I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you.

Disney 'Cinderella' (2015) Review

Image
Basically, warmth is slowly becoming the new cool.... Into this shifting atmosphere waltzes “Cinderella,” Disney’s dazzling live-action version of its 1950 animated classic. Other recent retellings of storybook favorites by the studio such as “ Alice in Wonderland ” and “ Maleficent ” reshaped the material for 21st century tastes, turning Lewis Carroll’s heroine into a pro-active warrior and upgrading the villainous fairy in “Sleeping Beauty” into a misunderstood victim. Even the recent “Into the Woods” featured a disillusioned Cinderella played by  Anna Kendrick . Cinderella (2015) Movie Poster                                But director  Kenneth Branagh , the Shakespearean actor who successfully launched the comic-book-inspired “ Thor ” franchise, eschews any such shadings in his story of the abused orphaned girl who wins the heart of a handsome prince. No dark themes or disturbing n...

"The future belongs to the mad" Fury Road, an Australian dystopian action film is one of the more well-known instalments of the Mad Max Franchise. The film is set in a desert wasteland in a world where civilisation has completely crashed. Food, water and gasoline is scarce and people are getting desperate to survive, fighting for necessities… with many going mad along the way. "My name is Max.

Disney "The Little Mermaid" (1998) Review

Image
Walt Disney's "The Little Mermaid" is a jolly and inventive animated fantasy - a movie that's so creative and so much fun it deserves comparison with the best Disney work of the past. It's based on the Hans Christian Andersen tale about a mermaid who falls in love with a prince, but the Disney animators have added a gallery of new supporting characters, including an octopus named Ursula who is their most satisfying villainess since the witch in " Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs ." Watching "The Little Mermaid," I began to feel that the magic of animation had been restored to us. After the early years of Walt Disney's pathfinding feature-length cartoons, we entered into a long, dark age in which frame-by-frame animation was too expensive, and even the great Disney animation team began using shortcuts. Now computers have taken the busywork out of the high-priced hands of humans, who are free to realize even the most elaborate flights...
