Starring Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen, this dramatic jaunt into the lives and times [...]]]></description>

Those upset (myself included) that Criterion had to withdraw their planned Blu-ray edition of Ran due to a rights issue can cheer up as the holder of those rights was making the same plans. Lionsgate Home Entertainment in cooperation with StudioCanal are set to release Ran as well as 1955&#039;s The Ladykillers starring Alec Guinness [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In my &#034;B&#034; review of Gomorrah last December I opened saying &#034;its dedication to [Roberto Saviano's non-fiction story] causes the film to lack focus as it spreads itself too thin by telling five separate stories.&#034; After seeing it a second time I still stand by this statement, but not as adamantly as I did before.

		<description><![CDATA[Wim Wenders&#039;s Wings of Desire is able to capture your attention despite its sparing plot for the main reason you know its about something even if that something takes its sweet time in fully revealing itself. The film follows two guardian angels, Damiel (Bruno Ganz) and Cassiel (Otto Sander), as they watch over humanity from [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My experience with Merchant/Ivory Productions is limited to say the least as Howards End now marks the second film of theirs I have seen, with A Room With a View being the other. While elegantly made, A Room With a View didn&#039;t move me that much, but I can say Howards End did a lot [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Tournament
QUICK THOUGHTS: The easiest question to ask before ever watching a second of The Tournament is why would the world&#039;s top 30 assassins get involved in a tournament in which the last person alive is the winner? Of course, you could say &#034;the money,&#034; but these people are in a rather lucrative business where [...]]]></description>

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs







Ugh, I did not like this movie and, like the sequels to Shrek, will never be returning to watch it. There must come a point during the writers&#039; meetings where the inevitable poop or sex joke [...]]]></description>

Such was the case for Michael Dougherty&#039;s long-delayed Trick &#039;r Treat, which was slated for a theatrical release as far back as October 2007, but was subsequently shifted to Warner Bros.&#039;s direct-to-DVD label and shuffled onto shelves for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Orphan is a terrible movie as it knowingly plays into all the horror clichés you can imagine, and does it twice, once to lure you into believing they won&#039;t bow down to convention and then a second time to show that they will. The film runs just over two hours, and requires absolute patience from [...]]]></description>

Natural Born Killers (Unrated Director&#039;s Cut)
