Greed (1924)
10/10
Greatest Drama Film Ever!!!
14 March 2020
Anyone who has seen the film, agrees with me.this is a good film.Stroheim's masterpiece.Gibson Gowland made a good role.the point is money is evil. Better than Citizen Kane and Godfather or The Shawshank Redemption. Orginally 9 hours long film, I'd like to see 9 hours cut.Von Stroheim was a genius.

Best Silent Movie - Silent Movie Masterpiece
19 March 2016
Warning: Spoilers
This movie is a masterpiece.This was movie,but i enjoyed it as much as any modern film.Douglas Fairbanks made a wonderful role.The whole movie was so interesting.effects and everything.i like everything about this movie.this is a silent movie masterpiece.In the scenes with the giant ape, the guards are played by children. When the ape is out of sight the guards are played by adults. It was done to make the normal-sized ape appear bigger,this was funny scene too.For the scenes in the underwater mermaid kingdom, Douglas Fairbanks had the cameras shoot through a curtain of thin gauze, to give the illusion that the Thief was swimming underwater. The mermaid kingdom scenes were then tinted blue in post-production.One of best movies,i recommend it to everyone.

A Little Masterpiece
23 February 2011
This is not actually masterpiece,but still a rare short movie. only movie where we see Jimmie Rodgers alive.Jimmie was railroad man himself and movie is filmed in "Railroad Eating House". Jimmie Rodgers - the father of country music,Americans blue yodeler, the singing brakeman.He sang three songs and he got one cup of coffee for this.first song "Waiting For A Train"Jimmie actually worked a short brakeman,In 1911, he went to work as a brakeman but had to cut his railroading career short because of contracting consumption in 1924.Second song is "Daddy And Home"One old lady ask for Jimmie do you miss your old dad?Jimmie:yes of course.His Fathers Name was Aaron and the last song is Blue Yodel - his landmark.Lucky old ladies,they saw Jimmie alive and live what a treasure day. Jimmie wears in this movie his work shirt,a bandanna,and a railroad hat.This is movie is old yes,but we should never who was Jimmie Rodgers,without him there would be no Hank Williams, Johnny Cash,Chuck Berry,Beatles,Elvis Presley.he was a true king of music.he died 26 May 1933 - he was 35 years old only.a arrant fan of Jimmie.Lembit.

Like a modern Carrie - Not overrated
4 October 2009
Jennifers Body is a 2009 dark comedy and a horror film written by Diablo Cody.The film is directed by Karyn Kusama and stars Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, Adam Brody and Johnny Simmons. Fox portrays Jennifer Check, a newly possessed teenage serial killer specializing in "offing" her male classmates as best friend "Needy" Lesnicki, portrayed by Seyfried, strives to stop her.The title is a reference to a song from Hole's album Live Through This.Another song from the album, "Violet", is played over the end credits.As a tie-in to the film,Boom.A good film i must acknowledge.Forest scene where Jennifer killed a guy and animals came to watch before killing was really weird. But i must say that Amanda Seyfried is better actress than Megan Fox.Megan is hot but she is not a high class actress like Sofia Loren or Elizabeth Taylor.But she is not overrated.she's watchable. Soundtrack was very good is my opinion.It's is based on novel. I recommend it to Amanda Seyfried and for Megan Fox fans.it's OK.the ending was very interesting.

My Favorite Musical
9 July 2009
The film is one of two major Hollywood musicals produced in 1943 with primarily African-American casts, the other being MGM's Cabin in the Sky, and is considered a time capsule showcasing some of the top African-American performers of the time, during an era when black actors and singers rarely appeared in lead roles in mainstream Hollywood productions, particularly of the musical genre. This movie is timeless.Fats Waller,Lena Horne,Bill Robison and Cab Calloway - stunning stars.Lena Horne(Celina)was a cute and beautiful in this,it is sad it's not a color movie because in color she is probably more beautiful.Songs "Stormy Weather" By Celina(Lena Horne)"Ain't Misbehavin" & "That ain't right" By Fats Waller are classics and the funny Bill Robison.I personally don't like Cab Calloway but he was talented too i guess.Lena Horne was same hot as Marilyn Monroe when was so young.Waller is my favorite.

The film tells the story of two brothers,Derek Vinyard (Norton) and Daniel Danny" Vinyard (Edward Furlong) of LA.Danny's older brother becomes a the leader of a local "white power" gang,when their father has murdered.Derek kills two black gang members,trying to steal his truck and the story begins,he is now 3 years in jail,he is strong in many ways,he has got a brute strength(he likes to train bench press) and healthy mind.But one people is one people.actually you are not god. But he can't do anything to his 6 brutal friends,when they see that he don't hate the blacks anymore and he respect them,it was disgusting scene,when they hit him on the wall and one guy his dick into his ass.i didn't liked this scene.Dereks tattoos were interesting. But when Derek's get out from jail,he wants to his brother too. But his brother and girlfriend and friend are racist against to the blacks.he almost can,but Danny don't understand everything, finally he understand that Hate is dangerous thing,but end is sad.Watch yourself this movie.You'll be mad to don't watch it. Norton is the man.Tony Kaye - the director of this movie is the man too.Norton is maybe not superstar like Megan Fox(Yeah Megan Fox is very cute and sexy)but she is not a very good actress.Norton is and deserve respect that he can really act.

