Thanks for the great job you do in posting movie and TV reviews online. I m a college freshman and I recently had a confrontational disagreement with my English professor about an R-rated film. It’s her favorite movie and she wanted to show it in class. I went to your website to research the film s content. Though I hadn’t seen the movie myself, I was able to make an educated argument against it depending on the concerns you outlined. The prof said that she was impressed by my stand and decided to poll the whole class and give us a choice. We overwhelmingly voted to watch a G-rated movie instead! I ve learned that I can trust your site and I’ll be using it lots at some point. (pluggedin.com)

Is a smart love story that debuted in 2009 and takes place in bustling New York City. The movie is about Adam s life as a shy and lonesome man with Asperger’s Syndrome. Actor Hugh Dancy stars as Adam and his keen abilities as a performer shine through as he portrays Adam with real and believable Asperger’s mannerisms. Dancy’s performance draws the viewer in to understand Adam s plight as he meets and develops a friendship with his new neighbor, a pretty kindergarten teacher named Beth played by Rose Byrne. Adam struggles to communicate with Beth and frequently finds it easier to recite interesting facts that he knows about different subjects, as well as his favorite, space exploration.

Looks like an exemplary textbook answer to the question Professor Amy Hungerford asked throughout her American Novel Since 1945 lecture last week: List the variations of the marriage plot we see in modern literature. In the movie, two beautiful strangers are thrown fatefully into each others lives, both have other lovers, problems occur, and still, both fall in love. The end. Oh, and something about salmon fishing in a desert. (Additional info)

And, he’s wanting to use up the vast sums to achieve this dream. But, fisheries expert Dr. Alfred Jones thinks the project is both absurd and impossible, till the chief PR flack, Patricia Maxwell Kristin Scott Thomas, for the British Prime Minister sees the ‘good will’ possible of the project, although, and plans are made to bring ‘Salmon Fishing to the Yemen. ‘.

, depending on the novel of the same name by Paul Torday, has a pretty strange premise for a film that’s so grounded in reality and humanity. Fred Jones Ewan McGregor is a man who finds it hard to connect with other people – he’s Asperger’s syndrome – but has no problem connecting with fish. He’s the British government’s expert in fisheries and is perfectly content in his comfy life. But his existence is shaken up when Harriet Chetwode-Talbot Emily Blunt approaches him on behalf of a wealthy Yemeni sheikh Amr Waked for help with a project to introduce salmon fishing to the arid Yemen.

In spite of being disturbed by the book, I watched the movie, and this cleared up my concerns. As you say, it’s a good story, and it's told better in the movie than the book and it's largely helped by Kristin Scott Thomas, who is smart . But the power of a good story may be used for bad ends. The sheikh, himself a cliche – the charismatic wise man of the East – spouts inane cliches about faith. But in one of the poorest countries in the world, how did he come by his money? This character is constructed so that we love him, and this makes us accessories to injustice. The people of Yemen have been shabbily treated – reduced to a caricature – a lovable billionaire sheikh who follows the impossible dream. (happyantipodean.blogspot.com)

, in choose theaters today, is less focused on the science than the book is. All of the scientific challenges of moving salmon around the globe and to get them to survive in a different environment are talked about, however there is a just bit of hand-waving involved which is most likely for the best, since watching people discuss water oxygenation levels for an hour most likely would not make for as compelling a movie. The film is a pretty more sentimental than the book, and has a more upbeat ending plus the tart political satire of the book is turned into something lots larger and more farcical on screen. (io9.com)
