Heath Ledger stars in this slightly offbeat take of a commoner’s quest for fame and love in Old England. Although it didn’t do that well in overall reviews, I personally found this movie to be very entertaining, full of entergy and humor and a delightfully refreshing albeit off-camber approach to… |

Think of Act of Valor as real US Naval Special Warfare come to cineplexes, not as a normal war movie. Thus the valor is certain, the acting not so much. Directed by a couple of former stuntmen and starring a bunch of active duty SEALs, it is earnest in the extreme and often wooden in its no…

This movie is flawless. Nothing about it made me wonder “why” or “what”- I just went along for the ride. The movie didn’t stress me out. It didn’t bore me. It didn’t gross me out (then again nothing does). To start, the story is extremely well executed. It flows extremely well from the beginning …
