Endless Love Official Trailer #1 (2014) - Alex Pettyfer Drama HD

'Endless Love' Movie Review



I watched ‘Endless Love’ and I enjoyed it. It stars Mr. Alex Pettyfer and some other, less important people. I don’t know if most people realize that Mr. Pettyfer’s movie career began before most people became aware of him. If you were lucky, as I was, you caught his first blockbuster ‘I Am Number Four’ and certainly he became a household name with ‘Magic Mike’; but Mr. Pettyfer, for all his 23 years, also had a previous British movie career, notably including ‘Stormbreaker’, in which he acts opposite non other than Mickey Rourke – and holds his own.

In any case, ‘Endless Love’ is a remake of a 1981 movie of the same title, starring Brooke Shields and a - more or less - forgotten Martin Hewitt, which caused a mild stir in its time. It is a classic tale of teenage passion met with disapproval and overwhelming obstacles.

Winter's Tale - Official Trailer [HD]

Winter's Tale



I watched the movie Winter’s tale and I loved it. In fact, I watched it twice, that’s how much I loved it! Winter’s tale is a love story set in a mythic New York City and it takes place in two different times, the early 1900’s – if I’m not mistaken- and today, thanks to the premise of the movie, which is that love can perform miracles. It is sprinkled with pop theology and spirituality and it is a story very well told, cinematically. It stars Colin Farrell, Russell Crowe, and Will Smith. I have to say that Colin Farrell seems to be exceptionally gifted genetically; he is nearing his fifth decade and yet looks like and can play roles of men in their twenties. The film is photographed exceedingly well (the winter landscapes especially are breath-taking), is fast-paced and interesting and I whole-heartedly recommend it.

rock of ages

The hunk knows that 'rock of ages' tanked at the box office, don't think the hunk doesn't know... What YOU don't know is that the hunk does not follow the main stream and conventional wisdom... so the hunk LOVED this movie! I mean, granted, Tom Cruise was hideous in it, I'll agree. However, the young couple, the studly revelation Mr. Bonetta and Mrs. Huff was exquisite! The opening scene in the Greyhound bus is one of the most poetic I've seen in a loooong time. It captures the secret camaraderie between the passengers of a greyhound bus during a long trip. I recommend this movie!

moonrise kingdom

How disappointing... Just a piece of filmographic excrement. I can see where the director was going, this was supposed to be an attempt at cinegraphic poetry. Granted, at times, at microseconds really, there are faint echoes of the magnificence of some of Mr. David Lynch's masterpieces - very faint and distorted echoes, that is... If you like nonsense, by all means, be my guest, go see it!

magic mike

This movie is exactly what one would expect and it does not disappoint... Mr. Tatum shows his beautiful asset within the first few (if not the first, I can't remember) scenes and it is just the first piece of an array of eye candy parading in front of the audiences' hungry eyes. Again, I need to commend Mr. Tatum for the slab of tight meat that is his body. Mr. Pettyfer is a close second. He is shorter but younger and equally lustful.A great movie!
