007 JAMES BOND SOLO POR TUS OJOS


Summary: After a ship sunk off the coast of Albania, the world's superpowers begin a feverish search for its valuable lost cargo: the powerful ATAC system, which will give its bearer unlimited control over Polaris nuclear submarines. As Bond joins the search, he suspects the suave Kristatos (Julian Glover) of seizing the device. The competition between nations grows more deadly by the moment, but Bond finds an ally in the beautiful Melina Havelock (Caroline Bouquet), who blames Kristatos for the death of her parents. The non-stop action includes automobile chases, thrilling underwater battles, and even a breathtaking tour over razor-sharp coral reefs. But all of this is merely a prelude to 007's cliffhanging assault of a magnificent mountaintop fortress. -- Robert Lynch

007 James Bond Casino Royale


Summary: "Casino Royale" sigue la pista del principio de la carrera del agente britnico James Bond (Daniel Craig). Su primera misin como agente 007 le lleva hasta Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), banquero de terroristas de todo el mundo. Para detenerlo, y desmantelar la red terrorista, Bond debe derrotar a Le Chiffre en una partida de pquer con apuestas altas en el Casino Royale. Al principio Bond est molesto cuando asignan a una hermosa oficial del Tesoro, Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), para entregar la apuesta para la partida y vigilar el dinero del gobierno. Pero, mientras Bond y Vesper sobreviven a una serie de ataques mortales por parte de Le Chiffre y sus secuaces, se desarrolla una atraccin mutua que les conduce a peligros mayores y acontecimientos que marcarn la vida de Bond para siempre... (FILMAFFINITY) Casino Royale introduces James Bond before he holds his license to kill. But Bond is no less dangerous, and with two professional assassinations in quick succession, he is elevated to "00" status. "M" (Judi Dench), head of the British Secret Service, sends the newlypromoted 007 on his first mission that takes him to Madagascar, the Bahamas and eventually leads him to Montenegro to face Le Chiffre, a ruthless financier under threat from his terrorist clientele, who is attempting to restore his funds in a high-stakes poker game at the Casino Royale. "M" places Bond under the watchful eye of the Treasury official Vesper Lynd. At first skeptical of what value Vesper can provide, Bond's interest in her deepens as they brave danger together. Le Chiffre's cunning and cruelty come to bear on them both in a way Bond could never imagine, and he learns his most important lesson: Trust no one.

007 JAMES BOND - VIVE I DEJA MORIR


Summary: En tan slo veinticuatro horas, tres agentes del servicio secreto britnico que investigaban una red de trfico de drogas aparecen asesinados en extraas circunstancias. Todas las pistas conducen a Mr. Big, y a un diplomtico llamado Katanga. El agente 007, James Bond, es enviado a Nueva York para investigar al enigmtico personaje. (FILMAFFINITY) Roger Moore was introduced as James Bond in this 1973 action movie featuring secret agent 007. More self-consciously suave and formal than predecessor Sean Connery, he immediately reestablished Bond as an uncomplicated and wooden fellow for the feel-good '70s. This film also marks a deviation from the more character-

driven stories of the Connery years, a deliberate shift to plastic action (multiple chases, bravura stunts) that made the franchise more of a comic book or machine. If that's not depressing enough, there's even a good British director on board, Guy Hamilton (Force 10 from Navarone). The story finds Bond taking on an international drug dealer (Yaphet Kotto), and while that may be superficially relevant, it isn't exactly the same as fighting supervillains on the order of Goldfinger. --Tom Keogh

007 JAMES BOND AL SERVICIO SECRETO DE SU MAJESTAD


Summary: Tras la marcha temporal de Connery, el actor australiano George Lazenby toma el relevo en esta nueva aventura del agente britnico 007, que en esta ocasin se asocia a un mafioso -con cuya sensual hija Tracy Di Vicenzo (Diana Rigg) se llega a casar-, para unir sus fuerzas en la lucha conta la malvada organizacin Spectra. Ambientada en los alpes suizos, el malvado Stavro Blofeld -Savalas- amenaza al mundo entero con un malvado plan: desarrollar y lanzar una peligrosa bacteria que podra acabar con millones de personal en todo el planeta. La ausencia del actor escocs y el poco carisma de Lazenby hicieron de esta entrega uno de sus mayores fracasos comerciales, pero en aos posteriores no han faltado los defensores que la reivindican como una de las ms interesantes de toda la saga. (FILMAFFINITY) Australian model George Lazenby took up the mantle of the world's most suave secret agent when Sean Connery retired as James Bond-prematurely, it turned out. Connery returned in Diamonds Are Forever before leaving the role to Roger Moore and Lazenby's subsequent career fizzled, yet this one-hit wonder is responsible for one of the best Bond films of all time. In On Her Majesty's Secret Service, 007 leaves the Service to privately pursue his SPECTRE nemesis Blofeld (played this time by Telly Savalas), whose latest master plan involves a threat to the world's crops by agricultural sterilization. Bond teams up with suave international crime lord Draco (Gabriele Ferzetti) and falls in love with--and marries--his elegant daughter, Tracy (Diana Rigg). Bond goes monogamous? Not at first; after all he has Blofeld's harem to seduce. Lazenby hasn't the intensity of Connery but he has fun with his quips and even lampoons the Bond image in a playful pre-credits sequence, and Rigg, fresh from playing sexy Emma Peel in The Avengers, matches 007 in every way. Former editor Peter Hunt makes a strong directorial debut, deftly handling the elaborate action sequences--including a car chase turned road rally through the icy snow--with a kinetic finesse and a dash of humor. Though not a hit on its original release, On Her Majesty's Secret Service has become a fan favorite and the closest the series has come to capturing the spirit of Ian Fleming's books. --Sean Axmaker

007 JAMES BOND CONTRA EL DR. NO


Summary: En esta primera de la legendaria saga del agente 007, James Bond acaba de llegar a Jamaica a fin de iniciar la investigacin de los asesinatos cometidos por un agente especial britnico y su secretaria, pero pronto descubrir la existencia de una siniestra organizacin en la isla Crab Key... El Doctor No es esta vez su mayor enemigo, y junto a su cmplice, el profesor Dent, tiene un siniestro plan: desviar la trayectoria de los cohetes de Cabo Caaveral. (FILMAFFINITY) Released in 1962, this first James Bond movie remains one of the best, and serves as an entertaining reminder that the Bond series began (in keeping with Ian Fleming's novels) with a surprising lack of gadgetry and big-budget fireworks. Sean Connery was just 32 years old when he won the role of Agent 007. In his first adventure James Bond is called to Jamaica where a colleague and secretary have been mysteriously killed. With an American CIA agent (Jack Lord, pre-Hawaii Five-O), they discover that the nefarious Dr. No (Joseph Wiseman) is scheming to blackmail the U.S. government with a device capable of deflecting and

destroying U.S. rockets launched from Cape Canaveral. Of course, Bond takes time off from his exploits to enjoy the company of a few gorgeous women, including the bikini-clad Ursula Andress. She gloriously kicks off the long-standing tradition of Bond women who know how to please their favorite secret agent. A sexist anachronism? Maybe, but this is Bond at his purest, kicking off a series of movies that shows no sign of slowing down. --Jeff Shannon

007 JAMES BOND DES DE RUSIA CON AMOR


Summary: Una mquina que descifra los ms complicados sistemas de comunicacin es el objetivo del agente britnico James Bond, que esta vez tiene que viajar hasta Estambul para desarrollar su misin. (FILMAFFINITY)

007 JAMES BOND DIAMANTES PARA LA ETERNIDAD


Summary: Tras pasar unas merecidas vacaciones en Francia, el agente secreto James Bond recibe una llamada del Jefe M para realizar una peligrosa misin relacionada con unos diamantes en bruto desaparecidos... (FILMAFFINITY) Sean Connery retired from the 007 franchise after You Only Live Twice (replaced by George Lazenby in the underrated and underperforming On Her Majesty's Secret Service) but was lured back for one last official appearance as James Bond in Diamonds Are Forever. He's in fine form--cool but ruthless--in a sharp precredits sequence hunting the unkillable Blofeld (a suavely menacing Charles Gray in this incarnation), but the MacGuffin of a story (involving diamond smuggling, a superlaser on a satellite, and Blofeld's latest plot to rule the world ) is full of the groaning tongue-in-cheek gags that Roger Moore would make his signature. Goldfinger director Guy Hamilton keeps the film zipping along gamely from one entertaining set piece to another, including a terrific car chase in a parking lot, a battle with a pair of bikini-clad killer gymnasts named Bambi and Thumper, and a deadly game with a bizarre pair of fey, sardonic killers who dispatch their victims with elaborate invention. Jill St. John is the brassy but not too bright American smuggler Tiffany Case, and country singer and pork sausage king Jimmy Dean costars as a reclusive billionaire with not-so-subtle parallels to Howard Hughes. Shirley Bassey belts out the memorable theme song, one of the series' best. Connery retired again after this one but he returned once more, for Never Say Never Again 15 years later for a rival production company. --Sean Axmaker

007 JAMES BOND EL HOMBRE DE LA PITOLA DE ORO


Summary: El superagente britnico 007 habr de vrselas ahora con el ms peligroso asesino a sueldo del momento: un hombre llamado Scaramanga, ms conocido como el hombre de la pistola de oro, que tratar de deshacerse de Bond con los ms sofisticados recursos... (FILMAFFINITY) The British superspy with a license to kill takes on his dark underworld double, a classy assassin who kills with golden bullets at $1 million a hit. Roger Moore, in his second outing as James Bond, meets Christopher Lee's Scaramanga, one of the most magnetic villains in the entire series, in this entertaining but rather wan entry in the 007 sweepstakes. Bond's globetrotting search takes him to Hong Kong, Bangkok, and finally China, where Scaramanga turns his island retreat into a twisted theme park for a deadly game of wits between the gunmen, moderated by Scaramanga's diminutive man Friday Nick Nack (Fantasy Island's Herv Villechaize). Britt Ekland does her best as the most embarrassingly inept Bond girl in 007 history, a clumsy, dim agent named Mary Goodnight who looks fetching in a bikini, while

Maud Adams is Scaramanga's tough but haunted lover and assistant (she returns to the series as the title character in Octopussy). Clifton James, the redneck sheriff from Live and Let Die, makes an embarrassing and ill-advised appearance as a racist tourist who briefly teams up with 007 in what is otherwise the film's highlight, a high-energy chase through the crowded streets of Bangkok that climaxes with a breathtaking midair corkscrew jump. Bond and company are let down by a lazy script, but Moore balances the overplayed humor with a steely performance and Lee's charm and enthusiasm makes Scaramanga a cool, deadly, and thoroughly enchanting adversary. --Sean Axmaker

007 JAMES BOND GOLDENEYE


Summary: En sus vacaciones, el agente Bond se encuentra con la bella y letal Xenia Onatopp, que intenta hacerse con los planos de un nuevo helicptero invulnerable a las interferencias. Mientras tanto la programadora del ejrcito ruso Natalya Siminova es la nica superviviente de su equipo a un macabro plan del general Ourumov para hacerse con Goldeneye, un arma espacial ultrasecreta que emite pulsos nucleares que inutilizan cualquier equipo electrnico. Bond formar equipo con Natalya para descubrir a los malhechores tras el robo. (FILMAFFINITY) The 18th James Bond adventure was a runaway box-office success when released in 1995, thanks to the arrival of Pierce Brosnan as the fifth actor (following the departure of Timothy Dalton) to play the suave, danger-loving Agent 007. This James Bond is a bit more vulnerable and psychologically complex--and just a shade more politically correct--but he's still a formally attired playboy at heart, with a lovely Russian beauty (Izabella Scorupco) as his sexy ally against a cadre of renegade Russians bent on--what else?--global domination. There's also a seductive villainous with the suggestive name of Xenia Onatopp (Famke Janssen), and the great actress Judi Dench makes her first appearance as Bond's superior, M, who wisecracks about 007's "dinosaur" status as a globetrotting sexist. All in all, this action-packed Bond adventure provided a much-needed boost the long-running movie series, revitalizing the 007 franchise for the turn of the millennium. --Jeff Shannon

007 JAMES BOND GOLDFINGER


Summary: Un malvado magnate, Auric Goldfinger, quiere hacer estallar una bomba atmica en Fort Knox, donde est toda la reserva federal de oro de los Estados Unidos, para poder as incrementar enormemente el precio del metal dorado. (FILMAFFINITY) Dry as ice, dripping with deadpan witticisms, only Sean Connery's Bond would dare disparage the Beatles, that other 1964 phenomenon. No one but Connery can believably seduce women so effortlessly, kill with almost as much ease, and then pull another bottle of Dom Perignon '53 out of the fridge. Goldfinger contains many of the most memorable scenes in the Bond series: gorgeous Shirley Eaton (as Jill Masterson) coated in gold paint by evil Auric Goldfinger and deposited in Bond's bed; silent Oddjob, flipping a razor-sharp derby like a Frisbee to sever heads; our hero spread-eagle on a table while a laser beam moves threateningly toward his crotch. Honor Blackman's Pussy Galore is the prototype for the series' rash of man-hating supermodels. And Desmond Llewelyn reprises his role as Q, giving Bond what is still his most impressive car, a snazzy little number that fires off smoke screens, punctures the tires of vehicles on the chase, and boasts a handy ejector seat. Goldfinger's two climaxes, inside Fort Knox and aboard a private plane, have to be seen to be believed. --Raphael Shargel

007 JAMES BOND LA ESPIA QUE AMO

Summary: La misteriosa desaparicin de dos submarinos nucleares hace que colaboren los mejores operativos de los servicios secretos britnico y sovitico: James Bond y la mayor Amasova. Detrs de todo se encuentra el magnate Stromberg, cuya finalidad es la destruccin de la "corrupta" humanidad para fundar una civilizacin pura bajo el mar. (FILMAFFINITY) Nobody does it better than Bond, and he proves it once more in this explosively entertaining adventure that takes him from the Egyptian pyramids to the ocean floor to a gravity-defying mountaintop ski chase! Roger Moore brings inimitable style to Agent 007 as he teams with beautiful Russian agent Anya Amasova (Barbara Bach) to stop the megalomaniac Stromberg (Curt Jurgens) from unleashing a horrific scheme for world domination. But as the countdown to nuclear Armageddon begins, Bond must first battle Jaws (Richard Kiel), a seemingly indestructible steel-toothed giant!

007 JAMES BOND QUANTUM OF SOLACE


Summary: Traicionado por Vesper, la mujer a la que amaba, 007 se enfrenta a la necesidad de convertir su nueva misin en algo personal. En su bsqueda decisiva para revelar la verdad, Bond y M interrogan a Mr. White, quien revela que la organizacin que chantaje a Vesper es mucho ms compleja y peligrosa de lo imaginado. El servicio de inteligencia forense vincula a un traidor del Mi6 con una cuenta bancaria en Hait, donde un caso de identificacin errnea lleva a Bond a conocer a la bella pero combativa Camille, una mujer que tiene su propia venganza.

En un campo minado de traiciones, asesinatos y engaos, Bond se ala con sus viejos amigos en una batalla para desenmascarar la verdad. A medida que se acerca al hombre responsable de la traicin de Vesper, 007 debe mantenerse un paso por delante de la CIA, de los terroristas e incluso de M para desenredar el siniestro plan de Greene y detener a su organizacin. (FILMAFFINITY)

007 JAMES BOND SOLOS SE VIVE DOS VECES


Summary: Dos naves espaciales, una norteamericana y otra rusa, han sido secuestradas en la rbita terrestre. Todo depende ahora de la intervencin del Agente 007 -Sean Connery- para prevenir una guerra nuclear entre las dos superpotencias. Su misin consistir en viajar hasta Japn y desenmascarar a la peligrosa organizacin Spectra y a su diablico lder, Ernest Stavro Blofeld -Donald Pleasence-. (FILMAFFINITY) The film boasts the best of the Bond title songs (this one sung on a dreamy track by Nancy Sinatra), but the movie itself is one of the weaker ones of the Sean Connery phase of the 007 franchise. The story concerns an effort by the evil organization SPECTRE to start a world war, but the not-so-super villain behind the plot is the awfully civilized Donald Pleasence. The thin script is by Roald Dahl (shouldn't we have expected a better Bond nemesis from the creator of mad genius Willy Wonka?), and direction is by British veteran Lewis Gilbert (Alfie). But the movie can't hold a candle to Dr. No, From Russia with Love, or Goldfinger. --Tom Keogh

101 Dalmatas

Summary: Pongo y Perdita, los dlmatas protagonistas, son una feliz pareja canina que vive rodeada de sus cachorros junto a sus amos, Roger y Anita. Pero la felicidad no es eterna, y hay una malvada mujer, Cruella De Vil, que vive en una gran mansin, que es la mayor enemiga de los perros. Cuando se entera de que los protagonistas tienen nada menos que quince cachorros dlmatas, su sueo de obtener un exclusivo abrigo de piel de los pequeos perros, se convierte en una obsesin. Para conseguirlo contrata a dos ladrones y pone en marcha un malvado plan con el nico fin de secuestrar a los dlmatas. (FILMAFFINITY) Back in 1961, Walt Disney got a little hip with 101 Dalmatians, making use of that flat Saturday morning cartoon style that had become so popular. The result is a kitschy change in animation and story. Pongo and Perdita are two lonely dalmatians who meet cute in a London park and arrange for their pet humans to marry so they can live together and raise a family. They become proud parents of 15 pups, who are stolen by the dastardly Cruella De Vil, who wants to make a fur coat out of them. Cruella has become the most popular villain in all of Disney; she's flamboyantly nasty and lots of fun. But it's the dalmatians who shine in this endearing classic, particularly those precocious pups. Telling the story from the dogs' point of view is a clever conceit, a fundamental flaw of the live-action remake. --Bill Desowitz

20000 leguas de viaje submarino


Summary: Adaptacin de la mtica novela de Verne que obtuvo excelentes crticas. En 1870, y como consecuencia de los relatos de marineros que dicen haber visto un monstruo marino al sur del Pacfico, los norteamericanos fletan un buque de guerra para destruir a la bestia que est alterando la tranquilidad de los mares.

Con el buque hundido, los tripulantes son rescatados por el "monstruo", el cual resulta ser un buque de hierro que tiene la facultad de poderse sumergir en el mar, algo indito hasta entonces. (FILMAFFINITY) UPC: 786936786583 DESCRIPTION: This is a true Disney Classic Film. Climb aboard the Nautilus and into an amazing undersea world of spellbinding adventure!

2012
Summary: Como el calendario maya predice, el mundo se acaba en el ao 2012, con desastres naturales como erupciones volcnicas, tifones y glaciares inundando el planeta. Nunca antes una fecha en la historia ha sido tan importante para tantas culturas, religiones, cientficos y gobiernos. 2012 es una aventura pica sobre un cataclismo global que provoca el fin del mundo y cuenta la heroica lucha de los supervivientes. (FILMAFFINITY)

300
Summary: Adaptacin del cmic de Frank Miller (autor del cmic de "Sin City") sobre la famosa batalla de las Termpilas, ocurrida en el ao 480 A.C. durante las Guerras Mdicas, en las que Jerjes, emperador de Persia, trataba de conquistar Grecia. Atenas consigui convencer a Lenidas I, rey de Esparta, para que participase en la guerra contra los persas. As, el rey Leonidas (Gerard Butler) y 300 espartanos se

enfrentaron a un inmensamente superior ejrcito persa... (FILMAFFINITY) The epic graphic novel by Frank Miller (Sin City) assaults the screen with the blood, thunder and awe of its ferocious visual style faithfully recreated in an intense blend of live-action and CGI animation. Retelling the ancient Battle of Thermopylae, it depicts the titanic clash in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) and his massive Persian army. Experience history at swordpoint. And moviemaking with a cutting edge.

