Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
Nekki has announced that the forthcoming gun fu game, SPINE, will receive a movie adaptation to expand the franchise.
I never really liked Taxi Driver - I've seen it but it bored the hell out of me. Maybe it is time to see a remake of this source material?
This just looks like a dream marriage... the eye of Scorsese and the messed up mind of Von Trier will make the ultimate movie geek film that will be hated by the rest of the general public.
I completely agree gman. In this case, screw the general public. Anytime Scorsese's been challenged to produce great, powerful cinema, he's delivered. Frankly, anytime he's working on a new film project, I'm interested. The combination of him and LVT, at least on paper, is tantalizing to film geeks like myself.
I do love Scorsese films but I have to agree with Crazay on one things....I never liked Taxi either...sorry guys.
