The Butcher Boy (1997)
Captivating performance by the young lead, Eamonn Owens. The movie itself is perfectly scripted, with a grown-up narrator re-living his childhood memories. The gradual development of the young protagonist from neglected kid to insane killer is brilliantly transformed. The story is dark and gloomy, at the same time with a subtle and surreal comic edge, leaving you uneasy but at the same time strangely affected.
My Movie Rating:
8 / 10 The Butterfly Effect (2004)
All the kids are great here. Logan Lerman manages this demanding character with astounding ease. The story is very sophisticated and requires the viewer to concentrate thoroughly and stay alert. The movie has its flaws, but considering the inspiring story and the actually quite succeeded visual transformation, it is a good one. The acting, as I said, is just great. Jesse James is smart in here too.

My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Canvas (2006)
Well, Swede has said it all.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Casper (1995)
I actually liked Casper. It is nothing sophisticated or durable, but above the average due to its lovely story and the basic idea behind it. You find lots of lousy movies out there that claim to be entertaining, but this one had a simple yet inspiring story. Of course it could have been done better, no doubt. I just thought it was worth seeing.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Charlie St. Cloud (2010)
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Les choristes (2004)
Yeah, a fine movie. The boys are wonderful as they turn into singers. I just thought that there could have been stronger emotional implications, something more pervasive. I like it though.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 The Client (1994)
Yeah, good one. I enjoyed Brad Renfro's performance, he's doing a tremendously fine job in here. The characters are wonderfully cast. The story is thrilling and carried by emotionally exposing sequences that add a sentimental edge to the movie which puts it above the average thriller.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 The Cowboys (1972)
A wonderful western with a simple but strong story. I saw this one a long time ago. I remember the sequence when the boys got drunk around the campfire, when some (was it one or more?) died in a stampede and when The Duke was shot to death. The final scene is very strong, when the boys have the graveyard with the tombstone erected for their chief. Wonderful accomplishment.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 December Boys (2007)
Very decent movie. I liked it a lot. The interaction between the boys was marvellous, I could instantly connect to their genuine performances...
My Movie Rating:
8 / 10 The Deep End of the Ocean (1999)
Very decent movie with good character portrayals.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Desperation (2006)
I give it an 8 because it is an almost perfect adaptation of the novel - probably because Steven King wrote the screenplay himself. Shane does what his part allows him to do - David Carver as the main protagonist would have needed a bit more depth and emotional complexity as a character to live up to my image of the religious and handsome young lad I encountered in the novel.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2010)
Very entertaining movie, and a great Zachary Gordon in the lead.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules (2011)
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Duma (2005)
Excellent movie, great boyactor.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 East Is East (1999)
This movie becomes the better the longer you watch it. It eventually heads towards a very convincing final climax and features an absolutely believable portrayal of socio-cultural frictions within a multicultural family. The actors do a fine job. Watch out for young Sajid.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Edges of the Lord (2001)
The kids in here do a marvellous job. What struck me was that Haley, despite being the leading character, was almost equalled by Liam Hess and Richard Banel and their genuine performances. The underlying themes are very sophisticated. The setting and the historical context add lots of authenticity to the plot and to the individual accomplishments.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Enemy at the Gates (2001)
A very good movie indeed, strengthened by the ruthless depiction of the real historical circumstances as a background. Gabriel actually had a very important part, thus he was able to transmit his talent and his skills in some outstanding sequences. He kind of shone in the midst of utter destruction and the brutalities of war. His performance was straight; he was even able to attach some sort of emotional edge to the story, and his ultimate fate serves as a symbol for the cruelties of warfare.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Entrusted (2003)
Solid movie. Thomas Sangster has much screen time and does a pretty good job.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 Everything That Rises (1998)
Great cast and nicely developed story. Particularly recommended for those like me who like compelling father-son relationships. A classic drama that focuses entirely on one family and the hardships ensuing from an appalling accident. Ryan Merriman does a very convincing job. Watch out for the final rodeo scenes.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10