9 semanas y media
Summary: Elizabeth, una bella marchante de arte, entabla relacin con John, un broker de Wall Street. Tras unos inicios apasionados, la pareja se embarcar, por deseo de l, en una serie de juegos erticos cada vez ms extraos que confundirn a Elizabeth, pues ella le ama pero desconoce los verdaderos sentimientos de John. (FILMAFFINITY) Frequently given short shrift as a blue movie (which it is) and as mindless (which it isn't), director Adrian Lyne's follow-up to Flashdance (insert own joke here) is a thoughtful, smutty film about a bad sexual relationship. It follows the two-month affair between Elizabeth, an art-gallery dealer, and John, a Wall Street exec. The relationship spirals downward into raunchier sex (filmed, by the way, quite nicely) but principally is about two adults doing adult things but not acting anything like real adults. Attempts at actual human connection, about the longing to be "good," are present here and make this an aboveaverage erotic film. Rourke is just honing his scumbag, bad-boy persona; but it doesn't overwhelm. Lots and lots of Kim Basinger. --Keith Simanton

Acordes y desacuerdos
Summary: Amrica aos 30. Emmet Ray es un genio del jazz, un guitarrista magistral, slo superado por el hombre que le obsesiona: el legendario Django Reinhardt. Sin embargo, en cuanto baja del escenario Emmet se convierte en un tipo arrogante, zafio y mujeriego que bebe demasiado y que disfruta disparando a las ratas. En definitiva, l sabe que es un msico de jazz con talento, peor tambin que su licenciosa vida de jugador y bebedor, su tendencia a meterse en problemas y su incapacidad para comprometerse le impide alcanzar la cima profesional y sentimental. Un da Emmet conoce a Hattie, una chica muda con la que comienza una relacin demasiado seria para su gusto. (FILMAFFINITY) Woody Allen makes beautiful music but only fitful comedy with his story of "the second greatest guitar player in the world." Sean Penn plays Emmett Ray, an irresponsible, womanizing swing guitar player in Depression-era America who is guided by an ego almost as large as his talent. "I'm an artist, a truly great artist," he proclaims time and time again, and when he plays, soaring into a blissedout world of pure melodic beauty, he proves it. Samantha Morton almost steals the film as his mute girlfriend Hattie, a sweet Chaplinesque waif who loves him unconditionally, and Uma Thurman brings haughty moxie to her role as a slumming socialite and aspiring writer who's forever analyzing Emmett's peculiarities (like taking his dates to shoot rats at the city dump). The vignettelike tales are interspersed with comments by jazz aficionados and critics, but this is less a Zelig-like mockumentary than an extension of the self-absorbed portraits of Deconstructing Harry and Celebrity. The lazy pace drags at times and the script runs dry between comic centerpieces--the film screams for more of Allen's playful invention--but there's a bittersweet tenderness and an affecting vulnerability that is missing from his other recent work. Shot by Zhao Fei (The Emperor and the Assassin, Raise the Red Lantern), it's one of Allen's most gorgeous and colorful films in years, buoyed by toe-tapping music and Penn's gruffly charming performance. --Sean Axmaker

Ahora o nunca - THE BUCKET LIST


Summary: Una pareja de enfermos terminales de cncer, de caracteres y mundos completamente opuestos (Edward Cole -Jack Nicholson- es un engredo millonario mientras que Carter Chambers -Morgan Freeman- es un modesto mecnico), decide hacer un ltimo viaje para poder realizar todas las cosas que desean hacer antes de morir. (FILMAFFINITY) You only live once, so why not go out in style? Thats what two cancer- ward roommates, an irascible billionaire (Jack Nicholson) and a scholarly mechanic (Morgan Freeman), decide when they get the bad news. They compose a bucket list things to do before you kick the bucket and head off for the around-the-world adventure of their lives. Sky dive? Check. Power a Shelby Mustang around a racetrack? Check.

Aladdin
Summary: Basada en el famoso cuento "Aladino y la lmpara maravillosa", la trama de esta pelcula se sita en el extico paisaje del mtico reino rabe de Agrabah. Aladdin es un ingenioso joven que vive en una extrema pobreza, soando con evadirse en su existencia callejera y casarse con la bella hija del sultn, la princesa Yasmin. El destino interviene cuando el astuto visir del Sultn, Yafar, recluta a Aladdin para que le ayude a recuperar la lmpara maravillosa de las profundidades de la Cueva de las Maravillas. Aladdin consigue alcanzar la lmpara. en la que vive un bromista genio que concede tres deseos a quien le libere. Aladdin se gana la enemistad del visir pero se hace amigo del genio, y con su ayuda se hace pasar por un rico y apuesto prncipe.

Con la ayuda de sus amigos Ab (su mono amaestrado), el Genio, y una alfombra voladora, Aladdin intentar salvar el reino del complot del malvado Yafar y lograr sus sueos. (FILMAFFINITY) Disney's 1992 animated feature is a triumph of wit and skill. The hightech artwork and graphics look great, the characters are strong, the familiar story is nicely augmented with an interesting villain (Jafar, voiced by Jonathan Freeman), and there's an incredible hook atop the whole thing: Robin Williams's frantically hilarious vocal performance as Aladdin's genie. Even if one isn't particularly moved by the love story between the title character (Scott Weinger) and his girlfriend Jasmine (Linda Larkin), you can easily get lost in Williams's improvisational energy and the equally entertaining performances of Freeman and Gilbert Gottfried (as Jafar's parrot). --Tom Keogh

Algo para recordar - SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE


Summary: Tras la muerte de su esposa, el arquitecto Sam Baldwin (Tom Hanks) no cree que pueda volver a encontrar el amor con otra mujer. Jonah, su hijo de ocho aos, cree que su padre necesita una mujer que reordene su vida, as que decide llamar a un programa de radio a nivel nacional, el da de Navidad, para contar su historia. Miles de mujeres le escuchan, y una de ellas es Annie Reed (Meg Ryan), que est a punto de casarse con su prometido Walter (Bill Pullman). Annie comienza a obsesionarse con la idea de que debe conocer a Sam para

comprobar que no es el hombre de su vida, antes de casarse con Walter. (FILMAFFINITY) The director and stars of 1998's You've Got Mail scoreda breakthrough hit with this hugely popular romantic comedy from 1993, about a recently engaged woman (Meg Ryan) who hears the sad story of a grieving widower (Tom Hanks) on the radio and believes that they're destined to be together. She's single in New York, he lives in Seattle with a young son, but the cross-country attraction proves irresistible, and pretty soon Meg's on a westbound flight. What happens from there is ... well, you must have been living in a cave to have let this sweet-hearted comedy slip below your pop-cultural radar. There's little complexity or depth to writer-director Nora Ephron's cheesy tale of a romantic fait accompli, and more than a little contrivance to the subplots that threaten to keep Hanks and Ryan from actually meeting. But the purity of star chemistry here is hard to deny, and this may be the first film to indicate the more serious and sympathetic side of Hanks that is revealed in later roles. With its clever jokes about "chick movies" and repeated homage to the classic weeper An Affair to Remember, this may not be everybody's brand of amorous entertainment, but it's got an old-Hollywood charm that appeals to many a movie fan. --Jeff Shannon

Amelie
Summary: Amelie no es una chica como las dems. Ha visto a su pez de colores deslizarse hacia las alcantarillas municipales, a su madre morir en la plaza de Notre-Dame y a su padre dedicar todo su afecto a un gnomo de jardn. De repente, a sus veintids aos, descubre su objetivo en la vida: arreglar la vida de los dems. A partir de entonces, inventa toda clase de estrategias para intervenir, sin que se den cuenta, en la existencia de varias personas de su entorno. Entre ellas est su portera, que pasa los das bebiendo vino de Oporto; Georgette, una estanquera hipocondraca: o "el hombre de cristal", un vecino que slo ve el mundo a travs de la reproduccin de un cuadro de Renoir. (FILMAFFINITY) Perhaps the most charming movie of all time, Amlie is certainly one of the top 10. The title character (the bashful and impish Audrey Tautou) is a single waitress who decides to help other lonely people fix their lives. Her widowed father yearns to travel but won't, so to inspire the old man she sends his garden gnome on a tour of the world; with whispered gossip, she brings together two cranky regulars at her caf; she reverses the doorknobs and reprograms the speed dial of a grocer who's mean to his assistant. Gradually she realizes her own life needs fixing, and a chance meeting leads to her most elaborate stratagem of all. This is a deeply wonderful movie, an illuminating mix of magic and pragmatism. Fans of the director's previous films (Delicatessen, The City of Lost Children) will not be disappointed; newcomers will be delighted. --Bret Fetzer

Angeles y demonios
Summary: El profesor de simbologa religiosa Robert Langdon se ve pronto sumido en la bsqueda de secretos de una antigua secta satnica denominada Illuminati y por la bsqueda del arma ms mortfera de la humanidad (antimateria) que estos han puesto en el Vaticano. Con unas pocas horas para evitar el desastre, unos misteriosos ambigramas y con un asesino que siempre lleva la delantera, Langdon y una cientfica italiana se ponen en una carrera contra el reloj... Tras "El cdigo da Vinci", Tom Hanks vuelve a interpretar el profesor Langdon en la adaptacin del segundo best-seller ms conocido de Dan Brown (autor que vendi los derechos de ambas novelas a la Sony, en el ao 2003). La direccin y la adaptacin vuelven a estar a cargo de Ron Howard y Akiva Goldsman, respectivamente. (FILMAFFINITY) If the devil is in the details, there's a lot of wicked fun in Angels & Demons, the sequel (originally a prequel) to The Da Vinci Code. Director Ron Howard delivers edge-of-your-pew thrills all over the Vatican, the City of Rome, and the deepest, dankest catacombs. Tom Hanks is dependably watchable in his reprised role as Professor Robert Langdon, summoned urgently to Rome on a matter of utmost urgency--which happens to coincide with the death of the Pope, meaning the Vatican is teeming with cardinals and Rome is teeming with the faithful. A religious offshoot group, calling themselves the Illuminati, which protested the Catholic Church's prosecution of scientists 400 years ago, has resurfaced and is making extreme, and gruesome, terrorist demands. The film zooms around the city, as Langdon follows clues embedded in art, architecture, and the very bone structure of the Vatican. The cast is terrific, including Ewan McGregor, who is memorable as a young protg of the late pontiff, and who seems to challenge the common wisdom of the Conclave just by being 40 years younger than his fellows when he lectures for church reform. Stellan Skarsgard is excellent as a gruff commander of the Swiss Guard, who may or may not have thrown in with the Illuminati. But the real star of the film is Rome, and its

High Church gorgeousness, with lush cinematography by Salvatore Totino, who renders the real sky above the Vatican, in a cataclysmic event, with the detail and majesty of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. --A.T. Hurley, Amazon.com Stills from Angels & Demons (click for larger image)

Asesinato en el Orient Express


Summary: Basada en una de las novelas ms conocidas de Agatha Christie, narra la historia de un asesinato ocurrido durante un viaje en el legendario tren Orient Express. El famoso detective Hercules Poirot (Albert Finney) investiga para desenmascarar al asesino de entre los ilustres pasajeros. Inmejorable reparto para un film con un Oscar (mejor actriz secundaria -Ingrid Bergman-) y 6 nominaciones (guin adaptado, actor principal -Finney-, actriz secundaria, fotografa, vestuario, msica drama). (FILMAFFINITY) Just the name "Orient Express" conjures images of a bygone era. Add an all-star cast (including Sean Connery, Ingrid Bergman, Jacqueline Bisset, and Lauren Bacall, to name a few) and Agatha Christie's delicious plot and how can you go wrong? Particularly if you add in Albert Finney as Christie's delightfully persnickety sleuth, Hercule Poirot. Someone has knocked off nasty Richard Widmark on this train trip and, to Poirot's puzzlement, everyone seems to have a motive--just the setup for a terrific whodunit. Though it seems like an ensemble film, director Sidney Lumet gives each of his stars their own solo and each makes the most of it. Bergman went so far as to win an Oscar for her role. But the real scene-stealer is the ever-reliable Finney as the eccentric detective who never misses a trick. --Marshall Fine

ATRAPADO EN EL TIEMPO - GROUNDHOG DAY


Summary: Bill Murray does warmth in his most consistently effective post-Stripes comedy, a romantic fantasy about a wacky weatherman forced to relive one strange day over and over again, until he gets it right. Snowed in during a road-trip expedition to watch the famous groundhog encounter his shadow, Murray falls into a time warp that is never explained but pays off so richly that it doesn't need to be. The elaborate loop-the-loop plot structure cooked up by screenwriter Danny Rubin is crystal-clear every step of the way, but it's Murray's worldclass reactive timing that makes the jokes explode, and we end up looking forward to each new variation. He squeezes all the available juice out of every scene. Without forcing the issue, he makes us understand why this fly-away personality responds so intensely to the radiant sanity of the TV producer played by Andie MacDowell. The blissfully clueless Chris Elliott (Cabin Boy) is Murray's nudnik cameraman. -David Chute

BABEL
Summary: In Babel, a tragic incident involving an American couple in Morocco sparks a chain of events for four families in different countries throughout the world. In the struggle to overcome isolation, fear, and displacement, each character discovers that it is family that ultimately provides solace. In the remote sands of the Moroccan desert, a rifle shot rings out-- detonating a chain of events that will link an American tourist couples frantic struggle to survive, two Moroccan boys involved in an accidental crime, a nanny illegally crossing into Mexico with two American children, and a Japanese teen rebel whose father is sought by the police in Tokyo. Separated by clashing cultures and sprawling distances, each of these four disparate groups of people are nevertheless hurtling towards a shared destiny of isolation and grief. In the course of just a few days, they will each face the dizzying sensation of becoming profoundly lost lost in the desert, lost to the world, lost to themselves as they are pushed to the farthest edges of confusion and fear as well as to the very depths of connection and love. In this mesmerizing, emotional film that was shot in three continents and four languages and traverses both the deeply personal and the explosively political -- acclaimed director Alejandro Gonzlez Irritu (21 Grams, Amores Perros) explores with shattering realism the nature of the barriers that seem to separate humankind. In doing so, he evokes the ancient concept of Babel and questions its modern day implications: the mistaken identities, misunderstandings and missed chances for communication that-- though often unseen-- drive our contemporary lives. Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett, Gael Garca Bernal, Kji Yakusho, Adriana Barraza and Rinko Kikuchi lead an international ensemble of actors and non-professional actors from Morocco, Tijuana and Tokyo, who enrich Babels take on cultural diversity and enhance its powerful examination of the links and frontiers between and within us.

(FILMAFFINITY) A sad, melancholy ache pervades Brokeback Mountain, Ang Lee's haunting, moving film that, like his other movies, explores societal constraints and the passions that lurk underneath. This time, however, instead of taking on ancient China, 19thcentury England, or '70s suburbia, Lee uses the tableau of the American West in the early '60s to show how two lovers are bound by their expected roles, how they rebel against them, and the repercussions for each of doing so--but the romance here is between two men. Ennis Del Mar (Heath Ledger) and Jack Twist (Jake Gyllenhaal) are two itinerant ranchers looking for work in Wyoming when they meet and embark on a summer sheepherding job in the shadow of titular Brokeback Mountain. The taciturn Ennis, uncommunicative in the extreme, finds himself opening up around the gregarious Jack, and the two form a bond that surprisingly catches fire one cold night out in the wilderness. Separating at the end of the summer, each goes on to marry and have children, but a reunion years later proves that, if anything, their passion for each other has grown significantly. And while Jack harbors dreams of a life together, the tight-lipped Ennis is unable to bring himself to even consider something so revolutionary. Its open, unforced depiction of love between two men made Brokeback an instant cultural touchstone, for both good and bad, as it was tagged derisively as the "gay cowboy movie," but also heralded as a breakthrough for mainstream cinema. Amidst all the hoopla of various agendas, though, was a quiet, heartbreaking love story that was both of its time and universal--it was the quintessential tale of star-crossed lovers, but grounded in an ever-changing America that promised both hope and despair. Adapted by Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana from Annie Proulx's short story, the movie echoes the sparse bleakness of McMurtry's The Last Picture Show with its fading of the once-glorious West; but with Lee at the helm, it also resembles The Ice Storm, as it showed the ripple effects of a singular event over a number of people. As always, Lee's work with actors is unparalleled, as he elicits graceful, nuanced performances from Michelle Williams and Anne Hathaway as the wives affected overtly and subliminally by their husbands' affair, and Gyllenhaal brings surprising dimensions to a character that could have easily just been a puppy dog of a boy. It's Ledger, however, who's the breakthrough in the film, and his portrait of an emotionally repressed man both undone and liberated by his feelings is mesmerizing and devastating. Spare in style but rich with emotion, Brokeback Mountain earns its place as a classic modern love story. --Mark Englehart

CAMINO A LA PERDICION
Summary: En los oscuros aos de la Gran Depresin, Michael Sullivan se debate entre la lealtad inquebrantable a su jefe, el Sr. Rooney, y su propia familia. Son tiempos duros en Rock Island, donde la mafia irlandesa impone su ley. La prohibicin sigue estando vigente y gngsteres

como Al Capone estn en la cima de su poder. A pesar de todo, Michael Sullivan lleva una buena vida, pagada a base de violencia y de sangre. (FILMAFFINITY) In Road to Perdition, Tom Hanks plays a hit man who finds his heart. Michael Sullivan (Hanks) is the right-hand man of crime boss John Rooney (Paul Newman), but when Sullivan's son accidentally witnesses one of his hits, he must choose between his crime family and his real one. The movie has a slow pace, largely because director Sam Mendes (American Beauty) seems to be in love with the gorgeous period locations. Hanks gives a deceptively battened-down performance at first, only opening up toward the very end of the film, making his character's personal transformation all the more convincing. Newman turns in a masterful piece of work, revealing Rooney's advancing age but at the same time, his terrifying power. Jude Law is also a standout, playing a hit man-photographer with chilling creepiness. This movie requires a little patience, but the beautiful cinematography and moving ending make it well worth the wait. --Ali Davis

CANTADO BAJO LA LLUVIA


Summary: Antes de conocer a la aspirante a actriz Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds), el dolo del cine mudo Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) pensaba que lo tena todo; fama, fortuna y xito. Pero, tras conocerla, se da cuenta de que ella es lo que realmente faltaba en su vida. Con el nacimiento del cine sonoro, Don quiere filmar los musicales con Kathy, pero entre ambos se interpone la reina del cine mudo Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen). (FILMAFFINITY) Decades before the Hollywood film industry became famous for megabudget disaster and science fiction spectaculars, the studios of Southern California (and particularly Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer) were renowned for a uniquely American (and nearly extinct) kind of picture known as The Musical. Indeed, when the prestigious British film magazine Sight & Sound conducts its international critics poll in the second year of every decade, this 1952 MGM picture is the American musical that consistently ranks among the 10 best movies ever made. It's not only a great song-and-dance piece starring Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor, and a sprightly Debbie Reynolds; it's also an affectionately funny insider spoof about the film industry's uneasy transition from silent pictures to "talkies." Kelly plays debonair star Don Lockwood, whose leading lady Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen) has a screechy voice hilariously ill-suited to the new technology (and her glamorous screen image). Among the musical highlights: O'Connor's knockout "Make 'Em Laugh"; the big "Broadway Melody" production number; and, best of all, that charming little title ditty in which Kelly makes movie magic on a drenched set with nothing but a few puddles, a lamppost, and an umbrella. --Jim Emerson

CASABLANCA

CAZAFANTASMAS
Summary: Los Drs. Venkman, Stantz y Epengler, son tres doctores en parapsicologa que se quedan sin empleo tras quedar excluidos de una beca universitaria de investigacin. Entonces deciden formar la empresa "Los Cazafantasmas", dedicada a limpiar Nueva York de ectoplasmas. El aumento repentino de apariciones espectrales en la Gran Manzana ser el presagio de la llegada de un peligroso y poderoso demonio. (FILMAFFINITY) Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis wrote the script, but Bill Murray gets all the best lines and moments in this 1984 comedy directed by Ivan Reitman (Meatballs). The three comics, plus Ernie Hudson, play the New York City-based team that provides supernatural pest control, and Sigourney Weaver is the love interest possessed by an ancient demon. Reitman and company are full of original ideas about hobgoblins--who knew they could "slime" people with green plasma goo?--but hovering above the plot is Murray's patented ironic view of all the action. Still a lot of fun, and an obvious model for sci-fi comedies such as Men in Black. --Tom Keogh

(FILMAFFINITY) Giuseppe Tornatore's beautiful 1988 film about a little boy's love affair with the movies deservedly won an Oscar for Best Foreign Film and a Special Jury Prize at Cannes. Philippe Noiret plays a grizzled old projectionist who takes pride in his presentation of screen dreams for a town still recovering from World War II. When a child (Jacques Perrin) demonstrates fascination not only for movies but also for the process of showing them to an audience, a lifelong friendship is struck. This isn't just one of those films for people who are already in love with the cinema. But if you are one of those folks, the emotional resonance between the action in Tornatore's world and the images on Noiret's screen will seem all the greater--and the finale all the more powerful. --Tom Keogh

Clash of titans CLERKS

Summary: El novato Kevin Smith "conect" con millones de jvenes en esta ingeniosa comedia de dilogos explcitos, polticamente incorrecta, deslenguada, espontnea, baratsima (su presupuesto: 27.000 dlares), tan divertida como vulgar y con mucho ritmo. Todo un descubrimiento de los circuitos independientes que permiti a su director dar el salto al cine comercial -donde afortunadamente no perdi su irreverencia-. "Clerks" es delirantemente soez... o lo que es lo mismo: jodidamente divertida. (Pablo Kurt: FILMAFFINITY) If you're in the market for wildly funny entertainment, CLERKS delivers with wholesale hilarity! It's one wacky day in the life of a pair of overworked counter jockeys whose razor-sharp wit and on-the-job antics give a whole new meaning to customer service! Even while bracing a nonstop parade of unpredictable shoppers, the clerks manage to play hockey on the roof, visit a funeral home, and straighten out their offbeat love lives! The boss is nowhere in sight, so you can bet anything can -- and will -- happen when these guys are left to run the store.

