’the lookout’ is so refreshingly straightforward that at first you may not know what to make of it .
writes stephanie zacharek at salon . she’s very fond of the film , comparing it to
a well - made garment turned inside - out : the structure , the dialogue , the characters — these aren’t just part of the movie . they are the movie .
ella taylor at the la weekly speculates on what the film would have been like in the hands of one of the other directors who’d been attached to the long - gestating project :
the tomatometer score — based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics — is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans . it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .

the lookout ' s thriller elements could stand to be more surprising , but they ' re ultimately in service of a better understanding of the characters . usually , it ' s the other way around .
frank’s film isn’t without its diversionary pleasures , particularly daniels . but parts of the film feel cobbled together from christopher nolan’s first two films — the theft - con of following and the memory - jarring of memento . what’s worse , chris’ disease doesn’t wind up playing that much of a role in the larger story : he could have been just some random shy kid plucked by burglars to be the lookout , or he could never have been in the accident at all . it’s as if the film had a good idea but didn’t know where to go with it . sadly , the same goes for frank .

the movie itself is fairly straightforward . why this was added is anyone ' s guess . . . probably trying to cash in on the similarities between the main characters of this film and memento .
in the film handler ' s movie reviews forum . since the movie has been available on dvd and blu - ray for several months , this review thread is getting started in the afterlife forum .
this is incredibly entertaining and solid piece of film making , by scott frank . the film travels on a road that its laid out for the audience to see steps ahead , but that never matters , b / c you are constantly in suspense over what will happen to the incredibly well drawn characters in the film . frank also shows tons of directorial flair to accompany his writing prowess . the whole cast was amazing , matthew goode is completely unrecognizable and is perfect in the film . jeff daniels again dons a beard and steals his scenes , every line of his dialog either makes you laugh , think or just compels the movie forward , and joseph gordon levitt again proves why he is capable of being one of the next great movie stars . go see this movie and tell your friends to do the same . this is the kind of film hollywood should be making ,
a taut thriller with great performances , but nothing about ' the lookout ' is extraordinarily memorable or wholly unique . a good script and a decent film , but there is something all too familiar and unoriginal about it , as if its been done before . we ' ve all seen thrillers like this time and time again .

and armond white at the new york press is more so , sighing that
the lookout is so fatuously contrived it is the first movie that actually made me pine for the loss of robert altman ; fearing weâ€™ll never see real - life observation on the screen again ,
and adding in typically combative fashion that
[ t ] t takes a highly naive , cynical performerâ€”or a doltish film criticâ€”to find this nonsense interesting or surprising .
j . hoberman at the village voice digs up the paper’s original coverage of the film , a blurb

( hoberman himself ) . he adds :
at slant , ed gonzalez declares that
what distinguishes killer of sheep from films like do the right thing and clockers is its absence of malice despite its acknowledgment of the oppressive forces of a white capitalist society . music plays an important role in the film . but while burnett’s musical choices often address the plight of black people in america , the music is drunk on hope and reinforces the joy of burnett’s sad images .
chris wisniewski at indiewire is reluctant to heap more praise on the film and overraise expectations ,
not that it doesn’t deserve it , but because the film’s brilliance is so singular and modest .
lisa schwarzbaum at entertainment weekly calls the film
one of those marvels of original moviemaking that keeps hope of artistic independence alive .

those words are intoned in voice - over by chris pratt ( joseph gordon - levitt ) , a brain - damaged bank janitor who narrates the screenwriter scott frank ’s directorial debut , the midwestern crime drama “the lookout . ” they’re catch phrases learned in therapy , designed to help chris regain the sense of chronology he lost in a car accident . but they also acknowledge that “the lookout” is a new version of a very old story : a nobody falls in with scuzzball crooks who make him feel like somebody .

for the most part the movie has a very film - like look it . the imagery has a fair amount of grain in it , some of which may have been added in post production . some of the grain looked like noise from iso gain being cranked up . little bits of red and green noise popping up in the blacks . real film grain tends to have a monochromatic look to it .

the filmmaker describes some harrowing moments in the making of her 1993 documentary of the oka crisis .
mr . frank’s screenplay for “the lookout” was long considered one of hollywood’s great unproduced scripts . the end product doesn’t justify that buildup . some of the minor characters are thinly drawn ( particularly luvlee , who never manifests the femme fatale qualities her plot function seems to require ) . and chris’s last - act conversion from sad - sack patsy to devious score - settler is not persuasive . still , there’s a lot to like here , and the film’s bleak setting and empathetic tone add interest to what could have been a by - the - numbers affair .
scott frank ' s writing credits include such films as get shorty , out of sight and minority report . his script for the lookout had sam mendes attached to it , but he went on to direct revolutionary road instead . the script then made it ' s way to david fincer who hadn ' t directed anything since 2002 , but again the director dropped the project for another film , in this case it was zodiac . finally with fincher leaving the project , frank decided to make his directorial debut with his own script .

