Sicko trailer

Among the more than two hours of new special features to be included on Braveheart are: James Bond Blu-ray Collection Three-Pack, Vol. 3 Kevin Costner stars in and directs this triumphant masterpiece written by Michael Blake, based on his novel. On Blu-ray for the very first time, this breathtaking 20th Anniversary Edition includes an extended cut of the film and all-new exclusive extras. Winner of seven Academy Awards, including Best Directing and Best Picture, this modern classic tells the story of Lt. Dunbar Costner, a Civil War hero who befriends a tribe of Sioux Indians while stationed at a More James Bond Blu-ray Collection Three-Pack, Vol. 1 When I heard about the overwhelming critical rejection of Passion Play after it premiered at the 2010 Toronto Film Festival, my morbid curiosity kicked in. Consequently, I wasted an hour and a half of my life watching one of the lousiest movies ever made. Mickey Rourke and Megan Fox star in this ridiculous pile of dross, a dismal fantasy drama which came out on Blu-Ray last month. When Passion Play screened at TIFF, movie critics were practically fleeing the theater en mass. Now I understand why. That Rourke would be a part of this film is a mystery, but then again, he has a habit of making random career decisions. The bigger mystery is that comedic genius Bill Murray would take on a co-starring role and actually deliver his cringe-worthy lines with a straight face. Megan Fox rounds out a small cast, and her lousy acting is hardly noticeable given the general crapitude of the film. Mitch Glazer is responsible for this cinematic disaster. Better known as the scribe behind some solid movie hits like 1988s Scrooged which starred Murray, The Recruit and modernized classic Great Expectations, Passion Play was Glazers directorial debut. He also wrote the script, and no doubt his intimacy with the project led to some short-sightedness. At least, thats the kindest version of events I can guess at. The truth is that the script is terrible, the story ridiculous, the dialogue stagnant, and the long interludes of slow jazz both tedious and dated. Hamburger-faced Rourke plays Nate, a down-on-his-luck jazz trumpet player who works in a seedy club owned by a sinister gangster named Happy Murray. Nates life is in forfeit after he sleeps with the boss wife, and hes taken into the desert to be killed execution style. Strangely, a gang of white-robed Indians run in and shoot Nates executioner, then promptly run away without any explanation. Nate wanders through the desert looking for a payphone and comes across a carnival complete with a freak show and a charismatic carny named Sam Rhys Ifans. Drawn to the sideshow, Nate wanders through its many oddities until he comes to a sight that holds him mesmerized. An angel stands behind the glass, a beautiful woman with real angel wings named Lily Fox; a sad captive who is used to being put on display. Nate follows Lily to her trailer, and against all odds the sexy freak with wings lets him in. Not only that, she ends up running away with him.
