Very entertaining and heartfelt Superman film - great acting by Diane Lane and Kevin Costner (should have had more scenes).

I really enjoyed 'MAN OF STEEL' much more than I thought I would. The action was cool, the effects epic and most importantly you cared for the characters. The best scenes involved Ma and Pa Kent played with heartfelt gravitas by DIANE LANE (Best Actress Oscar nominee for Unfaithful, Perfect Storm) and KEVIN COSTNER (Oscar winner for Dances With Wolves). All the actors are good but those two shone for me and should have had more scenes. In fact it was the supporting actors who are the more well known stars... COSTNER, DIANE LANE, RUSSELL CROWE, LAURENCE FISHBURNE... yet it is HENRY CAVILL (who I am not familiar with) who holds the film together with a superb portrayal of Superman / Clark Kent. A good movie with good characters and it is very entertaining.

SECRETARIAT is not just a great great sports movie it is just a great movie full-stop. EVery about this film is spot on. The story is wonderfully crafted and well told. The photography is beautiful and classy. The acting is phenomenal. DIANE LANE is in Oscar form as Penny Chenery the owner of Secretariat. She owns the film and gives a very powerful and realistic portrayal. JOHN MALKOVICH is also superb in support. The racing scenes are simply stunning. You are there in the race. It is very well done (and doesn't resort to cheap "shaky-cam" stuff. A very moving and enjoyable movie. It's one of the best sports related movies EVER and comes very highly recommended!

Diane Lane (Oscar nominee for "Unfaithful" and "The Perfect Storm") gives a radiant performance as Adrienne Willis, the female lead in "NIGHTS IN RODANTHE". She is unhappily married and separated from her cheating husband. She is trying to men her shattered life by retreating to a lovely guest house on the beach of Rodanthe. There she meets Dr Flanner (played with sophisticated charm and warmth by a top of his game Richard Gere). The two are uncomfortable at first but a bond soon happens between them and they slowly begin to fall in love. But heartache and tragedy are still to come and it is how these characters overcome these that makes this such a satisfying and wonderful film. Gere is very very good and he and Diane Lane strike up a great chemistry (as they did in the hit movie "Unfaithful"), but the acting honours go to Diane Lane who is simply superb in the lead role. Another Oscar worthy performance by this great actress. Very worthwhile movie!

"UNTRACEABLE" starring Diane Lane --- really good, very much like "SE7EN" - Definitely worth seeing!

I saw it tonight. Thought it was REALLY intense and suspenseful with some really cool set-pieces. Diane Lane is excellent and it has lots of "SE7EN"-esque moments (including LOTS of rain and a grimy look). There is a very palpable sense of foreboding and dread that I haven't really witnessed since Fincher's classic and maybe "Silence of the Lambs".

Anyway, it won't win any Oscars but it is well worth a look IMHO. Very creepy and dark, but entertaining and thought provoking. Diane is excellent in it!

Recommended. Go see it! 9/10

I wasn't sure what to expect going into this film. I had seen the great trailer several times and thankfully the film more than lives up to the quality of the trailers. The film is an exploration of fame and what that might cost. It is also the story of three people... Louis Simo (Adrien Brody), Toni Mannix (Diane Lane), and George Reeves (Ben Affleck). When Reeves body is found, Simo looks into the apparent suicide and starts to uncover very disturbing things including the torrid affair Reeves was having with Toni Mannix (Diane Lane).

The film is superbly acted. Everyone here is at the top of their game. Affleck and Brody have never been better, and Bob Hoskins is very intimidating as Ed Mannix (Diane Lane's husband). But it is Diane Lane who gives the standout performance here as a woman who starts off as a confident seducer and ends as a volatile and distraught shell. It is an amazing performance that is both sexy and heart-wrenching. Affleck is also touching and sympathetic as Reeves.

The cinematography is amazing and the story is intelligently written and told. It manages to be both fascinating, interesting and entertaining. The films 126 minutes fly by and the film is very engrossing. Top that with some great performances including an Oscar worthy turn by Diane Lane, and you have one of the best films of 2006 so far. 10/10.