after the film , aff invited two additional speakers to the stage — robby soave from reason , montz , ari cohn from fire — along with rob . they examined trends in censorship , protesting , and assessed the impact of sjw culture . aff members and friends then had the opportunity to converse with the panel members .
a mentally impaired young man is drawn into a heist in the lookout . chris pratt ( joseph gordon - levitt ) may appear normal , but a car accident has left him with severe memory problems , making him dependent on his notebook and his blind roommate lewis ( jeff daniels ) . smarmy crook gary ( matthew goode ) uses sexy sidekick luvlee ( isla fisher ) to persuade chris to play lookout when he robs the bank chris works at . but little goes to plan in this smart , gripping crime thriller .
vet scriptwriter scott frank makes a more - than - promising debut as a feature helmer with “ the lookout , ” a stealthy neo - noir drama that isn’t afraid to take its time developing characters on the way to the payoff of a neatly designed caper scenario . set for a march 30 domestic rollout , pic could conceivably play even better in european markets where auds are traditionally more receptive to such muted , moody fare . even so , favorable reviews and enthusiastic word of mouth could generate fair - to - good theatrical biz before “ the lookout ” looks at a long homevid shelf life .
with its country music characterizations and its wintry panoramas ( by the snow specialist alar kivilo , who also shot “a simple plan” ) “the lookout” feels less like a modern film noir than a social drama with noir trappings . several major characters live with mental or physical afflictions ( even gary , who carries the go - to accessory of modern screen goons , an inhaler ) . the potential haul is pocket change compared to the amounts bandied about in jerry bruckheimer epics , and some of the participants seem as though they would back out if they sensed there was another quick way to improve their social station .
if i had known the calibre of cast that the lookout contained , i would have watched this years ago . those that , inexplicably , are regular readers of my reviews on letterboxd will know that i do like a good cast . i love a big cast with lots of great actors in it and they don ' t even necessarily have to be doing much . there are loads of people in this film that i ' m just happy to see again .

a smart , fast - paced , tautly crafted psychological noir crime thriller , the lookout marks a soaring directorial debut from acclaimed writer scott frank , with slick cinematography and direction , a sharp script chock - full of well - written dialogue , complex and genuinely interesting characters , superb performances throughout , and pulse - pounding suspense .
experience – understanding the capabilities and limitations of the aircraft and camera are key to “getting the shot” . our experienced aircrew and well - equipped aircraft are comfortable working either side of the camera . starting on the ground , we work with the production team through all stages of the aerial production process to ensure that the shots deliver exactly as envisioned .

the ar shorts festival showcases short films made by arkansas residents , from professionals to hobbyists and beginners . each film is 10 minutes or less , and the festival is segmented into “e for everyone” at 5pm , and “mature audiences” beginning at 8pm . before each screening , there will be a cash bar and reception .
this documentary from martin duckworth features young adults from two distinct winnipeg neighbourhoods on either side of the red river who struggle to overcome geographical and cultural barriers . high school students from the predominantly aboriginal north end and their peers from the francophone district of st . boniface work together to produce a play on the origins of the métis . their collaboration raises questions about how these youths foresee their role and place within their respective communities and how these minority communities co - exist with the predominant culture . the film also tackles issues of intolerance , racism and discrimination .
the streamlined storytelling trims almost all of the fat ( save for the superfluous romance ) , making this an effective crime drama and character piece .

comes up with such a moody method assemblage of twitches , tics , and guilty memento mannerisms that he’s not much fun to watch .
nick pinkerton at indiewire is scornful :
in retrospect , it can be seen that the two great independent features of the late ’70s were killer of sheep and eraserhead . perhaps when someone writes the reception history of american independent cinema , it will be explained how and when killer of sheepâ€”which had its original screenings at museums and underground showcasesâ€”came to be considered not just a good but a great movie , placed on the library of congress’s national film registry in 1990 .

rich in dollars , poor in sense : before the events of the movie , chris was this , driving with the lights off in a unlit highway .
the lookout
marks academy award ( r ) - nominated screenwriter scott frank ' s (
out of sight
) , directorial debut . the intelligent crime drama is centered around chris , a once promising high school athlete whose life is turned upside down following a tragic accident . as he tries to maintain a normal life , he takes a job as a janitor at a bank where he ultimately finds himself caught up in a planned heist .
the heist scene itself , two - thirds of the way through the film , is the first time frank actually induces any of the scenes with a modicum of tension , and the film stops spinning its wheels in the mud and starts to move forward . a resulting gunfight explodes with the kind of frenetic action that steven spielberg brought to frank’s screenplay in minority report , and it’s good to see that frank at least knows how to engineer a suspenseful sequence , even if he never avails himself of the talent more than once in 100 minutes . the british - born goode is completely believable as a midwestern thug , and even imbues gary with a ( very ) small amount of charm . fisher doesn’t have much more to do than walk around half - dressed and disappear when frank runs out of things for her to say , but she’s still got this bubbly verve that makes the character appealing . gordon - levitt , who was so wonderful in brick , also does a good job rocketing between chris’ alternate moods of sour aloofness and a longing to be accepted : the look on his face when he thinks about luvlee is almost uncomfortably honest .
suffering from memory problems due to a head injury caused by a car crash in which he killed his friends , chris ( joseph gordon - levitt ) is a classic crime stooge , ripe for exploitation by a gang of bank robbers . although the characters are intriguingly off - centre , the film would be better if it concentrated on pulp atmosphere rather than indie credibility .

