Everything starts like a "normal" drama. Carol (Eileen Davies) does not like Chris (Steve Oram) for some reasons. That's why, when her daughter Tina (Alice Lowe) decides to go on a romantic trip with him, Carol does not seem agree with the idea. But they have been a good couple and they have prepared for the trip, so they still execute the plan anyway. read more �

A Guest Post by Carly Ledbetter. When it comes to movies that are "based on real events," simply put, the facts sometimes get twisted around for the movie. But, in the case of The Bling Ring , the story is about as real as it gets. Sofia Coppola's new film, The Bling Ring, is based on the Vanity Fair article, "The Suspects Wore Louboutins" by Nancy Jo Sales. The article itself is centered on real-life events that happened in 2008 and 2009 in Los Angeles, when a group of celebrity-obsessed teenagers began robbing celebrity homes. read more �

The two are different, at least for me. Some movies I consider the best sometimes are not the ones I consider my favorites, and vice versa. You can check My Favorite Films page, and you will find that not all (or even none) of them achieved my 5-star rating. I am gonna share my opinion about this topic�again, just based on my opinion�and, of course, you�re free to share your opinion too in the comment box. read more �

First I have to admit that I am a total beginner who spent not a great deal of my time watching newly coming movies, so until now I haven�t watched a significant amount of movies. I even missed lots of movies in this summer so probably I�m gonna tight up my watching schedule around the end of this year. LOL. read more �

Never heard of Derek Cianfrance before this, even with his popular "Blue Valentine" . Some people consider "The Place Beyond the Pines" as (arguably) one of the earliest Oscar contenders, although for me it's a pure exaggeration. This is a good film, so good that I was about to give it my precious 4.5 stars before I finally rethink about it. But, of course, this is a rich-valued gem everyone should see this year. read more �

I have never predicted that �Trance� can do more than I expected. It�s been so long for me not seeing such a twisting, un-predictable, multi-layered crime-thriller like this one. I didn�t keep good track on Danny Boyle �s filmography but I�m sure that he is also the one who turns the great story into such a tidy, chic presentation. I just think that this is the movie every crime-thriller lover should see. Read more to understand why. read more �
