:00:32. > :00:37.Welcome to the Film Review on BBC News. What have we got here? As you
:00:37. > :00:43.must know, we have Star Trek Into Darkness which is the second we
:00:43. > :00:51.bridge. The franchise was a reinvented. We have Deadfall which
:00:51. > :00:59.is a thriller. And we have Mud, which Matthew McConaughey did much
:00:59. > :01:06.shows he's so much more than just a pretty face. The eastern Czech
:01:06. > :01:11.movie interest me. -- Star Trek movie. When the director came to
:01:11. > :01:15.this franchise, he said he did not like it when he was a kid. One of
:01:15. > :01:20.the things they wanted to do was to keep the fans onboard but also to
:01:20. > :01:24.bring in a whole new generation of France. They invented is
:01:24. > :01:31.interesting back story. The halt star Czech history exists but this
:01:31. > :01:41.is another history. This film, you must turn seen some of the old Star
:01:41. > :01:41.
:01:41. > :01:48.Trek episodes... I have. They were as little Torquay to me.
:01:48. > :01:53.director is about to make the new Star Wars movies. In the case of
:01:53. > :01:57.the new movie, do his talking, there is discussion of the prime
:01:57. > :02:04.directive, imperialism. In the new movie, all of the conversations I
:02:04. > :02:14.had in the middle of Masters expert -- massive explosions. The movie
:02:14. > :02:20.
:02:20. > :02:26.begins with spot in the middle of a Captain on the bridge! Day he is
:02:26. > :02:36.fine his communication. Bristol have contact. I have activated the
:02:36. > :02:36.
:02:36. > :02:41.device, captain. Do we have use of the transporters? I need to be in
:02:41. > :02:48.him back on the ship. Maybe if we did at -- had a direct line of
:02:48. > :02:55.sight at... If it erupts, I cannot guarantee we can withstand the heat.
:02:55. > :03:01.The enterprise is too large. Nobody knows the rules better than you.
:03:01. > :03:06.There has to be an exception. action abide - month violates of
:03:06. > :03:16.the plan to do it. The out -- the needs of the many outweigh the
:03:16. > :03:17.
:03:17. > :03:24.needs of the few. Try to get him back online. Who would have
:03:24. > :03:31.thought... It is pretty good.Bad is the tone of the movie. The
:03:31. > :03:35.original series was constantly about current affairs. This has a
:03:35. > :03:41.back story which is essentially about terrorism. All those debates
:03:41. > :03:51.are held in in middle of action scenes. It was interesting. You're
:03:51. > :03:53.
:03:53. > :03:58.laughing when you're watching that clip. You were enjoying it. Also,
:03:58. > :04:02.the one thing the director really knows how to do is to give the
:04:02. > :04:06.spectacle. The think this movie does not have which the original
:04:06. > :04:11.had is this has less character interplay and the narrative was
:04:11. > :04:18.less satisfying. But for the most way, Benedict Cumberbatch is
:04:18. > :04:22.fantastic. He holds the camera brilliantly. He has a great deal of
:04:22. > :04:31.speaking as about him. You can imagine this would be perfect for
:04:31. > :04:39.him. He also has to play with your sympathies. It is a question about
:04:39. > :04:43.imperialism, colonialism, proper schism. While that is going on,
:04:43. > :04:47.planners have been blown up. You can't manage it thinking, it is
:04:47. > :04:52.largely surface but what surface? The director knows and make
:04:52. > :04:56.something look good. He has an infatuation with lens flare. There
:04:56. > :05:02.is not a single shot in the film that is not drenched with lens
:05:02. > :05:06.flare. It has been retrofit did into today. You think he does on
:05:06. > :05:11.your glasses. You have to try a pretty hard not to enjoy yourself.
:05:11. > :05:18.I think it will work for you. It is a good action maybe bad does not
:05:18. > :05:24.assume you know all of the back story. That sounds good to me.
:05:24. > :05:30.Deadfall is a strange concoction. It is a Gothic, a? Thriller. It
:05:30. > :05:35.starts us with a brother, Eric Bana, and a sister. They have come out of
:05:35. > :05:40.a drug which has just gone wrong. They are heading towards the
:05:40. > :05:44.Canadian border. Their headings was a cabinet. They're going towards
:05:44. > :05:51.great acting. On the course of their escape, all of these weird
:05:51. > :05:56.plot threads into vine. There is violence, a comedy, shock, and
:05:56. > :06:06.family. Any movie that features a snare, features a dead bodies and a
:06:06. > :06:11.
:06:11. > :06:16.female policewoman and think Fargo. There is a poppy, nawab, edge to it.
:06:16. > :06:25.Eric Bana was very good. It is trashy but he knows why it is
:06:25. > :06:29.trashy. It is enjoying itself. This is super ripe. I enjoyed it a lot
:06:29. > :06:34.more than I thought it would. It will not stay around for a long
:06:34. > :06:41.time but that did was good fun. have converted be to Star Trek, a
:06:41. > :06:45.kind of. Matthew McConaughey, I thought he was an idiot. Then I saw
:06:45. > :06:53.on the beach he was amazing in. Everyone thought the same thing
:06:53. > :07:00.about him. He did romantic comedies. Now he plays somebody on the run.
:07:00. > :07:05.Two boys find a deserted island where a boat is on the tree. They
:07:05. > :07:15.want to use it as a tree house but it is already inhabited by Matthew
:07:15. > :07:29.
:07:29. > :07:39.You boys, see what that got me. It tastes so good. Why do you have
:07:39. > :07:48.
:07:48. > :07:56.that pistol? Protection. You do not need to be afraid of me. I have two
:07:56. > :08:04.ways of to protect myself. These shirts and his pistol. There are
:08:04. > :08:11.some powers working in this world, boys. Good, evil. You have to take
:08:11. > :08:20.advantage way you can. Are you coming? It is an interesting clip.
:08:20. > :08:28.It says that the themes of the film. It is a bad boys becoming men. A
:08:29. > :08:33.bit of Huckleberry friend? Absolutely. This director is great
:08:33. > :08:38.and location. You can feel the swarmed, you can feel the heat. I
:08:38. > :08:45.love that about his work. The kids are absolutely brilliant. Some
:08:45. > :08:52.comparisons are made to stand by me. The interesting thing about the
:08:52. > :08:57.film is that his performance the lead. Matthew McConaughey has found
:08:57. > :09:01.his second act. It is a film about atmosphere, relationships. It is
:09:01. > :09:06.not perfect but it is a very interesting boys two men film with
:09:06. > :09:10.a strong sense of setting. And more proved that Matthew McConaughey has
:09:10. > :09:20.a great future ahead of him. Just when you're after everyone said he
:09:20. > :09:21.
:09:21. > :09:27.was done. He is the prisoner for occasion of evil in that other from.
:09:27. > :09:30.Is there a scene in which she takes up his shirt? But it is not a
:09:31. > :09:36.Matthew McConaughey takes he showed off kind of film. Thank goodness
:09:36. > :09:43.for that. His next film is your movie of the week. It is an
:09:43. > :09:48.extraordinary war movie. It has echoes of... It is about loyalty
:09:48. > :09:53.and betrayal. And what it means to collaborate. In the way that all
:09:53. > :09:58.war movies... Is about ideas, concrete, human suffering. It is
:09:58. > :10:04.not an action movie. It is tough to watch. But it is fully rewarding.
:10:04. > :10:08.It has a haunting atmosphere. It has a strong sense of place. You
:10:08. > :10:17.feel like it is dealing with a really weighty issues. Although it
:10:17. > :10:25.is a very personal drama. It is also the moral fog. The moral fog,
:10:25. > :10:31.the literal fog. You can interpret the title in many ways. The DVD is
:10:31. > :10:36.the tsunami movie. It is inspired with a true story. I thought it was
:10:36. > :10:44.a very powerful drama. You can consider how easy it would be to do
:10:44. > :10:49.the story and make it exploitative. It is traumatic. If parents want to
:10:49. > :10:53.watch it with their children, bear in mind it maybe more traumatising
:10:53. > :11:03.for the keys. Technically, it is really well done. Most of my
:11:03. > :11:10.friends who have seen it said they loved it. The film takes more
:11:10. > :11:18.accounts to the death of other people which people give it credit
:11:18. > :11:21.for. The film and gestures towards the wider tragedy. It just happens
:11:21. > :11:27.that there is a politically -- particularly extraordinary real-
