	At-A-Glance Film Reviews: Dangerous Beauty (1998)
		The film is presumptuous enough to simplify the Inquisition's violent reformation into a fl and white moral issue.
		The film would have done better to tell the story of human characters doing their best to survive in turbulent times rather than to take a falsely glorified moral stance and defend the function of prostitutes in society.
		There's a lot of potential in a film about a society in which prostituting oneself is the only way to preserve one's human rights.

	Classic Film Guide
		In film 2, the police are also at the dock, which shortens things a bit, and it’s the femme fatale escapes.
		However, in all three films, it’s Spade, though he’s initially tempted by her charms to do otherwise, who hands the femme fatale over to the police as the responsible party for his partner’s murder.
		Huston’s film is 20 minutes, or more, longer than the previous adaptations, and it differs from the first two in that doesn’t portray the detective agency as one without viable clients (nor does Hammett’s novel) at its beginning.

	indieWIRE: Most Dangerous Film Fest Brings Culture to Sin City
		A dizzying, disturbing portrait of addiction, madness and the ties that bind, the film is a mostly documentary, partly staged portrait of Maringouin's father Johnny Roe and Roe's long-time lover Virgie Marie.
		With deft editing and strategically deployed color effects, the film takes on the feel of a hallucination and an exorcism, as Roe's rambling, non-stop patter and vicious arguments with the no less troubled Virgie seem to endlessly loop back to the same topics, mirroring their cycle of addiction.
		While the film blatantly stretches its running time - in one sequence Willis and Romijn telling a story about sneaking dogs onto an airplane cuts to their editing room discussion of whether to include the anecdote - it is done with such wit and panache that it's difficult to complain about it.

		Following a deaf-mute hitman in Bangkok, Bangkok Dangerous focuses on the protagonist's life-threatening job, his traumatical memories of his childhood and his loss of hearing, and the romantic feelings he develops for a girl at a drugstore who can not stand the idea of becoming involved with a killer.
		Bangkok Dangerous is their first film and had its European premiere at the 30th International Film Festival Rotterdam as a candidate for one of the three Tiger Awards, while it had already been bought for distribution in the Netherlands.
		Bangkok Dangerous is rife with fast-edited action scenes and sensitivity for both the supernatural and the philosophy behind.

		There is a strong pull between the worlds of organised crime and films: as if the glamour, glitter and the lights of one redeem the shadowy lives and evil of the other.
		The film critic went on to add that Heung Wah Sing used to resort to force: ``Of course he used force; otherwise the stars would never have acted for him.'' But he had to admit that Wah Sing had cleaned up his act, saying: ``They act like real businessmen now.
		Early lat year the long acquiescent film industry retaliated by organising a march to show its disapproval of the triad presence in the film industry.

	Michael Asimow: Dangerous Beauty
		As in the film, a particularly venomous rival was Maffio Venier, a nephew of Franco’s patron Domenico Venier.
		Although the film does not show it, Franco struggled to raise a number of children; she had six, all by different fathers, of whom three sons survived infancy.
		In the film, Franco is accused of witchcraft, since she had obviously bewitched legions of men.

	Film Review: Dangerous Beauty
		Dangerous Beauty, from thirtysomething director Marshall Herskovitz, purports to tell the true story of Veronica Franco (Catherine McCormack), a 16th century Venetian poet who, as a popular courtesan, exercised considerable influence over the politics of this Italian city-state.
		The Honest Courtesan by biographer Margaret F. Rosenthal, on which the film was based, emphasizes Franco's intellectual accomplishments, and in the film, Veronica's mother (portrayed with grace by Jacqueline Bisset) convinces her daughter to become a courtesan by promising her access to the city's libraries.
		That is, until I saw the film's opening scenes, when I remembered that these were all male critics, and developed my own theory: the opening credits include a parade of colorfully-dressed courtesans floating in gondolas down the canals, baring their bosoms to the cheering crowd....

	Bangkok Dangerous
		Things start to fall apart when Jo is shot in the hand, Aom is brutally raped by one of her clients and when Kong falls in love and begins to realise that whate he does for a living ain't as pretty as Fon, his new girlfriend.
		Bangkok Dangerous heavily borrows plot and theme from its generic predecessors (Hong Kong gangster/hitman films), but the Pang's are not interested in simply re-staging situations.
		Using wildly divergent film stocks, camera filters, music, locations, and so on (this could be a really long list), these scenes offer some of the best examples of condensed, visceral storytelling you're likely to see outside of Hong Kong.

