The Fighter (2010)



Based on the story of Micky Ward, a fledgling boxer who tries to escape the shadow of his more famous but troubled older boxing brother and get his own shot at greatness.

Colourful and lively boxing drama is convincing - and entertaining - due to good ensemble performance.

Maltin***: "Flavorful potrait...this film has atmosphere to burn and showy performances - where did they find those women who play Micky's sisters - thought it peters out a bit in the final act."

Into the Blue (2005)



A group of divers find themselves in deep trouble with a drug lord after they come upon the illicit cargo of a sunken airplane.

Shallow thriller with not much more than pretty people in exotic scenery getting into some silly trouble.

Maltin*1/": "Picturesque scenery and plenty of eye-candy don't compensate for a half-baked storyline, routine suspense, and mindless."

Powder Blue (2009)


Four Los Angelenos, a mortician, an ex-con, a suicidal ex-priest, and a stripper, are brought together on Christmas Eve by a mixture of circumstances.

Ambitious, multi-layered drama has atmosphere and is watchable for some good performances, but otherwise unnerves with its pretensions.