killer of sheep
: charles burnett ‘s legendary 1977 student film , a portrait of a family getting by in watts , finally comes to theaters in a restored 35mm print , and sets the critical community thumbing through its thesauri for appropriate superlatives .
i think the writer and filmmaker michael tolkin was right when he said that if ‘killer of sheep’ had been made 20 years earlier in italian , it would be dissected and argued over and memorized in every film - school classroom ,
muses andrew o’hehir at salon .
but the world burnett captures on the streets of watts , circa 1976 — this was his thesis film at ucla , shot on weekends , over the course of a year , for about $ 10 , 000 — is at least as distant to most contemporary viewers as the postwar slums of rome or naples .
[ t ] here is more to neo - realism than formalist gestures ; context counts too , and much like the characters in rossellini â€™s ‘open city , ’ stan and his family are casualties of war ,
adds manohla dargis at the new york times .
this may be mr . burnettâ€™s most radical truth - telling . in ‘killer of sheep , ’ the charactersâ€™ identities as african - americans are material and existential givens , while poverty is the equal - opportunity destroyer .
the film shows montz returning to campus to reflect on the brown university he knew as an undergraduate in the early 2000s . his experience at brown included endless campus debates . unfortunately , montz found during his return that brown students have “an addiction to indignation . ” if you do not share the same opinion as other brown students , you will not have a voice . student , professors , and guests at brown university were protested and shouted down by social justice warriors ( sjws ) .
the card in chris ' s wallet that explains his condition allows him to get away from a cop pulling him over while chris has the money from the robbery in his trunk .
only a flesh wound : subverted . even though spargo comments that the bullet he took from the robbery ' went right through ' , his health gets progressively worse until the climax .

the movie was shot electronically using the panavision genesis system ( which records in 1080p hd ) . the commentary track discusses the genesis system and tests of other formats . they liked 35mm anamorphic the most , but said it wasn ' t practical for their smaller sets and cramped shooting environments . i thought that was pretty odd , since they cropped the movie to 2 . 39 : 1 anyway .

though james newton howard \ ' s scores are rarely dominated by piano - like rachel portman ( the cider house rules ) or some john williams ( angela \ ' s ashes ) - the piano elements and motifs are one of my favorite parts about howard \ ' s work . these cues are usually simple and subtle , often as an undercurrent melody to strings - the interpreter \ ' s
end credits
- or to a woodwind as in
eptesicus
from batman begins ; they may be the foreground or just for sound color like
goodbyes
and
maddy & archer

no new release made much noise at the box office this weekend and , even with the holdovers holding on better than expected , the overall box office still slipped to $ 124 million . that ' s roughly 3 % lower than last weekend , but still 8 % higher than the same weekend last year . hopefully the new releases going 0 for 4 this weekend is a momentary blip and not a sign of weakness in the marketplace .
as a whole , this score is rhythmic and often upbeat . the instrumentation is dominated by acoustic guitar and light percussion , with piano and sparing electronics mixed through . it does not utilize an orchestra like howard \ ' s dinosaur and hidalgo , nor the powerful chorus of
tarawa
from snow falling on cedars . it opens with the track
i wake up
with just the acoustic guitar , which is later joined by simple percussion : it conveys the sense of motion but not in the action - score sense , and you almost find yourself tapping along with it . this instrumentation continues through the early tracks , the melody becoming more complex in
the night janitor
and taking on a sense of the western in
casing the bank .
the pace slows with a different piano motif in
money is power
and begins to build tension through heavier percussion and chords in
heist , pt . 2 .
start at the end
is upbeat again , lighter but maintaining some of the tension , which ultimately seems to resolve with the slow piano motif in
to be forgiven .
it ' s very spanish - sounding , in the tradition of de falla , halffter ' s teacher , but stravinsky was also a strong influence , and the piece is rife with hispanic - flavored rite of spring - isms . fitz - gerald and the frankfurt radio symphony turn in a rambunctious and technically polished account of the score , and the sound is clean and vivid .

whoever has the money has the power . i think the best part of this movie is joseph gordon levitt , technically a “nobody” after basically being the kid everyone remembered from 3rd rock from the sun ( and 2 years before his breakout in gi joe and 500 days of summer ) . i think what makes the movie work is how layered a performance jgl gives . he’s essentially in a “perfect” life , with a well off family and then one day a fatal accident leaves him brain damaged . it turns like the silver linings playbook meets memento after that . overall , it’s a small little movie that gets predictable as it unravels , but it works as a character study , similar to memento .

in sam mendes â€™ hands , the movie would have been too clever and referential by half , while david fincher would have sucked the warmth out of it . either of those directors would have made shorter , snappier work of the heist than does frank , who does a perfectly competent , if unremarkable , job .
is a genuinely suspenseful and affecting noir due to the great ensemble cast and their complex , realistic characters .
inside job : the entire plot revolves around a bank robbery where the would - be robbers have to convince chris , a young brain - damaged guy who works there as the janitor , to cooperate with them . they do this through a combination of the promise of financial reward , painting it as something daring to do to get out of his currently crappy life , and some feigned romantic interest from their pretty female accomplice .

