Top 10 worst sequels and remakes of 2013
Here are ten films that make a compelling case for why Hollywood has come down not only with severe sequelitis, but remake-itis as well.
“1913 Massacre”: Great movie about Michigan tragedy
1913 Massacre is a touching documentary that revisits the tragic events that took place in the copper mining town of Calumet in the northern tip of Michigan on Christmas Eve 1913.
“Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom” is stunning must-see
"Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom" is visually stunning, unfolding professionally within a familiar bio-pic template.
"Reaching for the Moon": Love dares speak its name
I really liked this movie, mainly because of its unusual characters based on actual historical figures.
"The Book Thief": A child looks at fascism
"The Book Thief" is not a happy movie. It's narrated by Death, though he's a trifle friendlier than usually depicted.
“Thor” sequel another hard-hitter
As superhero flicks go, this one is still pretty standard fare for the casual viewer, but that doesn't mean it's not enjoyable.
"Dallas Buyers Club": We're surprised you're even alive
Dallas Buyers Club is an uplifting morality tale that's about as good as the art of cinema gets.
Horror movies with a conscience?
The movies that follow are fantasies based on real, immediate, contemporary threats.
“In Organic We Trust” exposes falsely organic foods
Many food items claiming to be organic really are not, says Kip Pastor, who puts the U.S. food industry under a microscope in this well made, engrossing documentary.
Great outer space “Gravity” and other film pleasures
I must start with the most stunning, a 3D film that had me jumping and falling out of my seat throughout the entire exasperating journey.
