Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl crossed the Pacific ocean in a balsa wood raft in 1947, together with five men, to prove that South Americans already back in pre-Columbian times could have crossed the sea and settle on Polynesian islands. After gathering financing for the trip with loans and donations, they set off on an epic 101 day-long journey across 8,000 kilometers, all while the world was watching.

Kon-Tiki is a widescreen man-against-nature epic, beautifully shot and boasting seamless, stunning visual effects. Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer
"Kon-Tiki" is awesome in the true sense of the word: You sit in awe of the bravery, audacity, stupidity and natural power on display. Ah, to imagine and dream. And to go forth. Tom Long-Detroit News
How much is fiction and how much is deliberate confusion? John Hartl-Seattle Times
Upbeat and less exciting than you might wish, though it could be a good adventure film for older kids. Rafer Guzman-Newsday
A thrilling introduction to one of the more remarkable adventures of the post-World War II world. Connie Ogle-Miami Herald
The characters don't register as much more than genre archetypes, but that doesn't spoil the fun, since the filmmakers re-create the journey in such vivid detail. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader
With a man-against-the-elements adventure like this one, the emphasis is, and should be, largely on spectacular depiction of the environment, and [the] directors...make use of the biggest budget yet afforded to a Norwegian film... [Blu-ray] Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews
Not only is it nicely paced, but it features gripping moments of intensity, as well as some impressive visual effects. Mike Scott-Times-Picayune
This unconventionally thrilling adaptation of the memoir by Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl compensates with visual flair what it lacks in intimate details. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
It's an absorbing and often lyrical piece of storytelling that doesn't overembellish the facts or rely on a pumped-up score or whiplash editing to heighten the dramatic action. Steve Davis-Austin Chronicle
"Kon-Tiki" has a grand, old-fashioned feel - a man-against-nature adventure that feels like it was made in - not just set in - the optimistic post-World War II era. Cathy Jakicic-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
An adventure film driven by curiosity Marty Mapes-Movie Habit
a credible account John A. Nesbit-Old School Reviews
Astonishing adventure - filmed simultaneously in Norwegian and in English. Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate
This is not simply a faithful recreation or hagiographic biopic, but rather widens the focus to include the toll Heyerdahl's obsession. James Croot-Flicks.co.nz
The film unfolds with earnest majesty, characterized by sweeping camera moves (shot by Geir Hartly Andreassen) and orchestra swells. But the sheer beauty also creates distance. Jon Niccum-Kansas City Star
Has similar sea-going survival thrills as Life of Pi, but somehow means more. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
It all combines to create a great true-life adventure of a type no longer seen in the world. Chris Knight-National Post
A ROYAL AFFAIR is the true story of an ordinary man who wins the queen's heart and starts a revolution. Centering on the intriguing love triangle between the ever more insane Danish King Christian VII, the royal physician who is a man of enlightenment and idealism Struensee and the young but strong Queen Caroline Mathilda, A ROYAL AFFAIR is the gripping tale of brave idealists who risk everything in their pursuit of freedom for their people.(c) Magnolia Pictures R If You Like this movie you can streaming A Royal Affair movie without downloading HERE

For all its incident, A Royal Affair is slow and picturesquely framed - more of a languorously animated coffee-table book than a gripping drama. Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail
The film ends not on a happy note, naturally, but on a moment of hope. Love may not conquer all, but it has a power all its own. Connie Ogle-Miami Herald
Although the brazen lovers, bellicose ministers and backstabbing handmaidens are familiar elements, the film is so handsomely mounted that we happily endure the ride until the turning of the screws in the tragic last act. Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Perhaps there's only so much to be done with a costume drama about illicit affairs and would-be coups. Michael Nordine-L.A. Weekly
What a piece of work is this historical drama. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
A Royal Affair covers plenty of stately ground, all in good time. Claudia Puig-USA Today
A well-crafted drama about three flawed individuals who changed the course of history in Denmark. John Hanlon-Big Hollywood
Out of some dry lines, Shakespearean allusions, and its playing with statecraft as stagecraft, this slowly emerges as more than just some ruffle-collared, frilly-cuffed throne-porn-there's a sharp quill and glinting eye behind the gilt-edged curtain. Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada)
The performances are powerful and the set pieces are exquisite, but the conclusion will leave you feeling enormously agitated thanks to what seems like the encouragement of thickheadedness. Chris Sawin-Examiner.com
Denmark's Oscar nominee is a fact-inspired historical melodrama, but it's intriguing, elegantly shot, and well acted by the actors forming the romantic triangle. Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com
The heady mix of power, politics, ideology, romance and corsets is a rare, royal feast. Chris Knight-National Post
It's all high-drama and in the hands of director Arcel, every little knot in this detailed needlepoint is handled to period perfection. Katherine Monk-Canada.com
A sumptuous slice of period drama and real-life palace intrigue. Mike Scott-Times-Picayune
...a splendid demonstration of the old adage that political films are really not about the time they are set in, but the time in which they are made. Sarah Boslaugh-PopMatters
Gorgeously photographed if familiarly constructed, it's more or less catnip for urban foreign film aficionados and the NPR set, breathing life into period piece lust and intrigue. Brent Simon-Shockya.com
The characters in the story are interesting, even if they are not quite as interesting as the historical people on which the characters in this film are based. Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope
In the immortal words of King Louis XVI -- or was it Mel Brooks? -- it's good to be the king. Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing
Despite the presence of illicit sex, insanity, a smallpox epidemic and a climactic double beheading, this is a rather bloodless 'Affair.' John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
Arcel directs with sympathy for all three of the main characters and doesn't make pure villains of the others. Lawrence Toppman-Charlotte Observer
It is certainly competent, lovely to look at, but leaves little lasting impression. Kimberley Jones-Austin Chronicle
Sometimes falling in love can really change the world or at least the fate of a nation. Dan Lybarger-KC Active

