The Hunger Games (2012) Online Streaming

<p>The film shows precious little hunger and no sense of game.. Well-paced, well-directed and extremely well acted entertainment.. Watching The Hunger Games, I was struck both by how slickly Ross hit his marks and how many opportunities he was missing to take the film to the next level -- to make it more shocking, lyrical, crazy, daring.. An intriguing premise never finds a dramatic pulse in "The Keeping Room," a self-consciously artsy depiction of female grit during the final days of the Civil War... <div id="rmore">1392170</div></p>

The Departed (2006) Full Movie Streaming

<p>Even when Eastwood and Robertson, pleasant enough company, threaten to float off the screen, "The Longest Ride" glides along and delivers its reheated comfort food by the ton.. It tries to bridge the gap between pop culture and cultural elitism, between high art and the common commodity that everyone else buys tickets to see. A worthy goal, but it results in a movie that has none of the virtues of either.. You'll have to go back to GoodFellas to find a Marty movie this fun, this enamored of lang... <div id="rmore">0407887</div></p>

Foxcatcher (2014) Play Movie

<p>It's too bad then that the film...doesn't live up to Carell's memorable performance. As chilly as du Pont's mansion on a winter's night, Foxcatcher never quite comes together.. Despite the fun of the parties, the intrigue of the legal wranglings and the humour of the dialogue, Fincher and Sorkin never let us forget that we're complicit in their story (or at least 500 million of us are).. At its core, "Foxcatcher" grapples, bluntly, with the subjects of class and money, and what some people do wh... <div id="rmore">1100089</div></p>

Black Swan (2010) Full Movie Streaming

<p>If one of the moral responsibilities of the movies is to put you in places where you'd never go and live lives you'd never live, then City of God is great moviemaking.. This is the sort of film that Oscar generally ignores come awards season. It shouldn't. Crazy Stupid Love is a crazy smart film.. The performances, many from non-pros, are terrific.. Portman hasn't been this good since her early performances in The Professional and Heat, and is deservedly attracting intense Oscar buzz. Kunis brin... <div id="rmore">0947798</div></p>

Locke (2013) Play Streaming

<p>The conceit is riveting at first because Knight forgoes any backstory or exposition, though as the foreman's plight becomes clear, the tension quickly dissipates.. Shot in just eight nights using a car mounted with three cameras, "Locke" is a terrific example of resourceful, inventive filmmaking.. What movies so often relegate to the margins of pornography or sophomoric titillation is radically redefined here, stripped of its erotic charge and depicted as a numbing erasure of life and emotion.. ... <div id="rmore">2692904</div></p>

American Heist (2014) Watch Streaming

<p>[A] graphic and spontaneous portrait of a spiraling sex addict.. You don't just watch Shame: You feel it, too.. Shame is something of a dirty date that leaves you wondering what went wrong.. "Shame" is all about weakness and compulsion. It's not about the joy of sex. It's about the utter despair it can't conceal.. Slick but derivative and forgettable on all levels.. There's no easy way to shake off Shame. It gets in your head.. Yes, this is an affecting picture that leaves the viewer as wrung ou... <div id="rmore">2923316</div></p>

I Origins (2014) Watch Full Movie

<p>Leapin' lizards! The evergreen Broadway musical "Annie'' strays far from its Depression-era roots with truly dismaying results in this crass, charmless, tineared and lead-footed update.. Considering this musical has its roots in Depression-era American, Gluck's contemporary take on the material is eerily lacking in observations about the rich/poor divide in this country.. A movie that coasts on a disturbing greed-is-good vibe. And one that looks strangely cheap doing it.. The film ends with an a... <div id="rmore">2884206</div></p>
