I liked this debut of remarkable French actor Kad Merad like director and although his story is not quite original, he was able to make its peculiar. It's very kind and soulful movie about what every of us in need of native and loved one particularly our children. "Monsieur Papa" is simple and clear for everyone friendship story that is full of love, nice humor and lovely mood. Kad Merad in his debut assembled terrific cast from beautiful Michèle Laroque, stylish Vincent Perez and great little actor Gaspard Meier, also himself brilliantly played main role. Maybe it's not some masterpiece for aesthetes but it's optimal film for evening watching with all family exactly.

Very strange film but as well very enthralling. At first I couldn't to understand genre of this movie, it's a little thriller, a little psychological drama and a little independent film. I seem "Martha Marcy May Marlene' will be very boring story for majority, it's too slow movie and it's not for everybody exactly but something holds your attention in it definitely. I liked very much performance by young actress Elizabeth Olsen, she is very beautiful and mysterious. Also I liked here John Hawkes, he is very charismatic. Sarah Paulson and Hugh Dancy are as always a great and truthful. It's not simple film but very interesting, in my opinion, and it clearly done with skill.

It's the most laughable film that Woody Allen made late years. I love and seen all his works and he is my favorite director exactly. "To Rome with love" is remarkable situation comedy and Woody Allen have always done similar films with peculiar brilliance and charm. I seem I laughed in a theater louder than everybody. Woody Allen as always a great, witty and in his fine creative form. I have been very glad to see his on a screen and his performance with Judy Davis was one of the most funny in that beautiful movie. Almost many thanks to Woody for luxurious cast, particularly for Ornella Muti and Roberto Benigni. For me "To Rome with love" is the best comedy this summer that raised my mood to the cosmic heights. Thank you Woody and long life.

Not bad French comedy with interesting plot and good actors. An idea of this film is very original although I saw many movies about lucky guys who won quite a few money like "Brewster's Millions", "Mr. Deeds" or "Mr. Billion" but these were all American films. "Ah! Si j'étais riche" is the story very similar to real life. The main character Aldo is not handsome man, he's not successful, he's miser and he has very bad disposition but easy money won't make him happy never, maybe just better and cleverer. It's remarkable situation comedy with good sense and nice humor. I recommend its everybody who wants just to relax after hard work day and to look an easy funny film.

It's rather weakest French comedy though there is Jean Dujardin who after his brilliant "The Artist" is the big star this year. A plot of this film is very interesting and entertaining but on a screen somehow happens terrible boredom, perhaps there is couple good jokes and probably that's all. "L'amour aux trousses" is very simple and light movie for one watching that you'll immediately forget. I very like French films, they are peculiar and nice, original and romantic, funny and kind, but this film made not up to par and without enthusiasm, in my opinion, unfortunately. It seems has everything but something not enough. In whole "L'amour aux trousses" is not bad but...

I have watched this film for two reason. At first, this is film by interesting and remarkable director from Denmark Lone Scherfig. I opened her for myself in 2009 with her terrific work "An Education" that I liked very much. At second, it's the excellent actors Anne Hathaway, who has always disliked me until I saw her in "Rachel Getting Married" and Jim Sturgess who will be always one of my favorite actors only for his brilliant role in "Across the Universe". Anne Hathaway in "One Day" like Charlize Theron in "Sweet November", in my glance, was able to make beautiful image of an ideal woman, who is searching every man in his life. She is witty, charming, touching, cheerful and fantastically beautiful. "One Day" is not film only for women, it's very life-asserting story for everyone.

This is one of those rare comedies that I'm not tire re-watching with great pleasure. I'm sure, every man at Earth dreams to know what really women want and I think even women don't know it answer. This film will not give up exact an answer this question but it's hinting exactly. Remarkable director Nancy Meyers was able to make film about relationship men and women that will be interesting for everyone. Mel Gibson is the star of action movies terrific showed himself in comedian role, proving what he can laugh at himself too. Charming Helen Hunt make perfect portrait of modern woman who is active, confident in herself, independent but as well she is vulnerable, touching and tender in her inner world. In that film there are many beautiful women as Bette Midler, Marisa Tomei, Lauren Holly, Judy Greer, Sarah Paulson, Lisa Edelstein and therefore for me "What Women Want" like a feast.

This debut by Dany Boon as director I liked in whole but not so as his next works "Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis" and "Rien à déclarer" and I find them the very best French comedies for lately. "La maison du bonheur" is very laughable movie but main characters sometimes looks too silly and even irritate particularly those situations with the stupid repairers. I liked Daniel Prévost and his character the estate agent Jean-Pierre Draquart is very funny and Michèle Laroque is very beautiful woman and remarkable actress. Actually this film in plot is very similar to old and nice film "The Money Pit" with Tom Hanks and Shelley Long but there was more catastrophic situation. "La maison du bonheur" is not a masterpiece but very not bad comedy for a one evening.

