Burn the Mona Lisa, because Equilibrium is the Greatest Movie EVER!

Review in a Nutshell: Although it fails to strike the proper balance between brainy science fiction and dumb action movie, Equilibrium is a movie that succeeds despite itself, mostly on the strengths of Christian Bale’s performance and the action scenes featuring gun-kata, the improbably entertaining fictional martial art of wielding firearms.

This movie contains:

Sean Bean, Offender of Senses.

ACTING.

“Hey, not my face. I need that.”

Review in a Nutshell: An old-fashioned horror tale with plenty of humor to lighten the mood, An American Werewolf in London also set the standard for on-screen transformation sequences that has yet to be surprassed.

Review in a Nutshell: A spy movie based off of a deadly serious reading of a satirical novel by Trevanian, The Eiger Sanction captures the zeitgeist of the Seventies in a way that few other films do, not that this is always a good thing.

Fire up the Batsignal, because Batman (1989) is the Greatest Movie EVER!

Click on the DVD cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Sean ‘Hollywood’ Hunting.

Review in a Nutshell: Batman (1989) is an uneven, sometimes idiosyncratic film that in some sense set the pattern for later superhero movies, for good or for ill. Although the Nolan films have eclipsed the work of Tim Burton and his cast and crew in the pop culture consciousness, this version of Batman was instrumental in reintroducing the Dark Knight to an entire generation of movie-goers.
