Freeman, Morgan

• Deep Impact (1998)

  [5/10]

  "In spite of cheap effects and attempts to create emotion, I liked the movie and its attempt to show that you can choose to be a good person even when faced with the knowledge of your almost certain demise."

• March of the Penguins (2005)

  [5/10]

  "I thought the pacing of the film dragged a bit with the Freeman monologue, and I could have used some comic relief through personified voices."

• Wanted (2008)

  [8/10]

  "Over half of the film centers on Wesley training to take his place in the guild of assassins. Wesley doesn't have much fun training, but the film moves the story along with a nice combination of explosions, rapid-fire gunfights, chase scenes, and the discovery of cool and interesting things about the weavers' heritage and skills. You don't get a lot of deep thought out of Wanted, but you do get a fun, adolescent romp filled with plenty of action."

• War of the Worlds (2005)

  [7/10]

  "When a story remains popular for over a hundred years, clearly the elements strike a chord in the human psyche, and who better than Stephen Spielberg to know how to make a movie that resonates that chord in modern audiences."

  Average score: 6.25