presenting the video song “tu zaroorat nahi tu zaroori hai” from the film “fuddu” , this music video captures undiscovered side of sunny leone & sharman joshi . sung by shreya ghoshal & gandharv sachdev .
fuddu released on 14th october 2016 to mixed reviews with many equating it to 70s amol palekar movies . the movie highlights the life of a small town young man who comes to the city of his dreams , mumbai , only to be disheartened by the cramped living spaces and the quality of life in the city . our fuddu music review gives you a glimpse into the sixty minute long album .
fuddu music is composed by sumeet bellary and includes nine tracks with additional versions of too zaroorat nahi zaroori hai . the music mostly sticks to current bollywood music trends and fits in the pop genre .
set in sin city mumbai , fuddu is a sweet , simple romantic comedy that gives you an insight into the brazen lifestyle of its middle - class immigrants who cram up in match - box dwellings .
fuddu movie is a romance - comedy set in mumbai . the film is scheduled to release on 14th october 2016 . the movie follows life and story of mohan who has come to mumbai with dreams of grandeur and luxury .
fuddu casts a host of new actors like shubham and swati kapoor with a experienced supporting cast . there are multiple cameos by bollywood stars like katrina kaif , sharman joshi , and gauhar khan who add flavor to the movie .
fuddu marks the directorial debut of sunil subramani , who has chosen a poignant subject that will resonate with the blue - collared residents of mumbai . however , the film is special only in moments — the rest of the time ; it’s a montage of cliches .
he soon gets married to the girl he likes , but lack of privacy and space cause major problems in consummation of his marriage . this creates additional problems for fuddu as his wife and everyone else in his family begin to abuse ad insult him for all the wrong reasons .
fuddu music album is a mix of dance , fast - paced numbers with a couple of romantic tracks . considering the urbane theme of the movie the tracks have a contemporary feel with all the trending elements like rap and hip - hop . however , the tracks are not addictive . the title track fuddu is unremarkable an just loud without attention grabbing . however , curves mere killerr killerr has a good rhythm going for it . this track sung by jasmine sandlas has the potential to make it to the party songs list for the 2016 new year’s eve .

fuddu is a bollywood romantic - comedy film directed by sunil subramani . movie depicts the story of mohan , who ' s mind got disturbed when he saw peoples living in cramped houses in the city of mumbai . things get more complicated , when sunil ' s wife left him for unknown reasons .
performances by shubham and swati kapoor do not leave much wanting and perform their parts quite well . however , the same cannot be said of the story , which does not inspire a lot . with saat uchakkey and anna being the only other new movies releasing this week , fuddu definitely ranks better on the entertainment quotient .
fuddu , at its heart , is a coming - of - age story of a migrant . yet , the overly simple approach it takes to give the experience of living in a chawl , is only skin deep . heavier on visuals than emotions , it delivers no message nor answers any questions . too thin to be a slice of life , this one .
the story of the movie is not that new . we have a few classics of 70s that have highlighted the plight of young coming in to mumbai and living in cramped spaces . the amol palekar era movies have talked about this , the awkwardness of small - town immigrant before too . fuddu brings the same kind of entertainment in a new avatar to suit the audiences of the new millennium .
fuddu movie is a romance - comedy set in mumbai . the film is scheduled to release on 14th october 2016 . the movie follows life and story of mohan who has come to mumbai with dreams of grandeur and luxury . however , he soon realizes that the stories he has heard back home from people living in mumbai are a farce and every day living conditions are much tougher than his home .
shubham is a simpleton from banaras who travels to mumbai in search of employment and to fulfill his life long desire to live in the city of stars . but reality dawns as he tries to adjust to the cramped living quarters of a chawl where both space and privacy is a luxury that common man cannot afford . most of the first part of the movie goes into painting the picture of bumbling shubham who is equally at loss when it comes to love and ways of life . hence the name fuddu , which roughly means confused and dumb in the ways of this world .
fuddu , is a emotional turmoil face by a boy who has just arrived from banaras to mumbai city . he is disturbed to see how so many people live in cramped houses . after his marriage he finds it difficult to accept the reality as to how an entire family shares only one room . his entire world turns upside down when his wife , whom he had loved the most , leaves him for reasons which are untrue . his family too discards him and disrespects him . will he succeed in getting his love back in his life ? will he succeed in getting back the respect from his family who had once loved him unconditionally ?

' , the upcoming romantic comedy film that stars shubham and swati kapoor in the lead role has various special appearances by biggies from the industry . so while
for another number . according to reports in a daily , gauahar ' s performance in ' ishaqzaade ' s ' song , ' chhokra jawaan re ' won her accolades and according to sources , the makers feel she will bring in some good luck to the film .

