Exodus - Götter und Könige (2014) Online-Streaming-

The Cold War returns full force on the big screen, though by the end of The Man from U.N.C.L.E., you might want to put it back in the fridge.. Whose idea was it to make a cold war thriller for a generation that doesn't know what the cold war was?. An astonishment, an engineering feat, and, finally, a folly.. An utterly clueless, relentlessly grim and rambling action epic guaranteed to displease devout Jews, Christians and Muslims alike, amuse atheists - and generally bore everyone.. Mesmerizing ...

Mann unter Feuer (2004) Streaming-

A depressingly gory parade of vengeance.. A clumsily condensed mystery/thriller novel made into a movie that offers little more than every other clumsily condensed mystery/thriller novel made into a movie.. The picture is joyless and perfunctory. Call it Mission: Possible.. Easily the best of the recent spate of cynical and violent revenge/vigilante dramas.. Despite a red-hot performance by Washington as the antiheroic, self-annihilating title character, the film as a whole, while possessing a k...

Hancock (2008) Film Abspielen

Gets lots of mileage from a combination of high spirits, scorn for the laws of physics, readily renewable energy and an emphasis on family values -- not those of the nuclear family, but of hell-raising, drag-racing outlaws.... . The young "Four" cast appears to have been plucked from an Abercrombie & Fitch catalogue - which isn't an issue until you realize that the characters they're playing are about as thin as the pages in that Gen-Y fashion Bible.. Who knew the fourth sequel to The Fast and t...

Die Bourne Verschwörung (2004) Voll Streaming

[Director] Greengrass proves himself equally adept at action, building on the edginess of Doug Liman's original with a feverish handheld camera and frenetic editing.. A tour-de-force of thriller filmmaking.. When Garfield conceals Peter's confused-angry- betrayed scowl beneath that shiny red mask, Spider-Man 2 summons the giddy derring-do of the best Iron Man offerings. It's a good movie that could have been great.. The movie is utterly synthetic.. The trouble with director Marc Webb's disappoin...

Abraham Lincoln - Vampirjäger (2012) Wiedergabe Von Streaming-

The trouble with the so-called high-concept film is that too often the concept is the best thing about it and the actual movie essentially a series of rather rote, progressively more tiresome variations on its premise.. I really like this movie. thank you. The film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it pretends to do nothing else. It embraces a mystery and protects it, and it’s thrilling to behold.. A masterpiece of genre film-making, really worth to watch.. Here is the wors...

Spy Kids (2001) Film Abspielen

A winner.. Vol. 2 isn't exactly disappointing, and like all of Tarantino's movies, I suspect it will improve with repeated viewings. But for now, Vol. 2 leaves you pondering what could have been.. This green-eyed monster may be the perfect symbol of an angry time. But he's an impossible hero to cheer.. Just wacky enough and gadget-driven enough to appeal to bored kids looking for fresh energies.. A fascinating, if flawed, extravaganza.. An interesting effort to give one of the staples of mass en...

Matrix Revolutions (2003) Wiedergabe Von Streaming-

The Wachowski brothers have rendered their chronicles into banality, as if trying to imitate the qualitative tailspin of the Star Wars series.. During the movie's laborious opening act, you may wonder whether the series itself has escaped such an imperative. Fortunately, Part Three picks up as it goes along.. Over all, The Matrix Revolutions, the third and last of the film cycle envisioned by Andy and Larry Wachowski, mostly feels as hackneyed as the first film felt fresh.. The Matrix Revolution...

Pearl Harbor (2001) Online-Streaming-

What to say about a racing movie that's stuck in idle as drama? For starters, don't race to see it... there's nothing to distract you from a plot so tired there are tire tracks from other racing movies all over it.. It's like watching someone ELSE play a video game for more than two hours. That gets old real fast.. In trying for the vicarious varoom of the street-racing video game that inspired it, and no doubt dreaming of "Fast" success, "Speed" clocks in at a long two-plus hours and falls pain...

Pandorum (2009) Download Voll

Cusack, with his one-of-the-guys face and his nice way with child actors, does creditable work as an Average American Dad trying to put things right.. OK, I'll admit it -- this is hard -- the big silly thing is sort of great.. If the viewer were ever invited to think or feel about what's happening on-screen, the movie's wow-whoa-ain't-it-cool momentum would collapse in a heap of horrific preposterousness.. 2012 is so long, and its special effects are at once so outrageous and so thunderously pre...

Das Bourne Ultimatum (2007) Download Film

The third chapter in the globe-trotting -- more like globe-speeding, actually -- saga of Jason Bourne, a.k.a. the Spy With No Memory, is easily the best of the three.. The Bourne Ultimatum leaps, scampers, scraps and drives its way into the pantheon of all-time great action movies.. Bourne -- or whatever his name really is -- is such a resourceful and reckless agent of chaos, we thrill to him despite the fact that he's officially a non-entity.. Not only far and away this summer's best three-peat...

