Recommended Based on the 1982 French graphic novel Transperceneige , director Bong Joon-ho's Snowpiercer (2013) serves up a thinly-veiled slice of post-apocalyptic social commentary. After a failed attempt to combat global warming causes a new Ice Age, humanity's survivors are placed inside a massive train segmented by social classes
Rent It Content: If movies have taught us anything, it's that you don't take a bag of money you happen to come across, especially when the amount is in the hundreds of thousands, because come on… it HAS to belong to corrupt people that are willing to do anything to get it back, only bad things come of it. Greed is the moral of Good People , an ultimately disappointing thriller film based off …
Recommended The Movie: 1981's True Confessions is one of those many films that has tremendous talent involved (both behind and in front of the camera), was pretty well-received upon release (though not exactly a hit), and still has managed to drift into obscurity. It's not a lost masterpiece, but True Confessions is a welcome time capsule of an era where character-driven dramas could still be …
Highly Recommended The Movies: The eternally gorgeous Audrey Hepburn may not have been the most versatile of movie stars, but she certainly had “It” – that elusive quality known as charisma. Arriving on the scene as a sophisticated waif in a sea of voluptuous curves, she charmed audiences with a cultured, genial image full of inherent contradictions

The filmmaking of Stone isundoubtedly political in nature and he is one to create a variety ofcinematicportraits with a keen sensibility unlike most other filmmakers
Highly Recommended The Movie: As far as enjoyment and appreciation of Michael Moore's films go, it pays to approach them as visual essays rather than completely objective documentaries. They are obviously out to make a point, everything from the fact that Moore narrates his own documentaries with a deft ear for wit and irony, as well as some of the clever editing choices made in order to bring …
DVD Talk Collector Series “You're so strange…what goes on in that mind of yours? ” Hypnotically creepy, one of the best made-for-TV movies of the 1970s–and that's saying something from that golden age of the form–has finally arrived on DVD.
Rent It The Collection: Although this newly released DVD set from stand-up comic and actor Richard Lewis has been titled Bundle of Nerves , it might have been more appropriate to call it Bundle of Crap I Found Lying Around My House .