reza noorani , tnn , updated : oct 17 , 2016 , 07 . 00 pm ist
mohan comes to mumbai from banaras with big dreams , but is appalled at the conditions in the chawl he has to share with his brothers . he tries to adjust and gets married , but cannot consummate his marriage . his troubles multiply when his wife leaves him . crestfallen , mohan is left with two choices . which one will he make ?
fresh off the train from banaras , mohan ( shubham ) thinks life in mumbai will be about glamour and comfort . however , the south mumbai chawl he shares with his brothers is not like that . life , for him , turns out to be five adults sharing a room , queueing up at the public bathroom every morning , traffic sounds for ambient music and zero privacy . yet , he tries to adjust .
in a secure job , he marries shalini ( swati kapoor ) , but can’t consummate the marriage , with his two brothers and sisters - in - law sleeping in the same room . his wife thinks he is impotent and leaves him . a broken man , mohan has two options — take things lying down , or prove to the world what he is made of .
shubham is believable as a small - town boy jaded and bogged down with his condition . while swati kapoor is convincing in her debut , the supporting cast is over the top . sunny leone and sharman joshi appear in a song at the end , which has ranbir kapoor reciting a romantic couplet . gauahar khan , too , appears an item number .
there ' s hardly any buzz around the film , so i went without any expectations . and guess what ? i wasn’t disappointed when i walked out of the theatre .
in fact , it was fun watching this rom - com even though it starred newcomers .
the film’s story revolves around mohan ( shubham ) , who shifts base from banaras to mumbai and has a hard time adjusting to the city’s lifestyle .
he arrives with certain expectations but is disheartened the moment he reaches his elder brother’s home .
the match - box sized home is cramped and mohan has a tough time getting used to it . he also has to deal with culture shock .
but all these elements take a backseat as mohan quickly manages to get a job and then gets married to shalini ( swati kapoor ) .
since mohan is shy , he has a hard time getting intimate with his wife . as if that’s not enough , they live with six family members in the cramped mumbai house .
while shalini tries her best to get close to her husband , the latter not only fails to recognise her hints , he doesn’t even express his love .
this creates misunderstandings between the two and finally shalini loses her cool and leaves .
mohan ' s life gets turned upside down . how he rights his life again is the rest of the story .
though the other actors lend good support to the story , shubham plays his part beautifully . at no point does he seem out of character . you empathize with him when he cries and you have a smile on your face when he appears confused and innocently tries to figure things out on his own . he has a good screen presence .
swati kapoor is good in whatever little screen time she has in the movie .
how middle class people in mumbai adjust and live in their small houses is quite a relevant topic .
the end is silly but overall , the film was fine . it would have been better if the makers hadn’t added songs , including the special number with sunny leone and sharman joshi at the end .
what is a r rahman doing at a dubai mall ? reader talib sends us a picture .
realistically portrayed , the film looks into the life of mohan mishra who comes to mumbai from benaras for greener pastures and soon realises that the shimmer of this glitzy city is all fake . reality hits him when , in the city , he has to live with his two older brothers and their families , in a chawl and is advised , “adjust karna seekh le tu” , which means ‘learn to adjust’ .
adjust to his new life , he does . but , the problem arises after he gets married . being shy , conservative , considerate and dense on the uptake , with eight members of the family crammed in a ten - by - ten room , he is unable to consummate his marriage and is taunted about it .
how he overcomes this difficult situation , forms the crux of this rom - com . though there are not many twists and turns in the plot , what keeps you glued are the unfaltering performances by the fairly new cast and a well - contained script with well - etched characters .
the dialogues are colloquial , witty and laced with the right amount of humour that is relatable .
the film is shubham’s canvas and he is convincing as manoj . he brings the right amount of energy and realism to his character , playing his role with convivial ease and flourish . he has a pleasant screen presence and has the audience one with him in empathy .
swati kapoor as mohan’s wife shalini is equally convincing . she matches shubham in histrionics , but unfortunately , she does not have much screen time . vicky ahuja as his older brother shyam , and the others , in supporting roles perfectly complement mohan on screen .
the songs with the lyrics , “no she ain’t coming for you mere bhai” and “pinjre se tota udaa” pepper the narrative with the right amount of enthusiasm and cheerfulness .
the beginning credits thank a list of stars that include ; katrina kaif , ranbir kapoor , sunny leone , sharman joshi , gauahar khan and a few more . and , throughout the film , you wonder when they would pop onto the screen .
you won’t be disappointed , if you patiently wait till the very end , when the end credits roll . not all , but a few would definitely make their guest appearance .
mounted with decent production values , the film is a pleasant surprise and worth a watch for every mumbaikar .

hi i loved this film , i thought it would be dull but it was exciting and the actors where very good , if people think it will be like titanic then they are wrong this films story is much better and its about time there was a film made on the britannic . thanks quacker31
macbeth by any other name would smell just as sweet , except if it ' s the version called scotland , pa .
macbeth , the thane of glamis , receives a prophecy from a trio of witches that one day he will become king of scotland . consumed by ambition and spurred to action by his wife , macbeth murders his king and takes the throne for himself .

