Legend movie review: badfellas
Tom Hardy is fab, but this is GoodFellas-lite, depicting violent sociopaths as glamorous, even amusing, and lacking all understanding of what made them tick.

Real-life historical drama about a woman artist ignores her work and focuses instead on a tediously tragic romantic triangle.
Instantly forgettable but more than passable as a diversion; solid B-movie cheese that’s like Titanic-lite meets Gladiator-lite.
Too white, too thin, too interchangeable: the traditional cover featuring young talent on the rise always comes under massive scrutiny, and the ritual is now in full swing…
Yesterday’s QOTD was about a feminist net positive: the most kickass female action character of 2011. Today, we go the other way…
I despair at the feature debut of screenwriter and director Julia Leigh: she celebrates a notion that any woman filmmaker should be kicking in the nuts…
Emily Browning got to play a prostitute in Sucker Punch, and now here she is again in Sleeping Beauty playing a completely different kind of prostitute.
This SUCKER PUNCH from my man Zack Snyder is just like so totally fukkin awesome I dont even know where to start. Who the fuk wants to watch fukkin hobbits gettin all weepy and shit get to the part where we get to see orcs vomittin black blood when there heads get loped off and shit. And its all in the fukkin slomo shit where you can like really savor that shit and make it last. Thats what SUCKER PUNCH is just one long aaaaahhhh of awesomeness.
Oh, for some kick-ass movie ghosts. I’m talking kick-ass on a Dickensian level.
