[DVD Review] Miracle at St. Anna

15 February 2009 8:11 PM, PST | JustPressPlay.net | See recent JustPressPlay news »

12.00 Normal 0 false false false En-us X-none X-none MicrosoftInternetExplorer4

Plainly speaking: I'm not a fan of Miracle at St. Anna. While I believe that Spike Lee's self-described "untold story of courage and brotherhood" deserves to be told - I don't think Spike Lee should have been the one to tell it. He shouldn't have been let anywhere near it. If you trust the dialogue spoken by the characters within, James McBride's source material was racially polarized before Spike got anywhere near it. Allowing Spike Lee to emboss it even further with his own brand just makes the film all the more intolerable to watch - ironic really, considering how forcefully Lee and McBride hammered the film's message of intolerance into our skulls with each and every frame.

Spike Lee still hasn't learned that you don't win support or - as Lee was aiming for - regret by preaching at the audience. »

Blu-Ray Review: Spike Lee’s ‘Miracle at St. Anna’ Disappoints in Every Way

11 February 2009 12:23 PM, PST | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »

Blu-Ray Rating: 1.0/5.0 Chicago – There is a great film to be made about the African-American experience during World War II. Spike Lee’s “Miracle at St. Anna” is not that film and the below average Blu-Ray of it should make this once highly-anticipated epic one of the more easily forgettable releases of the month.

Spike Lee is one of the more intriguing filmmakers alive. He’s missed the mark a few times but the man who made “Do the Right Thing,” “Malcolm X,” “Clockers,” “Get on the Bus,” “4 Little Girls,” “The Original Kings of Comedy,” “25th Hour,” “Inside Man,” and “When the Levees Broke” should be paid attention to every single time he gets in the director’s chair. Some of those are among the best films of the last twenty years, and even his previous failures felt like a director shooting for something unique and misfiring.

DVD Review: Miracle at St. Anna

9 February 2009 11:38 PM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

The first time I tried to watch the DVD for director Spike Lee's Miracle at St. Anna I fell asleep. Was I tired? Could it have been because I had already seen it? Second attempt -- disc in, hit play, fell right to sleep; fell asleep so fast, actually, I can't even remember the last scene I watched before it happened. The third attempt proved to be the winner, that is to say I made it all the way through. Unfortunately everything was coming back to me. Not only does this movie not really have a point, it is so long and self-important watching it was like listening to a dull collegiate professor lecturing on the intricacies of the Dewey Decimal System. This film has to be one of 2008's biggest, most frustrating disappointments, and the DVD hammers that home with all the subtlety of a jackhammer. Based on »

Must Watch: Red Band Trailer for Bret Easton Ellis' The Informers

14 January 2009 10:31 PM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »

Wow - I'm definitely impressed. Senator Entertainment has sent over a brand new red band trailer for Gregor Jordan's adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis' The Informers. It looks like one hell of a funky, fun, and trippy film set in 1983 Los Angeles about movie executives, rock stars, a vampire, and other quirky characters. I've even heard that the gorgeous Amber Heard is naked throughout the most of film. In addition to her, Billy Bob Thornton, Mickey Rourke, Rhys Ifans, Kim Basinger, and Winona Ryder also all star. Potentially an indie gem? Definitely, but that is yet to be seen, as this premieres at Sundance next week. Watch the red band trailer for The Informers: [flv:http://media2.firstshowing.net/firstshowing/Informers-redband-trailer.flv http://media2.firstshowing.net/firstshowing/Informers-redband-trailer.jpg 598 336] The Informers is directed Australian filmmaker Gregor Jordan, of Two Hands, Buffalo Soldiers, and Ned Kelly previously. The film is based on Bret Easton Ellis' novel of the same name and was »

Nsfw: Unrated Trailer for 'The Informers'

Senator Entertainment just sent over the unrated trailer for Gregor Jordan's The Informers which will debut at Sundance before it's New York and L.A. release on April 10. Bret Easton Ellis ("Less Than Zero" and "American Psycho") adapts his own acclaimed novel for the screen, returning to the Los Angeles of the early 1980's with a multi-strand narrative that deftly balances a vast array of characters who represent both the top of the heap (a Hollywood dream merchant, a dissolute rock star, an aging newscaster) and the bottom (a voyeuristic doorman, an amoral ex-con). Connecting all his intertwining strands are the quintessential Ellis protagonists-a group of beautiful, blonde young men and women who sleep all day and party all night, doing drugs-and one another-with abandon, never realizing that they are dancing on the edge of a volcano. Filmed with uncommon glamour and grit by acclaimed Australian director Gregor Jordan ("Ned Kelly, »

Author Bret Easton Ellis excels at a couple of things: excess, and the 80s (Less Than Zero, American Psycho). And both are front and center for The Informers, which Ellis adapted from his own novel. The movie comes from director Gregor Jordan (Ned Kelly, Buffalo Soldiers) and features Billy Bob Thornton, Mickey Rourke, Kim Basinger, Winona Ryder, Jon Foster (Ben's kid bro), Amber Heard and the late Brad Renfro. Set in 1980s Los Angeles, The Informers is "a multi-strand narrative that »
