La Reine Margot is about the St. Bartholomew's day massacre and the intrigues at the court before and after the event. It uniquely tries to denominate Catherine de Medicis as the evil culprit as can be seen, in a way, by her terrible Italian accent. Even though till today the orchestrator of the massacre is in doubt, the movie seems to place the blame on an outsider, on an Italian. Ah, the French, always weary of the outsider. It is close to hilarious to see the portrayal of Charles the ninth as a hypochondriac/drunk, always under the control of external influences. External from himself. Himself representing France. An acute sense of this movie can be derived from a dialog lasting fifteen or so seconds, and which I could not get out of my head {and I kept telling myself throughout the film}. It is the scene where Margot tells Charles XIX, after he witnesses the massacre: Calme-Toi, Calme-Toi. The film is a stupid, overly dramatized piece of work that plays to the emotions of the French. It is a crime against historical fiction and should be persecuted to the fullest extent; the penalty being its burning. The burning of all its copies, original and duplicate reels, so that not a word of it might be spoken of; ever.

I saw this movie about 3 days ago at the Long Beach town center.before viewing this I had just finished watching the pursuit of happiness and quite honestly it was pretty boring.So 4 out of 8 of my friends stumble into this movie having very high expectations.I personally like CIA movies like the Bourne series. The first hour ....okay still interested....the second hour...cant wait for it end. The basic plot of the movie is ...that it has pretty much none at all. And it keeps dragging on introducing these characters who more or less have no effect whatsoever on the movie.I am not complaining about the lenght or lack of a plot but could you throw a little action into it please. One of my favorite movies is Gangs Of new York and it basically is of the same lenght and is also devoid of a plot and I still think it is one of the best movies ever.Thats all from me.

5 out of 10

i saw this movie on cable and it was gruesome and awesome.The basic story relies on the path of Sandeman eho is the ultimate crime boss of Liverpool and suddenly gives the reins to his two evil daughters who after seizing power, betray him and hunt him down for some business problems.If you don't like gore,stay away from the movie.i am from India and the bad guy is also an Indian.Nyway this guy is all into torture and the music at the end and during the movie.Its one Richard Harris's best and least watched movie.ten lines.O.K.Hey are British mobsters really brutal and all into torture?Even in British mob games it shows.

Anyone who has watched Indian TV shows must have experienced some stupidity in some way.Like in Jassi Jaisi, the stupid case of Jessica killing jassi and when she she tells them that she is really jassi ,they don't believe her and put up all these lame arguments when any idiot who have had the brains would have told the judge just to take finger prints.Oh enough about that.As same as it were,Kkusum faces these silly obstacles in getting her true love back.c'mon this serial has been going on for over nine years,can you imagine one family can face so many tragedies.some really bad luck,HUH? my ratings for this show is 4/10

I watched this movie on cable TV and i was really blown away.since i didn't expect any thing from the preview,but i was blown away.The only thing that made this movie great was the performance of Al pacino.he finally received the academy award which he was so long been denied.There were three things i liked about this movie: m 1}Al pacino driving the Ferrari 2}tangoing AND THE FINAL ORATION. 3}HOOH-HAH!!!!!!!!!! you know that guy in Mail call on the history channel?he uses the same word HOOH-HAH!...I wonder where he got it from??? If you get a chance to watch this movie don't let it go.my overall rating for this movie is 10/10.

i watched this show when i was in India since we get AxN {a Sony entertainment network}.its a really great show that keeps you on the edge of your couch.From the classic....riding a bike across two skyscrapers to the very easy destruction of a very bulky book ..this show was among the best and it was also best in its themes and ideas.this is an Australian TV show and probably one of the best breathtaking shows that the great Island had to offer.I also liked the hosts especially the lady.she is HOT HOT HOT.{my rating 4 out of a possible 5.hey and somebody knows whether the show is cancelled or what?cause i don't see it anymore.if u ever get a chance watch it it even beats out fear factor.
