All of us at FilmNet had the same dream over the past 5 months: to build a home for filmmakers and movie buffs, musicians and their fans, and all the lovers of quality video content. It has been an amazing journey, and we are now very excited about opening the site to the public and continuing this journey together with you.
There are many video sharing and social networking sites. So why did we decide to build a new one? What’s different about FilmNet?
We have designed FilmNet as an open soci…

First of all I'd like to thank Wesley Dugle, who's been kind enough to post his reviews to Critical-Film.com, two reviews so far, Terminator Salvation, and X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It's great for me because it gives me a little more time to rework the site from head to toe (a pretty big project, that's probably going to take me a few more weeks to finish). It's necessary though, the site, when all is said and done, should be more visitor friendly, search engine friendly, and allow for more easi…

Hello,
My name is Doris Anne Beaulieu. I have a website-Life’s Ultimate Test dot com-on which you can learn more about my mission to change the face of home schooling.
I attended a parochial school as a child in the 1950's. In this Catholic school I was sheltered from the realities of the world around me-from swearing, from public displays of affection, from slang. These are often some of the same things that modern home schooling parents aim to protect their children from. A superior court judg…

Splash Area May 24th 2009
Pre-production began very swiftly this week on Yellow Fever Productions second feature film, Splash Area...
With a mission to complete the shoot in just 19 days, everyone is busy preparing the props, costumes and set-designs from morning till night - and I have to say, its looking pretty damn sweet!
Based on Halloween night, Splash Area is a return to the 80's slasher flicks, with the plot centering around a gang of clowns who have escaped the local asylum…

Before I get to the review, I'd first like to apologize to anyone who received a wall post from Elnora Guy (or something similar to that), this person signed up to the site and posted on everyone's wall linking to an adult webcam site, so as a result I banned them from the network, and all their posts were deleted. So, that's why you all received post notifications and there was nothing there. Sorry about that. Anyway, on to the review.

First of all I'd like to congratulate Wyatt Weed and Pirate Pictures on their theatrical release of "Shadowland". It's a limited release, but a release nonetheless. I'm sure it will lead to more. I'd also like to thank Wyatt for emailing me a pic of the "Shadowland" page taken from the theater schedule at which "Shadowland is playing. It's significant to me because, well a quote from my review is at the bottom left of the page. Check it out below...

First of all I'd like to extend a few thanks to some friends of Critical-Film.com.
First, George Clarke (director of "Battle of the Bone"), who we met at last year's Freakshow Film Festival. George has been busy as hell working on a number of projects, and promoting the first annual Yellow Fever International Film Festival in Northern Ireland this August. George recently did an
article for Culture Northern Ireland and…

I took a few minutes and updated the graphics on the site, as you can see, a new header image, as well as new images for users with no pictures... little stuff like that.
You Likey?

I’m staring at this word processor screen feeling completely blank.
It’s not as though I believe that I have nothing to say. I’ve been in a fair amount of emotional flux of late; there are things happening in life. But I don’t know how to express any of it.
I think maybe I’ve become to accustomed to writing out my cynicisms, fears, and personal triumphs into the words and situations of characters in my creative writing. It’s where a lot of me is going right now (one of the afore mentioned “thi…

Does anyone here remember when this guy used to be a marketing tool all by himself for fans of the indie scene? I seem to recall the poster of a film called “The Last Life in the Universe” (from Thailand?) touting Doyle as the cinematographer… Like
he was the star of the movie somehow.
But that was at the turn of the century and since then, the world hasn’t heard too much of Doyle. Still, his resume is an impressive selection of independent snobbery. Of course working with Wong Kar-Wai i…

Since I haven't been working, my sleep schedule has gone to shit.
It's 2:28 AM right now, and I've probably got at least a movie in me, and possibly time to write a review afterward. The sad thing is, tomorrow I'll be exhausted by 8:00PM, probably be asleep by 9:00, awake again around midnight, and once again be up until 5ish... I haven't had a solid nights sleep in at least a week. It's been rough, and everything has been suffering.
Anyway... not much of a post. Just wanted to let everyone kn…

Is this an appropriate forum to discuss such things? I care not.
I decided a while back that I was going to use this blog as a tool to do what I’ve never been
able/given the opportunity to do, and that is to reveal myself bare (no pictures of my nudity, of course; those are merely available on a “by request” basis). The purpose, aside from being able to express things that I normally never get a chance to, is actually practical. The better you know who I am, the more accurately you can j…

First, "Slumdog Millionaire"...
I don't feel there's any reason to write a full review of "Slumdog Millionaire", as everyone knows it's good. It won Best Picture and Director at this years Oscars, as well as a number of technical awards. I will say that, after seeing the film twice now, it is deserving of every single Oscar it was awarded. The film is perfect, and it has crept it's way into my personal favorite five films. Not only that, but I will also say that I feel it is the best film of th…

I’ll do my best to describe it. It’s not very long.
I’m sitting on a couch watching television and in between programs (I know nothing of either one); there is an animated Canadian short. For those of you unfamiliar with what this entails, I offer the following:

In my review of Mark Colegrove’s “Pleasures of the Damned”, I warned potential viewers that many would not share my particular sense of humour, and as such I can’t recommend the film to all audiences. Well, the same goes for its pseudo-sequel “Isle of the Damned”, a film that exceeds its predecessor in terms of sheer quality and effectiveness, yet also displays a lot of the same detrimental characteristics that hindered the overall quality of “Pleasures…”
That being said, I did three things bef…

Van Damme’s films have always catered to a certain mentality of film-goer. His films have never carried much of a plot, focusing solely on the action, be it through martial arts (“Bloodsport”; “Kickboxer”) or a mix of traditional action, focusing as much on gunplay as physical action (“Hard Target”). Action movies aren’t made this way anymore… They try to incorporate more of a plot than the films are worth, and as a result the level of action suffers, as does the film overall.
As Hollywood has…