A clumsily condensed mystery/thriller novel made into a movie that offers little more than every other clumsily condensed mystery/thriller novel made into a movie.. As the details mount, and the star does what stars do, it starts to seem like a good bag of potato chips. There's no nutritional value, but darned if you don't keep eating.. Jack Reacher is an absurdly self-confident, sociopathically laser-focused detective-bot. That is to say, he's a hero that only Tom Cruise could love.. This is br...

Mostly it's Keanu playing bang-bang. If that sounds great, go see the movie. If not, congratulations on aspiring to better things.. John Wick is a rousing action thriller of the sort rarely encountered in theaters these days.. Stahelski has created an impressively distinctive, self-contained world for John Wick that emphasizes sophistication and stylishness.. This is a film where every human being is a sack of meat waiting to be tenderized.. John Wick is the kind of fired-up, ferocious B-movie f...

A movie can have a superb story, amazing cinematography, and mesmerizing writing as well as directing, but without the talent to deliver it all, it finds itself lacking. Great!!. The film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it pretends to do nothing else. It embraces a mystery and protects it, and it’s thrilling to behold.. A masterpiece of genre film-making, really worth to watch.. Music perfectly fits with the movie, the story can't tear myself away from the screen for hour...

Last Knights - Die Ritter des 7. Ordens (2015) Voll Streaming

Morgan Freeman thunders and Clive Owen glowers, but there's little that can be done to save this muddled medieval adventure from itself.. Dumbed down, tarted up, and almost shockingly uninspired, it's the worst superhero movie since Green Lantern.. Owen has floundered of late in his search for a big-screen vehicle worthy of his talents, and "Last Knights" doesn't exactly buck the trend.. This ponderous drama from director Kazuaki Kiriya quickly gets weighed down by its own blood-drenched armor.....

Bourne -- or whatever his name really is -- is such a resourceful and reckless agent of chaos, we thrill to him despite the fact that he's officially a non-entity.. Insistent, ingenious and slammed full of five heart attacks worth of action, The Bourne Ultimatum may be the best conspiracy action-thriller ever made, a beautifully crafted mix of mayhem, well-earned paranoia and unlikely introspection.. The fact that there is already at least one sequel planned feels more like a threat than a treat...

You're never too old for mayhem.. Red is a goofball lament. It's saying that in the good old days, or at least in the good old movie days, our killers were good-time guys.. Old people who kill people are so much cuter than young people who kill people, right? In a movie like RED, that's all we need to know.. Red, perhaps the first CIA-AARP flick, fits seniors with grenade launchers instead of slippers. I say it's about time.. If the story made more sense and the humor were more abundant, this co...

The script is a mess, built on lazy cliches, stilted jokes and easy payoffs. What the movie does have, though, is enthusiasm.. It persistently tries to drag the audience down to its mindless level.. RocknRolla is a recovery from the knockout blows of his past two films but Ritchie is certainly retreading familiar thematic territory.. The whole thing is played for laughs that almost never come.. Pain & Gain weighs about 700 pounds when it ought to weigh 2.. Pain & Gain brings fun to the multiplex...

Wanted's hyperkinetic antics are sometimes weighed down by a surfeit of adolescent misanthropy. But the adrenaline-overdose strategy works for viewers as well as hit men.. A 12-armed heavy-metal drummer of a movie, kicking and flailing through two hours of impossible. The car chase of the year.. There's something generic about the digitally rendered Martians (whatever their stripe and skin tone), and there's a corniness to the dialogue that keeps the audience from any kind of emotional attachmen...

Riddick - Überleben ist seine Rache (2013) Wiedergabe Von Streaming-

Riddick, an alternately kick-ass and clumsy piece of sci-fi claptrap that puts its empty head down and gets the job done.. He's spent the bulk of his career hiding in franchises, hypermasculinizing himself. We can live with this. But this new movie makes you wonder whether Diesel can.. Riddick's at his most fun when the pressure's on, and he retreats to plan something special for his new visitors. All the build-up pays off with tense showdowns in the dark, thrilling restraint and ominous suggest...

Machete Kills dulls more than anything.. "Machete Kills"? "Machete Bores" is more like it.. Robert Rodriguez is America's most frustrating filmmaker.. Machete Kills is a film in which style sardonically routs substance, a cloying gag built around the iconic quality of Trejo's matchlessly craggy face, which resembles a plate of sundried corned beef.. "Machete Kills" is barely a movie. It's an inside joke wrapped in a fanboy fantasy, pieced together through a haze of ironic detachment.. The strong...