britannic is a good film that has a good cast which includes edward atterton , amanda ryan , jacqueline bisset , ben daniels , john rhys - davies , bruce payne , alex ferns , eleanor oakley , archie davies , ed stobart , adam bareham , david lumsden , wolf kahler , philip rham , daniel coonan , daniel tatarsky , and martin savage ! the acting by all of these actors is very good . rhys - davies and payne are really excellent in this film . i thought that they performed good . the thrills is really good and some of it is surprising . the movie is filmed very good . the music is good . the nudity scene was a bit unneeded and i thought it brought down the impact of the film a few stars . the film is quite interesting and the movie really keeps you going until the end . this is a very good and thrilling film . if you like edward atterton , amanda ryan , jacqueline bisset , ben daniels , john rhys - davies , bruce payne , alex ferns , eleanor oakley , archie davies , the rest of the cast in the film , thrillers , dramas , romance , war , action , mystery , and interesting true stories films then i strongly recommend you to see this film today !
it ' s a weird interpretation of the macbeth story in a well done b movie kind of way . i didn ' t remember the whole macbeth story , so i looked it up on wikipedia and for some reason , they didn ' t mention this version , although they didn ' t mention any movie version , which they usually do . i guess whomever is keeping the macbeth page up to date distains the movies .
two shakespeare anthology films featured scenes from macbeth . famous scenes from shakespeare ( 1945 ) , directed by henry cass , showcased duncan ' s murder and the sleepwalking scene , and starred wilfrid lawson ( macbeth ) , cathleen nesbitt ( lady macbeth ) , felix aylmer ( doctor ) and catherine lacey ( gentlewoman ) . the world ' s a stage ( 1953 , d . charles deane ) drew on the young vic theatre players to perform similar excerpts .
“we are thrilled to present a selection of work from a tour of classic british feature films to a programme of newly commissioned shorts by female creative teams that all demonstrate shakespeare’s enduring relevance as source material . the shakespeare on film tour will be the most ambitious touring film programme that the british council has ever offered and our aim is to ensure that shakespeare lives in each of the 110 countries in our network . ”
ever wonder what macbeth would be like if it was a screwball comedy set in the 1970 ' s . . . . . . watch this and you ' ll know
jacqueline bisset a once and still magnificently beautiful and talented actress is regrettably the most notorious name in the cast . it is so unfortunate that she allowed herself to become a part of its ensemble since the film has little , if any , value at all . as can be expected , the film attempted to ride on the coattails of the enormously successful , titanic , but fell far short of its expectations . most importantly , it is not historically correct . the same argument could be made regarding titanic , as the characters were fictional . however , in the case of the brittanic , not only are the characters fictious , so is the plot . in addition , the rating is decidedly incorrect , as the film is full of violence and should have received an r rating for its violence alone . i surely regret having to pan a film starring ms . bisset . however this film does not deserve to have been distributed and certainly not under the guise under which it was . hopefully , having received as little publicity as it did , it will not reach a much larger audience than it has to date .
ian will attend the shanghai international film festival’s opening night on 11 june and take part in a special on stage event at the festival on 12 june . plans for ian to travel to other countries as part of the tour will be announced soon .
the latter titanic was not the epic film about the perilous disaster that the ship beheld when it crashed into an iceberg . no , titanic was a mediocre love story written around the ship ' s disaster . and , this film made the pathetic mistake a few years ago , to try and rip off the success of that first movie with making a tv
special
about the tragic journey of titanic ' s sister ship ( this tv special also included about a zillion commercials ) . the characters are even less interesting than they were in titanic , and the special effects and camerawork and not nearly as good . and this is not a good thing , especially since the producers obviously made sure that everyone knew this film was coming , so that they would watch it . and when it finally arrives , it is a complete and total flop . this did not keep me from buying again for my video collection when i saw it at hollywood for under five dollars . all together , the storyline is slightly more interesting , as there are several gunfights and thrilling moments in which people are chased around . the film is not the thriller that it says it is . it is just another average film based on your true story ( with the facts altered of course ) and tries to rip off of the success of its predecessor . britannic gets 2 / 5 .
the bfi national archive holds the world’s greatest collection of moving image material relating to shakespeare , the world’s greatest playwright . now , thanks to national lottery funding through the unlocking film heritage project , many rare and exciting shakespearean film and television titles – some unseen for decades – have been digitised and are being made available to audiences nationwide for viewing online , often for the very first time , on bfi player . these include : animations including oh’phelia a cartoon burlesque ( 1919 ) , vintage travelogues , musical novelties , newsreels , adverts and rarely seen fiction shorts and features inspired by the bard’s works , ranging from period drama the immortal gentleman ( 1935 ) to contemporary comedy romeo of the spirits ( 1976 ) .
there have been numerous documentaries about the play , with most high - profile stage and television productions at least being mentioned in an arts magazine programme ( for instance , bbc2 ' s review ran an item on a zulu version of the play in 1972 ) . more intriguingly , tony robinson presented the real macbeth ( channel 4 , 2001 ) , an attempt to dig out the truth behind shakespeare ' s multiple layers of legend . there have also been several broadcasts of giuseppe verdi ' s first shakespeare - sourced opera macbeth , two of them involving british productions .

