Nur mit Dir (2002) Film-Streaming

As far as I'm concerned, very little of what happens in this glossy teen-weepie romance can be described as surprising, and even less of it feels fresh or spontaneous.. A saccharine, but fresh and PG-rated alternative to, well, Not Just Another Teen Movie.. It's an overwrought teen weepy, Terms of Endearment for the TRL crowd.. This realist fairy tale of impossible love has a fair amount of nuance and charm.. Plays like the old disease-of-the-week small-screen melodramas.. Just because A Walk to...

Bis in alle Ewigkeit (2002) Film-Streaming

Solid family entertainment, a handsomely crafted and well-acted new film version of Natalie Babbitt's classic 1975 children's book.. . There's no reason it couldn't have been infused with real feeling, instead of just a nice, tidy lesson about the continuity of life and the painfulness of growing up.. The film casts a spell that's hard to resist, and in the end has much to tell us -- however old we may be -- about life and death.. Tends to plod.. It's solid and affecting and exactly as thought-p...

Lucía und der Sex (2001) Voll Streaming

The animated movie greatly expands on the kids' book on which it's based in a clever and engaging first half. But the second half leaves a foul aftertaste. Slapdash action scenes play against dreary warnings to fear wealth and beauty.. Determined to have their cake and eat it too, writer-directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller first invite us to revel in ice cream mountains and nacho cheese fountains, then clobber us with ham-handed nutritional moralism.. It's not especially filling, but it leaves ...

Popstar auf Umwegen (2003) Streaming-

It's narratively uneven but the occasional lapses of focus are rescued by Cate Blanchett's riveting lead performance.. There's never been a better director of women than Woody Allen. Actresses in his films have earned five Oscars from 11 nominations. Cate Blanchett in "Blue Jasmine" should make it an even dozen.. Blanchett is steady as she goes, delivering one of the most exhilarating performances of the year.. . A wrenching portrait of a woman whose life has fallen apart.. Blue Jasmine ranks wi...

Plötzlich Prinzessin (2001) Film Abspielen

The Princess Diaries is a march through the swamp of recycled ugly duckling stories, with occasional pauses in the marsh of sitcom cliches and the bog of Idiot Plots.. Notions of responsibility, surrogacy, rites of passage and the value of friendship are gone through, but the highlighting of modern tropes merely serves to emphasise the film's conventionality.. The premise is promising, but writer/director Rowan Joffe seems at a loss for how to handle the material; it all eventually, like Christi...

Rapunzel - Neu verföhnt (2010) Voll Streaming

Tangled is lovely to look at, but if you're not a pre-teen girl, you may be distracted by the split ends.. It's Wolff and Rourke who have to carry the load, and for the most part they do.. Tangled is the best animated film from Disney in the past 15 years.. Burton might need to get further from blockbuster bloat in order to regain his formal mastery of kitsch. Right now his sense of comic portraiture is too easily mistakable for splatter painting.. A smart, funny, feel-good film -- from Tim Burt...

All Beauty Must Die (2010) Film-Streaming

Don't look for gravity-bound logic here. This is cartoon fantasy, not a literal translation, although in its way it stays pretty close to Stevenson's characters and storyline.. It's a pretty picture or would be if the ominous music and camera position didn't seem directed at the man portentously lurking in the background.. "All Good Things" has the eerie power of a nightmare.. You watch it wanting to scurry off to read accounts of the real thing, rather than being caught up in the filmmaking.. A...

Der Plan (2011) Online-Streaming-

A smart, stylish thriller that melds science fiction, romance and Hitchcock-ian intrigue with surprising ease.. Whether running or kissing or running and kissing (well, almost), Mr. Damon and Ms. Blunt turn romance into a palpable race.. Cradled in Damon's solidly reliable hands, even a movie as extravagantly silly as this one gains heft and credibility, an impressive accomplishment when you consider that the entire plot revolves around magic notebooks and spellbinding hats.. Easily one of the b...

Buddy - Der Weihnachtself (2003) Online-Streaming-

Falls short of a laugh riot but proves generally pleasing nonetheless.. Mr. Rush can't fly far on Mr. Tornatore's dialogue and workmanlike plotting, and Sylvia Hoeks, as Claire, doesn't bring a corresponding energy.. Sure, Elf feels a little too feel-good at the end, but what do you expect? It's a Christmas movie! Anything else would be the cinematic equivalent of finding coal in your stocking.. The movie's an eyeful, though, thanks to the intricate production design and many artworks on display...

