Manhunter(1986)dir. Michael MannWilliam Petersen, Brian Cox, Joan AllenSo, can style and substance coexist in a film? Yeah, maybe. Michael Mann's Manhunter, the original Red Dragon, is a ridiculously visual film. Every shot is framed to perfection. Our shepard through the film is Will Graham, a beleaguered former FBI agent pressured into tracking down a killer. William Petersen basically rocked

Revolutionary Road (2008) dir. Sam MendesStarring: Kate Winslet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael Shannon, Kathy BatesThere are some movies that even before they are seen, spark the imagination and hold a place in our head space for a while.

With the onslaught of a new season of 24, I can't help but long for the softer side of Kiefer Sutherland. From roughly 88-92, Kiefer created a string of characters with a decidedly softer edge.

Slumdog Millionaire (2008) dir. Danny Boyle starring: Dev Patel, Irrfan Kahn, Freida PintoBeginning on the polished set of the Indian version of "Who wants to be a Millionaire" Slumdog, quickly subverts your expectations of what a film steeped in flashback could be.