	LA Weekly - The Passion of the Rad
		Titled Dangerous Men, it was described on its poster as “an unforgettable suspense-mystery-drama,” yet neither the film nor its director, John S. Rad, appeared anywhere on the Internet, including the usually infallible Internet Movie Database (www.imdb.com), which indexes and cross-references nearly 500,000 titles and almost 2 million film artists.
		Dangerous Men first popped up on my radar in an e-mail from Phil Anderson, a partner in the West L.A. video store Cinefile, who himself had been alerted to the film by a single TV ad broadcast during UPN’s late-night Fear Factor reruns.
		He is, however, not the slightest bit fazed that his film — which is being revived for a single midnight screening this weekend at the Sunset 5 theater, with the possibility of more to come — may finally be finding its audience.

	Bangkok Dangerous (THAILAND 2000)
		Though Bangkok Dangerous explores the seedy underbelly of the professional assassin gig, it would be a mistake to compare (as some critics have) this Pang Brothers flick to the crime films of John Woo and Quentin Tarantino.
		Whereas the crooks of Woo's films are majestic, dark knights and the hoods of Tarantino's movies are manic pop culture junkies, the Pang brothers' killers are a different breed altogether.
		While there is one scene in Bangkok Dangerous that clearly apes a popular Chow Yun-Fat moment in Woo's A Better Tomorrow, the Oxide brothers make a nifty addition to the sequence that sets it apart from its predecessor, a touch that solidifes the brotherly bond of Kong and Joe in cinematic fashion.

	Xiibaro Reviews: Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Darkness Falls, and Empire
		Even when the film takes the more depressing side of Chuck Barris' life, the whole story is dealt with a form specially created to provoke audience sentiment for his plight.
		While his dry readings during the film show the performance of a man less interested in his performance than in the corresponding camera shot, the direction itself has an overly auspiciousness that begins to ruin some of cinematographer Newton Thomas Sigel's work.
		I just cannot help but wish that this was a different film, one that did not embrace Barris with the type of intense worship that he seems to be yearning for.

	slant // magazine.com: Film Review - Confessions of a Dangerous Mind
		Its immodest, almost cruel exploitation of "talent" could be used to expose the foolishness of no-holds-barred pop culture, the emptiness revealed beyond the curtains of that corner of the American Dream.
		Sadly, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind blows its chance to be that film, instead opting for a fantastical extrapolation of Gong Show/Dating Game creator Barris's purported moonlight job as a CIA hitman.
		(The entire film bears the hand of Donald Kaufman's revisions found in the last 30 minutes of Adaptation.) All that aside, the film is still unlikable as it can't even be bothered to provide Julia Roberts, who shows up playing a seductive (read: boring) agent Barris gets involved with, a satisfying death scene.

	Orlando Weekly - Film Review - Dangerous Beauty
		While "Dangerous Beauty" examines love as a commodity, it never fully refutes the primacy of romantic love, and loses much of its power when it overwhelmingly succumbs to it.
		The film's carefully composed, artificial sunniness (most of it was shot in studios with indirect bright light) is also a distraction, giving this enjoyable, thoughtful and often very funny film the sheen of shallowness.
		The film was made by a male and female writing-directing collaboration, and this yin-yang balance extends to their characters.

	DVD Times - Dangerous Game
		Her husband Russell (Frank's character) rejects Claire's conversion as a lie as to him the substance abuse and multiple sexual partners are a truth.
		His work outside the mainstream is characterised by an unflinching look at the dark side of human existence, grappling with themes of sin and redemption and occasionally undone by an undue emphasis on the sin part.
		Dangerous Game (which was filmed as, and initially shown as, Snake Eyes — no relation to the Brian DePalma film of 1998) is not up to that level, and has had a mixed reception.

	Confessions of a Dangerous Mind Reviews - Moviefone
		The film features the main character painstakingly lying to loved ones in order to cover up his participation in brutal crimes.
		Furthermore, parents should know that the film features many popular actors (George Clooney, Julia Roberts, and Drew Barrymore), thus increasing the chance that children are going to know about the film and want to see it.
		While we recommend this film for kids 17+, there is definitely the possibility that a mature 15- or 16-year-old could watch, understand, and appreciate the moral complexity of this film.