“shakespeare has influenced and inspired audiences around the world for centuries . as the bfi undertakes the most extensive film programme ever to celebrate his work , i’m delighted that even more people will have the opportunity to enjoy the legacy of shakespeare . from new adaptations , to events and a tour through 110 nations , this bold new project will help us remember one the greatest writers of all time . ”
this was pretty strange . a modern day take on macbeth . the idea for it is actually pretty smart . i love the fact that the characters in this all have the same names as the play . couldn ' t get enough christopher walken . check this out some time if you ' re bored .
the initial idea is a goofy one - take the
mac
of macbeth and apply that to the hideous moral vacuum of the perfidious golden arches . hey . . . suddenly this sounds like a good fit after all . this version is set in the real life scotland , pennsylvania of the title in the 1970s , …
a modern , comedy macbeth set in a american diner , called ' duncan ' s ' sharp and funny in places , this starts off in a promising way but loses a bit of steam along the way . you don ' t necessarily have to know your shakespeare to find something to enjoy here , but it definitely helps .
new year ' s day 2001 saw channel 4 broadcasting the second rsc - sourced television macbeth , this time drawn from gregory doran ' s acclaimed late - 1990s production with antony sher and harriet walter as the macbeths , supported by joseph o ' conor ( duncan ) , nigel cooke ( macduff ) and ken bones ( banquo ) .
this film isn ' t a top movie exactly but its history is interesting . the titanic is world famous for its destiny but her sister the britannic who followed the same fate is almost forgotten . i think it was very interesting to learn about the britannic and it ' s destiny . it ' s important not to forget such incident . i really recommend you to see this movie even if it isn ' t the best made .
the shakespeare - told version , scripted by peter moffat , has a very promising first half and a genuinely original premise : the play is set in the high - pressure world of celebrity restaurants , with macbeth ( james mcavoy ) the fiercely ambitious protégé of tv chef and restaurateur duncan docherty ( vincent regan ) , while the ' witches ' become three philosophical dustmen . despite some effective blood - drenched dream sequences , moffat ' s script ultimately fails to live up to its promise : the second prophecy , revolving around the phrase
pigs will fly
, turns out to herald a feeble pun rather an expansion of an early scene in which macbeth demonstrates the most efficient way of carving a pig ' s head .
about : very bad things meets shakespeare ' s macbeth review : it ' s a very black - humored retelling of macbeth in rural pennsylvania in the 1970s . the very 1970s . it runs from kooky to evildark and back again throughout . you know the story , but adapt it to a drive - through diner and a bunch of pa rednecks . if you like insane but creepy , spiraling - out - of - control , hokey movies , this is a great choice . to make it even better , it ' s got christopher walken in it at his frankly - frank best . it ' s got crazy carnies , gay sex , burgers , and fried hedz ! and it ' s a love story .
it ' s such a clever premise , i wish the execution had been a little better . namely the witches , which are borderline insufferable . anyway , most of it is pretty good , and i really like how the filmmakers were able to see a classic noir story in macbeth . also , the movie gets about ten times better when christopher walken shows up .
i ' ve been looking forward to seeing this very bold adaptation of
macbeth
for about a year , ever since i first became aware of its existence . but first i saw roman polanski ' s 1971 version , and tonight i watched rupert goold ' s 2010 updated interpretation . of the three , i knew this would be the most challenging for good reason .
ian’s illustrious career spans six decades and he has been performing shakespeare on stage and screen for the majority of it : from breakthrough performances as henry v and edward ii at the edinburgh festival ( 1969 ) to the title role in trevor nunn’s acclaimed production of macbeth with judi dench in 1976 and the opening ceremony of the london paraylmpics ( 2012 ) when he portrayed prospero from the tempest .
contrary to my expectations this was probably the most original and effortlessly enjoyable shakespeare adaptation i ' ve ever seen . having a strong grasp of the plot and characters of
macbeth
will definitely help your overall enjoyment as you ' re more likely to appreciate some of the ingenious things that writer / director billy morrissette does with the original play , but no knowledge at all would still make this a comically surreal experience .
the programme launches on 31 march with the premiere of play on ! shakespeare in silent cinema with the score performed live by the shakespeare’s globe musicians . april will focus on the classics , including laurence olivier’s hamlet ( 1948 ) , kenneth branagh’s henry v ( 1989 ) , roman polanski’s macbeth ( 1971 ) and franco zeffirelli’s romeo and juliet ( 1968 ) brought to life with a new 4k restoration and presented in a special event and extended run at bfi southbank and a uk - wide release by park circus .
at the end of this fox family channel original movie , you find out that titanic ' s sister ship , the britannic , actually sank in 51 minutes - - twice as fast as titanic . unfortunately , the movie sails for two hours and the plot begins taking on water long before the ship does . it becomes tiresome and plodding at times and , although a few scenes are compelling , the film fails to generate the excitement that one would expect from a
based on fact
sea tale . the good news is that only 30 people lost their lives when the real britannic went down . far more died of boredom while watching this slow - moving flick .
the first feature - length british adaptation came in 1954 with joe macbeth , which is discussed later . the first ' straight ' feature - length british version was made in 1960 by george schaefer , and was originally intended for american television ' s hallmark television playhouse , though it also got a limited theatrical release . maurice evans and judith anderson played the macbeths , with michael hordern as banquo and ian bannen as macduff . the colour cinematography ( by the great freddie young , who would shoot david lean ' s lawrence of arabia two years later ) tended to prettify the material , partly shot on location in scotland , though it was well received at the time and won numerous emmy awards for both the production and the lead actors .

the most recent , made in 1997 by jeremy freeston and starring jason connery and helen baxendale , was filmed on location in scotland and occasionally shows flashes of genuine inspiration ( in the dagger scene , a church cross casts a misleading shadow ) , but for the most part it fails to rise above the merely competent , and the obviously tiny budget ( like the 1960 production , it was primarily intended for television ) is a major drawback .
television adaptations of the play run into double figures , and date almost from the dawn of the medium . on 25 march and 3 december 1937 , the bbc broadcast selected scenes from the play ( the second broadcast was sourced from an old vic production ) , while the first complete broadcast came on 20 february 1949 in a version staged by tv shakespeare veteran george more o ' ferrall that starred stephen murray and bernadette o ' farrell as the macbeths , esmond knight as banquo and patrick macnee as malcolm . all were unrecorded live performances , and have consequently not survived .
the next three television productions ( in 1960 , 1965 and 1966 ) were all made for schools and broadcast during the day , usually in serial form . the first colour television broadcast of the full play came on 20 september 1970 , in the bbc ' s high - profile play of the month slot . a conservative but often effective production , it starred eric porter and janet suzman as the macbeths , with john thaw as banquo and john woodvine as macduff , and briskly directed by john gorrie . two months later , itv broadcast its own colour version , a five - part serial aimed at schools that starred michael jayston and barbara leigh - hunt .

