You know, sometimes, before watching a classic, you build up some huge expectations but when you finally watch the damned thing, especially after waiting for so many years, the end-result can let you down a little bit. Well, it didn't happen with this movie, that's for sure. Indeed, I kept hearing about it for many years and, finally, I got my hands on it and I was mesmerized from the beginning un... read more

Phenomenal Movie Trailers (11 movies items)

" Any trailer that has Ennio Morricone's music in it is bound to capture attention, especially when it's his best score. At the same time, I think the narrator really lends his gravitas to this film. Few can do an amazing job of breaking down the film into a few words so eloquently."
