DALLAS (Catholic Media Review) - In The 13th Day, a timely message of Fatima has been retold for a new generation.

UP
Catholic Media Review
6/2/2009, by Christine Schult
WASHINGTON (Catholic Media Review) - The first part of "Up" traces the lives of Carl and Ellie Fredricksen from the time they meet as kids, to when they get married. They go through this quickly, but this was my favorite part, and I really like the way they show them as 'partners' in their ...

Angels and Demons Review - An Unintended Impact
Catholic Online
5/22/2009, by Donald Clark
Los Angeles (Catholic Online) - Catholic Online recently reviewed the new Columbia Pictures/Imagine Entertainment production, Angels and Demons. The movie continues the Dan Brown story line featuring Harvard Professor, Langdon, played by Tom Hanks. Preface Any artistic expression or endeavor in ...

One artistic flaw of the film was casting Tom Hanks, as Professor Landon, the stuffed shirt who lectures Vittoria Veetra relentlessly while peering timidly into moldy tombs and awkwardly chasing gun-toting murderers a la Indiana Jones.  Sorry, but Hanks lacks Harrison Fords’ masculine gusto.  Indy was never more at home than when facing overwhelming odds in a dusty tomb, Langdon just looks and sounds ridiculous.

‘Battle for Terra'
McClatchy Newspapers
4/27/2009, by Roger Moore
The Orlando Sentinel (MCT) - "Battle for Terra" is a 3D oddity that's a war movie grafted onto an anti-war message. Naive but ambitious, it comes across as a "Battlestar Galactica" vetted by pacifists, "Clone Wars" neutered for Saturday morning kids' TV. Earth and its colonies have been destroyed ...