Com entranar a tu dragon


Summary: Ambientada en el mtico mundo de los rudos vikingos y los dragones salvajes, y basada en el libro infantil de Cressida Cowell, esta comedia de accin narra la historia de Hipo, un vikingo adolescente que no encaja exactamente en la antiqusima reputacin de su tribu como cazadores de dragones. El mundo de Hipo se trastoca al encontrar a un dragn que le desafa a l y a sus compaeros vikingos, a ver el mundo desde un punto de vista totalmente diferente. (FILMAFFINITY) A winning mixture of adventure, slapstick comedy, and friendship, How to Train Your Dragon rivals Kung Fu Panda as the most engaging and satisfying film DreamWorks Animation has produced. Hiccup (voice by Jay Baruchel) is a failure as a Viking: skinny, inquisitive, and inventive, he asks questions and tries out unsuccessful contraptions when he's supposed to be fighting the dragons that attack his village. His father, chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler), has pretty much given up on his teenage son and apprenticed him to blacksmith Gobber (Craig Ferguson). Worse, Hiccup knows the village loser hasn't a chance of impressing Astrid (America Ferrera), the girl of his dreams and a formidable dragon fighter in her own right. When one of Hiccup's inventions actually works, he hasn't the heart to kill the young dragon he's brought down. He names it Toothless and befriends it, although he's been taught to fear and loathe dragons. Co-directors and co-writers Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, who made Disney's delightful Lilo and Stitch, provide plenty of action, including vertiginous flying sequences, but they balance the pyrotechnics with moments of genuine warmth that make the viewer root for Hiccup's success. Many DreamWorks films get laughs from sitcom one-liners and topical pop culture references; as the humour in Dragon comes from the characters' personalities, it feels less timely and more timeless. Toothless chases the spot of sunlight reflected off Hiccup's hammer like a giant cat with a laser pointer; Hiccup uses his newly found knowledge (and an icky smoked eel) to defeat two small dragons--and impress the other kids. How to Train Your Dragon will be just as enjoyable 10 or 20 years from now as it is today. --Charles Solomon

Cmo perder a un chico en 10 das


Summary: Andie Anderson escribe la columna "How To" en la revista Composure. Debe terminar un reportaje muy poco usual y tiene muy poco tiempo para conseguirlo. Se trata de escribir, basndose en experiencias de primera mano, sobre todas esas cosas que hacen las mujeres para alejar a los hombres de su lado sin querer y debe tenerlo listo en diez das. Su misin es encontrar a un chico, hacer que se enamore de ella y luego provocar todos los errores tpicos que pueden suceder cuando se tiene una cita, para que el chico pase de ella. La pena es que el sujeto que elige como blanco es el cotizado soltero Benjamin Barry, que precisamente acaba de apostar con el director de la agencia de publicidad en donde trabaja que es capaz de hacer que una mujer se enamore de l en diez das. (FILMAFFINITY) Kate Hudson twinkles as the heroine of How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, a magazine writer assigned to date a guy, make all the mistakes girls make that drive guys away (being clingy, talking in baby-talk, etc.), and record the process like a sociological experiment. However, the guy she picks--rangy Matthew McConaughey--is an advertising executive who's just bet that he can make a woman fall in love with him in ten days; if he succeeds, he'll win a huge account that will make his career. The set-up is completely absurd, but the collision of their efforts to woo and repel creates some pretty funny scenes. McConaughey's easy charm and Hudson's lightweight impishness play well together and the plot, though strictly Hollywood formula, chugs along efficiently. At moments Hudson seems to channel her mother, Goldie Hawn, to slightly unnerving effect. --Bret Fetzer

CUBA UN PARAISO BAJO LAS ESTRELLAS Cuento de Navidad


Summary: Ebenezer Scrooge (Jim Carrey) comienza las vacaciones de Navidad con su habitual actitud despreciativa y bruscos modales cuando habla con su fiel empleado Bob Cratchit (Gary Oldman) y con su alegre sobrino (Colin Firth). Pero cuando los espritus de las Navidades pasadas, presentes y futuras lo llevan en un esclarecedor viaje que le revela verdades que l se resiste a ver, el viejo Scrooge finalmente deber abrir su corazn y compensar aos de rencor antes de que sea demasiado tarde... Adaptacin del clsico de Charles Dickens, utilizando la misma tcnica de animacin que en "Polar Express" y "Beowulf". (FILMAFFINITY) Fans of Robert Zemeckis's brilliant special effects, and of Jim Carrey's transformative acting abilities, will be swept away by their collaboration in the stunning A Christmas Carol. Perhaps more surprising is that Charles Dickens purists will also be impressed and captivated by this version of the oft-told tale--which is dark, complex, and in its way, uncompromising. Which is all to say that this Christmas Carol is an instant holiday classic, easily taking its place alongside the Alistair Sim version, the Patrick Stewart version, and even the Mr. Magoo version of the tale of Ebenezer Scrooge and his ultimate holiday redemption. Carrey is dazzling as not only Scrooge, the most miserable, and miserly, man in 19th-century England, but as the Ghosts of Christmases Past, Present, and Future. As with The Polar Express, Zemeckis animates the film over the actors' physical performances onscreen, but here, the emotion is intact--even heightened by the brilliant effects. Joining Carrey in the cast are terrific players, including Gary Oldman (Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim, and the ghost of Marley), Cary Elwes, Bob Hoskins, and Robin Wright Penn. But the heart of the film is Carrey, whose dramatic acting has shone in films like The Truman Show and Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events. The emotional connection Carrey makes with his characters is what brings Dickens's classic alive--and what connects the viewer with the true spirit of the holidays. "God bless us, every one". --A.T. Hurley

CHE

The film opens with Che as one of the important figures in the growing Cuban rebellion led by Fidel Castro (Demin Bichir). The movie charts how the two successfully built an underground army large enough to successfully overthrow the government of Fulgencio Batista.;;Che: Guerrilla;Nearly four and a half hours long, spanning more than a decade and reconstructing a pair of brutal insurgencies, "Che" surely deserves the overworked, frequently misapplied name of epic. Steven Soderbergh's new film, a two-part portrait of the Argentine doctor-turned-international revolutionary Ernesto Guevara (it opens in limited release as one film on Friday and as two films early next year), plants itself squarely in an old tradition of martial poetry: it sings of arms and the man. But in chronicling the deeds of their hero - and the heroism of Ernesto Guevara is not something "Che" has any interest in questioning - Mr. Soderbergh and the screenwriter, Peter Buchman, restrict themselves to a narrow register of themes and effects. This is a very long song composed in about three notes. Its motifs are facial hair, tobacco smoke and earnest militant bombast.

Chocolat
Summary: Todo empieza en la muy tradicional poblacin francesa de Lansquenet, donde la vida no ha cambiado nada en los ltimos cien aos. Mientras el Viento del Norte arrecia en esta ciudad aparentemente tranquila, trae consigo a la viajera Vianne Rocher (Juliette Binoche) y a su hija Anouk (Victoire Thivisol). Vianne es una forastera que inaugura una chocolatera repleta de dulces capaces de despertar los ocultos apetitos de los residentes. Y he aqu que su poder mgico para percibir los deseos privados de los lugareos y para satisfacerles con el dulce exacto seduce lentamente a unos cuantos, que se abandonan a las tentaciones de Vianne. (FILMAFFINITY) Import from the Netherlands, which plays in English. Chocolat is an enchanting, moving and heart-warming tale of love and temptation, a big-budget movie with its roots in European art house cinema. Magical and almost fairytale-like in theme, it's the story of the mysterious Vianne and her arrival in a quiet, old-fashioned French town at the end of the 1950s. Gradually her attitude to life and the delicacies that she prepares in her chocolate shop have a marked effect on the local people, bound as they are by the twin forces of religion and politics. Juliette Binoche is perfect in the role of the sensuous, captivating Vianne--a masterstroke of casting matched by the performance of Judi Dench as the splendidly grumpy but ultimately inspiring matriarch Armande. Very much an ensemble piece, the whole cast are indeed excellent, with Johnny Depp (making a fair fist of an Irish accent) superb as the drifter Roux, the one man capable of unlocking Vianne's own desires. From its majestic opening swoop to the final, joyous scene, Lasse Hallstrm's film, based on the bestselling novel, is nothing short of a masterpiece.

The Da Vinci Code


Summary: El catedrtico y afamado simbologista Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) se ve obligado a acudir una noche al Museo del Louvre, cuando el asesinato de un conservador deja tras de s un misterioso rastro de smbolos y pistas. Con su propia vida en juego, Langdon, ayudado por la criptgrafa de la polica Sophie Neveu (Audrey Tautou), descubre una serie de asombrosos secretos ocultos en la obra de Leonardo Da Vinci, secretos que apuntan todos a una sociedad secreta encargada de custodiar un antiguo secreto que ha permanecido oculto durante dos mil aos... (FILMAFFINITY) Dan Brown's international bestseller comes alive in the film The Da Vinci Code, directed by Ron Howard with a screenplay by Akiva Goldsman. Join symbologist Robert Langdon (Academy Award Winner Tom Hanks, 1993 Best Actor, Philadelphia, and 1994 Best Actor, Forrest Gump) and cryptologist Sophie Neveu (Audrey Tautou) in their heart-racing quest to solve a bizarre murder mystery that will take them from France to England and behind the veil of a mysterious ancient society, where they discover a secret protected since the time of Christ.

Desayuno con diamantes


Summary: Holly Golightly es una bella joven de la alta sociedad neoyorquina que bajo su vida alegre esconde una gran tristeza. Holly tiene un comportamiento algo alocado, y alguna mana, como por ejemplo desayunar contemplando el escaparate de la lujosa joyera Tiffanys. Un da se muda a su mismo edificio Paul Varjak, un escritor en ciernes que mientras espera alcanzar un xito que nunca llega vive de la relacin con una mujer madura que le mantiene. Holly y Paul enseguida entablarn una bonita amistad. (FILMAFFINITY) No film better utilises Audrey Hepburn's flighty charm and svelte beauty than this romantic adaptation of Truman Capote's novella. Hepburn's urban sophisticate Holly Golightly, an enchanting neurotic living off the gifts of gentlemen, is a bewitching figure in designer dresses and costume jewellery. George Peppard is her upstairs neighbour, a struggling writer and "kept" man financed by a steely older woman (Patricia Neal). His growing friendship with the lonely Holly soon turns to love and threatens the delicate balance of both of their compromised lives. Taking liberties with Capote's bittersweet story, director Blake Edwards and screenwriter George Axelrod turn New York into a city of lovers and create a poignant portrait of Holly, a frustrated romantic with a secret past and a hidden vulnerability. Composer Henry Mancini earned Oscars for the hit song "Moon River" and his tastefully romantic score. The only sour note in the whole film is Mickey Rooney's demeaning performance as the apartment's Japanese manager, an offensively overdone stereotype even in 1961. The rest of the film has weathered the decades well. Edwards's elegant yet light touch, Axelrod's generous screenplay and Hepburn's mix of knowing experience and naivety combine to create one of the great screen romances and a refined slice of high-society bohemian chic. --Sean Axmaker

DESMONTANDO A HARRY
Summary: Harry Block es un escritor de xito de mediana edad que con frecuencia ha utilizado sus experiencias sentimentales y familiares para escribir sus obras. Como resultado, la mayor parte de sus amigos, sus parientes y sus ex-mujeres, que se han visto reflejados y deformados en sus personajes, le odian. Por ello le resulta complicado encontrar a alguien que le acompae en el viaje que ha de llevarle a su vieja universidad, que va a rendirle un homenaje. (FILMAFFINITY) Woody Allen roared back at his detractors with Deconstructing Harry, a bitterly funny treatise about the creative process. Known to mine his often tumultuous personal life for his movies, the embattled writerdirector-star didn't bother to make his alter ego likable in this movie: Harry Block (Allen) pops pills, frequents prostitutes, and cheats on the women in his life, then writes about their foibles in thinly disguised fiction. No wonder they're all furious with him. As Harry journeys to his alma mater with a hooker, ill pal, and kidnapped son, a series of flashbacks unravel, juxtaposing Harry's relationships with their "slightly exaggerated" fictional counterparts. There are amusing cameos throughout, including a humorous turn by Demi Moore as a fictitious ex-wife who "became Jewish with a vengeance," and Billy Crystal as the devil who found Hollywood too nasty for his liking. The humor is dark and caustic, but well worth it; Deconstructing Harry is a near-brilliant mediation on the sometimes queasy relationship between art, creator, and critic. --Diane Garrett

Dos hombres y un destino


Summary: Un grupo de jvenes pistoleros se dedica a asaltar los bancos del estado de Wyoming y el correo ferroviario de la Unin Pacific. El jefe de la banda es el carismtico Butch Cassidy, y su principal e inseparable compaero es Sundance Kid, otra de las pistolas ms rpidas

del Oeste. Un da, tras un atraco, el grupo es perseguido por los comisarios de la Unin Pacific, provocando su disolucin. Ser entonces cuando Butch, Sundance y una guapa maestra de Denver llamada Etta Place formen un tro de romnticos fugitivos que, robando por oficio y divirtindose con el riesgo, tienen siempre a la ley pisndoles los talones, lo que provoca que salgan de Estados Unidos viajando hasta Bolivia. (FILMAFFINITY) This 1969 film has never lost its popularity or its unusual appeal as a star-driven Western that tinkers with the genre's conventions and comes up with something both terrifically entertaining and--typical of its period--a tad paranoid. Paul Newman plays the legendary outlaw Butch Cassidy as an eternal optimist and self-styled visionary, conjuring dreams of banks just ripe for the picking all over the world. Robert Redford is his more levelheaded partner, the sharpshooting Sundance Kid. The film, written by William Goldman (The Princess Bride) and directed by George Roy Hill (The Sting), basically begins as a freewheeling story about robbing trains but soon becomes a chase as a relentless posse--always seen at a great distance like some remote authority--forces Butch and Sundance into the hills and, finally, Bolivia. Weakened a little by feel-good inclinations (a scene involving bicycle tricks and the song "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head" is sort of Hollywood flower power), the movie maintains an interesting tautness, and the chemistry between Redford and Newman is rare. (A factoid: Newman first offered the Sundance part to Jack Lemmon.) --Tom Keogh

DRAGONBALL EVOLUTION
Summary: Libre adaptacin cinematogrfica de la conocida serie de TV, basada a su vez en un famoso manga. Su argumento se centra en la adolescencia de Goku (Justin Chatwin) y en su enfrentamiento a muerte con Piccolo (James Marsters). Con un presupuesto de 100 millones de dlares, tuvo muy malas crticas por parte de la crtica y de los fans. (FILMAFFINITY)

DRAGONES Y MAZMORRAS
Summary: Profion, un mago maligno, est tramando destronar la nueva emperadora de un pas mstico. Ella recluta un grupo de aventureros y un pcaro para encontrar un artefacto mgico que frustrar el plan del mago. Este artefacto, la Barra del Contrl del Dragn, da al portador la habilidad de controlar dragones. Pero el mago maligno tambin envia a sus ayudantes para traerle la Barra. La carrera empieza para conseguir este instrumento mgico o todo el reinado ser vctima de la mgia de Profion. Existe un mundo donde todo es posible... Un mundo lleno de magia y peligros en el que los hombres y las ms extraas criaturas conviven sometidos a las eternas luchas entre el bien y el mal. (FILMAFFINITY) There is trouble in Izmer. With the emperor dead from an assassin's poison, the 16-year-old princess Savina (Thora Birch) inherits not just the throne but also the royal scepter, which has the power to command gold dragons. With a youthful idealism, she decides all people should be equal, from lowly commoners to the ruling-class, magic-wielding mages. This doesn't sit well with the mages, so Archmage Profion (Jeremy Irons) leads a revolt in the Council against Savina's rule, forcing her to relinquish the royal scepter. In order to maintain her power, she decides she needs the rod of Savrille, which can control red dragons. To retrieve it, she hires two bumbling thieves, Ridley (Justin Whalin) and Snails (Marlon Wayans), and an apprentice mage (Zoe McLellan). The true trouble in Izmer is the fact that it's a poorly imagined world that cribs more from Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark than it does from the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game that shares its title. Director Courtney Solomon optioned the rights to the game in 1991, when he was 21, and should have spent the years since then drafting a coherent script. Mediocre special effects take precedence over story, and the actors try to make up for that by hamming it up. Irons, in particular, covers his embarrassment by chewing the scenery and spitting it out. Often unintentionally funny,

Dungeons & Dragons is that fun kind of bad movie, whose cult status would be all but guaranteed if it weren't for a slow second act mired in the boring bumbling of the awkward thieves. Still, there are plenty of laughs to be had. --Andy Spletzer

Dreamgirls
Summary: Ambientada en los aos sesenta y setenta, narra La historia de del ascenso de un tro de mujeres: Effie, Deena y Lorrell, que han formado un grupo prometedor llamado The Dreamettes.

Poco a poco, Curtis empieza a controlar el aspecto fsico y la msica de las chicas para acabar lanzndolas como The Dreams. Pero los focos no tardan en centrarse en Deena, olvidando e incluso apartando a la menos atractiva Effie. A pesar de que The Dreams se convierten en un autntico fenmeno de costa a costa, no tardan en darse cuenta de que el precio de la fama y de la fortuna es mucho ms elevado de lo que imaginaban... (FILMAFFINITY) Director brings Tom Eyen's Tony award-winning Broadway musical to the big screen in a tale of dreams, stardom, and the high cost of success in the cutthroat recording industry. The time is the 1960s, and singers Effie (Jennifer Hudson), Lorrell (Anika Noni Rose), and Deena (Beyonc Knowles) are about to find out just what it's like to have their wildest dreams come true.

Duck Soup
Summary: La Repblica Democrtica de Freedonia, un pequeo pas centroeuropeo, a cuyo frente se encuentra el muy liberal seor Rufus T. Firefly, se ve amenazada por la dictadura de Sylvania, pas de vieja y reconocida solvencia como agresor. Dos espas de prestigio, Chicolini y Pinky, sirven a Sylvania, lo que no impide que acaben siendo ministros del ahora ya excelentsimo Firefly. (FILMAFFINITY) A pointed political satire, Duck Soup is the Marx Brothers funniest and most insane film. Groucho is Rufus T. Firefly, the hilarious dictator of mythical Freedonia. Harpo and Chico are commissioned as spies by Grouchos political rival, the calculating Trentino (Louis Calhern). The film contains many of the Brothers famous sequences: the lemonade stand, a masterpiece of slow burn: the Paul Revere p...arody; the 'Were Going To War' number, a beautiful spoof of 1930s musicals; the hilarious mirror scene; and a final battle episode that has been copied by everyone from Woody Allen to Mad Magazine.

El asesinato de Jesse James por el cobarte Robert Ford


Summary: Narra la historia del ms famoso forajido del oeste americano, el carismtico e impredecible pistolero Jesse James (Brad Pitt), un bandolero sudista hijo de un predicador. Mientras Jesse planea su prximo gran robo, declara la guerra a sus enemigos, quienes intentan hacerse con la recompensa -y la gloria- que implicara su captura. Pero la amenaza ms importante a su vida puede que venga de aquellos en quienes ms confia... (FILMAFFINITY) Everyone in 1880s America knows Jesse James.

El bueno, el feo y el malo


Summary: Los protagonistas son tres cazadores de recompensas, en la bsqueda de un tesoro que ninguno de los tres truhanes puede localizar sin la ayuda de los otros dos. De esta forma, los tres hombres colaboran en apariencia, pero est bien claro que al final intentarn eliminarse mutuamente. (FILMAFFINITY) By far the most ambitious, unflinchingly graphic and stylistically influential western ever mounted, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is an engrossing actioner shot through with a volatile mix of myth and realism. Clint Eastwood returns as the "Man With No Name," this time teaming with two gunslingers (Eli Wallach and Lee Van Cleef) to pursue a cache of $200,000and letting no one, not even warring factions in a civil war, stand in their way. From sun-drenched panoramas to bold,hard closeups, exceptional camera work captures the beauty and cruelty of the barren landscape andthe hardened characters who stride unwaveringly through it. Forging a vibrant and yet detached style of action that had not been seen before, and has never been matched since, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly shatters the western mold in true Clint Eastwood style.

El curioso caso de Benjamin Button


Summary: Historia de un hombre que nace como un viejo y cumple aos hacia atrs en el tiempo, con extraas consecuencias. "Nac en circunstancias inusuales", as comienza "El Curioso Caso de Benjamin Button", una adaptacin de la historia de los aos 20 del siglo pasado escrita por F.

Summary: Las investigaciones llevadas a cabo por el climatlogo Jack Hall indican que el calentamiento global del planeta podra desencadenar un repentino y catastrfico cambio climtico de la Tierra.

