Fri, 30 Oct 2009 06:08:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bkalafut - Mafioso is many things: ethnologue, comedy of manners, psychological drama, lingering comment on the human condition. Not so much a mob movie as an indictment of the "mafioso" and his culture, Alberto Lattuada's 1962 film, restored, rereleased, and just...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author russell72 - I wasn't sure what to expect when I went to see "Expelled" but felt the movie more than lived up to the trailer.

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 22:43:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author cowboy4ev2 - I think everyone should see expelled. Atheists are mad about it because it overturns their little world upside down. It exposes them for the frauds that many of them are (at least in academia). Stein does a great job making the subject of ID vs...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dramastef - Friday night last week was Girl’s Night. Movies, shopping, and dinner – complete with dessert. Girl’s night has changed quite a bit in the last decade. Rather than a thought provoking film, high end stores and a martini bar, this time it consisted of...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kjcjapan - The movie is less about Creationism, Evolution, and Intelligent Design than some (those that don't want you to see the movie) would have you think. It is mostly about academic freedom and the freedom to explore scientific theories that challenge the...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author videodude - If you go in, expecting The Forbidden Kingdom to be a serious examination of Chinese legend and myth. You're half right.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TimSingleton - The new Searchlight Pictures release "Street Kings" was a very welcome surprise. Although Forest Whitaker is one of my favorite actors, the not-so-well-done previews of this movie were uninspiring at best. Now that I have seen this well-made...