Charmed (1998–2006)
10/10
Best Ever.
22 April 2009
Charmed is an American television series that originally aired from 1998 until 2006, when its network, The WB, ceased operation.The series was created in 1998 by writer Constance M. Burge and was produced by Aaron Spelling and his Spelling Television company, with the show runner being writer-director Brad Kern. The series narrative follows the four Halliwell sisters, Prue, Piper, Phoebe and, later, Paige, the culmination of the long Warren line of powerful, good witches. The sisters, despite being perceived as normal by the non-supernatural community, are known as The Charmed Ones, whose prophesied destiny is to battle against evil beings, such as demons and warlocks, in order to protect innocent lives from being endangered. Each sister possesses unique magical powers that grow and evolve, whilst they also attempt to hold normal working lives in San Francisco. Keeping their paranormal identities separate and secret from their ordinary lives forms part of the series' tension and challenges, with the exposure of magic having far-reaching consequences on relationships and has resulted in a number of police and FBI investigations throughout the series.This is my favorite show of all time.i loved it from my heart.i can't pick my favorite episode all were good. but i actually prefer these episodes where Prue was i loved her more than Paige.But Paige so damn cool too she was so perky and funny and sexier,but Prues acting was better And Of Course i loved Cole and baltazar too.Chris was interesting person. Miss this show so much.8 years a pure classic.

A Cult Classic
9 July 2008
This is a classic a total art in pop culture.Three thrill-seeking go-go dancers — Billie (Lori Williams), Rosie (Haji), and their leader, Varla (Tura Satana)are criminals(Billie not so much)they have a drag racing in desert and Varla kill one man and they kidnapped his girlfriend and hide herself all in one rancho and there meet one old-man and his two son's one is ordinary man,but other is stupid bodybuilder who afraid trains.Varla is very aggressive,draconian and felonious.I didn't liked this character,but all characters were without a doubt charismatics and Varla evil too that she killed Billie and made much hurt to vegetable.in the end Varla appears to win the fight and is about to kill Kirk. Linda gets into the truck and runs over Varla, killing her, leaving Kirk and Linda as the only survivors but this is brilliant is one of the greatest movies ever produced and this rating 6.6/10 is wrong.should in the at least 7.5/10. actors were good too few actors still a good work and director Russ Meyer pretty good too i guess.I'm waiting a remake from Quentin Tarantino were a beautiful porn star Tera Patrick is going to play a Varla.this gonna the hottest remake ever.hope it's gonna be complete soon.

Title is lame but movie was good
30 June 2008
this movie is actually underrated.Last Action Hero is a 1993 action comedy directed by John McTiernan. The film is a satire of the action. The film tells the story of Danny, a young boy who likes action movies, particularly those featuring action hero Jack Slater. It is established within the film that Slater is portrayed by Arnold Schwarzenegger, who plays himself as well as portraying Slater. Thanks to a "magic ticket",the lines between reality and the movie world blur as Danny is catapulted into Jack Slater IV.The Hamlet scene was strange but still very clever and funny.i love the end scene with the boss when Jack Slater(Arnold Schwarzenegger)hits his boss window glass broke and says his boss says you buy it twice.his boss were before his dictator,but he says go to hell sucker.mostly boss's are like these idiots.