I didn't like that movie but it has many great jokes, definitely. I have never seen old TV series "21 Jump Street" with Johnny Depp and I can't compare its with the new version unfortunately. In my glance, main disadvantage of that film is vulgar humor that irritates me strongly. After every really funny joke next appearing three silly and it's regrettable because there are good plot, good actors but it seems to me some jokes in this film written special for morons. Why? I don't understand. I'm not a prude, I like Kevin Smith, American Pie for example, but everything should be in moderation and harmoniously. "21 Jump Street" is clearly not that case, unfortunately.

Very emotional and philosophical story. That film is definitely not for everyone but if you like independent and strange movies it's very good choice. Mike Cahill is director, screenwriter, operator and producer of this film and in my opinion it's very successful his debut in big cinema. I like slowness of that story and its science fiction atmosphere. Although I could foresee ending this story it's an incredibly touching and deepest drama about feeling guilty, opportunity change their life and future, search for an unknown and about love. Actors Brit Marling and William Mapother, who I remember on "Lost", brilliantly had played their roles showing all difficulties our inner world. It's clever and contemplative movie for clever people.

It's surprisingly funny film and very interesting performance by Sean William Scott for a long time. Also Liev Schreiber, who have always been playing different intellectuals or cute rascals, he is arise here in not typical for him theatrical character, and I like that. If you like "Slap Shot" with great Paul Newman or just sport films you should be to see "Goon" without fail. It's dynamic and entertaining movie where there are many great jokes, funny situations, tough fights and a little bit of sport. Although where also there are much vulgar humor and blood here, "Goone" is not stupid and very kind movie. Director Michael Dowse had made sometime remarkable film "It's All Gone Pete Tong" and quite weakest comedy "Take Me Home Tonight " and his new work "Goon" is definitely his big victory.

It's a disgusting movie, where are no sense and no art. It reminded me of old and good film "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer" of 86 th year with Michael Rooker, where were all what you need, real story, interesting plot, charismatic and brutal main character, good acting and scaring tension. In "American Translation" there is nothing similar. On a screen I just saw the stupid and revolting lovers who doing nothing except murder and sex, they have no motivation, no reason for that, just they are bored. They are much talking about love but they didn't love each other really. They are unfeeling and blind for each other and for me such characters not interesting. I don't know why and for whom made this film.

It's amazing and touching film, where there are much nice music and songs. Terrific Bette Midler and surprising James Caan made up on a screen beautiful and harmonious duo, their characters Dixie Leonard and Eddie Sparks were raising spirit for soldiers at war and they have very patriotic work. That's very right and patriotic film showing respect to army and boys who were at war. Remarkable director Mark Rydell, who I love for his masterpieces "The Rose" and "On Golden Pond" made this very vital and sincere movie that also entertainingly and funny to watch. Bette Midler is pure brilliance!!! When she sang for soldiers I was in tears. She is really genius and incredible actress.

At first, it's very beautiful movie particularly for who like nature and fishing. At second, this film by Lasse Hallström who has been shooting always very life-asserting and touching stories and if you seen "Chocolat", "What's Eating Gilbert Grape", "Hachiko: A Dog's Story" or "The Shipping News" you know what I mean. I'm very big fan of this terrific Swedish director and "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen" made as always in his individual style. In this film there are all parts of his the best movies as lovely humor, pretty love story, engrossing nature and plus remarkable actors Ewan McGregor, Emily Blunt and Kristin Scott Thomas. It's optimal choice for watching with all family in nice warm evening.

I have always been delighting Arthur Hiller's films and particularly such movies as "See No Evil, Hear No Evil", "Author! Author!" and "Outrageous Fortune". His comedies are kind and timeless and they can raise my mood always. "Married to It" is not typical Hiller's comedy. It's a film about relationships between people, about conceiving of a friendship between strangers, about differences between us and resemblances. It's very vital and clever story, here is very much funny and serious things, that we can to wonder. I very liked characters who play remarkable actors Beau Bridges, Stockard Channing, Robert Sean Leonard and Cybill Shepherd, they are real, charismatic and lovely.

I became interested this movie because all my friends praised its and recommended me and I have been liked always Reese Witherspoon and also I was very impressed by Tom Hardy in "Warrior". "This Means War" is not my movie, exactly. It's the funny, nice and optimal story for girls who like all shiny, beautiful and expensive. I don't like similar films since they have no life, no real feelings, no real people. It's like a commercial, where everything ideally and cleanly, where people are beautiful and all troubles solve themselves. I liked "We Are Marshall" by McG but all rest his movies not for me. I'm not regret that spent my time on that film but I won't re-watching its never.

Very touching and heartbreaking drama about relationships of mother and daughter and if you are parent you will know what I mean after watching. One of my favorite actress Bette Midler is really diverse actress. She is very brilliantly in a comedy and terrific in a drama. I saw all her films and "Stella" I like most. It's very vital story about us and our relation to our parents. This film make you wonder about this. I was in tears after watching "Stella". It's true. That's very emotional and prettily film with the right thoughts that very important to us all today. People are need of such movies and I sad what in theaters you can't to see similar stories now, because in the majority, the modern films are very lifeless and unfeeling, in my opinion. It's regrettable.

