The Pianist (2 Discs)
»rank: 834
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:Grand gagnant de la course aux récompenses de l'année 2003, Le Pianiste de Roman Polanski méritait amplement sa palme d'or, ses trois oscars et ses sept césars. Adapté de l'autobiographie de Wladyslaw Szpilman, ce film empreint d'une grande dignité raconte la lutte pour sa survie d'un pianiste juif, en Pologne, pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Polanski, lui-même juif, a attendu des années avant d'aborder ce sujet douloureux. Avec un classicisme tout en retenue, loin de la dramatisation excessive, le cinéaste au passé sulfureux tente ici d'exorciser des démons ...

King Kong (Deluxe Extended Edition) (3DVD)
»rank: 10228
Chroniques et points de vue: : Movies don't come any bigger than Peter Jackson's King Kong, a three-hour remake of the 1933 classic that marries breathtaking visual prowess with a surprising emotional depth. Expanding on the original story of the blonde beauty and the beast who falls for her, Jackson creates a movie spectacle that matches his Lord of the Rings films and even at times evokes their fantasy world while celebrating the glory of '30s Hollywood. Naomi Watts stars as Ann Darrow, a vaudeville actress down on her luck in Depression-era New ...

Angels in the Outfield (Widescreen)
»rank: 10249
Chroniques et points de vue:From :This effects-heavy, 1994 remake of the 1951 film starring Janet Leigh and Keenan Wynn is all computer-generated pizzazz, with none of the charm or imagination of the original. Aimed squarely at children this time, the story focuses on a boy who gets some divine intervention on behalf of his favorite ball club. Christopher Lloyd plays the head angel, and Danny Glover is good as the team's manager, but the real star of the film--for better or worse--is the software that makes a glowing, celestial presence on the ...

The Last Time I Committed Suicide
»rank: 2985
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Thomas Jane stars as Beat writer and Jack Kerouac-crony Neal Cassady, in a promising film that quickly flops. Based on a letter Cassady wrote to Kerouac, the highly stylized film by Stephen Kay pretty much follows the former around as he does not much of anything at all. Keanu Reeves is incomprehensible as a friend of Cassady, and Kay's jazzy, angular, colliding style does nothing to illuminate the Beat icon's all-important internal life. lf you're new to the whole Kerouac-Cassady-Beat world, this is not a good first ...

Summer of Sam (Widescreen)
»rank: 14858
Chroniques et points de vue:From :lt's important to note that Spike Lee's drama is not titled Son of Sam. Summer of Sam doesn't chronicle the killer as much as the times: the blistering hot summer of 1977 when the Big Apple's psyche was taken hostage by the lone gunman. We spot the killer (Michael Badalucco) in his mad ramblings, but the film centers on two friends from the Bronx: Vinny and Ritchie (John Leguizamo, Adrien Brody). Vinny and his wife, Dionna (Mira Sorvino), bury a bad marriage (he cheats at a drop ...