Fats Waller is the greatest jazz pianist ever with art Tatum
28 April 2008
He was an excellent and much copied jazz pianist—now considered one of the very best who ever played in the stride style. He also had a touch that varied from subtle and extremely light to very powerful. He was a master of dynamics and tension and release. But it was his singing, songwriting, and his lovable, roguish stage personality that sold his hundreds of recordings for RCA Victor, in a day when much of society did not recognize jazz as "serious" music. He played with many performers, from Gene Austin to Erskine Tate to Adelaide Hall, but his greatest success came with his own five- or six-piece combo, "Fats Waller and his Rhythm". Fats Waller was such an impressive and talented pianist that he came to the attention of the rich and famous—- sometimes whether he wanted to or not. Fats Waller was in Chicago in 1926 and, upon leaving the building where he was performing, Waller was kidnapped by four men, who bundled him into a car and drove off. The car later pulled up outside the Hawthorne Inn, owned by infamous gangster Al Capone. Fats was ordered inside the building, to find a party in full swing. With a gun against his back, Waller was pushed towards a piano, whereupon the gangsters demanded he start playing. A terrified Waller suddenly realized he was the "surprise guest" at Al Capone's birthday party. Soon comforted by the fact that he wouldn't die, Waller played, according to rumor, for three days. When he left the Hawthorne Inn, he was very drunk, extremely tired, and had earned thousands of dollars in cash given to him by Capone himself and by party-goers as tips.[3] Among his songs are "Squeeze Me" (1919), "Keepin' Out of Mischief Now", "Ain't Misbehavin'" (1929), "Blue Turning Grey Over You", "I've Got a Feeling I'm Falling" (1929), "Honeysuckle Rose" (1929), and "Jitterbug Waltz" (1930). He collaborated successfully with the Tin Pan Alley lyricist Andy Razaf for a number of years. Waller also composed stride piano display pieces such as "Handful of Keys", "Valentine Stomp" and "Viper's Drag." His songs have become standards of the jazz repertoire.

Waller made a successful tour of the British Isles in the late 1930s, and appeared in one of the earliest BBC Television broadcasts. While in Britain, Waller also recorded a number of songs for EMI on their Compton Theatre organ located in their Studios in St John's Wood, London. He appeared in several feature films and short subject films, most notably "Stormy Weather" in 1943, which was released only months before his death.

For his hit Broadway show, "Hot Chocolates", with Razaf he wrote "What Did I Do (To Be So Black and Blue)?" (1929) which became a hit for Louis Armstrong. This song, a searing treatment of racism, black and white, calls into question the early accusations of "shallow entertainment" ignorantly leveled at both Armstrong and Waller.

Waller could read and write music well (from his classical keyboard studies) and would even, on occasion, perform organ works of Bach for small groups. He left his stamp on many per-bop jazz pianists. Count Basie and Erroll Garner, for example, would have sounded very different absent the Waller sound. Today, Dick Hyman, Mike Lipskin, Louis Mazatier and other jazz pianists perform in the Waller idiom. Although the stride style, like all jazz, must be learned primarily by ear, many scholars have transcribed his brilliant improvisations from old recordings and radio broadcasts, in sheet music form. The pianist and keyboard professor Paul Posnak produced transcriptions of 16 of Waller's greatest solos, published by Hal Leonard, which Posnak uses in concerts worldwide.Fats Waller is the greatest if i can someday use a time machine then i would like to meet him.

Don't Like Johnny Depp,But This movie is good
26 March 2008
This swash-buckling tale follows the quest of Captain Jack Sparrow, a savvy pirate, and Will Turner, a resourceful blacksmith, as they search for Elizabeth Swann. Elizabeth, the daughter of the governor and the love of Will's life, has been kidnapped by the feared Captain Barbossa. Little do they know, but the fierce and clever Barbossa has been cursed. He, along with his large crew, are under an ancient curse, doomed for eternity to neither live, nor die. That is, unless a blood sacrifice is made. Full of edge-of-the-seat action and swashbuckling adventures, this is a movie you won't want to miss! this is movie good i guess.not my favorite but some scenes are really funny and skeletons are made terribly good.i recommend it.

Freddie Mercury was a god gift to music
29 January 2008
Freddie Mercury AKA Farrokh Bulsara is the biggest Asian music star ever.Queen were a British rock band formed in 1970 in London. But this documentary was good.duet Barcelona with Montserrat Gabbale is easily one of greatest songs ever recorded.Queen was a stunning band.the greatest band ever.the have sold 300 millions albums. all other superstars said good words about Freddie.Paul Mccartney, Rober Plant,Lisa Minelli,Elton John,David Bowie and Slash. Bohemain Rhapsody no doubt this one of most beautiful songs what ever made,but Freddie mercury we all know that he was gay(i'm straight) but what is so special that someone is gay?Freddie was talented. Queen is still one of most legendary bands of all time.Freddie's voice is same good as Enrico Caruso and Luciano Pavarotti.he was a real master.

Stands the name of comedy films
9 December 2007
this is maybe a little bit weird now,but it's one of most funnest movies ever created.Marilyn Monroe,Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon. and director was billy wilder.Two Struggling musicians witness the St. Valentine's Day Massacre and try to find a way out of the city before they are found and killed by the mob. The only job that will pay their way is an all girl band so the two dress up as women. In addition to hiding, each has his own problems; One falls for another band member but can't tell her his gender, and the other has a rich suitor who will not take "No," for an answer.i recommend this movie to it.and yes Monroe was hot there.8/10.