Jimmy also gets his relatives, the Savage brothers (Adam Nelson and Robert Wahlberg), to conduct an investigation of their own. Jimmy and Sean both start to suspect their old pal, Dave Boyle (Tim Robbins), who lives a quiet life with his wife Celeste (Marcia Gay Harden) but harbors some disturbing secrets. Clint Eastwood won a Golden Coach for Mystic River at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi If You Like this movie you can streaming Mystic River movie without downloading HERE

It is in many ways Eastwood's tightest movie for some time, and certainly his darkest since Unforgiven; indeed, the ending offers as corrosive an assessment of the limits of American justice as anything in his career. Geoff Andrew-Time Out
Sean Penn is so frighteningly good in this movie that he outdoes even the best of his earlier work. Peter Rainer-New York Magazine
Works as a straight-up detective story, and the acting is often breathtaking. Bill Muller-Arizona Republic
Too depressing to fill audiences with delight, but it does seem to validate questionable attitudes, especially an indifference to the suffering of innocent people and a willingness to shoot first and ask questions later. Jonathan Rosenbaum-Chicago Reader
Solid, rarely showy performances, meticulously recreated detective work and moments of pure unadulterated grief accent this whodunit, a movie that will have those who haven't read the book fooled for much of its length. Roger Moore-Orlando Sentinel
Contains so many layers that you'll want to see it more than once. It's one for the memory books. Philip Wuntch-Dallas Morning News
The entire cast did a phenomenal job, resisting the urge to overact too much, which is what you get for a film like this. Kevin Carr-7M Pictures
Powerful performances in graphic story. Only 16+. Nell Minow-Common Sense Media
American drama doesn't get any more meaty and muscular than this. Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
To say this is well-acted would be an understatement punishable by law; the acting talent during the film is just magnificent to watch as we see a great cast of great actors... Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed
The performances are uniformly superb. Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com
Good, occasionally powerful noir that's been overhyped. Christopher Smith-Bangor Daily News (Maine)
Mystic falters occasionally, but I respect its effort and I'm happy to see Mr. Eastwood growing as a director. Joe Lozito-Big Picture Big Sound
While not quite the equal of the novel, it's more complex, emotionally-charged and better acted than the average Hollywood thriller. Alan Morrison-Empire Magazine
With characters that don't belong in the film and resolutions that seem mere fantasy, Mystic River never surpasses adequacy. Wesley Lovell-Cinema Sight
A sprawling story that benefits from Eastwood's stripped-down approach. There are no jive talking Tarantino exchanges here, and no crowd-pleasing pyrotechnics. KJ Doughton-Film Threat
This is one of the finer dramas to come down the pike in some time. Bill Clark-FromTheBalcony
The film births wonderful performances from all three lead actors, as well as Marcia Gay Harden, who's palpable in preternatural ways, Thomas Guiry as the boy in love with Jimmy's daughter, and virtually everyone else with a strip of film time. Jon Lap-Apollo Guide
It's a stately, handsome-looking studio drama that, for me, never really became emotionally or intellectually involving. Ethan Alter-NYC Film Critic
... frustratingly humorless, harsh, and hollow, lacking the cohesiveness, color and convincing characterization of Eastwood's masterpiece Unforgiven. Jeffrey Overstreet-Looking Closer
Penn and Robbins, especially, are absolutely riveting in this haunting tale of lives lost. Steve Crum-Kansas City Kansan
This is an involving movie that held my interest for all but the last five of its 137-minute running time, despite an ending that seems to tolerate murder and vigilante justice. Tony Medley-tonymedley.com
Methodical, riveting and emotionally charged. Mark Sells-Oregon Herald
A fine movie but not the masterpiece you've heard. Mark Robison-Reno Gazette-Journal

Even though the film drags, the magic of Bollywood is that this story's muddle of twists only clarifies the urgency behind the undying desires of all concerned parties. Nicolas Rapold-New York Times
A grand cinematic work boasting all the pros and cons of the genre, this unashamedly cornball star-vehicle for three of India's hottest talents is a fitting swansong for the late filmmaker. Simon Foster-sbs.com.au