It's very kind and nice French comedy with original plot and remarkable actors. I like films about food and different cuisines like "Julie & Julia", "Ratatouille" or "No Reservations" and if you like such films too, you'll should be watch to "Comme un chef" without fail. This film has the many such delicious and beautiful dishes with very attractive titles, that you will can go crazy particularly if you hungry. I like Jean Reno in comedian roles and here he is very funny and and as always a great. And also I fell in love French actress Raphaëlle Agogué, she is inexpressible beautiful. "Comme un chef" is very good film for watching with the loved one in the nice romantic evening, it will be raise you mood, without a doubt.

I'm delighted with this movie and I'm ready to re-watching its many times. I love Jim Carrey's films for a long time and they are always raise my mood in any situation, it's like a medicine for depression and boredom that always helps. Idea of this films very interesting and funny, I'm not sure that I would be used its for myself, but I'll recommend to some my friends, they need it, exactly. It's very not ordinary and little dangerous method to be happy, but to be unhappy is more dangerous. Also, I fell in love for Zooey Deschanel's eyes, they have the rare beauty and attraction. If you are frustrated, depressed or just tired of chores you should to watch "Yes man" and you will forget your troubles at the moment.

I very love comedies 80s and particularly films by John Hughes. I was raised by them and "Easy A" is perfect representative of the really kind, funny and life-asserting teen-comedy in Hughes's style. I'm fell in love Emma Stone, she is exceptionally talented girl and the rare beauty. Remarkable director Will Gluck made very old school movie with great jokes and interesting plot, where mixed the many quotes from classic and modern movies. I'm grateful him for this film, I got the delight and I will be recommending "Easy A" to my friends and re-watching many times by myself, exactly. I was very happy back to the 80s, even if at two hours.

It's remarkable movie and not typical for the Coen brothers, in my glance. This time they brilliantly made the classic Western movie and else with Jeff "Big Lebowski" Bridges. It's very huge gift for me because I'm big fan of the brothers Coen, Jeff Bridges and "Big Lebowski" is one of my favorite film. In the "True Grit" there is everything what I love in Western movies and even more, interesting plot, charismatic characters, good guys and bad guys, shooting, rivers of rum and whiskey, adventures and terrific acting cast from thick and mustached Matt Damon, brutal Josh Brolin, unrecognizable Barry Pepper and very talented the little star Hailee Steinfeld. I got the delight with that film and recommend its everybody who likes stories about true men.

I very love remarkable director Cameron Crowe, his life-asserting movies like "Jerry Maguire", "Almost Famous", "Say Anything" and "Vanilla Sky" have changed my life and I have waited his new film eagerly. "We Bought a Zoo" is very kind and family film. It's a warm and touching story in all senses with the beautiful and talented actors as Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson, Thomas Haden Church, Elle Fanning, Patrick Fugit and lovely little stars Maggie Elizabeth Jones and Colin Ford. If you exhausted after work and want to relax and to watch something for your soul that it's optimal choice for such an evening. "We Bought a Zoo" is film that will be raising your mood and give hope for the best, absolutely exactly.

If you want to know what happening in a head of junkie under the influence of drugs but without using drugs on yourself, that this film will be very useful and interesting for you. In my opinion, it's the best film by the most not ordinary Hollywood director Terry Gilliam. I like an absolutely all his movies, they are different from each others of shapes, styles and genres, and I love them the same, but "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" is definitely the top by Terry Gilliam's directing. In this film there is also Jonny Depp's best performance, in my opinion, who played his friend Hunter S. Thompson accurate and brilliantly. It's a great comedy, drama and something else about 70s and about that devil-may-care generation. It's the one of my favorite film and I will never tiring re-watch its.

I don't tire to re-watch this great movie, I love its very much and I always find in it something fresh for myself. Its was made the really great team of the director Brian De Palma and the best actors of our times Al Pacino and Sean Penn. In this movie there is very touching song "You are so Beautiful" by Joe Cocker and it's probably one of the best romantic song that I have ever heard. I first heard its in "Carlito's Way" and I listen its until today. Brian De Palma made a lot of great films, I'm delighted with "Scarface", "The Untouchables" and "Casualties of War" but "Carlito's Way" is that film that I will take with myself on a desert island because it's perfect example of flawless directing, excellent acting and really timeless movie. Every time when I re-watch this masterpiece I hope that final will be another, but... . I hate Benny Blanco from the Bronx!!!

That's funny, but in this film i don't saw difficult women. They was absolutely normal, any ordinary man without problem can to meet with them and I don't understand why the movie has such a title. In my opinion, main disadvantage of that movie are main characters. Characters of this film are very unpleasant, they not capable even to talk with each other and to express themselves and their thought. They also absolutely don't want to be themselves and constantly trying to pretend to be someone else in order that to like to women. I was hard to watch of happening on a screen, it's so boring and lifeless. I don't recommend you feel the same in watching any movie never. Better spend your dear time with benefit.
