Seen in the right light, 2009 was a great year for movies; too bad you probably didn't see some of the best. It's not your fault; many of the year's most overlooked movies barely made it past the festival circuit and into theaters, and even then, they...

There are a few good reasons to hate on the Satellite Awards. First of all, we really don't need any more end of the year movie and television honors. Second of all, the Satellites seem to be little more than a knock-off of the Golden Globes, which are...

A great movie yes, but hard to watch. Like slowing down to view a horrible car accident to see the carnage but being repulsed after looking. This movie leaves one shocked and very emotional. Great act... ing, choregraphy and music. Just a real downer. Full Review
The Stoning of Suraya M will change you forever. You will feel emotions that you have not experienced before. This movie contains all the factors of Love, family, faith, loyalty, courage, sacrifice, a... nd betrayal. It's a story that unveils an evil truth and makes all of us witness to a crime so evil it will change the way we see the world. You will never forget this movie, and you will be better for it. A Must see for everyone. Full Review
I highly, highly recommend this film. It's powerful, moving and a must-see. It sheds light on an issue on a horrific practice that must be ended.
I just finished the book, keeped me up at night thinking of this woman,will this movie be hitting the Wilkes Barre area in Pa??
The present movie industry owns the rights to all theaters, what can be shown or at ************** so. It is a monopoly by big business. I often wondered why garbage is shown in all theaters yet you ... have to search to find a quality movie. There are many out there; many are foreign made or independently made, but all good. Only a few are shown. Like this one, a movie that needs to be shown to see an other side of an issure, not to blame, but to see the real world. The Stoning is a must see movie. Full Review
