Stephen Chow’s Shaolin Soccer was a unique genre potpourri in which sports films, The Matrix, and science fiction anims all irreverently coalesced into a frantically funny tale of victorious underdogs. The filmmaker’s signature cartoon craziness – an idiosyncratic mixture of Buster Keaton’s physical comedy and Dragonball Z’s lunatic action – likewise permeates Kung Fu Hustle, a similarly ridiculous medley of gangster pictures, musicals, and martial arts films. read the full review | |

 | | 18. Star Wars-Clone Wars (Single Disc) new! | | | Director: Dave Filoni | | Format: DVD Release Date: 11/10/2009 |  | Star Wars: The Clone Wars - DVD Review By: Rich Knight - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 11/17/2008 11:52 PM | | While watching Star Wars: The Clone Wars, I pitied today's youth. It's not that this film is entirely terrible. But if this is what today's youth is growing up with-one lightsaber battle too many-then how could they ever possibly find interest in the far superior original trilogy of Episodes 4, 5, and 6 read the full review | |

Mel Gibson deserves a lot more credit than I've been giving him. A few years ago, no one could have conceived that the action star could pull off the lead role in a dazzling, epic, historical adventure-thriller-romance, let alone direct it. But he does, making Braveheart a vastly entertaining and powerful film. Gibson plays Scottish hero William Wallace, a Scotsman with simple roots who finds himself thrust into a role as leader of the Scottish revolt against England in the late 13th century. After the despicable King Edward the Longshanks (Edward I) decrees that English nobles will have the right to sexual relations with all newly-wed Scottish women, the revolution is set in motion. read the full review | |

In their seven-part Iraq War miniseries adaptation of Evan Wright's book Generation Kill, David Simon and Ed Burns roll up a quiverful of arrows to fire off at various topics, ranging from the rampaging adrenaline of young men at war to the supreme idiocy of the invasion itself. However, the bright and gleaming theme running through most of these hard-bitten episodes has the filmmakers illustrating an age-old military maxim: Soldiers are often much more likely to be killed by the decisions of their submoronic leadership than they are by actions undertaken by the enemy. read the full review | |
