Cartoon Humour Classic
Reviewed by PopcornDelight for Who Framed Roger Rabbit at 2011-11-25 08:38:37
There is no end to the hilarity of this movie - what with its gags and jokes - "Aren't you Eddie Valiant, or did you change your name to Jack Daniels?". I found the live action and cartoon combo fascinating, and especially loved the piano duet with Donald and Daffy Duck. It is full of historical cultural influences (The Ink And Paint Club, for example) and is full to bursting with many different types of characters. My favourite character is Judge Doom, along with the star of the show, Roger Rabbit. A richly, entertaining movie.

Flawed, but Worthwhile
Reviewed by criddic2 for Hollywoodland at 2010-09-26 04:41:48
Did Superman commit suicide? That's a question not fully answered in this generally compelling detective story that follows Brody's investigation into what really happened to TV star George Reeves, who we meet in flashbacks. Brody is fine in his portions of the film, but his spotlight is stolen away by a surprisingly effective Ben Affleck as Reeves.

Disagree with the Hound on this one....excellent flick
Reviewed by KHL for Stay at 2008-10-15 12:23:04
This is a 'multiple viewings' movie; having only seen it once, I am already wanting to see it again to pick up what I missed the first time around. Beautifully, artfully directed story about characters who don't seem to have a grip on what their own reality is. Kind of like Shyamalan, it's hard to describe much else, except to say that it's a stellar cast, riveting performances and mesmerizing to watch.

Feast of Cinematic Pleasures
Reviewed by www.BraidedThreads.blogspot.com for Paris, je t'aime at 2008-08-28 12:43:39
This collection of short pieces is a feast of cinematic pleasures. Astonishing. It is like a collection of poignant, varied poems.

Ultimate Guy Movie
Reviewed by DDDDC84 for Doomsday at 2008-07-30 17:11:36
Doomsday stands as the ultimate guy movie. Of course it doesn't beat classics like The Godfather or Braveheart but it has every single thing a guy could want in a movie. You have a very attractive young actress as the lead roll and she has something unique about her that makes her an awesome hero. You have a post apocoliptic world with amazing fight scenes, car chases and gun battles. And you have a Mid-evil world where you have jousting and sword fights. Dont worry it all makes sense in the movie, and no their time travel. The acting and the way the movie ended couldve been better but if you looking to kick back have some beer and watch a fun movie this is your pick.

True favorite
Reviewed by CoolerKing for Brazil at 2008-04-04 10:22:25
Gilliam is the king of the "love em or hate em" filmmakers, but Brazil is his best-loved film, and there's a reason. It's visionary, weird, sad, shocking, funny, and dark - plus De Niro plays a terrorist plumber. Might be my favorite movie ever.
