 | | 23. A Time to Kill | | | Starring: Samuel L. Jackson Matthew McConaughey Director: Joel Schumacher | | Format: DVD Release Date: 11/11/2008 |  | A Time to Kill - DVD Review By: Christopher Null - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 1/16/2009 7:45 PM | |
Remember the hoopla over the novel A Time To Kill? It was celebrated author John Grisham's second book -- actually his first book -- the book he published after The Firm became a hit. The book that no one wanted before he was famous. The book, apparently, that, if it hadn't had his name on it, would never have been published. Now it's the fourth Grisham movie to be made, continuing in grand fashion that franchise of increasingly average film versions of his increasingly average writing. read the full review | |

 | | 29. Religulous | | | Director: Larry Charles | | Format: DVD Release Date: 2/17/2009 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | Religulous - DVD Review By: Rich Knight - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 2/24/2009 6:46 PM | | Bill Maher is a genius. No matter what you might have thought of Politically Incorrect or what you currently think of Real Time With Bill Maher, he's a genius, and this is not something I ever thought before watching this movie. The brilliant thing about this documentary, which, as noted in the commentary (more on that later), was NOT included in the Academy's list of best docs of last year, is that it manages to give a clear, defining point against religion and still be completely entertaining. I attribute that to Maher's capability to not be malicious about his beliefs, and to talk to intelligent, passionate, and undoubtably kind people who are willing to put their faith on the line and talk to (And I'm serious about this) a modern day Socrates; one who doesn't pull any punches and most importantly, asks the key question of, "Just how do really you know'" It's the responses that he gets from that question that make this movie stand head over shoulders over any other answer-seeking doc in the past five years or so. read the full review | |
