It is hard believe that anyone would want to take the beloved cult television series favorite Aeon Flux and turn it into a movie, but in 2005 MTV Films in association with Paramount Pictures did just that. Charlize Theron plays Aeon Flux in all her science fiction glory; skin tight suits, acrobatics, strange weapons and all. The action sequences are nothing special with typical martial arts

Kelly Reno stars in this adaptation of the Walter Farley novel about a young boy who experiences loss and at the same time gains the greatest friend he will ever have. The story is quite simple, young Alec Ramsey is lost at sea when his passenger ship sinks in the Mediterranean, with his father dead, his

To learn about Alfred Hitchcock's best films you should first know a little about the man himself, and how dedicated he was to his craft. Born on August 13, 1899, Alfred Joseph Hitchcock became a genius director and auteur of suspense and thriller movies; he was both smart and prolific in his work. Hitchcock started in the film industry at the bottom when he found full-time employment in 1920 at

In order to write critically about film you must first have some basic vocabulary, just say that a movie or performance was good or bad is not enough of an analysis.There are three main terms and a bit of information that will help you to look at film as an art form and help you to further look at films in their social context.Frame: The frame refers to what image is contained within the screen,

Writing about film...yep thats for me!It is my passion, writing, and I have to do it everyday, even if no one thinks I am good at it.
