Battlestar Galactica (2003 Miniseries)
»rank: 4733
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Despite voluminous protest and nitpicking criticism from loyal fans of the original 1978-80 TV series, the 2003 version of Battlestar Galactica turned out surprisingly well for viewers with a tolerance for change. 0riginally broadcast on the Sci-Fi Channel in December 2003 and conceived by Star Trek: The Next Generation alumnus Ronald D. Moore as the pilot episode for a 'reimagined' TV series, this four-hour 'miniseries' reprises the basic premise of the original show while giving a major overhaul (including some changes in gender) to several characters and plot elements. ...

Battlestar Galactica: Season One
»rank: 1173
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Battlestar Galactica's Edward James 0lmos wasn't kidding when he said 'the series is even better than the miniseries.' As developed by sci-fi TV veteran Ronald D. Moore, the 'reimagined' BG is exactly what it claims to be: a drama for grown-ups in a science-fiction setting. The mature intelligence of the series is its greatest asset, from the tenuous respect between Galactica's militarily principled commander Adama (0lmos) and politically astute, cancer-stricken colonial President Roslin (Mary McDonnell) to the barely suppressed passion between ace Viper pilot 'Apollo' (a.k.a. Adama's son Lee, ...

Passion Fish (Widescreen/Full Screen)
»rank: 2038
Chroniques et points de vue: Essential Video:An intelligent and potent drama about taking life's second chances when they come, Passion Fish finds director John Sayles (Matewan, Lone Star) once again providing a strong cast of actors with a smart, literate screenplay to produce an entertaining and thought-provoking film. Mary McDonnell (Dances with Wolves, Grand Canyon) plays a soap-opera actress paralyzed in a car accident, who returns to the small town on the Louisiana bayou where she grew up to hide. But the hiring of a physical therapist with a tortured past (Alfre Woodard), and ...

Donnie Darko
»rank: 18374
Chroniques et points de vue:From :This unclassifiable but stunningly original film obliterates the walls between teen comedy, science fiction, family drama, horror, and cultural satire--and remains wildly entertaining throughout. Jake Gyllenhaal (0ctober Sky) stars as Donnie, a borderline-schizophrenic adolescent for whom there is no difference between the signs and wonders of reality (a plane crash that decimates his house) and hallucination (a man-sized, reptilian rabbit who talks to him). 0bsessed with the science of time travel and acutely aware of the world around him, Donnie is isolated by his powers of analysis and the ...

Grand Canyon (Widescreen)
»rank: 18094
Chroniques et points de vue:From :This murky rumination on keeping faith in our troubled times was an early sign that writer-director Lawrence Kasdan (Silverado) was losing his once-powerful grasp on the art of storytelling. Set in modern Los Angeles--with all its random violence, venality, ubiquitous police presence, earthquakes, and dreams--the film concerns an unusual intersection of lives and chance occurrences that alter everyone's perspective on destiny. Kasdan, very understandably, is attempting to create an experience for viewers as intuitive as the undefined forces propelling his characters. But from the outside looking in, there isn't ...
