Motion Picture Fragments: APOCALYPTO
http://motionpicturefragments.blogspot.com/2009/04/apocalypto.html
Insightful Movie Reviews by Joseph Christian. Thursday, April 9, 2009. I went to this movie half expecting to see a heroic Mel Gibson leading a troupe of conquistadors and crushing native settlements with guns, germs and steel in yet another sweeping war epic. What I found instead was a brutal, oddly hilarious and exhilarating story about survival, bravery, and love. Posted by Joe Christian. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). QUANTUM OF SOLACE (Spoilers).

Motion Picture Fragments: KILL BILL VOL 1 & 2 (Spoilers)
http://motionpicturefragments.blogspot.com/2009/04/kill-bill-vol-1-2-spoilers.html
Insightful Movie Reviews by Joseph Christian. Thursday, April 9, 2009. KILL BILL VOL 1 and 2 (Spoilers). What I liked about the films:. What I didn't like about the films:. One thing that reminded me that I was watching a movie and shattered my suspension of disbelief was the overdramatic camp of the narration and voice overs. I thought the images communicated the story strongly without these alliterations and found the extra information distracting. Slow motion entrances and dramatic introductions are f...

Motion Picture Fragments: THE VILLAGE (Spoilers)
http://motionpicturefragments.blogspot.com/2009/04/village-spoilers.html
Insightful Movie Reviews by Joseph Christian. Thursday, April 9, 2009. If you have not already seen this film, by all means stop reading; or you will be finding your Christmas presents early. As you may know from Shyamalan's previous films he uses major plot points to drastically alter the paradigm you have been lead to believe in as you enveloped yourself in his fantasy world. Remember, I'm only trying to protect you. Be very afraid. Posted by Joe Christian. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Motion Picture Fragments: THE DEPARTED (Spoilers/Mature Content)
http://motionpicturefragments.blogspot.com/2009/04/departed-spoilersmature-content.html
Insightful Movie Reviews by Joseph Christian. Thursday, April 9, 2009. THE DEPARTED (Spoilers/Mature Content). Much has been made of this Scorcese picture of recent Oscar fame (or so I've heard- I don't watch award shows) but what I say is this; "Don't buy the hype, buy the movie." I enjoyed this film and would like to share my views about this hip gangster flick set in the Southy projects of Boston. Posted by Joe Christian. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Motion Picture Fragments: IRON MAN
http://motionpicturefragments.blogspot.com/2009/04/iron-man.html
Insightful Movie Reviews by Joseph Christian. Thursday, April 9, 2009. The Iron Man story was smartly updated to address the threat of ruthless terrorists and corrupt businessmen alike while still maintaining an air of fun and lighthearted thrill seeking with the cavalier characterisation of Tony Stark. The picture was well cast, especially in the case of Robert Downey Jr. who appeared every bit the genius inventor and industrialist the role called for, with a great ensemble of talent.

Motion Picture Fragments: V FOR VENDETTA (Spoilers)
http://motionpicturefragments.blogspot.com/2009/04/v-for-vendetta-spoilers.html
Insightful Movie Reviews by Joseph Christian. Thursday, April 9, 2009. V FOR VENDETTA (Spoilers). I might have versed volumes of versatile verbage however I may spare you as, like me, you have already enjoyed such venerated vernacular. Of course, I mean to introduce you only to my impressions of "V for Vendetta" and a few related works. At this point you may be wondering (as the critical thinker that you are) how similar our approved governing style is to that which we would care for our children, when i...

Motion Picture Fragments: CASINO ROYALE
http://motionpicturefragments.blogspot.com/2009/04/casino-royale.html
Insightful Movie Reviews by Joseph Christian. Thursday, April 9, 2009. FADE IN: EXT. STREETS OF PRAGUE - NIGHT. Black and white. What a great introduction! Since this is a remake of the first installment (don't make that face) of the James Bond series we get to see how the new Bond, Daniel Craig, becomes a 00 Agent. Plus the title song and credits design were amazing and somehow didn't suck at all. Posted by Joe Christian. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). QUANTUM OF SOLACE (Spoilers).

Motion Picture Fragments: THE WATCHMEN (Spoilers)
http://motionpicturefragments.blogspot.com/2009/04/watchmen-spoilers.html
Insightful Movie Reviews by Joseph Christian. Thursday, April 9, 2009. The film adaption of. By Alan Moore, faithfully captured much of the novel's graphic content and mood, at times even playing as a frame-by-frame duplication, but ultimately failed to meet enormous fan expectations. Watchmen was the best movie it could be, up until the final scenes, which pushed the feature beyond redemption with ill-conceived re-writes. Yet another case of the book being better than the movie. 'Nuff said. NO COUNTRY F...
