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (1988)      "With its sophisticated yet accessible blend of comedy and the macabre, I knew Beetlejuice was likely to be one of those films I would never tire of. But a classic? It's been 20 years. I'm willing to throw that blue ribbon on it." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
73/100
     (2001)      "Gets away with its shortfalls almost solely on the basis of its cinematography." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (1979)      "Sellers uses simple looks and gestures to bring light to some very serious situations. At many points it's like he's in a trance, truly embodying Chance." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
71/100
     (1952)      "Doesn’t completely hold up a half century after its release, but it is a nostalgic bit of innocent humour." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
71/100
     (1952)      "Has a rather disappointing DVD spin." [dvd review]      Apollo Guide

     (2007)      "I don't know how long The Colbert Report can continue to feel fresh and entertaining, but I'm guessing as long as there's news to be made, it'll be there to poke fun at it." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
3/5
     (2004)      "Sets an example for future religious films. It's able to get its point and purpose across in a way that's both entertaining and doesn't alienate the broader audience." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (1985)      "Better Off Dead's charm stems from its imagination and attitude." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
88/100
     (1986)      "While it doesn't rely on style quite as much as [Woo's] later films, it has a complex plot, hundreds of flying bullets and buckets of flowing blood." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
88/100
     (1987)      "A showcase for John Woo’s tremendous skill both as a storyteller and as a composer of violent masterpieces." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (1992)      "The show's super-sized third season tackles such themes as eating disorders, gambling addiction, car accidents, world travel, birth, death and first record contracts. And that's not even mentioning the revolving door of several relationships." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
61/100
     (1987)      "Murphy still has energy and charisma to spare and raises the performances of the more subdued actors that surround him." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (2004)      "Much like basking in front of your own image, Spacey's Beyond the Sea is a vanity project, albeit one with some interesting layers surrounding it." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
73/100
     (1989)      "It’s not at all important, but it’s still a great guilty pleasure." [movie review]      Apollo Guide   
  
     (1974)      "With a solid selection of insightful extras and a cleaned up delivery,you've got a must-have DVD for fans of the genre." [dvd review]      Calgary Movies

3/5
     (2003)      "[Gives] more perspective to harsh realities where endings aren't always perfect and the future is left open to either succeed or continue with the same-old, same-old." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
     (2004)      "Violent and bloody, carefully choreographed and filled with dry humor, Takeshi Kitano's modern take on the classic Japanese character is a unique vision that's told with confidence." [movie review]      Movie Views   
  
     (2006)      "This is one powerful film. The shooting style is intense, mixing action with heart-wrenching drama with Leonardo DiCaprio's faux South African accent." [movie review]      Calgary Movies   
  
     (2003)      "Deepa Mehta provides an accessible introduction as well as some intelligent observations on the success of Bollywood in the Western world." [movie review]      Movie Views