Rudolph Valentino - the greatest silent movie actor
4 November 2007
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse was a anti-war silent movie,but a good movie i don't know this exactly that i have seen the whole movie,but it's a good film.the main topic is the world war I. a lot of scenes were in the bar where people drinking vodka or cognac and smoking cigar or cigarette.Rudolph Valentino has been along time ago my big idol with Jimi Hendrix,Elvis Presley,Hulk Hogan and Ice-T. Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse was without a doubt one of the highest grossing silent films ever.and Rudolph Valentino was of course one of the greatest silent movie actors.i am men so i don't have an opinion about his look,but lady's say that was a sex symbol. and of course the famous tango scene is pretty famous scene in movie history.and i personally haven't seen the two sheik movies.

a very good movie
27 October 2007
Seth Gecko and his younger brother Richard are on the lam after a bloody bank robbery in Texas. They escape across the border into Mexico and will be home-free the next morning, when they pay off the local kingpin. They just have to survive 'from dusk till dawn' at the rendezvous point, which turns out to be a Hell of a strip joint. George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino(who is also one of my favorite directors was very good in this movie)Salma Hayek was very sexy there. The film begins in a liquor store where Seth and Richie hold two girls hostage while attempting to get Pete Bottoms, the clerk, to get rid of Texas Ranger Earl McGraw, who has entered the store. Just as McGraw is about to leave, he is shot in the head by Richie, thinking that Pete has mouthed "help us.".a lot of action good acting and funny scenes.

average movie,but time machine is possibly
21 October 2007
first of all about this movie.Based on the classic sci-fi novel by H.G. Wells, "The Time Machine" stars Guy Pearce - he went 800,000 years into the future it's interesting movie no doubt and book is good i liked the mostly,but some scenes were strange and hard to understand acting was average,but i want to tell why time machine is possibly. most people think that time travel is impossible,but actually there is no law of physics what say that time travel is impossible. time machine is machine what is a powerful chair what can curve the time and space and legend says that Americans used it.it top secret was name phoenix project they say that the base workers went into the year 6030 and the time machine is powerful chair what can curve the time and space like i said before just.believe it or not.it should be 99.5 about the speed of light what means 25 000 km/s.and they saw(workers) say lost city.

Dracula is better,but still a good film
14 October 2007
Honeymooning in Hungary, Joan and Peter Allison share their train compartment with Dr. Vitus Verdegast, a courtly but tragic man who is returning to the remains of the town he defended before becoming a prisoner of war for fifteen years. When their hotel-bound bus crashes in a mountain storm and Joan is injured, the travelers seek refuge in the home, built fortress-like upon the site of a bloody battlefield, of famed architect Hjalmar Poelzig. There, cat-phobic Verdegast learns his wife's fate, grieves for his lost daughter, and must play a game of chess for Allison's life.Bela Lugosi is without a doubt my favorite horror actor of all time.i love his roles.he was the no doubt one of the greatest actors ever and Boriss Karloff who terrible in Frankenstein i guess was very good in this movie.a little bit strange movie but i recommend it.

good movie
10 October 2007
The Bride woke up after a long coma. The baby that she carried before the coma was gone. The only thing on her mind was to get revenge on the assassination team that betrayed her - a team she was once part of. With two of the people on her Death List taken care of, she must pursue Budd, Elle Driver and of course Bill himself. Uma Thurman is very nice actress to me i really like her.Tarantino is great director in nowadays.Volume 2 opens with "The Massacre at Two Pines," taking place a few minutes before the events that open the first volume.but still very much violence.very stylish movie. i was a little bit disgusting when the bride hit a eye off from her enemy.

The Gold Rush (1925)
8/10
Legendary Film
3 October 2007
Charles Spencer Chaplin AKA Charlie Chaplin was the most popular silent movie actor.this movie is strange,but still a timeless classic what even nowadays can't beat.the movie story Alaska 1898 a lot of people looking for a pure gold and it's not easy. without a doubt one of the greatest comedy what ever made on planet earth.funny.and of course characters are very interesting. carving up a boot scene is very famous maybe the most famous scene in silent movie history.some scenes are maybe not in nowadays realistic,but it's still very funny.my opinion the greatest silent movie is Napoleon(1927)and Metropolis(1927)and third is definitely Gold Rush i recommend it to watch it.

maybe a little bit overrated but still very nice
3 October 2007
Uma Karuna Thurman is hardly sexy woman.She is 6 feet tall(1.83) and her appearance is very cute and of course she is sandy blond.love her.but the movie was good too some scenes was lame for sure,but effects was good.Uma Thurman role was brilliant because she is good actress.Lucy Liu she is too good actress.but these ninjas was damn lame just pointless it was the worst part of the movie. This sword that the bride used was beautiful sword.and to to the haters of this movie go as#.and believe it or not,but Taratino is one of the greatest of our time.i personally recommend it to watch this movie.7.0/10.some people say this is a overrated film maybe it's truly a little bit overrated but still pretty good and Uma Thurman is sexy bad-ass
