    North Country

    Everyone who has already taken a human resources class or a business law class has heard about the US first ever class action lawsuit for sexual harassment. But one thing is to hear a story in a classroom, and this movie is a whole other story. Battered and wounded, physically and emotionally, from her marriage, [...]

    Derailed

    When James Siegel’s novel was to be adapted to the screen, some might have feared that the intensity of the writing might get lost in the production process. Mikael Håfström, the Sweedish director had a lot of work to deliver, but the casting crew was smart enough to bring some ferociously talented actors to support [...]

    GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK

    George Clooney’s father was a TV newscaster in Cincinnati, Ohio, so it is not a huge surprise that he made this movie about the editorial team at the Columbia Broadcasting System in the 1950s.

  • Flight Plan

    Flight Plan

    This is not your average airplane movie. No wonder it opened at the top of the box office. You do not enter the story thinking about a Passenger 57-like scenario. Jodie Foster plays a widow who loses her daughter on a state-of-the-art Boeing 474. 40,000 feet above ground, with nobody to help but herself, she [...]

  • Lord of War

    Lord of War

    I strongly recommend this movie. Believe me, for you are in for a serious ride. After many years of a life spent around the world “trading” weapons, Yuri Orlov (Nicolas Cage) takes the viewer on a ride about his career: his manhunt games with Interpol, his quest for a larger piece of the American Pie, [...]

  • Hello world!

    Hello world!

    Hannah Montana” is the typical children’s movie to the core: sweet, a bit sappy, and slightly far-fetched. Miley fans will most certainly be thrilled with the teen sensation hitting the big screen.
