"Film-Veteran Norman Jewison hat als einer der wenigen Filmemacher verstanden, dass eine überzeugende Film-Biografie oft nur entstehen kann, wenn man sich nicht sklavisch an die Fakten hält, sondern im Sinne der Geschichte Dinge vielleicht vereinfacht oder aus dem Plot verbannt. Wenn die Essenz der Geschichte dabei nicht verloren geht, hat dies nichts mit Verfälschung zu tun. Ein eindrucksvolles Beispiel dafür stellt seine Filmbiografie ..."
"From director Stephen Sommers (producer of The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor) comes an epic filled with intense action, incredible excitement and stunning special effects.

Follow two explorers (Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz) as they search for long-lost treasure in the sun-baked Egyptian desert. The time has c ..."
"Circus is an appropriate title for this busy British three-ring caper film. John Hannah is the amiable ringmaster, a gambling junkie and "the smartest man I know" according to all his acquaintances. Which doesn't quite explain why everyone targets him as a patsy in their elaborate scams and schemes. There are plots aplenty here: frumpy accountant Peter Stormare hires Hannah to murder his wife and then videotapes the deed for collateral ..."

"Unearth non-stop action with The Mummy Collector's Set. Filled with spine-tingling suspense and amazing special effects, this 3-disc collection includes: The Mummy, The Mummy Returns and The Scorpion King. Adventure is reborn!"
"Eines der immer wieder gerne propagierten Kino-Vorurteile lautet: Sequels sind grundsätzlich schlechter als das Original. Eine gewisse Wahrheit liegt natürlich schon in dieser Behauptung -- dafür sind die Produzenten viel zu schnell dabei, wenn es darum geht, einen großen Erfolg so weit wie möglich auszuschlachten --, aber eben nicht die ganze. Star Wars -- Das Imperium schlägt zurück und Indiana Jones und der Tempel des Todes sind nich ..."

"When it was released in 1994 Four Weddings and a Funeral quickly became a huge international success, pulling in the kind of audiences most British films only dream of. It's proof that sometimes the simplest ideas are the best: in terms of plot, the title pretty much says it all. Revolving around, well, four weddings and a funeral (though not in that order), the film follows Hugh Grant's confirmed bachelor Charles as he falls for visiti ..."
""Fuck, fuck, fuck !" : non, ce n'est pas de Niro qui profère ces injures, mais bien le si distingué Hugh Grant, lassé d'être, un samedi sur quatre, de corvée de mariage dans cette réjouissante comédie romantique. Film en 5 actes, Quatre mariages et un enterrement procure autant de joies, de gloussements et de larmes que son titre laisse augurer. Sur un brillant scénario de Richard Curtis, – futur scénariste de Coup de foudre à Notting H ..."
