INTO THE ABYSS review by John Delia

I’m not really fond of evaluating films based on political questions, religious beliefs or social values so with Into the Abyss my review will be short and sweet. The film puts the capital punishment question of shall we put a murderer to death even if we know he did the killing? What gets left out of the film however is the alternative; shall we torture the person the rest of his life by keeping him alive in a prison cell? Although Director Werner Herzog claims the film is not about the death penalty, he lets his audience be the judge.

THE SKIN I LIVE IN review by John Delia

This film gets so incredible that it’s perfect for mainstream and fans of the “bizarre” alike. It’s called The Skin I Live In and if you use your imagination and accept it for face value you will be thoroughly entertained. It’s not The Bride of Frankenstein, but revenge has never been sweeter.

MY WEEK WITH MARILYN, review by John Delia Jr.

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to meet someone you admire very much and this someone is the rage of the whole world? Most everyone has had visions of meeting some famous person that they idol, but what you see in My Week With Marilyn will bring those wonders alive. It’s a true story that makes me happy to see her come alive again on the screen.

THE MUPPETS, review by Susan Phillips Delia

I grew up watching The Muppet Show on television every week and the new movie The Muppets has all the same characters as the program. The show hasn’t been around for a very long time so it was great to see the old gang getting back together. If your children like a lot of silliness and some lessons to be learned in a fun way, then I recommend taking them to see The Muppets.

Director Martin Scorsese takes his audience on a magical ride through a Paris train station in the adventurous tale Hugo. Graced with an amazing cast that makes his wonderful characters come alive, it’s an enchanting production.

BREAKING DAWN, review by John M. Delia Jr

Kristen Stewart does an excellent job with her most difficult part of the series and displays much better expression throughout the story. The romantic connections throughout the series come to a climax, with Bella and Edward’s wedding. Her relationship with Jacob becomes stressed and the challenge to keep the bond between them strengthens when her pregnancy becomes life threatening.

LIKE CRAZY, review by John Delia

How to screw up your life without really trying seems to be the theme of the film Like Crazy an inconceivable little film that’s poorly written and delivered. Even with heartthrobs Anton Yelchin and Felicity Jones, the unlikely plot just kills any chance for a dramatic winner.

MELANCHOLIA, review by John Delia

The film Melancholia by writer and director Lars von Trier stimulates the artistic part of the brain with sprawling landscape images, ominous tableaus and threatening visuals of a drifting planet. The film moves along playing out like the definition of its title. Melancholia: a mental condition and especially a manic-depressive condition characterized by extreme depression, bodily complaints, and often hallucinations and delusions.

BREAKING DAWN, review by John Delia

Well the Twilight saga has finally reached its ebb with the first half of Breaking Dawn that opens this weekend in theaters around the world. Certainly expected to be earth shaking due to millions of young girls and twenty-something’s rushing to the box-office to get a look at semi-nude Robert Pattenson making love to his comely co-star Kristin Stewart. It’s all about the look and feel of the film that makes this one a winner.

J. EDGAR reviewed by John Delia

The interesting and historical J. Edgar has reached local movie theaters with very good performances by Leonardo DiCaprio, Naomi Watts and Judi Dench. The film has a few flaws, but it does give a good account of the man who was the first director of the FBI.
