No sparkle but a lot of stars
For a film that I have heard literally nothing about this little film with a big name is a hidden treasure, based on a true story of gloria graham's later live and her love affair with fellow actor 30 years her junior (peter turner) played by Annette Benning and Jamie Bell ,it's just a nice little film that probably would have worked better as a stage play

This movie definitely cracked me up. There were scenes I literally LOL'd to. I love the cast and characters, and the story line was innovative and new. The only thing that I noticed as a downfall was that it followed most Marvel patterns and had a tendency to drag on with all its corny glory. No spoiler, but the end drags on in attmpts to invoke emotion and only caused annoyance. But all in all, its a good movie.

What a perfect series beginning full of paranormal creatures with the right amount of love, magic and utter devastation! Fast paced and the characters are really enjoyable. The author quickly pulled me in and kept me till the end and I am looking forward to the continuing story.

Unrequited love sucks but can lead to better things. This book does a great job of taking you on the rollercoaster ride that is loving your best friend and watching them live a party life. The main character Gwen, turns this into a successful comic book that seems to touch a wide audience. Her success though keeps her in a rut that she must break out of at the end. This story is something almost anybody to related to on some level.

Great movie
What an great idea and cast. The idea of making movie like a graphic novel brilliant. The characters are done right and introduced perfectly. UMA can kick some major ass and this has one of the BEST openings of a movie I have ever scene. I love it when we have little to go on and you get surprised like that. I don't think there is a part of this movie that I didn't enjoy

It is a shame the world lost such a great story teller as Tom Clancy. I have loved the Jack Ryan series and the latest installment [Command Authority] did not disappoint.
The characters are so good they are like meeting old friends and I love how Jack Jr. has grown into his own. Also the plot of this one with the Russians returning as the antagonists, especially attacking the Ukraine, was timely.
As with all Clancy's books a must read!