		This is one of my all-time favorite soundtracks (as well as one of my "desert island pick" movies), for its music perfectly evokes the film's spirit and themes by combining historically pertinant pieces by Bach, Gluck, and Handel with original compositions by George Fenton.
		Dangerous Liaisons has been a favorite movie of mine for quite some time, not only for the intricate story line...
		This soundtrack is worth having in that its not distinct from the story line, but like every soundtrack worth its salt it contributes to and adds a vibrant depth to what is on the screen.

	Bangkok Dangerous Movie Review by Anthony Leong from MediaCircus.net
		Multiple filters and film stocks are used to great effect, particularly during the film's numerous flashbacks (such as a scratchy 16mm glimpse at Kong's miserable childhood), putting even multimedia junkies like Oliver Stone ("Any Given Sunday") to shame.
		The film also has the typical final shootout in a large building (in this case, a competently choreographed warehouse dustup) that is capped off by a terrific standoff between Kong and the police.
		As they face each other in the rain, the film speed slows down enough for the audience to see the raindrops as perfect spheres that gently float to the ground-- an effect that is both eloquent and mesmerizing.

	Amazon.com: Dangerous (1935) : Video (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		"Dangerous" provides a great role for Davis, and the character of Joyce Heath allows her to portray a range of powerful emotions--she's a drunk, a failure, a temptress, and finally, a redeemed soul who learns to face and fight her demons.
		The film deteriorates into soap opera towards the end but it is still worthwhile to view Davis, a new kind of actress in 1935, working very hard to turn melodrama into legitimate emotion.
		However, throughout the film she reminds him that nothing good ever comes of the men in her life, a foreshadowing of the events to come.

	"ON THE PHONE WITH JENA MALONE": Film Freak Central Interviews Jena Malone, Star of The Dangerous Lives of ...
		Perhaps, like me, you're a big fan of Donnie Darko, to which she brings the balance of calm--she is the film's earthy centre.
		The film has a strange intertextual relationship to Donnie Darko with the backstory of Malone's Margie Flynn, plus it's interspersed with animated sequences by "Spawn" creator and toy guru Todd McFarlane, and the picture foists William Blake on the unsuspecting youth demo.
		Really producing a film is finding something, taking it from conception and then seeing it visualized, and it's a long, strenuous process and you have to be really ready for it.

	Teleport City's DVD Journals: Bangkok Dangerous
		Unless it was blatantly ripped off from another film (I still debate with myself whether that's the case with the opening scenes of the Dawn of the Dead remake and the earlier Night of the Comet), or if it's really that bad of a clichÃ© that it just galls the mind, then okay.
		Naturally, in a film with the fairly slick visual style that this one employs, he's also a pretty good one.
		The film opens with him picking off some guy in a public bathroom, and then he leaves and heads out to a strip club.

	This Film is Dangerous: A Celebration of Nitrate Film
		The danger and volatility of nitrate film has led to some remarkable stories and tall tales throughout the years, including some that have reached the proportion of myth.
		The films were stored in the swimming pool in 1929, discovered in 1978, and by 1984, transferred to safety acetate with the help of the Library of Congress.
		In “A Melody Lost in 1939” writer Sakari Toiviainen recounts the efforts of Finnish film researcher Lauri Tykkyläinen in tracking down and restoring the film legacy of the Finnish director Nyrki Tapiovaara, who died at the young age of 28 in 1940 during the Winter War.

		Dangerous Moves takes us inside the tortured psyches of an ailing Grandmaster and his bold, flashy challenger as they battle in Geneva for the world championship crown.
		At every level, the film seems to say, the universe is a chess game, and each move can have dangerous ramifications.
		Producer's Perspective is a brief five-minute interview with Swiss producer Arthur Cohn, the man behind such enduring and acclaimed films as The Garden of the Finzi-Continis, Black and White in Color and Central Station.

	CHUD.com - Cinematic Happenings Under Development
		Sure, this film is about a fictional fascist state that denies its people basic liberties and makes them live in fear, and sure it’s set in the London of the future, but there’s no hiding the fact that the film’s timeline is one that begins today.
		The film is being very specific — the policies that we are pursuing have one end-point, and that is a society where our basic freedoms are curbed for supposed security and comfortable routine.
		V is a film that confronts the lie of modern conservatism, showing that it’s not a movement about individual liberty and smaller government — if anything, it’s quite the exact opposite.