A likable, fresh, funny and feelgood movie with Diane Lane on fire! I have suffered through many rom-coms in the past and liked very few. But... but "MUST LOVE DOGS" is one of the few that is actually a really good movie that everyone can enjoy. DIANE LANE is terrific in the film as Sarah, a woman recovering from a divorce and nervous about getting back in the dating game. JOHN CUSACK really shines as one of her suitors and the support cast is wonderful. I really enjoyed the film from start to finish. It is a breezy, light, fresh and above all else entertaining and funny movie. The comic timing of all the actors especially DIANE LANE is formidable. Great movie. 10 stars!

I was lucky enough to see this at this years Tribeca film festival. I was stunned by how well made and how entertaining this wonderful little film was. Director Griffin Dunne has done a great job assembling this film that has several characters and several story lines that blend so smoothly and seamlessly. The main story involves the family and it is very thought-provoking and entertaining story that involved the viewer in every scene. The film as a whole has credibility and integrity, yet still has that commercial edge - an "indie" movie for the masses if you like. The performances by the cast are all excellent but it is Diane Lane who shines the brightest. Diane Lane is simply sensational in this wonderful film and should be Oscar nominated. Early days I know, but Lane acts her socks off here.

Diane Lane is amazing in this lovely, joyful romp through the glorious Tuscany region of Italy. This is a heartfelt and deeply affecting film that will live on long after the final credits have rolled. This film will make you go home and pack your bags for the beautiful scenery on view. The acting is top-notch with Diane Lane giving yet another Oscar calibre performance (remember last years' "Unfaithful"?!) and she carries the film really well. Everyone else I saw this film with absolutely loved it and I'm sure it will be a big hit if given the chance. It deserves to be as it is a really enjoyable and lovely romp through Tuscany and all it's charms. Highly recommended indeed.

This movie sounded to me like a "Fatal Attraction 2" but with the roles reversed. How wrong could I be! This was a cracking thriller that had many new and exciting elements that helped make it a very "different" and refreshing thriller. DIANE LANE (The Perfect Storm, Streets Of Fire) is sensational as the films main character and she relishes every minute of her great performance with a star-making charisma and power that already has many critics talking Oscars. LANE simply becomes Connie and it is a mark of her talent that she is so memorable yet subtle in her portrayal. Unfaithful is a refreshing and rock-solid thriller that has deserved it's boxoffice success. 10/10

This was a wonderful and poignant portrait of DIANE LANE (Unfaithful, The Perfect Storm, A Walk On The Moon, Streets Of Fire, A Little Romance). Lane is one of the most respected, talented and beautiful actresses to ever grace our screens and this was a wonderful tribute with many contributions from Lane's co-stars, directors and friends.

I was so looking forward to this, BUT "Intolerable Cruelty" is a complete mess. The Coen brothers have lost the plot with this piece of awful cinema. The plot is hopeless and the film is pathetic and not funny. Considering the immense talent involved this is one major disappointment!

DIANE LANE (Unfaithful, The Perfect Storm) proves that she is one of Hollywoods most talented and beautiful actresses in this beautifully made poignant film. DIANE LANE plays Pearl a woman who has missed out on her young adulthood. She is somewhat neglected by her good-natured but somewhat boring husband. She has a chance at some excitement when she meets a handsome travelling blouse salesman (played by Lord of the Rings star VIGGO MORTENSEN). But what is the cost to her and her family...

A well made, lovingly crafted and sexy film with great period details and exceptional performances, especially DIANE LANE who was to tread similar ground in the sexy infidelity thriller Unfaithful.

DIANE LANE, and actress I've long admired, shines as Ellen Aim in Walter Hill's cult-classic rock'n'roll fable. The story is straightforward and easy to follow but it's the immense style and class with which this films tells its story that makes it such a 1980's favourite. Many early appearances by now famous actors include, the above mentioned DIANE LANE (Unfaithful, The Perfect Storm), Willem Dafoe (SpiderMan, Platoon), Bill Paxton (True Lies, Titanic) and Rick Moranis (Hone I Shrunk The Kids, Parenthood). Great fun to be had with this great flick. Amazing soundtrack as well. 10 out of 10!
