1. Movie Review - Walk Don't Run (1966)
by Ugur Akinci
Posted on Jan 09, 2007 |
Walk Don't Run (1966) is a soft romantic comedy built on the premise of lack of living space in the cramped Tokyo of 1964 Olympics and was Cary Grant's last movie, capping his 30-plus years of successful movie career. This is the last time the movie fans savored his right-hand-always-in-his-pant's-pocket ...read more |

2. Movie Review - Penny Serenade (1941)
by Ugur Akinci
Posted on Jan 09, 2007 |
An unremarkable (by today's standards) childrearing melodrama in which Cary Grant delivers a performance so good that he was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar. George Stevens directed the script by Morrie Ryskind. The whole movie unfolds as a series of linear flashbacks, each triggered by the LP records a disconsolate ...read more |

by Ugur Akinci
Posted on Jan 09, 2007 |
A remake of Leo Carey's 1939 hit “Love Affair” starring Irene Dunne , Charles Boyer and Maria Ouspenskaya. This same script would be shot (with some cosmetic plots changes) once more time as “Love Affair” in 1994 starring Warren Betty, Annette Benning, and Katherine Hepburn. Structurally this is a very interesting and ...read more |

4. Movie Review - Bishop's Wife (1947)
by Ugur Akinci
Posted on Jan 09, 2007 |
BISHOP'S WIFE turned out to be the opposite of everything that I thought the title implied. Honestly, I thought this would be a movie in which Cary Grant character would be falling in love with a “bishop's wife” and creating untold complications along the way. Not quite. In this very romantic “Christmas ...read more |

5. Movie Review - His Girl Friday (1940)
by Ugur Akinci
Posted on Jan 09, 2007 |
A much-praised romantic comedy classic directed by Howard Hawks and written by Charles Lederer based on the stage play "The Front Page" by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur. Three immediate observations about this famous flick: 1) It certainly still is a funny film. I ended up laughing out loud ...read more |

A rather average Blake Edwards comedy released the same year as that other Cary Grant movie that would destined to become a classic of all times – NORTH BY NORTHWEST (1959). OPERATION PETTICOAT is written by Stanley Shapiro and Maurice Richlin. The film is one long flashback of Admiral Sherman (Cary ...read more |

7. Movie Review: "Pirates of the Caribbean
by Dennis Siluk
Posted on Jan 09, 2007 |
I’m not sure how to start this review, the reason being is, I was once told if you got nothing nice to say, don’t say anything, or always say something nice if your going to slam something next. This movie is fragmented, or disjointed throughout its long three-hour worthless scenes. I ...read more |

9. Munich (DVD) Review
by Britt Gillette
Posted on Jan 09, 2007 |
Nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Munich is undoubtedly director Steven Spielberg’s best work since Band of Brothers (2001). At 2 hours and 44 minutes, the film moves along at a surprisingly quick pace. Spielberg makes adequate use of the time, providing added depth to the characters and ...read more |