El Diario de Bridget Jones

Summary: Bridget Jones es una treintaera soltera convencida de que todo el mundo se lo monta bien menos ella. Tiene pocas ambiciones: solo quiere perder peso y encontrar el amor verdadero. Pero parece una meta imposible, Su vida sentimental est en perpetua crisis. As que, como propsito de Ao Nuevo, Bridget decide empezar a controlar su vida y empezar a escribir su diario. Aunque sus amigos Judi, Shanon y Tom le prestan intilmente todo tipo de consejos en contra, Bridget se encuentra pronto dividida entre dos hombres. Por un lado, su jefe Daniel Cleaver, encantador y sexy pero peligroso, y un viejo amigo de la familia, Mark Darcy, que parece en un principio reservado y aburrido pero que acaba revelando su verdadera personalidad. (FILMAFFINITY) Featuring a blowzy, winningly inept size-12 heroine, Bridget Jones's Diary is a fetching adaptation of Helen Fielding's runaway bestseller, grittier than Ally McBeal but sweeter than Sex and the City. The normally sylphlike Rene Zellweger (Nurse Betty, Me, Myself and Irene) wolfed pasta to gain poundage to play "singleton" Bridget, a London-based publicist who divides her free time between binge eating in front of the TV, downing Chardonnay with her friends, and updating the diary in which she records her negligible weight fluctuations and romantic misadventures of the year. Things start off badly at Christmas when her mother tries to set her up with seemingly standoffish lawyer Mark Darcy (Colin Firth), whom Bridget accidentally overhears dissing her. Instead she embarks on a disastrous liaison with her raffish boss, Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant, infinitely more likeable when he's playing a baddie instead of his patented tongue-tied fops). Eventually, Bridget comes to wonder if she's let her pride prejudice her against the surprisingly attractive Mr. Darcy. If the plot sounds familiar, that's because Fielding's novel was itself a retelling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, whose romantic male lead is also named Mr. Darcy. An extra ironic poke in the ribs is added by the casting of Firth, who played Austen's haughty hero in the acclaimed BBC adaptation of Austen's novel. First-time director Sharon Maguire directs with confident comic zest, while Zellweger twinkles charmingly, fearlessly baring her cellulite and pulling off a spot-on English accent. Like Four Weddings and a Funeral and Notting Hill (both of which were written by this film's coscreenwriter, Richard Curtis), Bridget Jones's stock-in-trade is a very English self-deprecating sense of humor, a mild suspicion of Americans (especially if they're thin and successful), and a subtly expressed analysis of thirtysomething fears about growing up and becoming a "smug married." The whole is, as Bridget would say, v. good. --Leslie Felperin

El graduado
Summary: Benjamin Braddock (Dustin Hoffman) es un joven estudiante que acaba de graduarse y que tiene una aventura con una mujer casada, la Sra. Robinson (Anne Bancroft), amiga de la familia. Lo que el joven no espera es enamorarse de, Elaine (Katharine Ross), la hija de esta mujer, tras una cita concertada por sus padres. (FILMAFFINITY) Few films have defined a generation as much as The Graduate did. The alienation, the nonconformity, the intergenerational romance, the blissful Simon and Garfunkel soundtrack--they all served to lob a cultural grenade smack into the middle of 1967 America, ultimately making the film the third most profitable up to that time. Seen from a later perspective, its radical chic has dimmed a bit, yet it's still a joy to see Dustin Hoffman's bemused Benjamin and Anne Bancroft's deliciously decadent, sardonic Mrs Robinson. The script by Buck Henry and Calder Willingham is still offbeat and dryly funny and Mike Nichols, who won an Oscar for his direction, has just the right, light touch. --Anne Hurley, Amazon.com

El gran dictador
Summary: Un humilde barbero judo tiene un parecido asombroso con el dictador de la nacin Tomania, que promete sacar adelante y que culpa a los judos de la situacin del pas. El dictador ataca al pas fronterizo, pero es confundido con el barbero por sus propios guardias, siendo ingresado en un campo de concentracin. Simultneamente, el pobre barbero es confundido con el dictador... (FILMAFFINITY) Since Adolf Hitler had the audacity to borrow his mustache from the most famous celebrity in the world--Charlie Chaplin--it meant Hitler was fair game for Chaplin's comedy. (Strangely, the two men were born within four days of each other.) The Great Dictator, conceived in the late thirties but not released until 1940, when Hitler's war was raging across Europe, is the film that skewered the tyrant. Chaplin plays both Adenoid Hynkel, the power-mad ruler of Tomania, and a humble Jewish barber suffering under the dictator's rule. Paulette Goddard, Chaplin's wife at the time, plays the barber's beloved; and the rotund comedian Jack Oakie turns in a weirdly accurate burlesque of Mussolini, as a bellowing fellow dictator named Benzino Napaloni, Dictator of Bacteria. Chaplin himself hits one of his highest moments in the amazing sequence where he performs a dance of love with a large inflated globe of the world. Never has the hunger for world domination been more

rhapsodically expressed. The slapstick is swift and sharp, but it was not enough for Chaplin. He ends the film with the barber's six-minute speech calling for peace and prophesying a hopeful future for troubled mankind. Some critics have always felt the monologue was out of place, but the lyricism and sheer humanity of it are still stirring. This was the last appearance of Chaplin's Little Tramp character, and not coincidentally it was his first all-talking picture. --Robert Horton

El gran Lebowski
Summary: El Nota (Jeff Bridges) es una vago que vive en los Angeles y que un da es confundido por un par de matones con el millonario Jeff Lebowski. Tras propinarle una paliza y orinarle en la alfombra, El Nota iniciara la bsqueda de El Gran Lebowski para que le compre una alfombra nueva. De su encuentro surgir un trato por el que el gran Lebowski ofrece a El Nota una recompensa para que encuentre a su mujer. (FILMAFFINITY) After the tight plotting and quirky intensity of Fargo, this casually amusing follow-up from the prolifically inventive Coen (Ethan and Joel) brothers seems like a bit of a lark, and the result was a box-office disappointment. The good news is, The Big Lebowski is every bit a Coen movie, and its lazy plot is part of its laidback charm. After all, how many movies can claim as their hero a potbellied, pot-smoking loser named Jeff "The Dude" Lebowski (Jeff Bridges) who spends most of his time bowling and getting stoned? And where else could you find a hairnetted Latino bowler named Jesus (John Turturro) who sports dazzling purple footgear, or an erotic artist (Julianne Moore) whose creativity consists of covering her naked body in paint, flying through the air in a leather harness, and splatting herself against a giant canvas? Who else but the Coens would think of showing you a camera view from inside the holes of a bowling ball, or an elaborate Busby Berkely-styled musical dream sequence involving a Viking goddess and giant bowling pins? The plot--which finds Lebowski involved in a kidnapping scheme after he's mistaken for a rich guy with the same name--is almost beside the point. What counts here is a steady cascade of hilarious dialogue, great work from Coen regulars John Goodman and Steve Buscemi, and the kind of cinematic ingenuity that puts the Coens in a class all their own. Be sure to watch with snacks in hand, because The Big Lebowski might give you a giddy case of the munchies. --Jeff Shannon

El libro de la selva
Summary: Disney's 1967 animated feature seems even more entertaining now than it did upon first release, with a hall-of-fame vocal performance by Phil Harris as Baloo, the genial bear friend of feral child Mowgli. Based on fiction by Rudyard Kipling, the film goes its own way as Disney animation will, but the strong characters and smart casting (George Sanders as the villainous tiger, Shere Khan) make it one of the studio's stronger feature-length cartoons. Songs include "The Bare Necessities" and "Trust in Me." --Tom Keogh

El mercader de Venecia
Summary: Venecia, siglo XVI. Bassanio pide al mercader Antonio un prstamo de 3000 ducados para poder conquistar a Portia, heredera de

la fortuna de su padre, Belmont. (FILMAFFINITY) Rarely has The Merchant of Venice, one of Shakespeare's most complex plays, looked as ravishingly sumptuous as in this adaptation, directed by Michael Radford (Il Postino). In a decadent version of renaissance Venice, a young nobleman named Bassanio (Joseph Fiennes, Shakespeare in Love) seeks to woo the lovely Portia (Lynn Collins), but lacks the money to travel to her estate. He seeks support from his friend, the merchant Antonio (Jeremy Irons); Antonio's fortune is tied up in sea ventures, so the merchant offers to borrow money from a Jewish moneylender, Shylock (Al Pacino). But Shylock holds a grudge against Antonio, who has routinely treated the Jew with contempt, and demands that if the debt is not repaid in three months, the price will be a pound of Antonio's flesh. The Merchant of Venice is famous as a "problem play"--the gritty matters of moneylending and anti-Semitism sit uncomfortably beside the fairy tale elements of Portia and Bassanio's romance, and some twists of the plot can seem arbitrary or even cruel. The strength of Radford's intelligent and passionate interpretation is that he and the excellent cast invest the play's opposing facets with full emotional weight, thus making every question the play raises acute and inescapable. Irons is particularly compelling; kindness and blind prejudice sit side by side in his breast, rendering the clashes in his character as vivid as those in the play itself. --Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com

El nombre de la rosa
Summary: Siglo XIV. Todo comienza una hermosa maana de finales de noviembre del ao del seor 1327 cuando Fray Guillermo de Baskerville (Sean Connery), un monje franciscano y antiguo inquisidor, y su inseparable discpulo el novicio Adso de Melk (Christian Slater), que es quien relata la historia, acuden a una abada benedictina situada en el norte de la pennsula italiana para intentar esclarecer la muerte del joven miniaturista Adelmo da Otranto. Durante su estancia en la abada van desapareciendo misteriosamente ms monjes, a quienes encuentran muertos al poco tiempo. Lentamente, y gracias a la informacin aportada por algunos monjes, Guillermo va esclareciendo los hechos. El mvil de los crmenes parecen ser unos antiguos tratados sobre la licitud de la risa que se encuentran en la biblioteca del complejo, de la cual se dice que es la mayor del mundo cristiano. Quin es el asesino? Qu hicieron sus vctimas para morir asesinadas? Nadie lo sabe... (FILMAFFINITY) Jean-Jacques Annaud's The Name of the Rose is a flawed attempt to adapt Umberto Eco's highly convoluted medieval bestseller for the screen, necessarily excising much of the esoterica that made the book so compelling. Still, what's left is a riveting whodunit set in a grimly and grimily realistic 14th-century Benedictine monastery populated by a parade of grotesque characters, all of whom spend their time lurking in dark places or scuttling, half-unseen, in the omnipresent gloom. A series of mysterious and gruesome deaths are somehow tied up with the unwelcome attention of the Inquisition, sent to root out suspected heretical behavior among the monastic scribes whose lives are dedicated to transcribing ancient manuscripts for their famous library, access to which is prevented by an ingenious maze-like layout. Enter Sean Connery as investigator-monk William of Baskerville (the Sherlock Holmes connection made explicit in his name) and his naive young assistant Adso (a youthful Christian Slater). The Grand Inquisitor Bernado Gui (F. Murray Abraham) suspects devilry; but William and Adso, using Holmesian forensic techniques, uncover a much more human cause: the secrets of the library are being protected at a terrible cost. A fine international cast and the splendidly evocative location compensate for a screenplay that struggles to present Eco's multifaceted story even partially intact; Annaud's idiosyncratic direction complements the sinister, unsettling aura of the tale ideally. --Mark Walker

El pacto de los lobos


Summary: Gvaudan, en la Francia del siglo XVIII. Una monstruosa criatura devora salvajemente a los habitantes del lugar. Recin llegado de Amrica, Grgoire de Fronsac recibe el encargo del rey Luis XV de identificar y encontrar a la fiera. Sin embargo Grgorie y su

The companion saves the pair and sends them on their way. The hero of the story is a French noble, a scientist, a soldier. We later discover the companion is an American Indian whos now the blood brother of the Frenchman. The village that they are visiting has been besieged by a ferocious beast which preys only on the human population of the village. Throughout the story references are made to wolves, but the French scientist maintains that the beast they search for is not a wolf. The tension is built up with a bizarre cast of characters least of which is the old man and daughter from the beginning of the film. A surreal setting in a superstitious era, complete with accusations of witchcraft, supernatural beings such as werewolves, and the ever ominous presence of the Roman Catholic Church adds to the eerie feeling of the story. Suspicions, accusations and blame are mixed with just enough plot twists to keep the audience thoroughly engrossed and the action scenes are superlative. The ending was not what I expected, nor was it particularly to my liking, but the movie as a wholenot only do I recommend it, Ill watch it again!

El Padrino - Godfather II
Summary: Continuacin de la saga de los Corleone con dos historias paralelas: la eleccin de Michael Corleone como jefe de los negocios familiares, y los orgenes del patriarca, el ya fallecido Don Vito, primero en Sicilia y luego en Estados Unidos donde empez a hacerse un nombre comenzando desde abajo. (FILMAFFINITY) Francis Ford Coppola took some of the deep background from the life of Mafia chief Vito Corleone--the patriarch of Mario Puzo's bestselling novel The Godfather--and built around it a stunning sequel to his Oscar-winning, 1972 hit film. Robert De Niro plays Vito as a young Sicilian immigrant in turn-of-the-century New York City's Little Italy. Coppola weaves in and out of the story of Vito's transformation into a powerful crime figure, contrasting that evolution against efforts by son Michael Corleone to spread the family's business into pre-Castro Cuba. As memorable as the first film is, The Godfather II is an amazingly intricate, symmetrical tragedy that touches upon several chapters of 20th-century history and makes a strong case that our destinies are written long before we're born. This was De Niro's first introduction to a lot of filmgoers, and he makes an enormous impression. But even with him and a number of truly brilliant actors (including maestro Lee Strasberg), this is ultimately Pacino's film and a masterful performance. --Tom Keogh

El Padrino - The Gotfather

Cuando otro capo, Sollozzo, al rechazar el Padrino intervenir en el negocio de estupefacientes, intenta asesinar a ste, empieza una cruenta lucha de violentos episodios entre los distintos grupos. (FILMAFFINITY) Francis Ford Coppola's epic masterpiece features Marlon Brando in his Oscar-winning role as the patriarch of the Corleone family. Director Coppola paints a chilling portrait of the Sicilian clan's rise and near fall from power in America,

masterfully balancing the story between the Corleone's family life and the ugly crime business in which they are engaged. Based on Mario Puxo's best-selling novel and featuring career-making performances by Al Pacino, James Cann and Robert Duvall, this searing and brilliant film garnered ten Academy Award nominations, and won three including Best Picture of 1972.

Whereas Mr. Sskind portrayed this condition in ripe, sarcastic prose, the director Tom Tykwer's method is one of stupefying literalism. Exploiting the lush, lurid tones of Frank Griebe's cinematography, he rubs our noses in Grenouille's world by assaulting our eyes with what he smells. Thus the camera lingers on rotting fish, on animal skins at the tannery where Grenouille serves an early apprenticeship, and then on the lissome ladies who become his victims. But the only smell produced by these long, breathy close-ups is a metaphorical one, a foul, stale odor traceable back to the movie itself.

(FILMAFFINITY) Bernardo Bertolucci s The Last Emperor won nine Academy Awards, unexpectedly sweeping every category in which it was nominated quite a feat for a challenging, multilayered epic directed by an Italian and starring an international cast.

El ultimo gran golpe El ltimo mohicano


Summary: 1757, a orillas del ro Hudson. Hace tres aos que franceses e ingleses luchan en tierras norteamericanas. Mandos britnicos reclutan a gentes del lugar, nativos y granjeros asentados en esas tierras, para formar una milicia capaz de enfrentarse al ejrcito franco-indio

que se acerca por el sur. Hawkeye -Ojo de halcn- (Daniel Day-Lewis) es un blanco adoptado por los indios mohicanos que vive junto a su padre (Russell Means) y su hermano Uncas (Eric Schweig). Tras rescatar de una emboscada de los hurones a Cora Munro (Madeleine Stowe) y a su hermana pequea Alice (Jodhi May), hijas de un oficial britnico, los tres deciden acompaarlas al fuerte ingls William Henry, que est siendo acechado por franceses y hurones. All les obligan a quedarse junto a un grupo de britnicos que acaban de llegar de las colonias... (FILMAFFINITY) Wildly romantic, daringly exciting, Michael Mann's film of James Fenimore Cooper's novel created a new babe magnet out of Daniel Day-Lewis, he of the heaving pecs and flowing mane. As Hawkeye, he plays an American settler raised by the Mohicans who is forced to serve as a guide for British adventurism in upstate New York. But the British have been outflanked by the French (and their Indian allies); then British honor is betrayed when a band of renegades assaults them during their retreat. Mann captures the viciousness of this era's hand-to-hand combat in startling battle scenes. But he also invests the film with heartfelt romance, as the feelings swell between Day-Lewis and Madeleine Stowe. The ending is a stunner, a long, nearly wordless sequence of battle and loss. Strong performances all around, particularly by Russell Means as Chingachgook and Wes Studi as the evil Magua. --Marshall Fine

El ltimo Samurai
Summary: 1870. El capitn Nathan Algren es un hombre a la deriva. Las batallas que libr en otro tiempo parecen ahora lejanas e intiles. Una vez arriesg su vida por el honor y por la patria, pero, en los aos transcurridos desde la Guerra de Secesin estadounidense, el mundo ha cambiado. El pragmatismo ha reemplazado al valor, el inters personal ha ocupado el lugar del sacrificio y el honor no se encuentra en ninguna parte, especialmente en el Oeste, donde su papel en las campaas contra los indios acab en desilusin y tristeza. En algn lugar de las implacables llanuras junto a la ribera del ro Washita, Algren perdi su alma. En un mundo completamente distinto, otro soldado ve como su modo de vida est a punto de desintegrarse. Es Katsumoto, el ltimo lder de un antiguo linaje de guerreros, los venerados samurais, que dedicaron sus vidas a servir al emperador y a su pas. (FILMAFFINITY) The Last Samurai gives epic sweep to an intimate story of cultures at a crossroads as Japan undergoes tumultuous transition to a more Westernised society in 1876-77. In America, tormented Civil War veteran Captain Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise) is coerced by a mercenary officer (Tony Goldwyn) to train the Japanese Emperor's troops in the use of modern weaponry. Opposing this "progress" is a rebellion of samurai warriors, holding fast to their traditions of honour despite strategic disadvantage. As a captive of the samurai leader (Ken Watanabe), Algren learns, appreciates, and adopts the Samurai code, switching sides for a climactic battle that will put everyone's honour to the ultimate test. All of which makes director Edward Zwick's noble epic eminently worthwhile, even if its Hollywood trappings (including an all-tooconventional ending) prevent it from being the masterpiece that Zwick and screenwriter John Logan clearly wanted it to be. Instead, The Last Samurai is an elegant mainstream adventure, impressive in all aspects of its production. It may not engage the emotions as effectively as Logan's script for Gladiator, but like Cruise's character, it finds its own quality of honour. --Jeff Shannon

Good Bye lenin


Summary: Contemporary comedies rarely stretch themselves beyond a bickering romantic couple or a bickering couple and a bucket of bodily fluids, which makes the ambition and intelligence of Good bye, Lenin! not simply entertaining but downright refreshing. The movie starts in East Germany before the fall of communism; our hero, Alex (Daniel Bruhl), describes how his mother (Katrin Sass), a true believer in the communist cause, has a heart attack when she sees him being clubbed by police at a protest. She falls into a coma for eight months-during which the Berlin Wall comes down. When she awakens, her fragile health must avoid any shocks, so Alex creates an illusive reality around his bedridden mother to convince her that communism is still alive. Good bye, Lenin! delicately balances wry satire with its rich investment in the lives of Alex, his mother, and other characters around them. Funny, moving, and highly recommended. --Bret Fetzer

Hermano Oso
Summary: Brother Bear has a dramatic story--after he kills a bear, a young hunter named Kenai (voiced by Joaquin Phoenix, Gladiator) in prehistoric North America is turned into a bear himself and hunted by his own brother--but the animated movie's tone is more earnest and warm than tragic, focusing on the unfolding relationship between Kenai and an orphaned bear cub named Koda (voiced by Jeremy Suarez). However, it's often the comic supporting characters who prove the most popular, and a pair of moose voiced by Rick Moranis and Doug Thomas in their McKenzie brothers/Canadian dude mode (from SCTV and the movie Strange Brew) will win many fans. The songs by Phil Collins are typically negligible, but the hand-drawn animation is lush (occasional flashes of computer-generated animation clash with the movie's overall look). Kids will also enjoy the mammoths; no sabre-toothed tigers, unfortunately. --Bret Fetzer

In the loop
Summary: It s the razor-sharp smash that critics are calling brilliant (San Francisco Chronicle), blisteringly funny (USA Today) and "One of the best films of the year... a little piece of heaven (Chicago Tribune). Peter Capaldi stars as a foul-mouthed British government spokesman who must act quickly when a mid-level minister (Tom Hollander of PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN) tells an interviewer that U.S. war in the Middle East is unforeseeable . But when they are both summoned to Washington D.C., the hapless politico quickly becomes a pawn of bureaucrats, spin doctors and military advisors, including a hardnosed General (James Gandolfini, in a performance Rolling Stone hails as slyly hilarious ). Gina McKee (WONDERLAND), Anna Chlumsky (MY GIRL) and Steve Coogan (TROPIC THUNDER) co-star in this hilarious satire from director/co-writer Armando Iannucci, the award-winning creator of the classic BBC sitcoms I M ALAN PARTRIDGE and THE THICK OF IT.

Indiana Jones y el tiemplo maldito


Summary: 1935. Shanghai. El intrpido arquelo Indiana Jones, tras meterse en jaleos en un local nocturno, consigue escapar, junto a una bella cantante, en compaa de su joven acompaante, un chico oriental con el que siempre est discutiendo. Tras un accidentado vuelo, los tres acaban en la India, donde intentarn ayudar a los habitantes de un pequeo poblado, cuyos nios han sido raptados. (FILMAFFINITY) Filmmaker Steven Spielberg returns as director for this rip-roaring prequel to 1981's smash hit RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK. Here

dashing, whip-wielding archaeologist-adventurer Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) is joined by comely chanteuse Willie (Kate Capshaw) and a 12-year-old sidekick named Short Round (Ke Huy Quan). Together they search for a mystical stone stolen from an Indian community and stumble upon a dangerous Thuggee cult. Exotic locales, wild chases, death-defying cliffhangers, last-minute rescues, screaming damsels, and tribal sacrifices are the order of the day as the threesome attempt to acquire the stolen stone. A few scenes originally planned for RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK showed up in INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM--most notably the mine chase sequence, which was part of the 80 percent of TEMPLE OF DOOM shot on a soundstage. After the film's release, the MPAA's Classification & Ratings Board created a new rating--PG-13. Spielberg cast actress Kate Capshaw, who would later become his real-life wife, for the film.

