Michael Shannon
Reviews Featuring Michael Shannon
Diabolical CGI-assisted slapstick buddy comedy.
Big budget nonsense, which commits the fatally smug error of supposing that just about anything will acquire charm and wit merely through Will Smith's involvement. 'Bad Boys 2' is full of misfiring humour, inappropriately sadistic violence, and paddle-pool shallowness - just about its only virtue is that, though it seems to last a lifetime, it is thankfully soon forgotten.
An incredible true story unnecessarily embellished with banal fictitious details. Michael Shannon's performance as Larry Oster-Berg, some funny lines, and a great basic premise keep it moving along the road, but it needs a much better script to provide the right directions.
Watchable, provided youve got way too much time on your hands.
Dont let the title put you off this is quite a bit easier going than 'The Passion of the Christ'!
Its big, its loud, and its a bit of an all-American mess but its not quite as bad as you might expect.
Watch this gripping drama about a child molester's struggle against his own inclinations if you want to see the problem of paedophilia handled with more intelligence, sensitivity and balance than the tabloids can muster - if not, then watch it for Kevin Bacon's performance.
Tense and twisty grifter remake - but so close to the original, it's criminal.
In this prequel to all American haunted house movies, the past is just like the future.
It doesnt leave you feeling particularly optimistic about love, but Revolutionary Road is well acted and directed, and its good to see Winslet and DiCaprio together again, even like this.
It's a mess, and Megan Fox is pretty much pointless, but Jonah Hex has its moments of B-movie Western fun.
