Discover Seven Excellent Film Opinions For You To Choose From

By Marianne Hart

Prior to the'80's the only way you could watch the most recent motion picture was to go to the theater. Infrequently a blockbuster film would be shown on Television long after it had left the theater, but of course it was then altered to adapt to the commercials and any primetime screening constraints. Choose a movie from below and enjoy.

The Bourne Ultimatum - In the third movie of the series, Jason Bourne is still being sought after by those who had trained him into the greatest assassin that he is. Having lost his memory when almost being murdered, Bourne is retracing his past to try to recognize who he was, and why everybody wants him dead. All his skills are put to the test, as the C.I.A. is persistent in its effort to have him eliminated. Starring Matt Damon and Julia Stiles.

Red - Very last film in Kieslowski's "3 Colors" trilogy which, like Blue and White, might stand alone with its self contained tale. Fashion model Jacob meets upset, retired magistrate Trintignant by accident, then creates a relationship with him and enters his secluded, clandestine life. Set in Geneva, this is a story of few entwined lives. Cast includes Irene Jacob, Jean-Louis Trintignant, Frederique Feder, Jean-Pierre Lorit, Juliette Binoche, Julie Delpy, and Benoit Regent. (99 minutes,'94)

Adam's Apples - This movie is a peculiar sinister comedy about two very diverse men who have a battle of wills. It is a newly developed religious zealot versus a hard core neo-Nazi villain. The battle of good versus evil is on. The key stars are Ulrich Thomsen, Mads Mikkelsen, Nicolas Brom, and Paprika Steen. (German-Danish-comedy directed by Anders Thomas Jensen)

(1997 dark comedy directed by Griffin Dunne)