Indiana Jones y la ultima cruzada


Summary: The third installment in the widely beloved Spielberg/Lucas Indiana Jones saga begins with an introduction to a younger Indy (played by the late River Phoenix), who, through a fast-paced prologue, gives the audience insight into the roots of his taste for adventure, fear of snakes, and dogged determination to take historical artifacts out of the hands of bad guys and into the museums in which they belong. A grown-up Indy (Harrison Ford) reveals himself shortly afterward in a familiar classroom scene, teaching archeology to a disproportionate number of starry-eyed female college students in 1938. Once again, however, Mr. Jones is drawn away from his day job after an art collector (Julian Glover) approaches him with a proposition to find the much sought after Holy Grail. Circumstances reveal that there was another avid archeologist in search of the famed cup Indiana Jones' father, Dr. Henry Jones (Sean Connery) who had recently disappeared during his efforts. The junior and senior members of the Jones family find themselves in a series of tough situations in locales ranging from Venice to the most treacherous spots in the Middle East. Complicating the situation further is the presence of Elsa (Alison Doody), a beautiful and intelligent woman with one fatal flaw: she's an undercover Nazi agent. The search for the grail is a dangerous quest, and its discovery may prove fatal to those who seek it for personal gain. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade earned a then record-breaking $50 million in its first week of release.

Instinti Bsico
Summary: The take-no-prisoners sex thriller from 1992 now stands as a milestone in the career of screenwriter Joe Eszterhas, but in the hands of director Paul Verhoeven Basic Instinct is an undeniably stylish and provocative study of obsession. In the role that made her a star (and showed the audience a little more skin than she intended), Sharon Stone plays the cleverly manipulative novelist Catherine Tramell who snares San Francisco detective Nick Curran (Michael Douglas) with her insatiable sexual appetite during the investigation of her boyfriend's murder. Tramell is the prime suspect, but the plot twists and turns until Curran is trapped in a dangerous cycle of dead ends and unsolved murders, never sure if Tramell is committing the crimes or if it is some other, unknown suspect. With a plot that keeps viewers guessing, Basic Instinct is the work of a director who is clearly in his element. --Jeff Shannon

Invictus
Summary: After South Africa elected Nelson Mandela president, the racially divided country could've easily erupted into civil war. In Clint Eastwood's determinedly populist, yet heartfelt look back at that time, the director examines one of the more ingenious steps Mandela (Morgan Freeman in a performance of sly charm) took to prevent that from happening. Knowing that his country was set to host the Rugby World Cup in 1995, Mandela believed the national team could provide an example of reconciliation in action. Led by Franois Pienaar (an unbelievably buff Matt Damon), the mostly white Springboks inspired devotion among Afrikaners and disgust among native Africans. Instead of changing their name or colors, Mandela encouraged them to win for the sake of their homeland. During the year leading up to the event, the team learns to work together as never before, just as Mandela's newly integrated security detail, a combination of cops and activists, finds a way to bridge their ideological differences. By the time of the big day, the poorly ranked Springboks are well equipped to hold their own against New Zealand's All Blacks (so named for their uniforms, not their racial composition). Drawing from John Carlin's Playing the Enemy, Anthony Peckham's script takes its title, Latin for "unconquerable," from a British poem Mandela held close to his heart during the 27 years he spent in prison. If Damon's accent is more convincing, Freeman serves as the film's heart--and as a timely reminder that reconciliation is never easy, but that it will always trump revenge. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Kennedy in November 1963. That fateful day in Dallas set in motion a sequence of events that would only intensify the mystery behind Kennedy's death, causing New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison (Kevin Costner) to begin an investigation that would gradually become a personal obsession. Bravura filmmaking combined with controversial treatment of historical facts and audacious speculation, this breathtaking revision of history presents a mesmerizing parade of shady figures and conspiracy theories, unfolding like a classic mystery based on history's greatest unsolved crime. A technical triumph boasting Oscar-winning cinematography and editing, Stone's film is guaranteed to grab the viewer's attention with its daring take on the JFK controversy.

KATE Y LEOPOLD King Kong


Summary: Movies don't come any bigger than Peter Jackson's King Kong, a three-hour remake of the 1933 classic that marries breathtaking visual prowess with a surprising emotional depth. Expanding on the original story of the blonde beauty and the beast who falls for her, Jackson creates a movie spectacle that matches his Lord of the Rings films and even at times evokes their fantasy world while celebrating the glory of '30s Hollywood. Naomi Watts stars as Ann Darrow, a vaudeville actress down on her luck in Depression-era New York until manic filmmaker Carl Denham (a game but miscast Jack Black) entices her with a lead role. Dazzled by the genius of screenwriter Jack Driscoll (Adrien Brody), Ann boards the tramp steamer S.S. Venture, which she--and most of the wary crew--believes is headed for Singapore. Denham, however, is in search of the mythic Skull Island, hoping to capture its wonders on film and make a fortune. What he didn't count on were some scary natives who find that the comely Darrow looks like prime sacrifice material for a mysterious giant creature.... There's no point in rehashing the entire plot, as every movie aficionado is more than familiar with the trajectory of King Kong; the challenge facing Jackson, his screenwriters, and the phenomenal visual-effects team was to breathe new life into an old, familiar story. To that degree, they achieve what could be best called a qualified success. Though they've assembled a crackerjack supporting cast, including Thomas Kretschmann as the Venture's hard-bitten captain and young Jamie Bell as a plucky crewman, the first third of the movie is rather labored, with too much minute detail given over to sumptuous re-creations of '30s New York and the unexciting initial leg of the Venture's sea voyage. However, once the film finds its way to Skull Island (which bears more than a passing resemblance to LOTR's Mordor), Kong turns into a dazzling movie triumph, by turns terrifying and awe-inspiring. The choreography and execution of the action set pieces--including one involving Kong and a trio of Tyrannosaurus Rexes, as well as another that could be charitably described as a bug-phobic's nightmare--is nothing short of landmark filmmaking, and a certain Mr. Spielberg should watch his back, as Kong trumps most anything that has come before it. Despite the visual challenges of King Kong, the movie's most difficult hurdle is the budding romance between Ann and her simian soulmate. Happily, this is where Jackson unqualifiedly triumphs, as this unorthodox love story is tenderly and humorously drawn, by turns sympathetic

and wondrous. Watts, whose accessibility balances out her almost otherworldly loveliness, works wonders with mere glances, and Andy Serkis, who digitally embodies Kong here much as he did Gollum in the LOTR films, breathes vibrant life into the giant star of the film without ever overplaying any emotions. The final, tragic act of the film, set mostly atop the Empire State Building, is where Kong earns its place in movie history as a work that celebrates both the technical and emotional heights that film can reach. --Mark Englehart

(FILMAFFINITY) The corsets and high waists of the 19th century meet the lush colors and visual splendor of India in Vanity Fair, a classic novel translated into modern celluloid by Mira Nair (Monsoon Wedding). The very contemporary Reese Witherspoon (Legally Blonde, Election) at first seems to hit the wrong note as Becky Sharp, an orphaned girl who rises to the heights of society using her quick wits and feminine wiles. But as Vanity Fair unfolds, the movie's tone embraces both period decor and modern attitudes, searching for a bridge that will carry us more deeply into a different time. It isn't wholly successful--the movie's end wraps things up awkwardly--but some scenes achieve a surprising and vivid immediacy, in particular one in which Becky's gambler husband (elegant James Purefoy) catalogues his worth for her before going off to the Napoleonic battlefields; love and pragmatism fuse with heartbreaking results. --Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com

La Historia Interminable
Summary: Wolfgang Petersen (In the Line of Fire) made his first English-language film with this 1984 fantasy about a boy (Barret Oliver) visualizing the stories of a book he's reading. The imagined tale involves another boy, a warrior (Noah Hathaway), and his efforts to save the empire of Fantasia from a nemesis called the Nothing. Whether or not the scenario sticks in the memory, what does linger are the unique effects, which are not quite like anything else. Plenty of good fairy-tale characters and memorable scenes, and the film even encourages kids to read. --Tom Keogh

La jungla 4.0
Summary: Synopsis "The best of the best is back and better than ever" (WNYW-TV) in the latest installment of the pulse-pounding, thrill-aminute Die Hard action films.

Now, despite fighting their own personal demons - and each other - they mush join forces to save the world. Sean Connery leads a stellar cast

in this breathtaking, "thrill-a-minute" (Jeffrey Lyons, NBC-TV) extravaganza loaded with "eye-popping effects and amazing action!" (Bill Bregoli, Westwood One)

La loca historia del mundo


Summary: "La loca historia del mundo" es una visin irreverente de la evolucin de la historia, desde la aparicin del primer hombre hasta la Revolucin Francesa. La ltima Cena es captada a travs de los ojos de un atormentado camarero. El Imperio Romano es ms alocadamente corrompido de lo que DeMille jams pudiera soar. Se divulgan los secretos de la Revolucin Francesa. E incluso los ritos tribales del hombre prehistrico aparecen desnudos. (FILMAFFINITY) Mel Brooks's 1981, three-part comedy--set in the Stone Age, the Roman Empire, and the French Revolution--is pure guilty pleasure. Narrated by Orson Welles and featuring a lot of famous faces in guest appearances (beyond the official cast), the film opens well with Sid Caesar playing a caveman, then moves along to the unlikely but somehow hilarious juxtaposition of Caesar's soldiers (the other Caesar, not Sid) with pot humour, and ends on a dumb-funny note in the French bloodbath. This is a take-it-or-leave-it movie, and it works best if you're in a take-it-or-leave-it mood. --Tom Keogh

LA LOCA HISTORIA DEL MUNDO La maldicion del escorpion de Jade


Summary: With The Curse of the Jade Scorpion, Woody Allen pays another visit to his idealized past, and his retro blend of humor and nostalgia will surely satisfy the filmmaker's most loyal fans. Like The Purple Rose of Cairo, Radio Days, and Sweet and Lowdown, The Curse of the Jade Scorpion is physically impeccable: its period-perfect costumes and sets capture 1940 New York with splendid authenticity and are further enhanced by the burnished glow of Zhao Fei's cinematography. And like those earlier films, Jade Scorpion mines comedic gold from its timeframe, molding it into a plot laced with expert zingers that could only spring from a keen awareness of comedic tradition. Add an appealing roster of costars (including Elizabeth Berkley and Charlize Theron) and you've got vintage Woody that perks right along. The movie's also as trivial as it is engaging; hack off 30 minutes and it might have had the delirious precision of early Marx Brothers classics. Instead, Allen's goofy conceit--enemies falling in love by hypnotic suggestion--is stretched to absurdity when efficiency expert Betty Ann "Fitz" Fitzgerald (Helen Hunt) is hypnotically attracted to seasoned insurance investigator C.W. Briggs (Allen), despite their office enmity. Plus, a jewel-heist caper masterminded by the nightclub hypnotist (David Ogden Stiers) casts them both as suspects! Woody harvests a bumper crop of old-fashioned laughs from this predicament, and despite their conspicuous age difference and occasional awkward delivery, Hunt and Allen exchange volleys of dialogue like a seasoned comedy team. Dan Aykroyd is also good in a stodgy supporting role, but Jade Scorpion remains a mixed blessing--a welcomed throwback to comedy's yesteryear, from a master funnyman who's struggling to maintain relevance in the present. --Jeff Shannon

La Momia
Summary: Deep in the Egyptian desert, a handful of people searching for a long-lost treasure have just unearthed a 3,000 year old legacy of terror. Combining the thrills of a rousing adventure with the suspense of the legendary 1932 horror classic, The Mummy is a true nonstop action epic, filled with dazzling visual effects, top-notch talent and superb storytelling.

La Momia 2 - El retorno de la momia


Summary: Proving that bigger is rarely better, The Mummy Returns serves up so much action and so many computer-generated effects that it quickly grows exhausting. In his zeal to establish a lucrative franchise, writer-director Stephen Sommers dispenses with such trivial matters as character development and plot logic, and charges headlong into an almost random buffet of minimum story and maximum mayhem, beginning with a prologue establishing the ominous fate of the Scorpion King (played by World Wrestling Federation star the Rock, in a cameo teaser for his later starring role in--you guessed it--The Scorpion King). Dormant for 5,000 years, under control of the Egyptian god Anubis, the Scorpion King will rise again in 1933, which is where we find The Mummy's returning heroes Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, now married and scouring Egyptian ruins with their 8-year-old son, Alex

La Montaa Mgica LA MUJER DE ROJO La niera mgica y el Big Bang

(FILMAFFINITY)

La novia cadaver
Summary: Who else but Tim Burton could make Corpse Bride, a necrophiliac's delight that's fun for the whole family? Returning to the richly imaginative realm of stop-motion animation (after previous successes with The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach), Burton, with codirector Mike Johnson, invites us to visit the dour, ashen, and drearily Victorian mansions of the living, where young Victor Van Dort (voiced by Johnny Depp) is bequeathed to wed the lovely Victoria (Emily Watson). But the wedding rehearsal goes sour and,

in the kind of Goth-eerie forest that only exists in Burton-land, Victor suddenly finds himself accidentally married to the Corpse Bride (Helena Bonham Carter), a blue-tinted, half-skeletal beauty (how pleasantly full-bosomed she remains!) with a loquacious maggot installed behind one prone-to-popping eyeball. This being a Burton creation, the underworld of the dead is a lively and colorful place indeed, and Danny Elfman's songs and score make it even livelier, presenting Victor with quite a dilemma: Should he return above-ground to Victoria, or remain devoted to his corpse bride? At a brisk 76 minutes, Burton's graveyard whimsy (loosely based on a 19th century Russian folktale) never wears out its welcome, and the voice casting (which includes Tracey Ullman and Albert Finney) is superbly matched the film's gloriously amusing character design, guaranteed to yield a wealth of gruesome toys and action figures for many Halloweens to come. --Jeff Shannon

La pequea Miss Sunshine La Princesa Mononoke


Summary: Claire Danes (THE MOD SQUAD), Minnie Driver (GOOD WILL HUNTING), and Billy Bob Thornton (ARMAGEDDON, SLING BLADE) head a cast of hot Hollywood stars who lend their talents to this exquisitely animated, overwhelmingly acclaimed adventure epic! Inflicted with a deadly curse, a young warrior named Ashitaka (Billy Crudup -- WITHOUT LIMITS) sets out for the forests of the west in search of the cure that will save his life. Once there, he becomes inextricably entangled in a bitter battle that matches Lady Eboshi (Driver) and a proud clan of humans against the forest's animal gods, who are led by the brave Princess Mononoke (Danes), a young woman raised by wolves! Also starring Gillian Anderson (THE X-FILES) and Jada Pinkett Smith (SCREAM 2), this monumental struggle between man and nature will have you transfixed as stunning artistry blends with epic storytelling to create a uniquely entertaining motion picture!

La princesa prometida
Summary: Screenwriter William Goldman's novel The Princess Bride earned its own loyal audience on the strength of its narrative voice and its gently satirical, hyperbolic spin on swashbuckled adventure that seemed almost purely literary. For all its derring-do and vivid over-thetop characters, the book's joy was dictated as much by the deadpan tone of its narrator and a winking acknowledgement of the clichs being sent up. Miraculously, director Rob Reiner and Goldman himself managed to visualize this romantic fable while keeping that external voice largely intact: using a storytelling framework, avuncular Grandpa (Peter Falk) gradually seduces his skeptical grandson (Fred Savage) into the absurd, irresistible melodrama of the title story. And what a story: a lowly stable boy, Westley (Cary Elwes), pledges his love to the beautiful Buttercup (Robin Wright), only to be abducted and reportedly killed by pirates while Buttercup is betrothed to the evil Prince Humperdinck. Even as Buttercup herself is kidnapped by a giant, a scheming criminal mastermind, and a master Spanish swordsman, a mysterious masked pirate (could it be Westley?) follows in pursuit. As they sail toward the Cliffs of Insanity... The wild and woolly arcs of the story, the sudden twists of fate, and, above all, the cartoon-scaled characters all work because of Goldman's

very funny script, Reiner's confident direction, and a terrific cast. Elwes and Wright, both sporting their best English accents, juggle romantic fervor and physical slapstick effortlessly, while supporting roles boast Mandy Patinkin (the swordsman Inigo Montoya), Wallace Shawn (the incredulous schemer Vizzini), and Christopher Guest (evil Count Rugen) with brief but funny cameos from Billy Crystal, Carol Kane, and Peter Cook. --Sam Sutherland

La Reina - The Queen


Summary: Winner of the Academy Award for Best Actress, Dame Helen Mirren gives a spellbinding performance in THE QUEEN, the provocative story behind one of the most public tragedies of our time the sudden death of Princess Diana. In the wake of Diana's death, the very private and tradition-bound Queen Elizabeth II (Mirren) finds herself in conflict with the new Prime Minister, the slickly modern and image-conscious Tony Blair. THE QUEEN, also starring Academy Award Nominee James Cromwell (Best Supporting Actor, BABE, 1995), takes you inside the private chambers of the Royal Family and the British government for a captivating look at a vulnerable human being in her darkest hour, as a nation grieving for its People's Princess waits to see what its leaders will do. Suspenseful, heartfelt and riveting, it's a fascinating story you wont soon forget.

LA TENTACION VIVE ARRIBA LA Terminal The Terminal The Terminal THE TERMINAL
Summary: Basado en hechos reales, Tom Hanks interpreta a Viktor Navorski, un inmigrante de los Balcanes que se ve involuntariamente exilado en un aeropuerto de los Estados Unidos cuando la guerra estalla en su pequeo pas de origen, dejndole con un pasaporte nulo y sin saber dnde ir. Como sus papeles y su pasaporte pasan a no tener validez, Viktor se queda como residente del aeropuerto, hacindose amigo del personal y enamorndose de una azafata -Catherine Zeta-Jones-. (FILMAFFINITY) Like an airport running at peak efficiency, The Terminal glides on the consummate skills of its director and star. Having refined their collaborative chemistry on Saving Private Ryan and Catch Me if You Can, Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks mesh like the precision gears of a Rolex, turning a delicate, not-very-plausible scenario into a lovely modern-age fable (partly based on fact) that's both technically impressive and subtly moving. It's Spielberg in Capra mode, spinning the featherweight tale of Victor Navorski (Hanks, giving a finely tuned performance), an Eastern European who arrives at New York's Kennedy Airport just as his (fictional) homeland has fallen to a coup, forcing him, with no valid citizenship, to take indefinite residence in the airport's expansive International Arrivals Terminal (an astonishing full-scale set that inspires Spielberg's most elegant visual strategies). Spielberg said he made this film in part to alleviate the anguish of wartime America, and his master's touch works wonders on the occasionally mushy material; even Stanley Tucci's officious terminal director and Catherine Zeta-Jones's mixed-up flight attendant come off (respectively) as forgivable and effortlessly charming. With this much talent involved, The Terminal transcends its minor shortcomings to achieve a rare degree of cinematic grace. --Jeff Shannon

Lara Croft - Tomb Raider 2: La cuna de la vida


Summary: Enfrentndose a nuevos y mayores peligros y desafos, Lara Croft muestra sus poderes fsicos en otra trepidante aventura. La intrpida herona viajar a un templo sumergido bajo el agua en busca de la legendaria "Caja de Pandora", pero antes de que llegue, un banda de criminales chinos, liderados por Chen Lo, consigue apoderarse del preciado objeto. Lara tendr que detenerlos antes de que lo usen con fines malficos. (FILMAFFINITY) Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life may be an improvement on its 2001 predecessor, but its appeal is mostly aimed at fans of the video games that inspired both movies. That pretty much leaves you with some fun but familiar action sequences, and the ever-alluring sight of Angelina Jolie (reprising her title role) as she swims, swings, kicks, shoots, flies, jet-skis, motorcycles, and free-falls her way toward saving the world, this time by making sure that a grimacing villain (Ciaran Hinds) doesn't open Pandora's Box (yes, the actual mythological object) and unleash a deadly plague that will "weed out" the global population. Exotic locations add to Jolie's own coolly erotic appeal, but we're left wondering if this franchise has anywhere else to go. --Jeff Shannon

Las Locas aventuras de Robin Hood. Robin Hood: Men in Tights


Summary: Robin de Loxley regresa a Inglaterra despus de varios aos de ausencia y se encuentra un reino sumido en el caos. Ahora debe vivir como un forajido y ser protagonista de numerosas aventuras. (FILMAFFINITY) It's not Blazing Saddles, but there are some chuckles to be found in Mel Brooks's 1993 spoof of the Robin Hood legend. Cary Elwes is Robin (with a lighthearted jab at Kevin Costner's bad English accent in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves), while Richard Lewis plays an angst-ridden King John, and Roger Rees a snotty Sheriff of Nottingham. Comic David Chappelle has some good moments as the only black member of Robins's noble thieves, and Brooks does his own spin on Friar Tuck: Rabbi Tuchman. The song-and-dance sequences featuring a chorus line of the Merry Men ("We're men / men in tights") is vintage Brooks, but otherwise the film can't get any traction. --Tom Keogh