Maleficent - Die dunkle Fee (2014) Wiedergabe Von Streaming-

A keeper of a film, quietly dazzling. Every generation deserves its own version of Peter Pan. Until the next one arrives in 2019 or so, this one will do nicely.. Jonze encourages our awe at the mysteries of life even if they arrive in the form of technology.. It's an odd, sad love story, combined with a meditation on technology as an accelerator of social loneliness. Not a small part of it seems to be an allegory of lonely guys and their fear of women.. If, as you go into the theater, you hear p...

Peter Pan (2003) Online-Streaming-

The best things in the movie aren't transporting or diverting but merely incite intellectual recognition: Yes. OK. That's amusing.. You've heard of fables for our time? "Her" is a fable for the near future.. These ingredients are digitally present and correct, but Hogan fails to inject much excitement into the many boisterous action sequences.. Jonze encourages our awe at the mysteries of life even if they arrive in the form of technology.. In this incarnation, Peter is imbued with a greater deg...

Ella - Verflixt & zauberhaft (2004) Streaming-

An overcalculated fusion of Shrek and The Princess Bride with all the smarts replaced by smartass.. More slog than romp, The Other Boleyn Girl tells the salacious story of two hot blue bloods who ran amok and partly unclothed in the court of Henry VIII.. Unofficially, National Lampoon's Van Wilder is Son of Animal House. Officially, it is twice as bestial but half as funny.. This is the sort of low-grade dreck that usually goes straight to video --with a lousy script, inept direction, pathetic a...

The Village - Das Dorf (2004) Streaming-

Like all great love stories, Ang Lee's is one of tragic romance, strongly acted by Heath Ledger as the most buttoned-up of cowboys, and Michelle Williams as his betrayed and enraged wife.. Dangerously dour.. "The Book of Life" may use state-of-the-art animation, but it derives its strength from the wisdom of antiquity. It only looks new, but it's as old as life (and death) itself.. A sweeping, solemn, self-serious chronicle of their relationship over several decades.. Lee has taken a story of ga...

Cinderella Story (2004) Wiedergabe Von Streaming-

A masterpiece of genre film-making, really worth to watch.. Give this wannabe Cinderella a big Bibbitti Bobbitti Boo.. Let me get quickly to the word that best describes this movie. It is horrible.. This witless little comedy takes the classic fairy tale and turns it into a Hilary Duff vehicle about popularity, e-mail and cell phones at a San Fernando Valley high school.. Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. It's not a terrible movie, just a disappointingly ...

Plötzlich Prinzessin 2 (2004) Streaming-

There's not enough story in it to fill a shoebox.. The pic uses the polish of faux-sophistication and the cliched old-man/nubile-woman fantasy to distract viewers from dissecting the plot.. Funny and intelligently made, a film for kids and adults that's both sweet and sardonic.. A movie made by people who really have their thinking caps on.. . The movie is undeniably cute. But it's also often a gooey mess, with a plot that manages to be both wearisome and preposterous (to grown-ups, that is).. ....

The animated movie greatly expands on the kids' book on which it's based in a clever and engaging first half. But the second half leaves a foul aftertaste. Slapdash action scenes play against dreary warnings to fear wealth and beauty.. So what could be better than an endless supply of jellybeans and ice cream? Only a multiplex permanently stocked with smart, sweetly silly family films like this one.. . If you ever thought a marshmallow might make a fine crispy torch, or you've wondered what it w...

Manolo und das Buch des Lebens (2014) Beobachten Film

Like these indelible cowboys, you, too, may find it impossible not to succumb to the powerful, quiet greatness that is Brokeback Mountain.. The movie has a universal quality because it tells a story of unfulfilled lives and roots it in the well-observed specifics of a vanishing Western culture.. The approach is dry as the Wyoming landscape, and while it occasionally threatens to pull the film out of shape, it's still the right one for these men.. This Pixar knockoff from 20th Century Fox is more...

This film is entirely harmless. It's utterly forgettable.. In this sweet comedy for the crowd that has outgrown The Little Mermaid, two likable pals try to help a mermaid find love and learn how to use her feet properly.. Girls will know Aquamarine is unique because it's the rare movie that fiercely respects the altruistic loyalty that bonds girls to one another.. Both Roberts and Levesque are better known for their recording careers than their acting, and while they have regular-girl presence, ...
