Dweia reviewed Get Low (2010)

Finally

I have been waiting for this movie to come out for what seems like years. I'm thrilled to report that it was just as good as I'd hoped it would be. While I wish that some things had been different, a few less flash backs and more tall tales about Robert Duvall's character Felix, the film was simply amazing.

Dweia reviewed Popstar (2005)

Ouch

This movie is so bad that it almost hurts, and its not bad in a good way. The way some films are so bad they're awesome? This film is not. I only gave it a 2 because any redeeming qualities this film has is because it has just a little bit of cuteness. Just a little bit. Mostly though, it hurts. I can't even describe to you why I even watched this to begin with.

Dweia reviewed Inception (2010)

Inception

Wow. The film was climatically beautiful, the acting was superb and the way it makes you think is on par with how people first reacted to the Matrix. But I have got to say, the end of that film irritated me.

It made me leave the theatre in an aggravated mood which simply soured the brilliance of that film. But it is so worth it to go see the film. It is one of the ...

Dweia reviewed The Laramie Project (2002)

Film of the Decade

A beautiful film, based on the recordings of a troop of actors, that brought the worlds attention back to the hurtful, desperate pain in the death of a young man who did nothing but love.

The film's script is taken from the transcripts that an acting troop had gathered before the trials of Aaron James Henderson and Russell Arthur Henderson. The play that was created from these interviews helped to pass Hate Crime legislation in ...

Dweia reviewed Finding Neverland (2004)

A Forgotten Favorite

I think perhaps I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed this film until I'd watched it again this evening. The story of Peter Pan - the boy who never grew up - is one that lives in the memory of every person who watched Disney as a child. In recent years the story has been retold through live action and with Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet ...

Dweia reviewed Peaceful Warrior (2006)

A beautiful reason

A truer story about finding peace hasn't been found on film before. I've watched thousands of movies in my time and I can honestly say that Peaceful Warrior is a touching and moving experience. By finding this man, Socrates, Dan Millman opens his mind to something greater than winning.

Similar to the film The Celestine Prophecy, this movie sheds light on the human condition. Buddhist philosophy resides in the knowledge that every moment is ...

Dweia reviewed Alice in Wonderland (2010)

Meh

It wasn't fantastic. Honestly, the original Disney version was better. Tim Burton tried too hard to make it a kids movie but at the same time make it as creepy as the rest of his movies. It was an awkward mix. The cinematography was brilliant and beautiful. If you see it definitely see it in 3D because its so much better that way ...