Los caballeros de la mesa cuadrada y sus locos seguidires - Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Summary: Segunda pelcula de los Monty Python, donde abordan la historia del rey Arturo y sus caballeros que van a la bsqueda del santo grial. (FILMAFFINITY) Could this be the funniest movie ever made? By any rational measure of comedy, this medieval romp from the Monty Python troupe certainly belongs on the short list of candidates. According to Leonard Maltin's Movie & Video Guide, it's "recommended for fans only," but we say hogwash to that--you could be a complete newcomer to the Python phenomenon and still find this send-up of the Arthurian legend to be wet-your-pants hilarious. It's basically a series of sketches woven together as King Arthur's quest for the Holy Grail, with Graham Chapman as the King, Terry Gilliam as his simpleton sidekick Patsy, and the rest of the Python gang filling out a variety of outrageous roles. The comedy highlights are too numerous to mention, but once you've seen Arthur's outrageously bloody encounter with the ominous Black Knight (John Cleese), you'll know that nothing's sacred in the Python school of comedy. From holy hand grenades to killer bunnies to the absurdity of the three-headed knights who say "Ni--!," this is the kind of movie that will strike you as fantastically funny or just plain silly, but why stop there? It's all over the map, and the pace lags a bit here and there, but for every throwaway gag the Pythons have invented, there's a bit of subtle business or grand-scale insanity that's utterly inspired. The sum of this madness is a movie that's beloved by anyone with a pulse and an irreverent sense of humor. If this movie doesn't make you laugh, you're almost certainly dead. --Jeff Shannon

Los intocables de Eliont Ness


Summary: Chicago aos 30. Basada en hechos reales, narra la historia del idealista agente de federal Eliot Ness y su implacable persecucin del gngster Al Capone, el famoso mafioso que asesinaba, extorsionaba y comerciaba ilegalmente con alcohol en plena ley seca, siempre a su antojo, sin que nadie encontrara el modo de detenerle. (FILMAFFINITY) As noted critic Pauline Kael wrote, the 1987 box-office hit The Untouchables is "like an attempt to visualize the public's collective dream of Chicago gangsters." In other words, this lavish reworking of the vintage TV series is a rousing potboiler from a bygone era, so beautifully designed and photographed--and so craftily directed by Brian De Palma--that the historical reality of Prohibition-era Chicago could only pale in comparison. From a script by David Mamet, the movie pits four underdog heroes (the maverick lawmen known as the Untouchables) against a singular villain in Al Capone, played by Robert De Niro as a dapper caesar holding court (and a baseball bat) against any and all challengers. Kevin Costner is the naive federal agent Eliot Ness, whose lack of experience is tempered by the streetwise alliance of a seasoned Chicago cop (Sean Connery, in an Oscar-winning performance), a rookie marksman (Andy Garcia), and an accountant (Charles Martin Smith) who holds the key to Capone's potential downfall. The movie approaches greatness on the strength of its set pieces, such as the siege near the Canadian border, the venal ambush at Connery's apartment, and the train-station shootout partially modeled after the "Odessa steps" sequences of the Russian classic Battleship Potemkin. It's thrilling stuff, fueled by Ennio Morricone's dynamic score, but it's also manipulative and obvious. If you're inclined to be critical, the movie gives you reason to complain. If you'd rather sit back and enjoy a first-rate production with an all-star cast, The Untouchables may very well strike you as a classic. --Jeff Shannon

Los lunes al sol


Summary: Una ciudad al norte, costera, que hace ya tiempo dio la espalda al campo y se rode de industrias que la hicieron crecer desproporcionada, a empujones, que la alimentaron de inmigracin y trabajadores y dibujaron para ella un horizonte de chimeneas, de aristas y esperanzas, de futuros desarraigos.

(FILMAFFINITY) Hollywood legends Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis, Ernest Borgnine and Janet Leigh dazzle in this epic chronicle of brutal rivalry and bloodthirsty ambition. Roaring through the 9th century with powerful performances and "brilliant visual drama" (Cue), The Vikings is a riveting "spectacle of have-at-'em action" (Los Angeles Examiner)!

LUCHA DE TITANES Clash of the titans


Summary: Adaptacin libre de la leyenda mitolgica de Perseo, hijo de Zeus, padre de los dioses griegos. Perseo y su madre, Dnae, son

encerrados en un cofre por Acrisio, su abuelo, y arrojados al mar. Arrastrados por la corriente llegan a la isla de Srifos, donde Perseo alcanza la madurez. All tendr conocimiento de la misin de su vida y emprender un viaje alucinante, en el que tendr que ir superando duras pruebas... Remake del clsico de Desmond Davis de 1981. "Release the Kraken!" Ah, it could only be Clash of the Titans, the 2010 remake that retains the instruction to unleash the great beastie from the sea. The 1981 original boasted Ray Harryhausen's legendary stop-motion technique of animating various mythological creatures--it was his final feature project--and given the cornball approach of the movie in general, that was the main draw. The remake supplies new state-of-the-art special effects (released theatrically in 3-D) and a nicely muscular sense of momentum. Sam Worthington (the Avatar guy) plays Perseus, a demigod who doesn't know that Zeus (Liam Neeson) is his father. Perseus is selected to lead an expedition to find and slay the Medusa, lest Zeus's evil brother Hades (Ralph Fiennes, in fine slinking mode) rain down misery upon a seaport--and you just know that means the Kraken is coming. Ye gods, it's a mess, and we haven't even mentioned the witches and the harpies and the giant scorpions. But if we did, it would be clear that Clash of the Titans is a perfectly dandy popcorn epic, unpretentious and punchy. Director Louis Leterrier (Transporter 2) gets a fine rhythm going during Perseus's trek, and you can even forgive the hokey shafts-of-light-through-clouds look of Olympus. Leterrier also had the good sense to import the marvelous Danish star Mads Mikkelsen to provide mentoring duties to Perseus; Gemma Arterton and Alexa Davalos fulfill the eye-candy roles. It's up to individual viewers to choose which they prefer--Harryhausen's magically hand-wrought creations (his Medusa sequence is an absolute killer) or the 21st century's slick computer-generated variations. But nostalgia aside, it would be hard to deny that this is one case where the remake tops the original. --Robert Horton

Luna de Avellaneda

It would seem the only thing to do is to make it a casino, but nothing would negate as much its foundational values and the goals for which it was created in the 40's: a social, sports and cultural club. The founders descendants will debate whether they should save themselves whatever the cost or meet again with those dreams.. . SCREENED/AWARDED AT: Goya Awards, Montreal World Film Festival,

MACGYBER MAD MAX


Summary: En un futuro posnuclear, Max Rockatansky, un polica encargado de la vigilancia de una autopista, tendr que vrselas con unos criminales que actan como vndalos, sembrando el pnico por las carreteras. Cuando, durante una persecucin, Max acaba con Nightrider, el lder del violento grupo, el resto de la banda jura vengar su muerte. (FILMAFFINITY) The Road Warrior is already a classic, sans condescending genre distinctions like "sci-fi" or "action." But the story of Mel Gibson's stately antihero begins in Mad Max, George Miller's low-budget debut in which Max is a "Bronze" (cop) in an unspecified postapocalyptic future with a buddy-partner and family. But unlike most films set in the devastated future, Mad Max is especially notable because it is poised between our industrialized world and total regression to medieval conditions. The scale tips towards disintegration when the Glory Riders burn into town on their bikes like an overamped cadre of Brando's Wild Ones. Representing the active chaos that will eventually overwhelm the dying vestiges of civil society, they take everything dear to Max, who will exact due revenge. His flight into the same wilds that created the villains artfully sets up the morally ambiguous character of the subsequent films. --Alan E. Rapp

El destino quiere que todos se encuentren bajo la marquesina de un cine donde Shosanna espera para vengarse. (FILMAFFINITY) Collector's edition includes bonus disc featuring an interview with Quentin Tarantino! Brad Pitt takes no prisoners in Quentin Tarantino's high-octane WWII revenge fantasy Inglourious Basterds. As war rages in Europe, a Naziscalping squad of American soldiers, known to their enemy as "The Basterds," is on a daring mission to take down the leaders of the Third Reich. Bursting with "action, hair-trigger suspense and a machine-gun spray of killer dialogue" (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone), Inglourious Basterds is "another Tarantino masterpiece" (Jake Hamilton, CBS-TV)!

MALLRATS
Summary: A Brodie y T.S. les acaban de dejar sus respectivas novias. Para evadirse deciden visitar el centro comercial. Una vez all, y con la ayuda de varios amigos, intentarn reconquistarlas y de paso sabotear el concurso que prepara all el padre de una de las chicas. (FILMAFFINITY) Sophomore jinx hit hard in this second film by Kevin Smith, whose debut "Clerks" transcended the limits of its setting and budget to become something memorably funny. (Smith followed "Mallrats" with the wonderful "Chasing Amy", so "Mallrats" definitely had the old curse.) A ramshackle comedy set in a mall, the film follows several story lines involving lovers, enemies, friends, goofballs, and Smith's own "silent" character, who also appeared in "Clerks" and "Chasing Amy". A heavy self-consciousness weighs on everything, as if Smith forgot how to make obscenity funny instead of tedious. Still, it's nice to see some of the director's film family on screen, among them Jason Lee and Joey Lauren Adams. "--Tom Keogh"

Manhattan

(FILMAFFINITY) Nominated for two Academy Awards(r)* in 1979 and considered "one of Allen's most enduring accomplishments" (Boxoffice), Manhattan is a wry, touching and finely rendered portrait of modern relationships against the backdrop of urban alienation. Sumptuously photographed in black and white (Allen's first film in that format) and accompanied by a magnificent Gershwin score, Woody Allen's aesthetic triumph is a "prismatic portrait of a time and a place that may be studied decades hence" (Time). 42-year-old Manhattan native Isaac Davis (Allen) has a job he hates, a seventeen-year-old girlfriend, Tracy (Mariel Hemingway), he doesn't love and a lesbian ex-wife, Jill (Meryl Streep), who's writing a tell-all book about their marriage and whom he'd like to strangle.

When Manolito accidentally climbs into the wrong truck, hilarious chaos results. What started out as a simple trip gets crazier and crazier; with Manolito, you never know what'll happen next!

Ms all de los sueos


Summary: Tras la muerte de sus dos hijos, el doctor Chris Nielson y su esposa Annie intentan con dificultades continuar con sus vidas. Pero Chris tambin muere en un accidente de coche, y cuando llega al cielo conocer a Albert, que le desvela que aquello es ms maravilloso de lo que poda esperar. Sin embargo la soledad sume a Annie en una locura que le alejar todava ms de la vida y de su esposo. (FILMAFFINITY) Robin Williams and Annabella Sciorra star in this visually stunning metaphysical tale of life after death. Neurologist Chris and artist Annie had the perfect life until they lost their children in an auto accident; they're just starting to recover when Chris meets an untimely death himself. He's met by a messenger named Albert (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and taken to his own personal afterlife--a freshly drawn world reminiscent of Annie's own artwork, still dripping and wet with paint. Meanwhile a depressed Annie takes her own life, compelling Chris to traverse heaven and hell to save Annie from an eternity of despair. The multitextured visuals seem to have been created from a lost fairy tale. Heaven recalls the landscape paintings of Thomas Cole and Renaissance architecture complete with floating cherubs, while hell is a massive shipwreck, an upside-down cathedral overgrown with thorns and a sea of groaning faces popping out of the ground (one of those faces is German director Werner Herzog). Williams is the perfect actor to play against the imaginative computer-generated imagery--he himself is a human special effect. But the lack of chemistry between Williams and Sciorra is painfully apparent, and the flashback plot structure flattens the story's impact despite its deeply felt examinations of the heart and the spirit. Still, there's no denying Eugenio Zanetti's triumphant production design and the Oscar-winning special effects, which create a fully formed universe that is at once beautiful, eerie, and a unique example of movie magic. --Shannon Gee

In their quest to save the human race from extinction, they gain greater insight into the construct of The Matrix and Neo's pivotal role in the fate of mankind.

Mejor Imposible
Summary: Melvin Udall, un escritor obsesivo y manitico, es uno de los seres ms desagradables y desagradecidos que uno pueda tener como vecino. Pero, un buen da, tiene que hacerse cargo de un perro al que odia a muerte. La presencia en su vida del animal ablandar su corazn. (FILMAFFINITY) For all of its conventional plotting about an obsessive-compulsive curmudgeon (Jack Nicholson) who improves his personality at the urging of his gay neighbor (Greg Kinnear) and a waitress (Helen Hunt) who inspires his best behavior, this is one of the sharpest Hollywood comedies of the 1990s. Nicholson could play his role in his sleep (the Oscar he won should have gone to Robert Duvall for The Apostle), but his mischievous persona is precisely necessary to give heart to his seemingly heartless character, who is of all things a successful romance novelist. As a single mom with a chronically asthmatic young son, Hunt gives the film its conscience and integrity (along with plenty of wry humor), and she also won an Oscar for her wonderful performance. Greg Kinnear had to settle for an Oscar nomination (while cowriter-director James L. Brooks was inexplicably snubbed by Oscar that year), but his work was also singled out in the film's nearunanimous chorus of critical praise. It's questionable whether a romance between Hunt and the much older Nicholson is entirely believable, but this movie's smart enough--and charmingly funny enough--to make it seem endearingly possible. --Jeff Shannon

Millenium 2: La chica que soaba con una cerilla y un bidn de gasolina


Summary: Lisbeth Salander es la mujer ms buscada del pas. Dos colaboradores de Millennium, a punto de sacar a la luz un escndalo sobre el comercio sexual en Suecia, han sido brutalmente asesinados y las huellas de Lisbeth estn en el arma homicida, lo que aadido a su historial de comportamiento vengativo e impredecible, la convierten oficialmente en un peligro para la sociedad. Sin embargo, nadie puede encontrarla. Mientras, Mikael Blomkvist, editor jefe de Millennium, no cree lo que se dice en las noticias y sabiendo que Salander es feroz cuando se siente amenazada, est desesperado por encontrarla antes de que la acorralen. A medida que encaja las piezas del puzzle, Blomkvist se enfrentar a peligrosos criminales incluyendo al gigante rubio, un temible y enorme matn incapaz de sentir dolor. Blomkvist saca tambin a la luz algunos datos desgarradores sobre el pasado de Salander. Puesta en manos de instituciones psiquitricas desde los 12 aos y declarada legalmente incapacitada a los 18, es una joven deshecha y confundida producto de un sistema injusto y corrupto. Sin embargo, Lisbeth es ms un ngel vengador que una vctima indefensa, y arremete con justa ira sobre los que la han herido.... Segunda parte de su Triloga Millennium, adaptaciones de las exitosas novelas de Stieg Larsson. (FILMAFFINITY) The toughest chick in Sweden returns to action in The Girl Who Played with Fire, the second film adaptation of the late author Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy novels. That would be Lisbeth Salander, once again played with quiet, feral intensity by Noomi Rapace. As Larsson's readers and anyone who saw the first film (The Girl

with the Dragon Tattoo, also released in 2010) knows, Lisbeth is small in stature but big trouble for any man who crosses her--after all, this is the woman who set her father on fire after he abused her mother and later, after being released from a mental institution, took extreme revenge on her legal guardian after he brutally assaulted her (those scenes are briefly revisited for the enlightenment of those who missed the earlier film). Also back is investigative journalist Mikael Blomkvist (Michael Nyqvist), Lisbeth's erstwhile lover and partner in solving the Dragon Tattoo mystery. When two of his young colleagues are killed while at work on a story about sex trafficking, followed shortly by the murder of the aforementioned guardian, Salander is the prime suspect. But Mikael is sure of her innocence; in fact, he's convinced she's the next victim, leading to a tangled tale in which Lisbeth learns more about her family and its very dark secrets than she ever wanted to know. The story is compelling, if a bit slow to take shape, and director Daniel Alfredson, taking over for Niels Arden Oplev, skillfully sustains the mystery and tension (there are also doses of nudity and violence, the latter much more graphic than the former). But Lisbeth isn't on screen nearly as much this time, and her relationship with Blomkvist, so central to Dragon Tattoo, is almost an afterthought. Still, The Girl Who Played with Fire will certainly whet fans' appetites for the next installment, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest; and considering the overall class and quality of these Swedish productions, one shudders to think how they'll turn out in the inevitable American versions, the first of which is due in a couple of years (with Daniel Craig and Carey Mulligan in the lead roles). --Sam Graham

Minority Report
Summary: Thriller de accin que transcurre en Washington DC en el ao 2054, donde la polica utiliza tecnologa psquica para arrestar y enjuiciar a los asesinos antes de que cometan un crimen. El futuro se puede predecir y los culpables son detenidos por la unidad de lite Precrime, antes de que lleven a cabo su delito. Las pruebas se basan en los "precogs", tres seres psquicos cuyas visiones sobre los asesinatos nunca han fallado. (FILMAFFINITY) Set in the chillingly possible future of 2054, Steven Spielberg's Minority Report is arguably the most intelligently provocative sci-fi thriller since Blade Runner. Like Ridley Scott's "future noir" classic, Spielberg's gritty vision was freely adapted from a story by Philip K. Dick, with its central premise of "Precrime" law enforcement, totally reliant on three isolated human "precogs" capable (due to drug-related mutation) of envisioning murders before they're committed. As Precrime's confident captain, Tom Cruise preempts these killings like a true action hero, only to run for his life when he is himself implicated in one of the precogs' visions. Inspired by the brainstorming of expert futurists, Spielberg packs this paranoid chase with potential conspirators (Max Von Sydow, Colin

Farrell), domestic tragedy, and a heartbreaking precog pawn (Samantha Morton), while Cruise's performance gains depth and substance with each passing scene. Making judicious use of astonishing special effects, Minority Report brilliantly extrapolates a future that's utterly convincing, and too close for comfort. --Jeff Shannon

Mission: Impossible 3
Summary: Tras muchas misiones, el agente especial Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) se encuentra ahora retirado del servicio activo, y en su vida personal se ha prometido recientemente con su amada Julia (Michelle Monaghan).

Ahora deber adems enfrentarse al villano Owen Davian (Philip Seymour Hoffman), un traficante de armas y de informacin internacional sin escrpulos.

Abrams ("Lost"," "Alias") brings his unique blend of action and drama to the billion-dollar franchise.

Monstruos SA
Summary: Monsters Inc. es la mayor empresa de miedo del mundo, y James P. Sullivan es uno de sus mejores asustadores. Asustar a los nios no es un trabajo fcil, ya que todos creen que los nios son txicos y no pueden tener contacto con ellos. Pero un da una nia se cuela sin querer en la empresa, provocando el caos. (FILMAFFINITY) The folks at Pixar can do no wrong with Monsters, Inc., the studio's fourth feature film, which stretches the computer animation format in terms of both technical complexity and emotional impact. The giant, bluefurred James P. "Sulley" Sullivan (wonderfully voiced by John Goodman) is a scare-monster extraordinaire in the hidden world of Monstropolis, where the scaring of kids is an imperative in order to keep the entire city running. Beyond the competition to be the best at the business, Sullivan and his assistant, the one-eyed Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal), discover what happens when the real world interacts with theirs in the form of a 2-year-old baby girl dubbed "Boo," who accidentally sneaks into the monster world with Sulley one night. Director Pete Doctor and codirectors David Silverman and Lee Unkrich follow the Pixar (Toy Story) blueprint with an imaginative scenario, fun characters, and ace comic timing. By the last heart-tugging shot, kids may never look at monsters the same, nor artists at what computer animation can do in the hands of magicians. --Doug Thomas

Mystic River New Movie New Movie New York I love you
Summary: Pelcula formada por cortometrajes de reconocidos directores y actores, siguiendo la lnea de "Paris, je t'aime", narrando historias de amor en la ciudad de Nueva York. (FILMAFFINITY) AN ANTHOLOGY FILM JOINING SEVERAL LOVE STORIES SET IN ONE OF THE MOST LOVED CITIES OF THE WORLD, NEW YORK

NIGHT ON EARTH
Summary: Pelcula dividida en historias independientes a travs de las cuales Jim Jarmusch presenta el panorama nocturno de cinco grandes ciudades (Los Angeles, Nueva York, Pars, Roma y Helsinki), con un taxi, y lo que en l ocurre desde el anochecer hasta el amanecer de un mismo da, y obviamente con diferentes personajes, como hilo conductor (FILMAFFINITY) Jim Jarmusch's 1991 ensemble comedy turns a gimmick into a revelation. The story begins in Los Angeles one evening at 7:07 p.m. A talent agent (Gena Rowlands) gets into the back of a taxi driven by a sullen, chain-smoking young woman (Winona Ryder), and over the course of their bumpy conversation, Rowlands's character becomes convinced that the cabby would be perfect for a particular part in a movie. Meanwhile, at that very moment, taxi drivers in New York, Paris, Rome, and Helsinki are all having unique encounters with a variety of fares, breaking through that invisible social barrier between the front and back seats of their cars, often to absurd or touching effect. Among them are cabby Roberto Benigni's ranting confessions to a priest, Armin Mueller-Stahl's relinquishing of the wheel to a stunned Giancarlo Esposito, and Isaach De Bankol's relentless

discussion of sight and sex with an angry, blind woman (Beatrice Dalle). What emerges is a chain of brief intimacies (not always welcomed by the characters), like a number of matches lit simultaneously across the globe, flickering brightly for a few short moments. This popular work by Jarmusch helped confirm his reputation as a fiercely independent filmmaker of rare perception, rigor, and classical sensibility matched with original thinking. --Tom Keogh

No me chilles que no te veo


Summary: Wally es ciego y Dave sordo. El asesinato de un hombre frente a su puesto de prensa les convertir ante la polica en sospechosos. Para probar su inocencia debern colaborar entre ellos convirtindose Wally en los oidos de Dave y ste en los ojos de Wally. (FILMAFFINITY) It was murder! The blind guy couldn't see it. The deaf guy couldn't hear it. But now they're both wanted for it in the dropdead comedy, SEE NO EVIL, HEAR NO EVIL, that reunites the outrageous comedy duo Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder (Silver Streak, Stir Crazy). Meet Wally and Dave. Wally is blind, Dave is deaf. When a man is murdered outside the newsstand where they work, the police collar these two unlikely buddies as their main suspects. A hilarious chase ensues as Wally and Dave hightail it from the New York Police Department to snag the real bad guys the wickedly beautiful Eve (Joan Severance, Black Scorpion) and her cold-blooded cohort, Kirgo (Kevin Spacey, American Beauty). From director Arthur Hiller (Silver Streak) comes this zany comedy caper you won't want to miss.

