Mein Freund, der Delfin (2011) Film-Streaming

It isn't cute. It isn't really funny. It just kind of is.. A more than worthy (and weird) holiday diversion for the whole family.. Free Birds is not (sorry) a turkey of a film. But it doesn't really soar terribly high either.. This is not only kid-friendly fare, but a lovely family movie.. It may not be a great movie, but it is an exceptionally touching one.. Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. Like so many modern animated features, Free Birds packs too muc...

Thunderbirds (2004) Beobachten Film

A feeble Spy Kids imitation.. The excellent performances by the cast are also what raise this movie well above your ordinary action movie.. This movie is an epic action movie that I believe in a few years from now shall be more appreciated than it is today !!. . Aside from possibly launching a Ben Kingsley line of cosmetics, Thunderbirds seems destined to leave no lasting mark.. The film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it pretends to do nothing else. It embraces a mystery ...

Der Grinch (2000) Voll Streaming

You can tell the script is short on punch lines by how often it resorts to poop and fart jokes, the last refuge of the desperate gag writer.. If you have little moviegoers around for the holidays, you should still make the trip to Whovillie.. Not the most gripping narrative, but the frenetic pace and nonstop gags will please young fans.. At its center, it has Carrey, whose nasty, catty Grinch is a hoot and a half.. Business as usual for the irrepressibly cheerful, pineapple-dwelling sea-creature...

Die Eiskönigin - Völlig unverfroren (2013) Film-Streaming

Absolutely one of the greatest, most cringe-worthy movies I've ever seen.. Make way for a new kind of fairy tale. These Frozen princesses are the kind we can definitely warm to.. Unlike in many animated movies, the borrowings aren't so much in-jokey as structural. Homages, of a sort, and fun to spot.. This is the single best movie I have ever seen.Thanks for your movie info.. A movie can have a superb story, amazing cinematography, and mesmerizing writing as well as directing, but without the ta...

Spirit - Der Wilde Mustang (2002) Beobachten Film

Adams' hoarse anthems become a betrayal of this horse opera's true potential; fortunately, there is enough fine achievement here to make the film worth seeing.. A cartoon that's truly cinematic in scope, and a story that's compelling and heartfelt -- even if the heart belongs to a big, four-legged herbivore.. Rather exciting, rendered in a bright sunset palette and a mixture of expressive, boldly drawn traditional animation and fluid computer-generated imagery.. An exciting and exquisitely rende...

Die Piraten - Ein Haufen merkwürdiger Typen (2012) Online-Streaming-

That the film happens to be in 3-D, with digitized settings and backgrounds, doesn't detract from the timeworn charm of watching blob-like characters lurch erratically through harebrained comic pratfalls.. The action is beautifully staged, delightful, and exciting.. The movie looks meticulously crafted, of course, and is consistently, drily amusing.. A curiosity cabinet of visual pleasures but so breezy and lightly funny that you may not realize at first how good it is. (You're too busy grinning...

The Lego Movie (2014) Film-Streaming

Ben Stiller and crew go for the easy laughs, spackling the cracks in their armor with a cavalcade of marquee-name cameos and one dizzying action scene after another.. I stopped laughing because after 20 minutes, I'd had enough. The conceit gets stale fast.. The best part is what the movie has to say about conformity -- following the instructions on the box -- versus creativity, i.e. life as a jumble, an inspired improvisation, a joyous hodgepodge.. Ben Stiller, Steve Coogan, Owen Wilson, Ricky G...
