The summer of 2015 is brimming with big stars who want to be your superhero, teaming for epic adventures, side-splitting comedies, and sweeping romances that will.

The Audient: Cat's Away: Because also new releases. This is the fourth night in Cat's Away, a cheekily named series of nightly viewings I'm doing while my wife is in America. Now, on to the one trait this is shared by almost all films in almost all film festivals: actually being new. Or, comparatively new, anyway. I'm not flipping over my viewing calendar to focus on 2.

Top-Grossing Movies of 2016. Note: This chart ranks movies by the amount they earned during 2016. The Kidnapping Of Michel Houellebecq (2015) Movie Full Hd. It includes movies released in previous years that earned money. Close Encounters of the Third Kind. A life-changing movie experience. Terminator 2: Judgment Day 3D. Terminator 2 is that rare genre classic that is every bit as good.

I divide my viewing year into new releases (August to January) and older releases (February to July), with plenty of overlap from the other in each. But I couldn't let the Friday night of my festival pass without a good 2. I just didn't know how good.

Yes, I loved Kong: Skull Island. After hearing good things about it, I was cautiously optimistic, which is why I downloaded a rental from i. Tunes last week and programmed it in this time slot. But emphasis on the word . I didn't know if I had any reason to trust the good word of mouth on Kong more than any of these other movies. But this movie had me from its opening seconds, its audacious style immediately grabbing me. It starts with a crackerjack prologue in which an American pilot crash lands in spectacularly absurdist fashion, his plane nose- diving into the desert sand as his parachute follows suit moments later, landing closer in the same frame.

Jordan Vogt- Roberts - - remember this name, people - - immediately announces himself as a visual stylist with a whipsmart wit, and everything else just continues in the same vein. This film is replete with unconventional camera setups in small moments, finding that perfect balance between calling attention to themselves and blending seamlessly into the narrative. I think I might get breathless, or my fingers might get tired, if I tried to tell you everything I liked in this movie, but let's just touch on a number of them here. Tread carefully, as there may be some spoilers. The Vietnam War era setting really worked for me. It's become an increasingly common strategy to set big budget brand movies in other historical eras - - Wonder Woman, the recent X- Men movies - - but I don't think I had yet seen one that was so influenced by the familiar beats of a Vietnam War movie.

In fact, this felt kind of like a mashup of a Vietnam War movie and a summer blockbuster, and I'm always a fan of a good mashup if done right. What a wise decision to make this movie rated R. Not only did it allow some truly unbridled carnage - - I'm thinking of a couple people being torn limb from limb, and a soldier getting lanced by a spider leg down his throat - - but it also allowed John C. Reilly to say a thing like . It was stronger for leaving some things up to our imagination. But when it did offer us a big set piece, it didn't scrimp on it.

Instead, that scene where the soldiers have to take down the 6. They had to work really damn hard to level the thing, not to mention to avoid getting stepped on by it - - which, it should be said, may not have been a thing the spider was even trying to do. I get the sense it was just strolling along and happened to squash some soldiers, just as we might unknowingly crush a bug.

I loved moments like when the spider's stomach is perforated and it unleashes a torrent of guts on the soldier below, which reminded me of my beloved Starship Troopers. And speaking of throwaway set pieces, what about when Kong fights the octopus and then eats it, its appendages still writhing as he shoves them down this throat? I messaged my friend at that time: . I'd heard there were just entirely too many characters, and sure, not all of them got a proper character arc.

Un libro (del latín liber, libri) es una obra impresa, manuscrita o pintada en una serie de hojas de papel, pergamino, vitela u otro material, unidas por un lado (es.

But there was enough development dolled out to each that I was grateful for the large size of the cast, rather than resentful of it. In fact, the large size of the cast reminded me of a type of entertainment that was common to the era in which this film is set: the all- star cast disaster movie.

With the number of famous faces here being whittled down by attrition, the movie put me in mind of movies like The Towering Inferno and The Poseidon Adventure. Which is most assuredly a good thing. If I weren't covering this movie as a Cat's Away post, I might have devoted a solo post to the topic of Brie Larson's recent trend of appearing as either the only or one of the only women in a movie filled with men with guns. I would have called that post . Interestingly, both films are also set in the 1.

It always impresses me when films walk the line between comedic and tragic, and this one does it terrifically. Some of this movie is insanely funny, though you also really feel the moments of loss. Anything John C. Reilly says is a riot, but Shea Whigham is actually quite funny as well, among others. In fact, Whigham may embody this delicate tonal balance more than anyone else, because SPOILER ALERT AGAIN his death is actually one of those solemn moments. It's also a moment that undercuts our expectations.

He's ready to sacrifice himself by by letting a giant creepy crawlie eat him and then pulling the pins on a couple grenade to blow the thing up. But in another one of those moments like the spider randomly squashing the soldiers below, the creepy crawlie does not choose to eat him, but rather flicks him into the side of a distant rock face with his tail, where the grenades detonate harmlessly. The moment struck me as a comment on the senselessness of loss in war, as even when this guy is trying to be a hero he is robbed of that chance by random occurrence. The visuals look great in this film, no better example than in Kong himself.

I remember being impressed with the way Kong looked in Peter Jackson's film, and I'm sure he still does look good. But 1. 2 years later, this Kong looks magnificent. More than anything I was impressed with how he seems to occupy clear three dimensional space and carries with him a specific weight and tangibility. That's been a big problem with digital creations in general, but it is no problem here.

How is it possible that this director only made one other film that has gotten any attention, and it's the 2. The Kings of Summer, which I have not even seen? This is like Colin Trevorrow going from Safety Not Guaranteed to Jurassic World, but even more so, as this film is far more visually assured than Jurassic World, and I'm a Jurassic World fan. In fact, this film operates like a Jurassic Park movie in a number of senses - - the encounter with the giant water buffalo is like the first discovery of the brontosauruses - - only it does it in a way that does not overtly reference dinosaurs. Unlike, unfortunately, Jackson's King Kong, which has that very problematic middle section. They are making more of these movies, which excites me.

Please please please let Vogt- Roberts direct. If this were a weeknight I might be done. But it being a Friday night, I watched a second movie, which was this. Oof, I bet you didn't expect this to be intruding on your Kong: Skull Island post! Sorry, what a punch in the nuts. Spoilers to follow. If you don't know Irreversible, it's the movie that contains a ten- minute scene of Monica Bellucci being brutally raped, and a guy getting his head bashed in with a fire extinguisher, the result of about ten separate bludgeons.

For many, it is a consummate one- timer. But this was my second time seeing it. Gaspar Noe's films have a way of burrowing into your brain, and Irreversible joins Enter the Void as films of his I've seen twice and cannot shake. Third, fourth and fifth viewings may eventually be forthcoming for both. As I have already written a lot today I am not going to give a full . However, I will tell you that it's so much more than a movie reverse- engineered around a ten- minute rape scene, and I'll also say that having watched it twice now does not make me a bad person.

You know how they say that many supposedly anti- war films end up glamorizing war?