NOTTING HILL
Summary: William (Hugh Grant), propietario de una tienda de libros en el popular barrio londinense de Notting Hill, conoce a Anna Scott (Julia Roberts), la estrella ms rutilante del firmamento cinematogrfico. Desde el momento en que la actriz entra en su tienda, William empieza a cortejarla. (FILMAFFINITY) They don't really make many romantic comedies like Notting Hill anymore--blissfully romantic, sincerely sweet, and not grounded in any reality whatsoever. Pure fairy tale, and with a huge debt to Roman Holiday, Notting Hill ponders what would happen if a beautiful, world-famous person were to suddenly drop into your life unannounced and promptly fall in love with you. That's the crux of the situation for William Thacker (Hugh Grant), who owns a travel bookshop in London's fashionable Notting Hill district. Hopelessly ordinary (well, as ordinary as you can be when you're Hugh Grant), William is going about his life when renowned movie star Anna Scott (Julia Roberts) walks into his bookstore and into his heart. After another contrived meet-cute involving spilled orange juice, William and Anna share a spontaneous kiss (big suspension of disbelief required here), and soon both are smitten. The question is, of course, can William and Anna reconcile his decidedly commonplace bookseller existence and her lifestyle as a jet-setting, paparazzi-stalked celebrity? (Take a wild guess at the answer.) Smartly scripted by Richard Curtis (Four Weddings and a Funeral) and directed by Roger Michell (Persuasion), Notting Hill is hardly realistic, but as wish fulfillment and a romantic comedy, it's irresistible. True, Roberts doesn't really have to stretch very far to play a big-time actress who makes $15 million per movie, but she's more winning and relaxed than she's been in years, and Grant is sweetly understated as a man blindsided by love. Together, in moments of quiet, they're a charming couple, and you can feel her craving for real love and his awe and amazement at the wonderful person for whom he has fallen. The only blight on the film is its overbearing pop soundtrack, though Elvis Costello's heart-wrenching version of "She" gets poignant exposure. With Rhys Ifans as Grant's scene-stealing, slovenly housemate and Alec Baldwin in a sly, perfectly cast cameo. --Mark Englehart

Nunca me han besado


Summary: Josie Geller trabaja como redactora en un peridico y desea convertirse en una buena periodista. Es una estupenda profesional pero en su vida amorosa ha fracasado lamentndose de que nunca ha sido besada de verdad. Convertida en reportera, su primer trabajo le traslada a un instituto, donde revivir su frustrada adolescencia, pero donde tambin conocer a un profesor que le ayudar a integrarse. (FILMAFFINITY) Let's get this straight: Drew Barrymore started a production company to develop original scripts outside of Hollywood and the first project she chose to produce was this, a romantic comedy written by USC grads Abby Kohn and Mark Silverstein about a nerdy, virginal woman who returns to high school as an undercover reporter, finally gets to be popular, and falls in love. And Barrymore decided, as producer, that the perfect actress to play this virtuous, clean-cut, and downright annoying geek would be... Drew Barrymore? It's hard to believe that after The Wedding Singer Barrymore's not getting enough dopey, formulaic, predictable romantic comedies coming across her desk. The complete inability to buy Barrymore as unattractive, awkward, and unpopular ruins Never Been Kissed from the start, but it's doubtful a better actress could have saved it. The jokes fall flat, the romance between Barrymore and her English teacher (played by Michael Vartan) lacks chemistry, and the portrayals of high school and the newspaper newsroom is clichd and uninspired (big surprise here: the director, Raja Gosnell, previously made Home Alone 3). Gosnell can't even give the gifted character actor, John C. Reilly, anything to do. Only David Arquette, who plays Barrymore's out-of-control brother, brings any energy to the film. --Dave McCoy

Rebelde sin causa

El inspector Ray descubre que los tres mantienen una relacin conflictiva con sus familias. Jim y Judy son recogidos por sus padres, pero Platn, hijo de una pareja divorciada, tiene que conformarse con la visita de la criada negra que vive con l. (FILMAFFINITY) When people think of James Dean, they probably think first of the troubled teen from Rebel Without a Cause: nervous, volatile, soulful, a kid lost in a world that does not understand him. Made between his only other starring roles, in East of Eden and Giant, Rebel sums up the jangly, alienated image of Dean, but also happens to be one of the key films of the 1950s. Director Nicholas Ray takes a strikingly sympathetic look at the teenagers standing outside the white-picket-fence 50s dream of America: juvenile delinquent (that's what they called them then) Jim Stark (Dean), fast-girl Judy (Natalie Wood), lost-boy Plato (Sal Mineo), slick hot-rodder Buzz (Corey Allen). At the time, it was unusual for a movie to endorse the point of view of teenagers, but Ray and screenwriter Stewart Stern captured the youthful angst that was erupting at the same time in rock 'n' roll. Dean is heartbreaking, following the method-acting style of Marlon Brando but staking out a nakedly emotional honesty of his own. Going too fast, in every way, he was killed in a car crash on September 30, 1955, a month before Rebel opened. He was no longer an actor, but an icon, and Rebel is a lasting monument. -Robert Horton, Amazon.com

Regreso al futuro
Summary: Marty McFly es un adolescente amigo de Doc, un cientfico a los que todos menos l toman por chiflado. Cuando Doc crea una mquina para viajar en el tiempo en forma de un automvil deportivo, Marty viaja accidentalmente al ao 1955. All se encontrar con sus padres cuando eran jvenes, pero impide su primer encuentro. A partir de entonces, y con el tiempo en su contra, McFly deber conseguir que se enamoren para que se casen y l no deje de existir. (FILMAFFINITY) Dr. Emmett Brown: Then tell me, "future boy," who is president in the United States in 1985? Marty McFly: Ronald Reagan. Dr. Brown: Ronald Reagan? The actor?! Who's vice president? Jerry Lewis? Filmmaker Robert Zemeckis topped his breakaway hit Romancing the Stone with this joyous comedy with a dazzling hook: what would it be like to meet your parents in their youth? Billed as a special-effects comedy, the imaginative film (the top box-office smash of 1985) has staying power because of the heart behind Zemeckis and Bob Gale's script. High schooler Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox, during the height of his TV success) is catapulted back to the '50s where he sees his parents in their teens, and accidentally changes the history of how Mom and Dad met. Filled with the humorous ideology of the '50s, filtered through the knowledge of the '80s (actor Ronald Reagan is president, ha!), the film comes off as a Twilight Zone episode written by Preston Sturges. Filled with memorable effects and two wonderfully off-key, perfectly cast performances: Christopher Lloyd as the crazy scientist who builds the time machine (a DeLorean luxury car) and Crispin Glover as Marty's geeky dad. Followed by two sequels. --Doug Thomas

Regreso al futuro 2
Summary: Aunque a Marty McFly todava le falta tiempo para asimilar el hecho de estar viviendo dentro de la familia perfecta gracias a su anterior viaje en el tiempo, no le queda ni espacio para respirar cuando su amigo Doc aparece de improviso con la mquina del tiempo (mucho ms modernizada), e insta a que le acompaen l y su novia a viajar al futuro para solucionar un problema con la ley que tendr uno de sus futuros hijos.

Regreso al futuro 3
Summary: Doc tiene el coche-mquina del tiempo averiado, y est prisionero en la poca del salvaje oeste. Por su parte, Marty McFly est en 1955 y acaba de encontrar una carta escrita por Doc en 1885. En ella, Doc le pide que arregle el coche, pero que no vaya a rescatarlo pues se encuentra muy bien en el pasado. Sin embargo el muchacho ir en su bsqueda cuando descubre una vieja tumba en la que lee que su amigo muri en 1885. (FILMAFFINITY) Shot back-to-back with Back to the Future II, this final chapter in the series is less hectic than that film and has the same sweet spirit of the first, albeit in a whole new setting. This time, Michael J. Fox's character ends up in the Old West of 1885, trying to prevent the death of mad scientist Christopher Lloyd at the hands of a gunman. Director Robert Zemeckis successfully blends exciting special effects with the traditions of a Western, and comes up with something original and fun. --Tom Keogh

Revolutionary Road
Summary: En los aos cincuenta, Frank (Leonardo DiCaprio) y April (Kate Winslet) son una joven pareja que vive en los suburbios de Connecticut. Su vida, aparentemente feliz para muchos otros, tras casarse y tener dos hijos, se encuentran ante la disyuntiva de luchar por sus verdaderos deseos o conformarse con su estado actual, una vida donde ambos se sienten mediocres, del montn, precisamente ellos que siempre se vieron a s mismos como especiales, diferentes, preparados para alcanzar los sueos y lograr altos ideales. (FILMAFFINITY) dvd -In Revolutionary Road, Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio reunite for the first time since their careers exploded with Titanic--and it's almost as if they're playing the same characters, only married and faced with the hollowness of a 1950s suburban existence. Frank and April Wheeler (DiCaprio and Winslet) always thought of themselves as special, but they settled in a conventional Connecticut suburb when they had children. Hungry for a less constricted life, April persuades Frank to move to Paris--but slowly their plans unravel and their marriage unravels along with it. While Revolutionary Road may be a bit too glib about suburban emptiness--the lives Frank and April lead don't seem so stifled--the portrait of a mismatched marriage is vivid and devastating. The ways that Frank and April misinterpret each other, and the subtle yet unbearable dissatisfaction they feel, is rendered with remarkable and unsettling acuteness. Winslet and DiCaprio's natural chemistry

tells us what drew these two together, making the way they tear each other apart all the more shocking. The excellent supporting cast includes Kathy Bates (Misery), Dylan Baker (Happiness), and especially Michael Shannon (Bug) as a mentally troubled mathematician who cuts to the quick of the Wheelers' troubles. Mention must be made of the beautiful production design; the costumes and sets are simply gorgeous

Robocop
Summary: En un futuro no muy lejano, Alex J. Murphy, agente de polica de Detroit, es asesinado en acto de servicio. Con el fin de frenar la delincuencia en la ciudad, las autoridades aprueban la creacin de una mquina letal mitad robot, mitad hombre, a la que llaman Robocop. Para su fabricacin, utilizan el cuerpo de Murphy. El experimento parece un xito, pero la memoria del polica no est del todo destruida e inicia una cruel venganza de los tipos que lo asesinaron. (FILMAFFINITY) A sadistic crime wave is sweeping across America. In Old Detroit, the situation is so bad a private corporation has assumed control of the police force. An ambitious young executive and his research team create a law enforcement cyborg from the body of a slain officer. Prepare yourself for non-stop action and adventure in one of the most explosive sci-fi stories you'll ever witness.

Robocop
Summary: En un futuro no muy lejano, Alex J. Murphy, agente de polica de Detroit, es asesinado en acto de servicio. Con el fin de frenar la delincuencia en la ciudad, las autoridades aprueban la creacin de una mquina letal mitad robot, mitad hombre, a la que llaman Robocop. Para su fabricacin, utilizan el cuerpo de Murphy. El experimento parece un xito, pero la memoria del polica no est del todo destruida e inicia una cruel venganza de los tipos que lo asesinaron. When it arrived on the big screen in 1987, Paul Verhoeven's RoboCop was like a high-voltage jolt of electricity, blending satire, thrills, and abundant violence with such energized gusto that audiences couldn't help feeling stunned and amazed. The movie was a huge hit, and has since earned enduring cult status as one of the seminal science fiction films of the

1980s. Followed by two sequels, a TV series, and countless novels and comic books, this original RoboCop is still the best by far, largely due to the audacity and unbridled bloodlust of director Verhoeven. However, the reasons many enjoyed the film are also the reasons some will surely wish to avoid it. Critic Pauline Kael called the movie a dubious example of "gallows pulp," and there's no denying that its view of mankind is bleak, depraved, and graphically violent. In the Detroit of the near future, a policeman (Peter Weller) is brutally gunned down by drug-dealing thugs and left for dead, but he survives (half of him, at least) and is integrated with state-of-the-art technology to become a half-robotic cop of the future, designed to revolutionize law enforcement. As RoboCop holds tight to his last remaining shred of humanity, he relentlessly pursues the criminals who "killed" him. All the while, Verhoeven (from a script by Edward Neumeier and Michael Miner) injects this high-intensity tale with wickedly pointed humour and satire aimed at the men and media who cover a city out of control. --Jeff Shannon, amazon.com

Rocky Balboa (Rocky VI)


Summary: Hace 30 aos Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) era un hombre sin futuro, que trabajaba para un pilluelo de poca monta en el sur de Filadelfia. Cuando un golpe de suerte le brind la oportunidad de enfrentarse en el cuadriltero contra el campen, en ese entonces, Apollo Creed, tuvo la oportunidad de uno en un milln, que se presenta slo una vez en la vida. Su coraje y perseverancia, tanto en la vida como en el cuadriltero, brind esperanza a millones de personas. Ahora, la gloria ya ha llegado y se ha ido, y Rocky se pasa las tardes contando viejas historias a los clientes de su restaurante Adrian's, que lleva el nombre de su ya fallecida esposa, por quien guarda un silencioso luto. Su hijo (Milo Ventimiglia) no desea pasar tiempo con l; se encuentra demasiado ocupado tratando de vivir su propia vida. El tiempo y los golpes han hecho ms humilde a Rocky, le han deformado sus puos, encorvado la espalda y sacado todo lo que tena exceptuando sus viejas historias, pero en su corazn sigue siendo el mismo hombre. En su corazn, l todava es un luchador... (FILMAFFINITY) When he loses a highly publicized virtual boxing match to ex-champ Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone), reigning heavyweight titleholder Mason Dixon (Antonio Tarver) retaliates by challenging the Italian Stallion to a nationally televised, 10-round exhibition bout. To the surprise of his son (Milo Ventimiglia, TV's Heroes) and friends, Rocky agrees to come out of retirement and face an opponent who's faster, stronger and thirty years his junior. With the odds stacked firmly against him, Rocky takes on Dixon in what will become the greatest fight in boxing history, a hard-hitting, action-packed battle of the ages!

Romeo y Julieta de William Shakespeare


Summary: En Verona Beach se suceden los enfrentamientos entre sus dos familias ms poderosas -los Montesco y los Capuleto-, para dominar su influencia. Dentro de un contexto urbano que no descarta la violencia, Fulgencio Capuleto organiza una fiesta a la que asiste gracias a la mediacin de su amigo Mercurio-, Romeo Montesco. En la misma los Capuleto intentan que su joven hija -Julieta- se comprometa con el arrogante Dave Paris -el hijo del gobernador-. Sin embargo, cuando Romeo y Julieta se contemplen de forma casual, surgir desde el primer momento la chispa del amor. Adaptacin moderna del clsico de Shakespeare. (FILMAFFINITY) Baz Luhrmann's dazzling and unconventional adaptation of William Shakespear's classic love story is spellbinding. Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes portray Romeo and Juliet, the youthful star-crossed lovers of the past. But the setting has been moved from it's Elizabethan origins to the futuristic urban backdrop of Verona Beach.

Runaway Bride
Summary: Ike Graham es redactor de un peridico de Nueva York y tiene ms de un problema: una hora para entregar su artculo, su jefa es su ex-mujer, y su agenda echa humo. Cuando decide perderse en su refugio favorito, a la bsqueda de ideas para escribir, Ike tiene noticia del caso de una joven de la zona rural del estado de Maryland, Maggie, a la que le encantan los compromisos matrimoniales, pero le horroriza el matrimonio. Intrigado, Ike escribe una columna sobre el caso de la joven, sin prever el enfado de Maggie y la cadena de enredos que acabar desatando. (FILMAFFINITY) It took nearly a decade to find a mutually agreeable screenplay, but the stars and director of Pretty Woman finally reunited to make Runaway Bride, wisely avoiding any attempt to recapture the 1990 film's elusive magic. The result is a perfectly pleasant romantic comedy that would've fared better critically (despite boffo box office) if it hadn't been overshadowed by its blockbuster predecessor. It's certainly a more credible film than Pretty Woman, trading a far-fetched fairy tale (hooker hooks up with tycoon? bah!) for a more amiably conventional plot about big-city reporter Ike Graham (Richard Gere) who falls for a small-town handywoman Maggie Carpenter (Julia Roberts) with a nasty habit of fleeing from the altar in a recurring state of premarital panic. Both characters are instantly likable, and the smooth dialogue by Josann McGibbon and Sara Parriott only occasionally panders to sitcom cuteness. And despite his routine sacrifice of subtle craft for commercial appeal, director Garry Marshall knows when to trust his stars and material, lending this movie a casual charm (aided by a terrific supporting cast) that never feels forced or artificial. The whole thing's utterly predictable, riding on the suspenseless question of whether Maggie will dump her sports-nut fianc (Christopher Meloni) and tie the knot with Ike. It's a foregone conclusion after the usual games of romantic cat and mouse, but the chemistry between Roberts and Gere is undeniable, and with a decade's worth of additional stardom between them, they shine as brightly as ever. --Jeff Shannon

Salt
Summary: Como agente de la CIA, Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) hizo un juramento de deber y honor a su pas. Su lealtad es puesta a prueba cuando un desertor le acusa de ser una espa rusa.

Los esfuerzos de Salt para demostrar su inocencia slo sirven para levantar an ms las sospechas acerca de sus motivos. Mientras contina la caza para descubrir la verdad que se oculta tras su identidad, una pregunta sigue latente: "Quin es Salt?" (FILMAFFINITY) Angelina Jolie stars in Columbia Pictures' Salt, a contemporary espionage thriller. Before becoming a CIA officer, Evelyn Salt (Jolie) swore an oath to duty, honor, and country. She will prove loyal to these when a defector accuses her of being a Russian sleeper spy. Salt goes on the run, using all her skills and years of experience as a covert operative to elude capture, protect her husband, and stay one step ahead of her colleagues at the CIA.

Salvar al soldado Ryan


Summary: Durante la invasin de Normanda, en plena Segunda Guerra Mundial, a un grupo de soldados americanos les es encomendada una peligrosa misin: salvar a un solo hombre. La patrulla del capitn John Miller debe arriesgar sus vidas para encontrar y devolver a casa al

soldado James Ryan, cuyos tres hermanos han muerto en el conflicto blico. Lo ltimo que se supo del soldado Ryan es que se lanz con su escuadrn de paracaidistas detrs de las lneas enemigas. (FILMAFFINITY) When Steven Spielberg was an adolescent, his first home movie was a backyard war film. When he toured Europe with Duel in his 20s, he saw old men crumble in front of headstones at Omaha Beach. That image became the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan, his film of a mission following the D-day invasion that many have called the most realistic--and maybe the best--war film ever. With 1998 production standards, Spielberg has been able to create a stunning, unparalleled view of war as hell. We are at Omaha Beach as troops are slaughtered by Germans yet overcome the almost insurmountable odds. A stalwart Tom Hanks plays Captain Miller, a soldier's soldier, who takes a small band of troops behind enemy lines to retrieve a private whose three brothers have recently been killed in action. It's a public relations move for the Army, but it has historical precedent dating back to the Civil War. Some critics of the film have labeled the central characters stereotypes. If that is so, this movie gives stereotypes a good name: Tom Sizemore as the deft sergeant, Edward Burns as the hotheaded Private Reiben, Barry Pepper as the religious sniper, Adam Goldberg as the lone Jew, Vin Diesel as the oversize Private Caparzo, Giovanni Ribisi as the soulful medic, and Jeremy Davies, who as a meek corporal gives the film its most memorable performance. The movie is as heavy and realistic as Spielberg's Oscar-winning Schindler's List, but it's more kinetic. Spielberg and his ace technicians (the film won five Oscars: editing (Michael Kahn), cinematography (Janusz Kaminski), sound, sound effects, and directing) deliver battle sequences that wash over the eyes and hit the gut. The violence is extreme but never gratuitous. The final battle, a dizzying display of gusto, empathy, and chaos, leads to a profound repose. Saving Private Ryan touches us deeper than Schindler because it succinctly links the past with how we should feel today. It's the film Spielberg was destined to make. -Doug Thomas

Semos Peligrosos (usase Makinavaja 2)


Summary: Nada ms salir del talego, Maki va a buscar a su amigo Popeye, ahora reciclado en banquero. Juntos rescatan al abuelo de una peligrosa forma de "ruleta rusa" que se juega en el asilo, y deciden tomarse unas vacaciones en la playa.

