France

  • Flyboys directed by Tony Bill (2006)

    score: 6 of 10 [6/10]

    "Essentially, you should see Flyboys for the excellent dogfights. You need the basic story line so you will care enough about the pilots when they die, but otherwise the plot doesn't do much to enlighten the audience about Americans serving in the French military as some of the first wartime aviators."

  • Henry V directed by Kenneth Branagh (1989)

    score: 8 of 10 [8/10]

    "Branagh plays Henry V with and easy elegance, and he delivers the king's motivational speeches with marvelous interpretation and dynamics."

  • Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice (1976)

    score: 6 of 10 [6/10]

    "While Interview with the Vampire has expertly crafted depictions of scene and emotion, this volume doesn't have some of the polish and flare you find in some of the later volumes in the series."

  • Jetée, La directed by Chris Marker (1967)

    score: 6 of 10 [6/10]

    "La Jetée shows the power of the briefest of memories to instill a life with hope. Marker's presentation as a series of stills emphasizes the periodic and fleeting nature of memory."

  • Marie Antoinette directed by Sofia Coppola (2006)

    score: 5 of 10 [5/10]

    "I find Marie Antoinette an interesting mood piece that doesn't tax the actors involved, except maybe with their period wardrobe. The soundtrack distracts from the tone of the film, and I got bored at many places, probably due to so much attention to detail in the costumes and sets at the expense of true biographical information."

  • Quicksilver (2003)

    score: 6 of 10 [6/10]

    "I think much of the story line gets bogged down with the interesting things Stephenson found in his research. These elements might have a bearing in the second or third volumes, but distracted from the immediate enjoyment of the novel."

  • Three Musketeers, The by Alexandre Dumas (1844)

    score: 7 of 10 [7/10]

    "Dumas weaves action and intrigue (and almost no character development) into a classic story that still fascinates."

  • Time Bandits directed by Terry Gilliam (1981)

    score: 7 of 10 [7/10]

    "A blow-by-blow description of Time Bandits doesn't do it justice. Director Gilliam has infused every scene with subtle humor, blatant slapstick, and cosmic justice."

    Average score: 6.38
