movie reviews

Most people love to talk about movies they've seen, even if it's to just give a thumbs-up or thumbs-down. That makes movie reviews a popular tag.

Movie reviews refers to analysis of or commentary on particular movies. Some sites compile reviews from a variety of sources, others ask readers for reviews and other sites use individual reviews. The tag may have broad usage, encompassing not only movies currently in theaters but also ones that are released on DVD. It will also cover the full spectrum of movies, from dramas to comedies to documentaries.

While one might consider being a movie reviewer one of the greatest jobs around, the quality of movie reviews depends on knowledge of film as a whole or the subject matter of a particular movie.

• In Memorium (2005) Movie Review

  
  BeyondHollywood.com | Movie News, Reviews, and Opinions — Authority: 517
  Writer/director Amanda Gusack’s dramatic 2005 supernatural outing “In Memorium” has the unfortunate distinction of being mentioned in the same breathe as Oren Peli’s grossly overhyped indie hit “Paranormal Activity,” a fact which thrills her to no end, I’m sure. Truthfully, there are very few ...

  /Film — Authority: 784
  For me, that’s the best part about reading a Dan Brown novel, is learning trivial bits of information on places and history. No one really reads Brown’s books for his “master storytelling”, do they? His latest book, The Lost Symbol came out while I was at the Toronto International Film Festival, and I ...

  Talk of an Inglourious Basterds prequel is nothing new.

Word was that the next film would be about a ...

  As you’ve probably noticed by now, ABC’s promos for the sixth and final season of Lost have been entirely composed of old clips, featuring no clips from the new season. The reason for this is that Damon Lindelof and Carton Cuse have said that they are trying to keep the last season of the sci-fi drama as ...

  I n most years, “(500) Days of Summer” would be a light, genre-breaking delight, and nothing more. This year, that’s probably enough to earn the film some Oscar talk. That’s the sorry state of this year’s film lineup, but it’s also a reminder Academy voters should share some love with movies that put a ...

  It is hard to come across a sentence involving Anu Malik that isn’t preceded or succeeded by plagiarism. I too have done that in the past.

  Fused Film — Authority: 508
  Like its predecessor, The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day is a rocking, firework popping action extravaganza that doesn’t add anything deep to the series but what it does is bring us the continuation of a cult classic that after 10 years hasn’t missed a beat. It would be a disservice to harp on Troy ...

  /Film — Authority: 784
  While Nowhere Boy , the account of John Lennon ’s teen years, is drawing tepid to good reviews after a recent London festival debut, I’m still seeing voices of dissent and disinterest aimed at the film, which stars Aaron Johnson as the young Lennon.