Habr persecuciones, ciegos de la ONCE convertidos en asesinos, asesores financieros gorrones, y mucho ms. (FILMAFFINITY)

Serendipity
Summary: Jonathan Tragar y Sara Thomas se conocen casualmente una navidad de compras por Nueva York. A pesar de que tienen pareja, ambos mantienen un romntico encuentro. Jonathan desea continuar con la relacin, pero Sara no se atreve. Acuerdan darse los telfonos en un billete -con el que pagan una compra- y un libro -que ella vende en una tienda de segunda mano-, y dejar pasar el tiempo para ver qu sucede. Diez aos despus... (FILMAFFINITY) The irresistible casting of John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale highlights this predictable romantic comedy, which combines the romantic yearning of An Affair to Remember and the New York charm of You've Got Mail. It all begins "a few years ago," when New Yorker Jonathan (Cusack) meets Brit beauty Sara (Beckinsale). They share a few perfect hours together before parting ways, leaving future encounters to her quirky obsession with fate. "A few years later," they're about to marry their respective fiancs (reluctantly, of course), and urgently hoping for destiny to bring them back together. Under the casual direction of Peter Chelsom (barely recovering from Town & Country), this starry-eyed romance offers no surprises, but it has a comforting familiarity, made warmer by the easy chemistry of the leads, with obligatory best-friend support by Molly Shannon and long-time Cusack pal Jeremy Piven. It's hokey, but

die-hard romantics are sure to be forgiving. --Jeff Shannon

Shakespeare in love
Summary: Londres, 1593. El joven William Shakespeare, precoz talento de la escena londinense, necesita urgentemente romper con la mala fortuna por la que est atravesando su carrera de escritor. Por mucho que lo intenta, y a pesar de la presin que recibe de financieros y dueos de salas de teatro, no consigue concentrarse en la escritura de su nueva obra, "Romeo y Ethel, la hija del pirata". Lo que Will necesita es una musa, as que un romance secreto con la bella Lady Viola har que sus palabras salgan de su interior como nunca lo haban hecho antes. Pero hay dos secretos que ste debe descubrir sobre su nuevo amor. (FILMAFFINITY) One of the most endearing and intelligent romantic comedies of the '90s, the Oscar-winning Shakespeare in Love is filled with such good will, sunny romance, snappy one-liners, and devilish cleverness that it's absolutely irresistible. With tongue placed firmly in cheek, at its outset the film tracks young Will Shakespeare's overwrought battle with writer's block and the efforts of theater owner Philip Henslowe (Geoffrey Rush, in rare form) to stage Will's latest

comedy, Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate's Daughter. Jokey comedy, though, soon takes a backseat to ravishing romance when the beautiful Viola De Lesseps (Gwyneth Paltrow) disguises herself as a young man to wangle herself an audition in the all-male cast, and wins both the part of Romeo and, after much misunderstanding, the playwright's heart. Soon enough, Will's pirate comedy becomes the beautiful, tragic Romeo and Juliet, reflecting the agony and ecstasy of Will and Viola's romance--he's married and she's set to marry the slimy Lord Wessex (Colin Firth) in the near future. The way that Oscar-winning screenwriters Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard enfold their story within the parameters of Romeo and Juliet (and even Twelfth Night) is nothing short of brilliant--it would take a Shakespearean scholar to dissect the innumerable parallels, oft-quoted lines, plot developments, and thematic borrowings. And most amazingly, Norman and Stoppard haven't forgotten to entertain their audience in addition to riding a Shakespearean roller coaster, with director John Madden (Mrs. Brown) reigning in his huge ensemble with rollicking energy. Along the way there are small gems to be found, including Judi Dench's eight-minute, Oscar-winning turn as a truly regal Queen Elizabeth, but the key element of Shakespeare in Love's success rests on the milky-white shoulders of its two stars. Fiennes, inexplicably overlooked at Oscar time, is a dashing, heartfelt Will, and as for Best Actress winner Paltrow, well, nothing she'd done before could have prepared viewers for how amazing she is here. Breathtakingly beautiful, fiercely intelligent, strong-willed, and lovestruck--it's a performance worthy of Shakespeare in more ways than one. By the film's end, you'll be thoroughly won over--and brushing up your Shakespeare with newfound ardor. --Mark Englehart

Silverado
Summary: Silverado es una vieja ciudad fronteriza del Oeste. En 1880, cuatro vaqueros cabalgan por el polvoriento camino de la ciudad: los hermanos Emmett, el aventurero Paden y un duro vaquero de raza negra. Al llegar encuentran un ambiente hostil que les obliga a tomar decisiones con las que no todos estn de acuerdo. Su principal enemigo es el comisario, que se dice salvaguarda de la ley, aunque muy a su manera. Para empezar, regenta una cantina. Director Lawrence Kasdan (The Big Chill) clearly set out to make an old-fashioned Western, but he couldn't help bringing a hip, self-conscious attitude to the proceedings. Silverado thus finds its own funky tone--sometimes rousing, sometimes winking. Four cowboys--Kevin Kline (a distinctly modern kind of Western hero), Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, and the rowdy young Kevin Costner--converge on a little Western burg called Silverado. Kasdan peppers the somewhat generic action with smart dialogue and a parade of quirky supporting players, including John Cleese as a sheriff who seems to have stepped straight from a Monty Python sketch into an Old West saloon. Bruce Broughton supplies the music, a real throwback to the glory days of thundering Western themes. One thing's for sure: Silverado's a lot more fun than the later Kasdan-Costner Western, Wyatt Earp. --Robert Horton, Amazon.com

Sin Perdn
Summary: Western crepuscular que relata la historia de William Munny (Clint Eastwood), un pistolero retirado, viudo y padre de familia, que pasa por dificultades. Hace aos que Munny abandon la violencia, pero ahora su nica salida para sacar adelante a su familia es hacer un ltimo trabajo como cazarecompensas, acompaado por un viejo socio (Morgan Freeman) y un joven e inexperto novato (Jaimz Woolvett). Su misin: matar a dos hombres que cortaron la cara a una prostituta. (FILMAFFINITY) Winner of four Academy Awards, including best picture, director, supporting actor and best editing, Clint Eastwood's 1992 masterpiece stands as one of the greatest and most thematically compelling Westerns ever made. "The movie summarised everything I feel about the Western," said Eastwood at the time of the film's release. "The moral is the concern with gunplay." To illustrate that theme, Eastwood stars as a retired, once-ruthless killer-turned-gentle-widower and hog farmer. He accepts one last bounty-hunter mission--to find the men who brutalised a prostitute--to help support his two motherless children. Joined by his former partner (Morgan Freeman) and a cocky greenhorn (Jaimz Woolvett), he takes on a corrupt sheriff (Oscar winner Gene Hackman) in a showdown that makes the viewer feel the full impact of violence and its corruption of the soul. Dedicated to Eastwood's mentors Sergio Leone and Don Siegel and featuring a colourful role for Richard Harris, Unforgiven is arguably Eastwood's crowning directorial achievement. --Jeff Shannon

Pero cuando una expedicin se adentra en la jungla y Tarzn conoce a Jane, descubrir quin es realmente y cul es el mundo al que pertenece... (FILMAFFINITY) After viewing Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Edgar Rice Burroughs wrote to Walt Disney about adapting his novel of an ape-man into a feature animated cartoon. Sixtysome years later, the tale is finally told with brilliant design work that looks unlike any previous animated film. The story is a natural for Disney since the themes of misunderstood central figures have been at the heart of its recent hits. Disney's Tarzan doesn't wander far from the familiar story of a shipwrecked baby who is brought up by apes in Africa. What gives the film its zing is its clever use of music (the songs are sung by Phil Collins himself rather than onscreen characters) and the remarkable animation. Deep Canvas, a 3-D technology, was developed for the film, creating a jungle that comes alive as Tarzan swings through the trees, often looking like a modern skateboarder racing down giant tree limbs. The usual foray of sidekicks, including a rambunctious ape voiced by Rosie O'Donnell, should keep the little ones aptly entertained. The two lead voices, Tony Goldwyn as Tarzan and Minnie Driver as Jane, are inspired choices. Their chemistry helps the story through the weakest points (the last third) and makes Tarzan's initial connection with all things human (including Jane) delicious entertainment. Disney still is not taking risks in its animated films, but as cookie-cutter entertainment, Tarzan makes a pretty good treat. (Ages 5 and up) --Doug Thomas

Tigre y Dragon
Summary: Li Mu Bai es un legendario experto de artes marciales que ha decidido dejar en herencia su espada mgica, la Espada Celestial, a su mejor amigo y lder de Beijing. Li Mu Bai pide a una poderosa guerrera Yu Sha, de la cual est enamorado, que la custodie hasta que la entregue. Pero poco despus, la espada mgica es robada por los enemigos de Li Mu, lo que da lugar a una gran bsqueda de la poderosa espada en la que intervendrn oscuros personajes que intentarn hacerse con el tesoro para aumentar su poder. (FILMAFFINITY) Hong Kong wuxia films, or martial arts fantasies, traditionally squeeze poor acting, slapstick humor, and silly story lines between elaborate fight scenes in which characters can literally fly. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has no shortage of breathtaking battles, but it also has the dramatic soul of a Greek tragedy and the sweep of an epic romance. This is the work of director Ang Lee, who fell in love with movies while watching wuxia films as a youngster and made Crouching Tiger as a tribute to the form. To elevate the genre above its B-movie roots and broaden its appeal, Lee did two important things. First, he assembled an all-star lineup of talent, joining the famous Asian actors Chow Yun-fat and Michelle Yeoh with the striking, charismatic newcomer Zhang Ziyi. Behind the scenes, Lee called upon cinematographer Peter Pau (The Killer, The Bride with White Hair) and legendary fight choreographer Yuen Wo-ping, best known outside Asia for his work on The Matrix. Second, in adapting the story from a Chinese pulp-fiction novel written by Wang Du Lu, Lee focused not on the pursuit of a legendary sword known as "The Green Destiny," but instead on the struggles of his female leads against social obligation. In his hands, the requisite fight scenes become

another means of expressing the individual spirits of his characters and their conflicts with society and each other. The filming required an immense effort from all involved. Chow and Yeoh had to learn to speak Mandarin, which Lee insisted on using instead of Cantonese to achieve a more classic, lyrical feel. The astonishing battles between Jen (Zhang) and Yu Shu Lien (Yeoh) on the rooftops and Jen and Li Mu Bai (Chow) atop the branches of bamboo trees required weeks of excruciating wire and harness work (which in turn required meticulous "digital wire removal"). But the result is a seamless blend of action, romance, and social commentary in a populist film that, like its young star Zhang, soars with balletic grace and dignity. --Eugene Wei

Casper Zafer (La Femme Musketeer) plays the titular soldier, Tirante. Ordered by the Emperor of Byzantium to free Constantinople from the autocratic rule of the Turks, Tirante and his men - who exude the strength and great fighting spirit of the Almogavars - succeed triumphantly - virtually sweeping the Turks aside, and ignoring the fact that the number of warriors in the opposition far exceeds their own count. In the process, Tirante also succeeds in deflowering the illustrious virgin Carmesina, heiress to the empire. The only lingering problem is that Tirante doesn't hail from noble stock.

Titanic
Summary: Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) es un joven artista que gana en una partida de cartas un pasaje a Amrica en el primer viaje del Titanic, el ms grande trasatlntico jams construido.

Jack y Rose se enamoran, pero Cal y la madre de Rose intentarn obstaculizar su relacin. Inesperadamente, un inmenso iceberg pone en peligro la vida de los pasajeros (FILMAFFINITY) When the theatrical release of James Cameron's Titanic was delayed from July to December of 1997, media pundits speculated that Cameron's $200 million disaster epic would cause the director's downfall, signal the end of the blockbuster era, and sink Paramount Studios as quickly as the ill-fated luxury liner had sunk on that fateful night of April 14, 1912. Some studio executives were confident, others horrified, but the clarity of hindsight turned Cameron into an Oscarwinning genius, a shrewd businessman, and one of the most successful directors in the history of motion pictures. Titanic would surpass the $1 billion mark in global box-office receipts (largely due to multiple viewings, the majority by teenage girls), win 11 Academy Awards including best picture and director, produce the best-selling movie soundtrack of all time, and make a global superstar of Leonardo DiCaprio. A bona fide pop-cultural phenomenon, the film has all the ingredients of a blockbuster (romance, passion, luxury, grand scale, a snidely villain, and an epic, life-threatening crisis), but Cameron's alchemy of these ingredients proved more popular than anyone could have predicted. His stroke of genius was to combine absolute authenticity with a pair of fictional lovers whose tragic fate would draw viewers into the heart-wrenching reality of the Titanic disaster. As starving artist Jack Dawson and soon-to-be-married socialite Rose DeWitt Bukater, DiCaprio and Kate Winslet won the hearts of viewers around the world, and their brief but never-forgotten love affair provides the humanity that Cameron needed to turn Titanic into an emotional experience. Present-day framing scenes (featuring Gloria Stuart as the 101-year-old Rose) add additional resonance to the story, and although some viewers proved vehemently immune to Cameron's manipulations, few can deny the production's impressive achievements. Although some of the computer-generated visual effects look artificial, others--such as the sunset silhouette of Titanic during its first evening at sea, or the climactic splitting of the ship's sinking hull--are state-of-the-art marvels. In

terms of sets and costumes alone, the film is never less than astounding. More than anything else, however, the film's overwhelming popularity speaks for itself. Titanic is an event film and a monument to Cameron's risk-taking audacity, blending the tragic irony of the Titanic disaster with just enough narrative invention to give the historical event its fullest and most timeless dramatic impact. Titanic is an epic love story on par with Gone with the Wind, and like that earlier box-office phenomenon, it's a film for the ages. --Jeff Shannon

Truman Capote
Summary: En noviembre de 1959, el escritor Truman Capote lee un artculo en el New York Times que relata el sangriento asesinato de los cuatro miembros de la familia Clutter en su granja de Kansas. Aunque sucesos similares aparecen en los peridicos todos los das, algo llama la atencin de Capote, que quiere utilizar este caso para demostrar una teora: en las manos de un escritor adecuado, la realidad puede resultar tan apasionante como la ficcin. Junto a su amiga Harper Lee, Capote consigue que la revista The New Yorker le enve a Kansas para cubrir la noticia. Su voz aniada, su amaneramiento y su peculiar forma de vestir despiertan en un principio la hostilidad en esa zona del pas, pero Capote se gana pronto la confianza de los lugareos y la del agente encargado de la investigacin, Alvin Dewey. (FILMAFFINITY) In November, 1959, the shocking murder of a smalltown Kansas family captures the imagination of Truman Capote (Philip Seymour Hoffman), famed author of Breakfast at Tiffany's. With his childhood friend Harper Lee (Catherine Keener), writer of the soon-to-be published To Kill a Mockingbird, Capote sets out to investigate, winning over the locals despite his flamboyant appearance and style. When he forms a bond with the killers and their execution date nears, the writing of "In Cold Blood," a book that will change the course of American literature, takes a drastic toll on Capote, changing him in ways he never imagined. Stellar performances from Hoffman and Keener, as well as Academy Award winner Chris Cooper (Adaptation) are why critics are calling Capote a "must-see movie."

T la letra, yo la msica
Summary: Alex Fletcher (Hugh Grant) es un ex cantante de pop de los 80's que se ha reducido a trabajar el ciuruito nostlgico en las ferias de pueblo y en los centros de entretenimiento. Le surge una oportunidad de hacer un "comeback" cuando la diva Cora Corman lo invita a hacer un dueto en su nuevo disco. El problema es que Alex no ha escrito una cancin hace muchos aos, y tiene que crear un hit en cuestin de pocos das. Entra a la historia Sophie Fisher (Drew Barrymore), amiga de Alex, quien lo ayuda a escribir la cancin. Sophie ha salido de una mala relacin amorosa, y no tiene ganas de colaborar con nadie. Pero ambos deben enfrentar sus miedos si quieren encontrar el amor y el xito que tanto merecen... (FILMAFFINITY) Music and Lyrics is frothy and sweet, like the top of a perfect cappuccino shared a deux. Hugh Grant is a self-professed "happy has-been," playing his befuddled, adorable persona more spot-on than he has since Four Weddings and a Funeral. As Alex, former member of an '80s pop band who years later is playing at water parks and high school reunions, he's settled into a life of lesser expectations. Drew Barrymore, quietly radiant, is Sophie, the underachieving girl Friday who arrives to water--make that overwater--Alex's plants--and to explode him out of that comfy rut. If the plot's a bit farfetched, it matters not, since the two lead characters are so likable--and make such beautiful music together. Big bonus: the supportive role of Kristen Johnston as Rhonda, Sophie's older sis (and longtime Alex fan) whose hilarious performance threatens to steal the show whenever she's onscreen. (The owner of a chain of successful weight-loss centers, Rhonda tries to comfort a rattled Sophie: "Want to do some stress eating?") The film also marks the remarkable debut of Haley Bennett, who plays a pop star of Britney/Cristina proportions with deadpan sincerity radiating through her skimpy outfits and megaextensions. As Alex and Sophie work on crafting musical magic, something else is taking hold. It's music to the ears of anyone needing a sweet romantic comedy that hits all the right notes. --A.T. Hurley

Un funeral de muerte
Summary: l entierro de un patriarca conduce a una serie de acontecimientos de familia, revelando secretos oscuros y posiblemente hasta criminales. Todo comienza cuando los miembros de una familia americana se renen para despedir juntos al amado esposo y padre de familia recin fallecido. Todo transcurre en un entretenido da en el que, a medida que los miembros de la familia van llegando a la casa familiar, revelaciones escandalosas, resentimientos purulentos, sucias amenazas, chantajes y un cadver mal encaminado desatarn un caos mortfero y desenfrenado... Remake del film dirigido por Frank Oz en 2007, "Un funeral de muerte". Less than three years after the 2007 Brit-com Death at a Funeral hit cinemas, this remake offered a nearly scene-for-scene variation on the original. Once again a family has gathered for the dignified memorial service for a patriarch: older son (Chris Rock) has prepared a eulogy; younger son (Martin Lawrence) has flown in on his celebrity as a bestselling author; favorite niece (Zoe Saldana) has brought her fianc (James Marsden, flipping out), unaware that he has accidentally ingested a hallucinogen manufactured by her pharmaceutically minded brother (Columbus Short, from Cadillac Records). You know, the usual fare for a funeral. The wild card is a stranger (Peter Dinklage, the only member of the cast to repeat his role from the 2007 film) who has something urgent to impart to the two sons. There's nothing terribly elevated about the slapstick, and one particular scatological sequence tests the boundaries of the bearable (30 Rock's Tracy Morgan, in his usual unbounded form, takes the brunt of this scene). The unexpected director is Neil LaBute, who shows off his sense of comic timing and keeps the whole apparatus moving along briskly. In addition to the relatively subdued lead turns by Rock and Lawrence, the big cast includes Danny Glover, Regina Hall, Luke Wilson, and Loretta Devine. It is almost irrelevant to debate whether this version improves or deflates the original; both hit their marks, deliver the broad yuks, and leave behind a mostly mechanical feel. But the job is accomplished--now rest in peace. --Robert Horton Stills from Death at a Funeral (click for larger image)

Zoolander

Summary: Derek Zoolander (Stiller) ha sido el modelo masculino ms cotizado durante los ltimos 3 aos. La noche de la gala que podra suponer su cuarta corona, el galardn se lo lleva un nuevo modelo llamado Hansel (Wilson). Derek queda en entredicho y como un idiota, y decide retirarse. Sin embargo, un prestigioso diseador le pide que desfile para l. (FILMAFFINITY) Charge your micro-mini cell phones and whip up some orange mocha Frappuccino, 'cuz Zoolander is on the runway, and you're gonna laugh your booty off! Based on a sketch created by writer-director Ben Stiller and cowriter Drake Sather for the 1996 VH1/Vogue Fashion Awards, Zoolander is a delirious send-up of New York's fashion scene as epitomized by male model Derek Zoolander (Stiller), a dimwitted preener who's oblivious to a Manchurian Candidate-like plot to turn him into a brainwashed assassin. Tipped off by a reporter (Christina Taylor), Zoolander teams with rival model Hansel (Owen Wilson) to foil the poodle-haired fashion designer (Will Ferrell) who's behind the nefarious scheme. The goofy plot's only half the fun; with roles for Stiller's parents (Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara), dozens of celebrity cameos, endlessly quotable dialogue, and improvisational energy to spare, Zoolander is very smart about being very stupid, easily matching the Austin Powers franchise for inspired comedic lunacy. --Jeff Shannon