lol . some of the previous
reviewers
seem to have forgotten that this tv movie wasn ' t intended to be a history class ! if you ' re looking for a documentary on the britannic this isn ' t it . if you ' re looking for a well acted , entertaining hour and half than you might like this movie . i do agree with the person who mentioned the cheesy special effects and some of the cringe - inducing dialoge .
while this is one of the better sort of ' made for tv movies ' , it did contain one mistake that made me cringe . during a conversation between the german spy and an irish accomplice , the accomplice states that many of the irish seamen aboard will be glad to take part in the seizure of the ship because ' they ' ve had family killed by the black and tans ' . this is supposed to be 1916 . the black and tans weren ' t founded until 1920 . its just a pity that that small element wasn ' t properly checked out first .
too far from the facts , too close to cameron ' s titanic . . .
the
special effects
are nothing to write home about , and there is some corny dialogue , but it is entertaining to watch . the acting is terrific by all the actors , but the two kids got on my nerves . if you ' re a fan of ryan , than you ' ll love it ; she is wonderful in the role of vera campbell , and she is in practically every scene .
i believe this movie was made for tv , and i think that i have seen better special effects in an older video game . but i don ' t think that those things make this a bad movie , the plot is interesting and the movie never gets boring . if you are looking for a historically accurate story of the britannic , then you might not like this movie . it is true that the britannic was the sister ship of the famous titanic , that it was suppose to be even safer and grander , and then the ship was commissioned by the british government as a hospital ship during world war one . but the story about spies on board , and that they were the ones that made the ship sink is not true . the ship was really sunk by a mine , or torpedo and i really doubt that there were any spies . the movie is not rated ; i don ' t remember any swear words , or crude language . there is some violence , but it is not bad . but i was disappointed that the movie does have a nude / sex scene , in which amanda ryan shows off her stuff . this scene really disappointed me because the movie had been so clean and family friendly until that point . but i really do think that this movie was interesting , and if cheesy special effects , and nudity ( you can always hit the skip button ) do not bug you i would suggest watching this movie .
this movie was defanately far from the truth . there were not german agents onboard who tried to blow up the ship and sink it and the ship didn ' t get hijacked and crew members were not shot by german spys . the britannic was torpedoed off of greece . so , this movie was extremely fictional so if you are looking for something historical acurate , this will not make your list . but , the story , i personally thought , was very neat and the effects and settings were very well done and looked very true to life . it ' s worth the time watching but this is fiction !
here ' s some facts . improved safety features included raising 5 bulkheads from e to b deck ( it could stay afloat with 6 compartments flooded , dia instead of the titanic ' s 4 ) , making it 904 ft . long , 94 ft . wide , compared to 883 ft . and 93 ft . of titanic , and weighed ( est . ) 48 , 000 tons , the titanic 46 , 000 tons , so britannic was the longest , widest , heaviest , and largest of the 3
olympic
class ships ( olympic , titanic , and britannic ) . because of ww1 , it never hauled a revenue passenger , it was used as a hospital ship . it ' s sinking was similar to the impress of ireland in one crucial fact : many port holes were left open . had the port holes been closed , it probably wouldn ' t have sank . some say a torpedo sank it ( there was a u - boat in the area ) , but it was more likely a mine ( the u - boat had laying mines in that path ) . here ' s a mistake in the movie : the explosion was from a bottle of ether in a coal bunker .
it would seem from the reviews to date that
britannic
is either a movie you love or hate . i thought it was superb . in fact , it ' s hard to believe that such an elaborate production was designed for television . admittedly , i watched it on dvd and it ' s quite possible that if i had been forced to watch its action undercut by television commercials , i would not be nearly so enthusiastic . i hate commercials and for that reason , have not watched any movies on tv for at least twenty years . for me , all aspects of this movie were one hundred per cent entertaining . perhaps i should say
gripping
rather than entertaining . the acting from all concerned , but especially the stars , jacqueline bisset , edward atterton , john rhys - davies , amanda ryan and bruce payne , i would rate as absolutely perfect . the same goes for all the technical credits , especially the inspired direction , superb photography and gripping special effects .
while this is an obvious made - for - tv follow up to titanic ( cameron ) it does draw attention to a signficant shipwreck that has been largely forgotten . bollards relatively recent expedition has shown that the ship was sunk by torpedo ' s as shown , but sunk because the portholes were open and the bulkhead doors were not closed . it is indeed fortunate that it happened on an inwards transit because on an outwards one the loss of life would have been enormous . yet again we have intrigue and romance fictionally built into a disaster movie but the truth of the matter is that the sinking of britannic was an act of war with minimal loss of life . with what had happened in galipoli and the western front it was hardly newsworthy . the movie for all its slights of hand might have just made its sinking more noteworthy than has otherwise been the case .
my review of the plot of britannic would only mirror other reviews , it ' s a good movie and does well with it ' s budget . it is a little to similar to titanic for my liking in that there is unexpected romance aboard a large ship that sinks . it ' s still very watchable until right at the end when the ship actually sinks . it switches from real footage of the characters to a computer animation of the ship sinking . the ship then topples over and sinks in all of about 10 seconds . the fact that it ' s animated couldn ' t be more obvious . it ' s such a let down , they coped well with the low budget throughout , then at the climax of it all they cheap out with some very nasty cgi .

joe mcbeth is a hard - working but unambitious doofus who toils at a hamburger stand alongside his wife pat , who has much smarter . pat believes she could do better with the place than their boss norm is doing , so she plans to usurp norm , convincing mac to rob the restaurant ' s safe and then murder norm , using the robbery as a way of throwing the cops off their trail .
writer - director billy morrissette has reworked the shakespeare ' s elizabethan tragedy as a modern comedy set in pennsylvania in the 1970s . norm duncan ( james rebhorn ) owns a struggling burger joint , duncan’s , in a small town called scotland , where joe ' mac ' mcbeth ( james le gros ) is one of his employees . although mac and his sexed - up wife pat ( maura tierney ) are…
james le gros is probably no one ' s idea of the thane of glamis , and his wife ( maura tierney ) is equally unimpressive , but christopher walken is good value as lt macduff and kevin corrigan is memorable as ' banko ' .
i would like to have seen a bit more effort to tie in this new setting with the original plot , rather than just using the character names . you might want to see the…
if you could just go get us two more beers , bring them back here , and then leave , well that would just be a little slice of heaven .
it ' s not a bad movie and it has some good old songs that i like and maura tierney walks into a pharmacy and says :
thanks , frank
, which is great because shakespeare didn ' t put a frank in his original play . i ' m not sure what the point was for this movie , but the director has only directed this one movie , so maybe that was the point .
